Importantly, at their core, the criteria describe the relationship between sexual distress or sexual impulses and the ability to control oneself sexually. Without this being specifically named in any way, this description reflects one of the most important theories in clinical sexual science — the Dual Control Model [32<ref>Bancroft, J. & Vukadinovic, Z. Sexual addiction, sexual compulsivity, sexual impulsivity, or what? Toward a theoretical model. J. Sex. Res. 41, 225–234 (2004).</ref>,33<ref>Rettenberger, M., Klein, V. & Briken, P. The relationship between hypersexual behavior, sexual excitation, sexual inhibition, and personality traits. Arch. Sex. Behav. 45, 219–233 (2016).</ref>]. However, temporal persistence and negative consequences have to be part of the clinical picture in order for it to be categorized as a disorder2. Furthermore, the negative consequences should not be due to moral or religious attitudes that are hostile to sexuality, as such attitudes cannot be the basis of a psychiatric disorder2.

 * We previously noted the widespread application of dual-process models in contemporary psychology (Loewenstein & O’Donoghue, 2007)<ref>Loewenstein, G., & O’Donoghue, T. (2015). The heat of the moment: Modeling interactions between affect and deliberation. https://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/features/dec-0000029.pdf</ref>. The dual control model of sexual response and the dual-process model of human behavior share several traits. The dual control model describes response as a weighted relationship between sexual excitation and inhibition (Janssen & Bancroft, 2007)<ref>Janssen, E., & Bancroft, J. (2007).

 ** Psychotherapy is unlikely to affect a client’s capacity for sexual excitation, but it can modulate the client’s sexual inhibition levels through reappraisal of sexual- performance threats or consequences. We hypothesize that sexual health can be improved by enhancing client self-regulation ingredients to rebalance the sexual excitation and inhibition interaction. Men with self-regulation deficits and higher than average sexual excitation levels are more likely to make an in-the-moment decision that contradicts their sexual and relationship agreements. For instance, people with low traits for self-control also report having low dispositional sexual restraint (Gailliot et al., 2007).

	As Briken note, Urge Surfing and others skills can reduce Excitation. Since it works like a dimmer switch (Perelman), all you need to do is to reduce it a bit so that the balance doesn't tip. Also thinking about the negative consequences may be able to increase inhibition as in Douglas Braun et al cited above. Each side of scale includes both Mental & Physical. Also Background factors (like availability of pornography can be changed). @Editor.		As Briken note, Urge Surfing and others skills can reduce Excitation.

		+	From @Florin:
		+
		+	I would advise using a simplified and practical form of the model for the members such as "Prevent" (for inhibition) and "Promote" (for managing excitation) with practical advice such as below
		+
		+	''Prevent (inhibition)''
		+
		+	* remember how you're going to feel after you watch porn
		+	* remember that porn can be addictive: you will want more of it and will get out of your control the more you use it
		+	* remind yourself of your commitment to staying clean; remember your progress so far
		+	* remember a past time when you were able to resist the urge.
		+
		+	''Promote (excitation)''
		+
		+	* use better ways to deal with stress: take deep breaths for 30 seconds, stretch for a minute
		+
		+	* use better ways to feel good: watch a comedy, call a good friend, eat something that you like, verbally praise yourself for your ability to resist urges.
		+
		+	* Use both prevention and promotion, keep doing what works.
