Many addictions have similar roots: behaviors or substances that help create temporary moments of pleasure to help us avoid real world pains and traumas.

In this first part of our interview, Jeremy shares how his personal addiction to pornography led to an existential moment of crisis, helping him to realize that his path was not leading towards his happiness; rather, his habit of pornography was contributing towards being unhappy and unfulfilled.
