If you watch porn often you get your brain damaged?

No. Even if it could damage your brain, sex would have a worse effect then.
Effects of masturbation varies from person to person, but it'll never damage someone's mind.

Yes. Go to NoFap.

I recommend you to try nofap just to try it. I did for like 100 days and it definetly had an effect on me but I didn't get the ridicculous super powers that the reddit forum talk about. You're a little more confident around women (if you want to be, you have to want to) and sex feels a lot better

however, even though I have started fapping again I don't use porn nowdays. It ruins sex in the sense of that you forget to be attracted to the situation rather than the appearance of the person you're fucking.

I usually try to not fap for a couple of days before having good sex in order to elevate the sex a little bit.

Just my 2 cents

Wrong. Coolidge effect and also natural neurological tolerance mechanics means that yes, [internet] porn will fuck you up if you use heavily and for a long time.

Porn is not like sex. Porn has essentially unlimited novelty, and this is what maintains the extreme pleasure. The only real life analogue to porn is if you had a dedicated harem of hundreds of sexual partners, and switched them out every few seconds during sex.

If you keep using internet porn, the above scenario and its associated stimulation levels is basically what your brain will get used to, and what itll only respond to.
Further, dopamine receptors get disabled, which makes you less reactive to any standard dopamine reward-based neural functions. In other words, it's physically harder to feel motivation.

This is basically how some drugs work.

Porn is essentially a drug.

yes. porn has negative mental impacts and this has been proven

If 4chan's specialized porn boards and ever narrowing niche porn threads are to go by, then yes.

That's not including 4chan's incredible levels of bitterness.

It can fuck you up

This so much. I ruined a thing I going with a girl because I couldn't bring myself to the present moment and just give it to her. Porn can get you addicted easy cums and throw your pleasure reward center out of whack
