pick yourself up and keep trying.

I had a 32 and then a 39 day streaks this year. slowly building up to that 90 day plateau.

Through struggle user. That's how.

Get on some fuckin testosterone replacement and beat your Shit 3 times a day

>But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Matt 19:26
Ask for the grace to succeed brother and you will

What if you don't

what are the benefits of nofap?

I'm on a 14 day streak. Thanks for the inspiration, bruh. Just pick it back up and try again.

You need to get a different mindset and approach sexuality different, it's the only way. Masturbating and porn isn't an alternative any more, it is degenerate and makes you weak and lazy.

You'll become more horny. Stronger erections.
Everything else is pseudoscience. There aren't really a whole lot of studies on it, far as I know

I just failed on day 1. Couldn't even make it through the final hour before bed.
>kill me now

>falling for the no fap meme

top cuck, literally

-During male orgasm the brain releases a dopamine and endorphin pulse as high as a dose of heroin

-A dopamine spike like that (or several) lowers dopamine receptor sensitivity

-Shitty dopamine receptor sensitivity causes anxiety, CFS & depression

-Even lack of motivation, tenacity and lack of feelings of achievement

-Orgasms make you want to have another orgasm

-To achieve orgasm your brain has to dump Serotonin

After orgasm you get a long lasting spike of Prolactin

-High prolactin inhibits dopamine, testosterone and LH

-Serotonin and Dopamine together are responsible for impulsivity, "aggression" and dominance

-Prolactin increases 5ar production (hairloss)

-Orgasm also reduces androgen receptor density in the brain

-High amounts of zinc, selenium and copper are lost each jizz

-Which can lead to low test (zinc), low t4 (selenium) and neurodegeneration (copper)

So aside from the addictive angle we are having two physical problems here. One is the neuroreceptor degradation, the other is the loss of essential and hard to get minerals. Lack of ejac recycles semen in the body through which none of the building blocks of the man juice is lost. But I guess with adequate supplementation one could keep being a wanker.

It seems though that there is no way around the neuro sides. It pretty much does act like a drug, desensitizing your receptors and then giving you less receptor firing in every day life -> being sluggish, low energy, low dominance, being timid, low achieving, "not feeling like doing it" etc. This makes a lot of sense evolutionary wise as well as humans unlike rabbits are not "made" to copulate that much or have offspring in that size. Our biology seems to be K selected rather than R selected and puts a stress and drain on our body and its resources.

So here's the thing, porn is a lie as is masturbation. It is a lie in the sense that it is not true intimacy whatsoever. It keeps you enslaved to a feeling, or thoughts. Ones that we were never created for in the first place. It enslaves you to your flesh. To overcome you must first believe in this truth, because realizing that those porn producers, those girls, etc, don't really care about you, says enough. They couldn't care less normally if you ruined your life doing this stuff. Granted they are lost too. But the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak. Look at the final outcome of overcoming. Learn to hate the self degradation that porn applies to your mind, and your heart. Masturbation is the same way. It's not true intimacy. If you don't end up hating it, you will probably go back to it. I wish you the best user. God bless.

Could you give some citations?

Should I stop having sex now or what are you implying

Basically if your a beta and watch porn your gonna stay a beta. But if your an alpha you can beat your dick all the time because you don't give a fuck about what others say is bad for you

I fap because I'm sad.
I'm sad because I'm lonely.
I'm lonely because I'm not very outgoing.
I'm not very outgoing because I fap and I'm sad.

I just hit 23 and started to feel old as well and even more of a loser.

You only need to know this:
>To achieve orgasm your brain has to dump Serotonin
Serotonin is important for regulating body temperature, mood, sleep, vomiting, sexuality and appetite. Low levels of serotonin may be the cause of, among other things, clinical depression, migraine, tinnitus, fibromyalgia, bipolar disorder, compulsive disorder and anxiety disorders

and

>After orgasm you get a long lasting spike of Prolactin
During a pregnancy, the woman's body undergoes many hormonal changes. A number of these hormones, especially progesterone, estrogen and prolactin, increase the value quite drastically. A result of this hormonal increase is the swelling of the breasts, and an increase in the actual size of the bristles milk glands and ducts. After birth, hormones estrogen and progesterone will start to decline while prolactin continues to increase. This new hormonal imbalance enables natural breastfeeding.

I'm not saying you should stop having sex, but that you should consider that it isn't optimal to have an orgasm and ejaculation every day.
