/nofap/ - Fappers Anonymous

>>16942

i've told a lot of people about zinc deficiency and they just think i'm crazy. i started masturbating really young, before I could even ejaculate (but would still orgasm) and my entire teenage years I was very frail/feminine looking. even now if I shave my beard I get told I look "cute". my dick is only 4.5 inches (i'm actually fine with it I haven't had any problems).

i had a nervous breakdown basically and when i was coming out of it i started taking zinc because i'd read it's good for promoting a positive mood/combating depression/etc. I eventually started using other things (vit. d/magnesium), but zinc was the first. immediately I started growing chest hair, thick facial hair, more body hair in general actually. my mind shifted drastically to a more masculine mindset (it was actually kind of uncomfortable). I felt more competitive, to the point of anxiousness, i was comparing myself to other men around me and how i stack up against them. before that i always kind of lived in this carefree, very feminine, relaxed haze; i even kind of miss it because it was pretty chill, but i understand the way i am now is much healthier for a guy.

kinda ranting and turning this into a blog post but I wanted to emphasize that this isn't a meme

>Well… I looked up Zinc deficiency and loss of testosterone.

One ejaculation contains less than 1mg of zinc and magnesium and there's plenty of food that contains zinc and magnesium.

>I have developed short sightedness right at my puberty when I started fapping.

Staring at objects that are too close and lack of sunlight as a child causes myopia.

>One ejaculation contains less than 1mg of zinc and magnesium and there's plenty of food that contains zinc and magnesium.

And in spite of this Magnesium deficiency is increasinly common, because plenty of food doesn't mean all food and the most common, usually processed, food contain not enough or any magnesium. Furthermore, you can only hold so much magnesium before the kidney begins to filter it out so 1mg of zinc and magnesium lost is relatively large to the average intake and holding capacity.

>Staring at objects that are too close and lack of sunlight as a child causes myopia.

That's the theory, and some people think there is more to it based on whatever reason they give.

Also, sage is not a downvote ;]

>>17309

>And in spite of this Magnesium deficiency is increasinly common

Why do you trust government designated RDAs to decide what makes someone deficient? The US dietary reference intake recommends you consume 36.36x more magnesium than zinc, yet there's not a single animal source food that contains that ratio.

>>17310

This is a bit of a divergence from what we were talking about, but it seems interesting and I see where you got the connection from, so sure, let's talk about the legitimacy of government mandated recommended daily amounts.

>Why do you trust government designated RDAs to decide what makes someone deficient?

I assume what an expert on a topic says is generally true or at least partly true, I assume that the governments RDA is based on the findings and study of subject experts.

That is not to say square trust, I have encountered plenty of times that something that is being said by one expert is contradicted by another, or that my own and others their experience doesn't follow the expert conclusion, not to mention general development that can make a view outdated.

So no, I don't necessarily trust RDA's, but I assume they're good rules of thumb unless convinced otherwise.

>The US dietary reference intake recommends you consume 36.36x more magnesium than zinc, yet there's not a single animal source food that contains that ratio.

I am not an expert on the American RDA, in fact, I am not American at all and the European ratio is even higher. If what you're saying is true, I guess that could be interpreted as a flaw in the US/EU RDA.

Though I have a few questions about that.

1: Why animal source food, and not both plant and animal source food considering most people eat both meat and crops as their mainstay?

2: Why would a single animal product need to have that ratio? Don't we usually fill our dietary needs by combining different foodstuffs to make a fulfilling whole?

3: Could you recommend me some of the stuff you read or watched to come to the, assumed conclusion, that the US/EU recommended daily amount is not to be trusted?

>>17221

>The third problem is it's hard to believe that sexual activity can cause addiction, because sex is healthy. But internet porn is not sex. Internet porn is as different from sex as today's videogames are from checkers.

Egads, could those sneering kikes at xhamster have been lying to us about the benefits of consuming their degeneracy?!

>>17222

Oy vey

Minimize internet time if you really want to turn your life around and it complements nofap a lot. In fact /nosurf/ is critical to succeeding with /nofap/, imo. Try and keep your internet time to just work/study stuff.

If you gotta surf then time it, no more than 15-30 mins every few days or so. If you have so much time you're craving the internet, then pick up new hobbies or get a second job.

>>9366

So sad to say that I, after 12 days, fapped. I was too stressed. I'm sorry. But now I'll go to 90 days and I'll go on, and on forever. NoFap.

>>10855

>thicc female

I get the same preference when nofap, classically fertile looking women attrack me more.

>>10843

> I use a cold shower to make my genitals cold then squeeze my prostate to push the fluid up my spine.

this sounds kind of gay. how do you sqeeze your prostate?

W-what does it mean "no fap"?! I can`t take this callenge, i love my shy girls too much XD

http://itwaud2xaejozoexeqlajezjolz6eueutqirdgv6xtu4eocsocmwbyid.onion/

>>10857

>how do you sqeeze your prostate?

Just a taint massage, also start exercising your lower diaphragms by contracting them as though you were holding in shit and piss.

>>10808

>Yerba

Tea from Brazil. It’s really good, euphoric alertness without getting jittery.

>>14208

>chá mate

Guess hello huebro, agree that this tea is alright, specially if brew it with it some lime squeeze.

I do also partake in a mix of black tea + hibiscus + brown sugar, its really soothing and easy to drink, plus I think helps with concentration and metabolism.

But I regularly still drink coffee, probably too much.

Completed 5 days without no fap. Whenever see good looking beauties, urge to hug and caress. This thought of not having beautiful and inspiring girl friend bothers a lot.

>>16889

Moar Nietzsche ! MOAAARRR

>>17125

This wasn't really informative or entertaining at all. Just the typical ad-hom shitflinging from both sides that pops up in every nofap thread outside of /nofap/. You probably wouldn't have capped it if it wasn't your own post.

You know how you say retarded stuff to yourself like "Hurr imagine her sucking a dick"? I know I do. That's cuckoldry - start saying "Imagine her sucking MY dick". And stop thinking about something so grotesque once you've uncucked yourself, faggot.

I fapped 4 times today, all to lolicon

>>17118

How exactly is it much better than regular fapping?

I can see some difference but in the end it feels just like losing semen, and if porn is required to reach that horny state than its just as bad.

Unfortunately this has become a sort of a new trip to me, and leading me to relapse more often than I should. I'm also experimenting with karezza and semen retention, it mentions a method of holding it in post accidental orgasm, which I'm unsure actually worked. Anyway, if you have anything to share on the subject, is very welcome.

>>17078

Just write the definitive book on nofap yourself, it'll be an instant best-seller.

>>13731

It's a good picture anon. Some day you will have that. Believe it.

I binged really really hard after a long streak. It went on for like… weeks. How do I not do this? How do I break myself out of the ol' "I'll start tomorrow… what's one more day?"

Any advice, trite, bad, generic, anything fellows.

>>16764

You live your life?

How do I motivate myself to acquire helpful, useful hobbies (sticking with them, primarily) and cut down on useless computer time? I have implemented some light exercise since I'm just starting out, and that's been pleasant. I'll take up some book reading as well. Largely I'm just doing my best to avoid mindless video games, those seem to do a massive number on me.

>>16802

Start taking cold showers after you work out, it helps repair your muscles. If you can't stand fully cold water at first, go with 50/50 cold and hot.

What if my penis is way too sensitive and losing some sensation will help me last longer? Is this recommended?

>>11178

Umm, that is a clear sign of not stimulating it enough. Exact opposite of numb penis. Good job un that nofap streak.

>>11179

Well shit, I tried fapping consistently with a death grip and an onahole too and my sensitivity never really went down. I also don't want to quit nofap because it helps keep me focused…damn. What do you suggest?

>>10939

What the hell happened in 5 days to make you do a complete 180?

>>11180

The oversensitivity phase will pass. Just keep on not fapping.

Man if you start to edge, just keep telling yourself how disgusting it is. You will very quickly have urges to stop.

>>16909

I know, I don't even want to edge (I was able to restrict touching for a good while there), but the peek is bad, and once you're hooked its hard to let go.

>>16905

And just to complement, I'm still not sold on the whole semen retention thing, and to be honest I don't even think I could do it. Though for sure I've seen positive aspects, so I'm looking forward to reading a book on the subject soon.

Reporting in, I think I failed last just after my last comment, however somehow I managed to completely get over it for the last week, so day 7.

It was relatively easy, but today I got really irritated and grumpy, without realizing why, I've guess I'm starting to suffer a bit of a withdrawal, hopefully tomorrow will be better.

There is one thing though, I really didn't enjoy the last time, I'm getting into that frame of mind where I really don't enjoy it anymore, deeply I just want real intimacy and love with a woman, and now I have a real reason to stay away from the shit.

So pray for me brothers, since I know it will still get a bit harder before I can come back stronger. Godbless and stay strong.

>>16974

Time is flying by. Another week, another day, and here I was wondering why I am feeling so last lately, guess it's another flat line, no joy, no horniness, to the point that it makes me want to check up porn just so I can get the feeling of being aroused again. But it's being good though, over clearer mind I even got rid of the filth porn I got during my relapse.

I'm holding on strong, though I'm extremely demotivated about everything else. As usual just reporting in, and a memo to keep strong for any struggling brothers out there, to day 14 and beyond.

No really feeling much like writing, but I feel the need to report back.

I failed last Saturday, which will already make 6 days today. I was the one that posted on the 2019 thread about cumming without even fapping, I was pretty confused on that one, but since my arousal was high, I couldn't help but fap later that same day.

I felt really bad and lazy afterwards, about my own weakness, and specifically spiral of feelings that led me to that, I was horny of course, a strong urge right after coming back from a flatline, very confused, because I managed to cum from pelvic movement alone and that pretty strong, but also frightening that perhaps I got too sensitive, and finally I was really depressed because I was feeling extremely letdown from a girl.

Still in shame I confess my sin, so that I may be stronger.

>>16771

>when i get urges, i watch the nz shooting video

Good idea. I watch Hitler speeches and the urges go away at once.

>>14859

I will tell you what helped me for 50 days before I was dispatched. It may work wonders in your case.

Physical conditioning is best when it comes to enforcing a habit or removing it. So, I suggest that whenever the urge hits that you have a belt at hand, take off your shirt, and hit yourself on the back as many times as it is necessary to make your brain associate the urge with immense pain. It will work; hell, I'll retry it myself.

Take care not to engage in the lashing when in presence of others or even in their earshot as they'll think you crazy. Personally, I used to go to garage and hit myself.

>>14859

I'm not riduculing you by this suggestion as I am infected with this disease as well.

As time passes, youre mind will have an unwelcome premonition of the habit and will help you overcome it instead of just promote it like it normally does.

>>15446

>Jill it

Hey, I learned something new today.

Anyway, the main problem for porn addiction is too much free time, which is based on hedonism, and is self destructive. The jewish "globalism" agenda creates a world catering to the hedonistic urges of humanity, mainly materialism in form of capitalism. Religions were the first step towards this, because they hid the natural laws and exchanged them with the laws of men, who are all against nature. Furthermore the natural quest for knowledge (based on adaptation) was replace with unquestionable believe.

Next they created weaponized mantle terms like atheist, infidel and goy to catch everyone that didn't fell for their religious doctrine. If you argue against being an atheist, you thereby accept religious believe as real and rebel against it. That's how they got you.

Religion is based on the exploitation of the natural traits (blind) faith an morality. The atheists have that to but nothing to direct it on, so they fell right into the next trap…materialism in form of capitalism, the jewish lies of "freedom of choice" and "individuality"… for a price.

That's pure hedonism and created the mindless drones that follow the doctrine of self service, while paying the jews for all the tools of self destruction. This is where "sexual freedom" destroyed your life. What you need to do is find something real to work towards, and while you do this you need endless chores to keep you occupied. Life demands struggle, death lures with temptation. Get off your ass and build a family, anon.

26m here. started fapping when I was 6 without porn. found porn around 12 and have been on 2 faps a day since. I've known it was a problem in my teen years but I never really looked into it. it has ruined my relationships, be it romantic to platonic friendship, my confidence, my looks (less test, and bigger appetite).

currently on day 2. this site is really helping me curb the desire. the longest i've gone without fapping was 4 days during a camping trip where on the last day, I found a spot in the forest where I could get a slight connection and beat off to 40kb of tiddies

>>16976

Are you still continuing anon?

>>16987

relapsed like a fuck head and now i'm back at day 2.

woke up early, did some yard work, lifted weights, walked my dog, now i'm just fighting the urge and thinking something to do with the rest of my day. it's 11am for me right now lmao.

on a side note, how long does it take to start busting in your sleep? i'm going on a trip soon and i'd like to avoid that.

>>13898

The Cum Can (seminal vesicle) does not judge. Every man has one. It is a battery whose charge nourishes body and brain, a battery which resists becoming fully charged.

The Cum Can is at once the hero and the villain of our cause.

ready for a greater quest!

>>13850

OP here

I should start playing that. I’ve heard good things

>>13911

The gameplay is good and some bosses are 100% shitwrecking fun, but it has attractive female characters that may make your nofap difficult.

Basically, play it when you will have complete control over yourself. When you will be 100% free from the PMO. Than should gurantee that you won't fail.

This is the water and this is the well.

Drink full and descend.

The horse is the white of the eyes and black within.

I'm inclined to believe it's in the same boat as the (((studies))) that prove trannies are real women. Modern people worship science so much that they take the word of scholars over basic logic and common sense. I don't need a study to know that breaking an addiction is objectively beneficial on its own merits.

>>16836

IM PISSED OFF YOUR ACCEPTING THAT THERE ARE STUDIES SHOWING MASTURBATING IS HEALTHY.

ALL THE SCIENCY ARTICLES STATING IT IS USE RANDOM LIBERAL FAGGITS OPINIONS AS BASIS NOT ACTUAL FACTS. REAL STUDIES SHOW IT IS NOT GOOD FOR U.

"1. Masturbation doesn't have the health benefits that sex does.

"It appears that not all orgasms are created equally," says Tobias S. Köhler, MD, MPH, an associate professor at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in Springfield.

Study after study shows that intercourse has all sorts of benefits for men – for your blood pressure, heart and prostate health, pain, and more. You'd think that masturbation would, too. But it doesn't."

YOUR BODY KNOWS DIFFERENCE

>>16840

There are plenty of (((peer-reviewed studies))) proving many things. That doesn't mean they're scientific or factual, the problem is the peers are all sitting in a circle and they've each got the next guy's cock in their right hands.

>>16716

Imagine being this fucking stupid

Personal decision of mine to do this. I used to think a lot like you, but recently I really felt like it was a problem. My fetishes kept getting more and more degenerate and I always felt disgusting afterwards. I want to end it, and I will end it.

>>16726

>I only believe what others are saying because I'm a mindless sheep incapable of independent thought and will insult free thinkers.

I like nofap because I like the way it feels when I abstain from porn. There is no self-flagellation or puritanism in that.

Its like when people get mad about dieting, "why deprive yourself, why not be happy and eat all you want?" I don't have to think food is evil to say that some restriction of food-desire is necessary for my well-being. Eating a healthy, balanced diet in this example is like sex or porn-free fapping, not prone to being abused by most because of availability and strength of the sensations being limited naturally. Sweeteners are like porn in that they are used with the goal of making more money by getting people hooked on stronger and newer flavors so that they have a hard time enjoying food without them. If you can manage to indulge them often without any issues fine, but for many that is not the case and some deprivation leads to a feeling of freedom and balance.

>>16825

Masturbating too much won't raise the risk of cancer, heart disease and an overall lower life expectancy. It's not nearly the same. That freedom and balance only exist because of expectations you place upon yourself.
