What if they're all the same problem?
Losing focus. Feeling distant. Sleeping poorly. For many people, it all comes back to the same cycle.
Focus
Relationships
Stress
Motivation
Control
Sleep
Your mind keeps wandering
You sit down to work, study, or relax. Before long, your attention has drifted somewhere else.
Common signs
Thinking about porn when you should be focusing
Reaching for your phone without thinking
Finding it harder to stay present and concentrate
Intimacy feels harder than it should.
You care about your partner. But being present, connected or intimate doesn’t feel as natural as it once did.
Common signs
Taking forever to finish, or not at all
Choosing your phone over your partner
Intimacy feels less natural or takes more effort
It becomes your go-to escape.
Stress, boredom or difficult emotions become the trigger. Before long, you’re reaching for porn without even thinking about it.
Common signs
You reach for it to unwind
It feels more like a habit than a choice
You struggle to sit with difficult emotions
You're losing motivation.
The things that matter still matter. They just feel harder to start, and even harder to finish.
Common signs
Putting important things off
Struggling to find the drive to get started
Watching your goals slip further away
It stopped being a choice.
You mean to stop. But before you know it, you’re doing it again, even when you don’t want to.
Common signs
Needing more extreme material to feel anything
You keep saying, ‘This is the last time.’
Regretting it, then doing it again.
Your nights don't end when you want them to.
You tell yourself you’ll be in bed soon. Before you know it, it’s 2am.
Common signs
Staying up later than you planned
Lying awake long after you’ve stopped
Waking up tired and low on energy
Sound familiar?
Take our free 2-minute assessment to understand whether pornography may be affecting your life, and what you can do about it.
You don’t have a willpower problem.
When urges become automatic, trying harder isn’t always enough. The good news is that habits can change.
1
It’s not a lack of motivation.
Most people genuinely want to stop. The challenge is what happens when an urge takes over.
2
Habits become automatic.
Over time, certain situations and routines can trigger urges before you’ve had time to think.
3
Treatment interrupts the cycle.
When appropriate, clinician-led treatment can reduce the intensity of urges, making them easier to manage.
4
You feel back in control.
With quieter urges, it becomes easier to pause, choose differently, and spend more time on what matters (whole thing replacement).

Member on breaking the cycle
“I wasn’t expecting miracles. I just wanted to get a better handle on it. It’s helped more than I thought it would.”

FAQs
Your questions answered
Who is treatment designed for?
Treatment may be suitable for adults (18+) in the UK who feel their porn use is becoming hard to control, or is affecting areas of life like focus, relationships, confidence, mood or motivation. A clinician decides what’s appropriate in each case.
Do I need to quit porn completely?
No. This isn’t built around shame, guilt, or strict rules. For many people the goal is getting back control and choice rather than total abstinence.
What if I'm not sure my use is a problem?
Many people aren’t, and you don’t need a label to look into it. If you keep doing something you’d rather not, or spend more time on it than you’d like, the free assessment is a private way to see where you stand. There’s no obligation to go any further.
What if I've tried to stop before?
You’re not alone, most people come to Normal after willpower, blockers or accountability apps haven’t lasted. That isn’t you falling; it’s how compulsive patterns work, which is why a combined clinical and behavioural approach can help where going it alone hasn’t.
What happens if I'm not approved?
Every assessment is reviewed by a UK-registered clinician. If treatment isn’t right or safe for you, nothing is prescribed and you aren’t charged for treatment. They may point you towards other support that fits your situation better.
What is naltrexone?
Naltrexone is a prescription medication that has been used in addiction treatment for many years, and may help reduce the intensity of compulsive urges. For compulsive sexual behaviour it’s used off-label where a clinician judges it appropriate. At Normal it’s only ever prescribed by a UK-registered clinician, after an assessment, as part of a broader plan.
How does it work?
Naltrexone acts on some of the brain’s reward and reinforcement signalling. The idea is that, over time, urges may feel less intense and easier to step back from. It doesn’t ‘cure’ anything on its own. It’s meant to make the behavioural side of change more achievable.
How long does it take to see results?
It varies a lot from person to person, and there’s no guaranteed timeline. Some people notice changes within a few weeks; for others it takes longer, or works best alongside our behavioural programme. Your clinician will talk through what’s realistic for you.
Are there any side effects?
As with any medication, side effects are possible. They can include nausea, headache, tiredness or dizziness, and are often mild and temporary, especially when starting out. Your clinician reviews your health, history and any risks before anything is prescribed, and you should always read the patient information leaflet.
Is naltrexone addictive?
No. Naltrexone is not considered addictive and does not cause dependence.
Will this affect my sex drive or erections?
It isn’t intended to reduce your sex drive. The goal is to ease compulsive urges while supporting a healthier relationship with sex and intimacy. That said, some people do notice changes in libido or arousal, so raise it in your assessment. It’s exactly the kind of thing your clinician will take into account.
Is naltrexone safe?
Naltrexone has a long track record and is generally considered well-tolerated when prescribed and monitored appropriately. It isn’t suitable for everyone, and shouldn’t be taken alongside certain medications or conditions, which is why a clinician reviews your health and history first. Every assessment is reviewed individually to check it’s suitable for you.
Why does Normal use naltrexone?
It has been used for many years in addiction medicine, and studied across a range of compulsive and reward-driven behaviours. There’s growing, though still early, clinical interest in using it to help reduce the pull of compulsive urges, within a control-focused, harm-reduction approach rather than shame.
While it isn’t specifically licensed in the UK for compulsive porn use, clinicians may prescribe it when they believe it is an appropriate treatment option for an individual patient.
How does the online support work?
Alongside the medical side, you get Norm, our support app, there whenever you need it, day or night. Norm draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help you understand the triggers behind your porn use, gives you practical tools to ride out an urge in the moment, and tracks your progress over time. When you want a human, you can reach our team through secure messaging. The medical side helps take the edge off the urges; the support is where the lasting change happens.
Is Normal legitimate?
Yes. Normal is a private UK healthcare service. Every prescription is reviewed by a UK-registered clinician and dispensed through regulated UK pharmacy partners.
Is treatment prescribed by licensed clinicians?
Always. Only UK-registered clinicians can assess you and prescribe, and medication is only ever sent when a clinician decides it’s safe and appropriate for you.
Is this private?
Yes. Your information is encrypted and handled under UK data-protection law, and never sold. Any medication arrives in plain, unbranded packaging with nothing on the outside indicating what’s inside.
How discreet is delivery?
Any medication arrives in plain, unbranded packaging, with nothing on the outside indicating what’s inside or who it’s from.
Will my GP be informed?
Only with your consent. Sharing with your GP can be good for your overall care, but it’s your choice, and we’ll discuss it with you rather than go behind your back. In rare situations involving a serious risk to safety, a clinician may have a professional or legal obligation to share, and they can explain how that works.
When does Normal launch?
Normal launches in September 2026. Until then, take the 2 minute test to see where you stand and join the waitlist. We’ll email you the moment your place opens.
What do I get by joining the waitlist?
Your free 2 minute impact assessment with instant results, a reserved place on the waitlist, and an email the moment we open in September 2026. There’s no cost and no obligation to go any further.
How does the assessment work?
You answer a short, private online assessment about your health, your symptoms and your goals. A UK-registered clinician reviews your responses and decides whether treatment is appropriate, including whether it’s right for you at all.
What happens after I'm approved?
If treatment is suitable, your plan and any prescribed medication are arranged and delivered discreetly to your door. You also get access to Norm, our ongoing support app, plus secure messaging with your clinical team.
What's included in my plan?
Typically your clinical assessment and reviews, any prescribed medication, medication delivery, and ongoing support through Norm, our support app. The exact details depend on what’s right for you, and everything is managed online from start to finish.
How much does it cost?
The assessment is free. You only pay if a clinician approves treatment and you choose to go ahead, from £149 a month. You’ll always see the full price before you complete your order.
