Try out nofap because of no motivation and because im fapping several times a day

>Read on Veeky Forums nofap's a meme
>Decide that no harm to fap
>All the fucking brain fog and depression comes back
what the fuck man.

I'm just doing no porn, can I still post in this thread?

Sure
I relapsed yesterday, fuck, brain fog came back again.
Dopamine receptors which has been fried and recovering got fried again, this fucking sucks.

Neuroscientist have theorized that when we have too much dopamine, many of our dopamine receptors would shut down, and thereby, there would be lesser dopamine absorbed in your brain which can lead to symptoms like anxiety, depression and brain fog, which is what I'm facing now.

See a psychiatrist

Just put all that sexual energy in to something productive. (Unless youre going to fuck a woman ofc)

I believe that the reason everyone says its so "natural" is because when we fap alot we become more apathic, and more easy to deal with. Therefore absolutely everyone is teached that masturbating is "healthy and normal"

Wew, it fucking sucks man. I've experimented with fap and nofap myself. It's an addiction for my brain now. Everytime I fap, my brain awakens again with that increased attention and clarity although brain fog stays. When I nofap, the withdrawal symptoms gets worse and worse, at some point I'll have 0 motivation and my brain fog intensifies drastically, the symptoms only go away when I fap, it's like being addicted to nicotine. I wish my young self knew how to control himself, so that i wouldn't have made it an obsession and got stuck with this fucking curse. I'm in college now, exams are coming up and I have to deal with this shit that'll probably fuck with my motivations and work flow, on top of having to endure the withdrawal symptoms, blue balls of nofap, sometimes I wish of just ending myself. If you fap, do it mostly just 2-3 times a week, don't fuck with this, it's not a laughing matter. I've experimented with this myself, I've always been finding a cause of my brain fog, little did I know it was masturbation, gosh, it hid from my attention. From the last time I remembered having good clarity was when I haven't started this shit. This is something that's either good in moderation or not at all is fine. Regular sex doesn't have this problem unless someone in the relationship's a fucking nymphomaniac.

Damn, thats rough. Im op and im scared this is what im going to get.
After you are done with exams, try to treat it like a real addiction, like it is and taper it down or something

Dopamine is something that people can get addicted to. It's that feeling when you finish a hard level in a game, when you gatcha out a legendary card in hearthstone and especially when you orgasm. Orgasm drives a high dose of dopamine in your brain, the equivalent injection of dopamine to get that same high is actually very high. With any addiction there are withdrawal symptoms, some have depression, some brain fog and others can be many on the list. I myself have brain fog which cripples a lot of my work flow and productivity. We were taught that fapping is akin to sex, but what we don't hear is that no average man or woman fucks 2 times a day everyday. That high dose of dopamine after like years of jerking off kills your brain, makes it crave for more, and when it doesn't withdrawals symptoms kick in. It really sucks, if I had a second chance, if I knew this was going to happen, I wouldn't have dabbled into it.

Nah I'm going cold turkey, this shit has to stop now, probably a life lesson especially before I dabble into shit like alcohol and tobacco, I'll be none the wiser not to. Humans are creatures of temptation, we'll always have that apple of eden that we have a strong temptation to consume. That's why I'll need to willfully drop this and develop wisdom over future potential addictions.

Hope all of you can drop this fucking curse. Nofap is not a meme, fapping 6 times a day might as well be you injecting yourselves with dopamine repeatedly.

Dont. It's bullshit. Find some other pseudo motivator to get you going.
Just because you get better while on a placebo doesnt mean the placebo made you better.

>and lift 3-4 times a day

do it just once and actually do something so you get tired

...

>when you can't dispute the placebo affect so you hallucinate I went off on a rage induced rant against nofap.
Neat.

>Caveman can't either have his own body to force itself to get pleasure
>Or he can stay in cave and jack it
We aren't even that evolved
Also i'm waiting for that autist that posts like two dozen blog posts against no fap

Here niggas
youtube.com/watch?v=7oFVOJf0TzY

When you want to fap, promise yourself you'll watch a video or read a random article about a subject you're into.

I got in good terms with my noporn/nofap this way: Everytime I felt the need to fap or got horny, I would go to pocket(website/application that recommends articles) and click on the most trending articles and read it. Afterwards I actually learned something and I forgot all about my need to fap. The key is to not overthink it or obsess over it. It's the same you, spending time in a more productive way.

I do fap once/week though!

>based on the study by the university of cambridge, 60% of porn users experience porn induced erectile dysfunction

Is university of cambridge a credible source?

Yes.

>University of Cambridge
Porn addicts aligned with the accepted model of addiction

I thought Nofap was a meme, fuck you Veeky Forums you lied to me.

>And video games

I'm playing a game(muted) as I'm listening to this and this worries me.

People defend stuff they like on the internet vehemently, go in a vegan thread and see butthurt people shouting how veganism is super unhealthy and that they will continue to eat meat.
Go into a steroid thread and see how people act so proud of not doing steroids.

People protect their actions and habits to protect their fragile egos.

His description sounds like a fairytale to me.
It is much worse, try actually abstaining from pmo, porn masturbation and orgasming (unless sex with partner or dream).

After a few days I feel inable to do anything, my whole body in in passion to jump up, severe anxiety and helplessness. Imagine the feeling of hearing you mother is dying and you NEED to jump up asap to get her to the hospital. This distress is continious in waves for hours then weakens then raises again for hours, etc.

Dont lose everything because you lost focus for a few minutes. The scary thing is that it's so fucking easy to decide to just give in man. They say it's harder to quit porn than it is heroine. Its just right there, you don't have to buy it, you don't have to ask for it, it's just there. Think about the reasons why you want to do nofap and stick with it. If you start feeling like you want to relapse go to the nofap forums and watch videos preventing you to do so

>friends

Heh

>try nofap
>lose track of how many days
>must be over 2 months
>dick is now dead
>cant get it up for grils
>cant even jerk off

Should i start watching porn again or should i stick with it

>do nofap because I was fapping so much I cut my dick
>had not gotten laid (besides hookers) in 3 years
>after 4 weeks of no fap no porn, match with a petite 7.5/10 QT latina on tinder. she tells me to come over
>we fuck and turns out she is a screamer and pretty freaky
>tells me to cum in her pussy, sits on my face, squirter, etc

Now it might have been a coincidence and I thought no fap was a meme. But that was the first time I fucked a random that was not a hambeast.

Busy yourself with other activities, ya bored cunt

What is flatline for 200 points

Once i started nofap i told myself to continue until i have a gf or fuckbuddy. I have been on nofap for longer than i can remember. I think i'm going to just find some easy fat chick as gf now. Nofap is seriously killing me.

People usually the starting days are the hardest, but for me its the opposite, I manage the first 5-7 days really easy, but after that no way I can focus on anything unless I jack one off, and then I repeat again, get to day 5-7, and relapse.

I feel like if I could just get past day 10 I would easily complete the plebbit's 90 days required.

No fap is one of the most destructive things you can do. I had porn addiction and knew I had to stop. Tried no fap for 40 days and started jerking off every week or so. After some time I discovered I had trouble getting hard, my libido was pretty much non existent. Started jerking off daily ever since, without porn. I recovered my libido

Jerk daily and get laid, avoid porn

It's an Ivy lol

You need to have some self control. I knew a few heroin addicts that were just like you.

Nofap is a meme. Just do weeklyfap. Avoid porn or going on the computer at all. If your issue is fapping out of boredom, stop being bored and occupy yourself. You clearly don't work full-time if you can afford to fap that much. Get a job.

I literally can't jerk off my dick won't get hard. I don't want to force it because that seems unnatural.

14 days in.

though I have edged a few times to porn (Don't do this)

I'm on day 5 of nofap. Can't say I feel any different right now but the most important thing really seems to be cutting porn rather than the actual stroking, and it'll probably take several months to notice any gains there. Whenever I feel the urge I just read a few pages of Your Brain on Porn. Randomly stumbled onto it on /pdfs/. I never really cared about these threads before but holy shit. I mean at the very least, you have to admit that infinite porn is a total assault on your brain, your psyche, your soul. I'll definitely masturbate again, but never with porn. You should really read this shit, OP. libgen.io/book/index.php?md5=67A8938920A41776BB4B9411D51AA1A8

no porn > no fap

but mostly they go hand in hand in practice

absolutely

fucking this.

never knew what depression feels like until i took away my brain's fav toy..fapping.

All you teenage faggits take note, this shits real

Might just be people who are on the other side of the fence on the issue.

Ive taken steroids and regret it. Not really protecting my ego, just my stance after my own personal experience.

You have to get outside and away from the computer, trust me

>Not fighting through the depression for those mental and social gains
not gonna make it

Don't. Quit demonizing something healthy and normal with pseudoscience.
>Read on Veeky Forums nofap's a meme
It is.
>what the fuck man.
You fell for a meme.
>Nofap is not a meme
Yes it is.
>fapping 6 times a day might as well be you injecting yourselves with dopamine repeatedly.
More bullshit.

Complete bullshit

No it isn't.

I dont know why people make such a big thing out of this. I havent fapped for 9 months and i dont feel any different
