NoFap launched 5 years ago (2011) and since then we have had heard both success stories and opposite stories. What is Veeky Forums's final consensus on this? I've participated for 30 days before and I did indeed have shitton of confidence boost, but I started to get mood swings and became too horny to function as a normal human being.
What is the best way to deal with this? No porn but fapping is ok? Maybe porn fapping only once every 2 week? I want to hear your guys opinion. What works best?

Sincerely kill yourself and stop shitting up this board

This has nothing whatsoever to do with literature.

I take it that you masturbate and watch porn a lot and being confronted with this really annoys you? ;)
Connor Nguyen
Sexual satisfaction is "necessary", so it's ok to fap once in a while. When fapping becomes an addiction and you can't get off unless you watch porn, you need a detox.

Other boards are too dumb for me, don't want their opinion.
Is it ok to fap daily to porn? I know masturbation in itself is natural, but I wonder if adding porn to the equation really fucks with your dopamine system?

You are literally saying nothing of value here, you're like that sheep who follows the rest of the flock

And you're too dumb for this board. So, your search continues.

When you smell shit wherever you go eventually you'll have to realize where its coming from

Literally "Babbie's first libidinal economy" is not anything, it's like throwing in a random thought pattern that occured from countless years of meme browsing, fuck off.
John Thompson
Its all inange garbage like this merits

You guys are all triggered, definitely not Veeky Forums worthy, a real litizen doesn't get triggered by these kind of things.

Porn is exactly what can become addicting and bad about that, not masturbation
Juan Cooper
Nah, it's not ok. You get used to it, and then you'll get addicted to it, and so you won't get hard unless you watch porn, and you will ejaculate without orgasm and faster than before. If you want to fsp daily, do so without porn, but I wouldn't recommend doing it daily either. Just masturbate when you really need to, not because it has become an habit. That is fucked up.
Justin Wood
Edge without cumming, dummies.
Camden Nguyen
I think it's more important to stop watching internet porn. If you're a ugly loser like me, completely stopping masturbating is impossible since I've no hope of having actual sex and masturbating to your imagination, once or twice a week is harmless. Porn fucks you up though.
Owen Powell
You people should find cleverer ways of expressing yourselves.

I suffered haematospermia (blood in the sperm) in September three days in a row, and it got worse each time until there was literally just blood coming out. I figured I'd spot fapping and I managed to hold out until last Saturday, when I watched the Behind The Scenes video of Alice Green's dogfart video with her IRL boyfriend. I literally couldn't help myself and ended up rubbing myself like a girl through my boxer shorts (as if I just had an enlarged clitoris or something) and when I came I could feel my penis and balls pumping for like a minute after, and my penis just throbbed still hard for like 30 more seconds. But I looked in my boxers and found really dark, sticky blood like the kind of clot you pick out from your nose after it bleeds, and I freaked out big time. I had to basically pinch a little globule of this dark sticky blood from the tip of my urethra and tug it slowly and carefully from inside. When I first tugged it I could feel the string going all the way down my penile shaft into my testicles, it felt like I was pulling an actual testicle through the narrow passage out of my penis. But I just kept pulling and eventually pulled out a sort of mass of dark congealed blood. My penis stang like hell but I couldn't do anything to stop. Ever since then this week whenever I pee blood just leaks out afterwards and in work I go to the bathroom and keep finding blood seeping into my underwear. Not good. I can't afford to go the hospital so I hope it just heals itself.
Lucas Gonzalez
The way I handle it is I watch a lot of porn. I look for stuff where someone genuinely looks humiliated. I'm also into trap porn, cuckolding, piss, shit, incest, pale petite girls that look super young, feet, legs, stockings, panties, predicament bondage, and rape. I watch porn and masturbate every time I get the urge and the rest of my life just falls into place
Lucas Lopez
>Nofap no >Noporn yes
John Sanders
That is not a side effect of masturbation. You need to got to the emergency room. If you can prove you are poor the hospital will pay for it.
William Smith
I did this for a long time and although I've had no negative symptoms I assume I've fucked up my prostate or something.
Now I have like two videos I bust easily to and then I'm done. It's still unideal because I'm using porn but it's way better than edging for hours as I fuck up my brain going through porn after porn after porn
Luis Morgan
I hope you mean this sarcastically, cause otherwise no, your life wont fall into its place, must be nonfunctional if thats your life
Kayden Brown
That's actually worse for you, please research deeper, you don't know what you are talking about

And yet I'm fine. Some might say excellent.

I have never winced so hard in my life. This caused me physical pain to read.

In terms of "fixing" yourself (in terms of curing ED/DE and improving confidence), I've found that NoFap -- that is, no fapping and no porn -- isn't really helpful.
IMO, two things are better: 1) Normalizing the female form, both in its beauty and its mundaneness 2) Becoming accustomed to the intensity of passion that the female form brings (i.e. get rid of "Death Grip Syndrome" and get used to the fact that sex is rather boring)
For ancient humans (specifically those living within the tropics), this would simply be observing the women around you and asserting your authority to pursue and have sex with them.
Nowadays, you have porn -- both softcore and hardcore -- to remove the "specialness" of the female form. However, sexual politics are very strange now, so there's never a guarantee of sex. And yet we have the technology to mimic sex with vaginas, in all its realism.
Alexander Powell
>in all its realism. Not much realism. Even if they can make the heat, texture and lubrication they can't reproduce the effects of an actual living breathing, thinking human being. Given that merely hugging another person releases dopamine, presumably full on physical sex with a pheremone-sweating partner has numerous physiological differences to any fleshlight, not to mention the psychological aspect of sharing pleasure, pain and intimacy.
