Why do I watch porn/eat meat when I’m angry/stressed?
I never liked porn(it’s so fake and degrading). I’d say it’s usually more of a turn-off than a turn-on. For some reason when I’m angry or stressed, I get this urge to look up porn. I click on the videos I find the most distasteful. I suspect it’s just the urge to self-sabatoge. I’m really not sure. I’m also a vegetarian and don’t partcularly enjoy the taste of meat but will deliberately seek it out when I’m angry. I’m not talking about tasteful lean meats either, I want beef. None of this really makes me feel any better. Why do I get these things? I usually resist because it is rediculous but give in every once in a while. I know there must be a deeper reason. I just can’t think of why.
Example of angry splurge:
Retreating into my room on a particularly stressful day, closing blinds and sitting cross legged on my bed with my laptop. Watching distasteful porn on silent while listening to william tell overature on loud. Eating a subway sandwitch with salami.
Why?
Food, sexual stimulation, and drugs are all made up of substances that release a good feeling in a person. So by combining two of those natural pleasing substances yo will become slightly or greatly better once you have that intake.Different foods effect you in varying ways, and different people have different reactions based on their chemical composition. Many of the meats purchased at grocery stores come from animals that were “enhanced” with hormones, and hormones definitely effect one’s mood. The Protein/Carbohydrate/Fat ratios in any food (animal or plant) also effect mood. People who are often depressed seek foods composed of carbohydrates and sugar, although this is only for depressed patients who refuse to eat or have a loss in appetite. Perhaps something in meat that you crave has a certain substance that your body craves in order to balance your stressful situation. So by eating meat you are able to relief some of the stress that was caused. By watching porno a person can double or just enhance the ‘good feeling’ effect by adding sensual sexual images.
It’s just the mind and body seeking stress relievers for a bad crappy day. I think it’s rather normal some people only seek drugs to ease their current moods and attempt to make the best of it with any available resource.
