Denial Check

Focus on science-based, secular approaches to recovery. Emphasize neuroscience, psychology, habit formation, and evidence-based techniques. Avoid religious or spiritual frameworks.

I think I might be in denial about my porn use. Help me examine my common justifications honestly.

Here are things I tell myself - push back on each one and help me see if they're valid or just rationalization:
1. "Everyone watches porn, it's normal"
2. "I can stop whenever I want"
3. "It doesn't affect my relationship"
4. "It's better than cheating"
5. "I'm not hurting anyone"

Be direct but not harsh. Help me see my blind spots.
