In this video, Dr. Trish Leigh explains why edging harms your brain even more than watching pornography. She reveals the damaging effects this practice has on your neurochemistry and mental health.
What is edging?
Edging is one of the worst things you can do to your brain. It’s more harmful than simply watching pornography. Here’s how it works: you open multiple tabs and linger in a heightened state of arousal. You stimulate your brain with rising dopamine levels while avoiding orgasm. This process causes your brain to flood with moderate but increasing levels of dopamine over time.
Each time you delay climax, your brain stays in this altered state. Many people escalate the intensity by adding more tabs or switching content. In doing so, they train their brains to depend on prolonged artificial stimulation.
Some individuals edge for a single session. Others stretch it out for days, sometimes even a week. This extended stimulation rewires your brain chemistry. Over time, your dopamine system becomes desensitized. That’s what makes edging so dangerous: it disrupts your brain’s natural balance and damages its ability to function normally.
