Dear Friend,

It is well documented in the addiction field that if you show an addict something related to their addiction (what scientists call a 

“cue”

) they would

pay more attention

to the cue than a non-addict.

This makes sense, as addicts tend to think about and pursue their addiction so often that they eventually neglect responsibilities and lose interest in other things essential for health and wellbeing. 

Put simply, an addict’s brain “values” their addiction over everything else in life, so they give it more attention. 

Researchers at Cambridge University investigated whether or not

individuals with compulsive sexual behavior (compulsive pornography use) would pay greater attention to sexually explicit cues 

compared to healthy controls, similar to how drug addicts pay greater attention to cues associated with their addiction.  

Read about what the researchers discovered in this new blog!

Sincerely,
