Is nofap a meme I know this comes up a lot but I've gone 30+ days and feel the same and being a virgin I know nothing...

It's one of the many things you should be doing if you're trying to improve yourself. People obsess over timelines and what counts and what doesn't, but the bottom line is that fapping less and watching less porn will make you look for new outlets for your sexual energy.

Have no fear sauce is here imgur.com/a/2qVOU

Listen kid, masturbation is normal and natural and actually healthy so long as it's done in moderation which pretty much goes for everything anyway. So YES, it's another stupid troll-meme and you should disregard it.

Now: if you're jacking off several times a day every single day and can't stop yourself, then you have a problem and need to take a step back from it. But swearing off masturbation completely will actually hurt you in the long run, so read the above paragraph again if you just don't get it.

>Veeky Forums trolls: setting back sexual and emotional health by at least 50 years

Thank you, user

I've done nofap, nothing changed, it's all in your head, you can use it as an excuse to approach girls more or whatever, but it's not the real reason
And you can just not look at porn, not masturbating at all is dumb

Yes, it's a fucking meme.

If you think masturbation is holding you back, then you're just looking for an easy excuse for your failures.

>beta the post

Brehs you think Arnold sat in his room jacking it back in the day lmao

He could walk outside approach and fuck any woman he wanted too

>porn
Fucking horrible for your mind
>fapping
It might not actually be bad for you but it's definitely a loser activity

Haven't beat off in 24 hours now.

Longest I've gone before is a month. The only 'superpowers' I noticed was that I needed less sleep and felt less grubby.

Honestly though the internet is a bigger problem than overmasturbation.

Limiting your time online > NoFap

My dick thank you

Here's my two cents:
I did nofap fo 90-or-something days, did feel more energetic, but also more agitated. By the end of it I had moments of insomnia (also, guy with high libido here). If you can't get it up from too much jacking, stop for a couple of days. Otherwise, there's not much use to nofap imho, OP

Dat face. No fap making your standards drop severely.

Would you stay in your room and watch someone else fuck or go and do it yourself?

Yes, nofap is a fucking meme.

As already stated, theres nothing wrong with jerking it. (unless you have a problem and need to do it several times a day every day)

NoPorn is the shit tho. Porn has no place in your life and it leads nowhere.

Personally, after dropping porn (and therefore drastically reducing the times i masturbated) I got some of those cringy-meme 'superpowers' people claim to get on nofap.

>need A LOT less sleep
>shiny skin
>lifts went up
>don't feel so shit all the time
>can concentrate

Seriously mayne. Jack off once-twice a week and drop pr0n for good.

I would put my scooper in her pooper

nofap isn't a meme. if you're not doing it for the (debatable) psychological benefits, do it just for the extra time you get. all that time you spent tugging your dick could be spent doing something productive, or bettering yourself.

my dick is crying tears of joy

>nofap is bullshit
>but noporn is totally valid

Never understood this mindset. Elaborate.

>watching some dude fuck a girl and being watching in the corner masturbating

literally conditioning your mind for cuckoldry

It's not jackin' it that's the problem, it's over-stimulation from freely available internet porn

Use it or lose it, if you spend retardedly long amounts of time not masturbating like over 30 days you'll end up with less testosterone, not more. "Your Brain on Porn" is a bullshit trash science site.

news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/02/0222_060222_sex.html

>"After three months without sex, which is not so uncommon for some athletes, testosterone dramatically drops to levels close to children's levels," he said. "Do you think this may be useful for a boxer?"

It's better for your mental health. Some guys addicted to fap and porn can't get hard with real grills.

I like how nofap threads have the hottest bitches as their as their cover.

You could argue the same for the internet as a whole. As long as you're on here, you're making yourself prone to overstimulation.

>sitting on your toilet fantasizing about putting your dick inside the hot girl you saw at the gym instead of just approaching her and going for it

Literally conditioning your mind for becoming a beta

>hitting on some girl at the gym and running the risk of creating an awkward environment where you should be focused on your routine

pleb

Idk what to believe anymore. Fapping multiple times a day is bad. not fapping for a full week gives you a small gain of testosterone on the 7th day according to some study. For me personally, not fapping for a while (like 5 days) makes me cum weird chunky liquid which would be gross as hell if thats what came out when i got with the next girl. And then theres a study that says fapping 3-4 times a week is ideal for prostate health.

>roastie

dropped

She says no

Alright have a nice day

Go right back to lifting, who gives a fuxk how is it gonna be awkward if she says no? How stupid are you

>omg I asked a girl out and she said no better cancel my gym membership

No internet is a good point. I think a lot of what makes me unsocial is that I can just go on Veeky Forums or leddit and get pseudo social interaction. When the internet is down I find myself wandering the house do things and even wanting to talk to my family members.

Internet surfing is more destructive than masturbation.

At least with fapping there's a release. Internet browsing you just keep going, there's no end.

You aren't gonna get monster gains or some shit as soon as you start no fap but I guarantee you will see some mental ones if you keep it up for a while.

Most of the people that deny no fap don't have the willpower to do it in the first place. It's not gonna hurt you so there is literally no reason not to just try it for a month. If you can't do that then you have no place in refuting it.

...

>falling for meme advice that has no scientific evidence that it works

>no proof it works so it must not work

Steroids weren't always proven effective
Creatine wasn't always proven effective
Lifting 7x a week no rest days wasn't always proven ineffective
HFCS wasn't always proven bad for you

Bruh you retarded

What do I do instead of surfing the web?

What do I do in between sets (homegym) instead of looking at porn?

>tfw no friends
>tfw spend all free time when not working or lifting in front of my computer at home

>Think of it this way, growing up you've probably watched horrific violence across all sorts of media to the point where you could see a dude getting cut in half and probably not have much of a reaction.

Holy shit, user. Seek help. If I saw that, it would fuck me up for life. What the hell do you spend your time watching? Even the thought of torture in the abstract makes my stomach turn.

/thread

>masturbation is normal and natural and actually healthy

Todayvwas day 4, was planning on 7 days, and i came in my sleep. Was dreaming about jerking off ,lmao.

Would you rather let 12 year olds fuck each other?

Yeah except the benefits of masturbation are proven, lurk moar.

>benefits

Like what your body going into literal cuck relaxed mode because it thinks you just mated with a female despite the fact you just came all over your bathroom tile floor to a video of a trap getting railed in the ass by another man

Definitely some benefits in there somewhere

not being stressed is pretty good i would say

>fuck me man relationship problems
>big paper due on Monday
>working overtime everyday
>depressed as fuck
>never gonna find a gf
>body looks like shit

Oh well better play with my dick and not actually work on fixing my issues that cause stress ;^)

Your talking about porn, fapping is natural

Nah bruh

Putting your dick into a vagina and slamming that shit into oblivion is natural

Fapping is what the cucks who couldn't find a girl that would let fuck them invented so they didn't feel left out

what about working on the shit that make us stressed and fapping ?

Nice strawman.

Why are you defending questionable research and little scientific evidence to support this position? Why are you so invested in not wanking?

Is this so you and your m8s on stormfront can find something else in your pathetic world to feel smug about...

Why can't you do both? Are you really this backward.

Being stressed constantly negates any possible gains

All I have to say is this.

Quitting porn while still masturbating every other day or so cured by ED.

Now I'm actually able to have sex with real women.

>it's questionable because i say it's questionable

Or I can work out, study and also give it a good jerk afterwards.

plz respond

>games
isn't this just as bad as surfing the web?

I have no opinion on not masterbating but.. You are saying that watching a lot of violence makes it less real and intense as Porn would for sex.
I'm not sure about you, I have seen a lot of violence in movies, but if you see some one shot right in front of you, it's going to have profound effects on your mental health.

>tfw I saw a guy get runover and his leg was mangled and falling off
>didn't even blink or feel anything

Chad gets AIDS and fucking dies.

>go do something productive

Like wasting your time fucking a broad every time your horny?
You honestly sound like some beta basement dweller that's trying to live vicariously through a made up persona.
Sometimes you just gotta nut and move on with it

>Think of it this way, growing up you've probably watched horrific violence across all sorts of media to the point where you could see a dude getting cut in half and probably not have much of a reaction. Sex is the same way.
Literally retarded.

A) you don't have a conscious physical engagement occurring with the violent imagery.
B) the hormones and neurotransmitters involved in both cases are extremely different causing different unconscious physical reactions which yield different states of mind.
C) the stimulation from violent material varies depending on the detail of the material in question. Look at how veterans with PTSD got triggered at Saving Private Ryan while few movies in the same vein have had similar reactions.

Just stop posting.

fapping has made me a god at performing for women

i cannot cum with a girl

i can fuck for an hour of hardcore porno sex, and have literally worn out many different call girls.

i have fucked my dick raw on multiple occasions

fapping control is important for your mind - set rules that are dynamic ( based on your performance at other goals throughout the day ) or it will rule you

Your the reason why this site has become what it is you fucking pussy.

being an empathyless degenerate isn't something to be proud of, or want

fucking americans have 0 priorities you are 100% consumers

What's it like having a vagina?

You realise your on a site frequented by pedophiles and has ties with a mass shooting right? You realise you are one click away from full furry action.

Me finding gore not disturbing doesn't change the fact your on a site for degenerates.

Yeah bud I bet those call girls totally think you're a sex God

If that's a dark twisted fantasy I gladly accept this

Is hearing jerk off instruction/encouragement bad for your brain as porn or is it better

>Hormone balancing
>stress relief
>increased blood flow to testicles and penis

You do realize as in all things moderation is called for right?
Yeah no shit jerking off 24/7 is bad and causes problems, you spending your time getting butthurt on a Taiwanese panty selling forum is also really bad.

You're really going to argue that someone who masturbates once weekly without porn is hurting themselves?
Have you even read the countless threads on Veeky Forums of limped dick faggots who lost their sex drive for falling for the no fap meme?

aka youll settle for an ugly woman just to get your dick wet

meanwhile ill fap and not have my judgement clouded when I choose a woman, and I wont be super thirsty to get vagina I concede other parts of my life. Casual sex is trash anyway, the only time to do nofap is when you've already picked a woman that caught your attention as sex feels better.

I haven't jacked off in 3 days now, gonna cut down to beating off like 2 or 3 time a month.

Honestly this, I did no fap for 10-12 days and literally 50 year hags would make my dick hard if they had a hint of perk tits and decentish face.

Does anyone use an app for keeping track of days? I need one to track 2 things, days without porn and days without fapping

So it works, you're just too stupid to control your own emotions.

>that picture
>Studies conducted by """"Zillman""""" and """"Donnerstein""""""
Get the fuck out.

I've been on nofap noporn for 2 weeks now and i'm way more social than I was before. i think porn ruins your ability to actually converse with women. not fapping gives you the desire to talk to them

go to different stores throughout the day and just browse shit while small talking qts

...

Praise you, user.

>tfw doing nofap and cant click this link

time to abort thread

Stop linking this bullshit.
>psychology professor

Read what biochemistry has to say about hormones, dopamine, limbic system and so on.
This shit probably needs another 50 years of research and we still won't understand it fully.

If no fap has no effect, how the fuck do you explain the placebo effect? Our body heals itself caused by a 'mindset shift'. Maybe our body/brain tries to replace the porn dopamine rush with sport, socialising...

Just because there is no evidence does not mean there is no effect.

I've never fapped once, ama

low test

that's putting it mildly, yeah.

Where is your source evidence then?

It definitely resets your sensitivity but only temporarily. If you want lasting effects you have to cut back permanently.

>do_you_know_where_you_are.jpg

Thank you, user. Seeing her other pictures kinda ruined it for me, but you gotta respect the man with the sauce

I'm going to screenshot this post and then cum tribute on it.
