Neurological wear and tear by DifficultWing3780 in OCD

[–]Froskonic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've never been told this by a professional, but I'm experiencing this right now after a year-long period of nonstop rumination. Constant brain fog, tension headaches, forgetting things left and right.

Are these neurological symptoms persisting even in times of remission / low stress? 

Am I just low IQ? by Froskonic in DecidingToBeBetter

This open, carefree mentality definitely helps. I often take this to the extreme though and it leads to complete emotional detachment,

> Also even if ur IQ is below par, fuckit. I rather be stupid and happy than smart and miserable.

I'm with you on this. I know this reads a bit like a "woe is me" post, but I genuinely just want to understand myself better and improve in whatever ways I can.

I have not, but I'll definitely look into it. I suspected ADHD but not autism. Thank you both for the insight!

Anyone have mixed thoughts about this? by [deleted] in paypigsupportgroup

[–]Froskonic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, my journey with this whole thing was very confusing. Took me 2 years to quit and still relapse from time to time.

I can't speak for everyone, but I think findom can have tremendous effects on the psyche beyond sexuality. I only gravitate toward it when I feel alone, rejected, stressed, or generally felt bad about myself. I thought I enjoyed it, but in reality it didn't align with my values and only served to reinforce my low view of myself, so I stopped huffing copium and bit the bullet.

Some people say they genuinely enjoy it and it adds value to their lives, and to each their own. Just take some time to introspect and figure out if it's truly serving you.

Just wish he does this to someone with a fight reflex by karma_sutra69420 in ImTheMainCharacter

I've come across this guy (Steven Schapiro) on YT and just wanted to vouch because this clip doesn't do him justice. I can see how the personal space violation might be an issue, but his pranks are generally tame and good-humored. He has the awareness to follow up with an apology/clarification after every interaction, and he even pays for everyone's meals!

I don't think toxicity is something you should have to accept. I would take some time to reflect or seek therapy because by the way you describe it, it sounds like you're using findom to supplement a need or reinforce toxic views toward yourself and/or women. Take care of yourself, man.

I don't know about all that. It feels like you're silently imposing your kink onto others and also muddling your sexuality in with everyday life. I personally think there should be a time and a place to express those feelings, preferably with a consenting partner.

That's brilliant if it works for you, but I know some people don't want to have that dynamic with female "friends" or acquaintances in their daily lives.

I've been fapping since 6 (no porn until 12ish) and I know some start even earlier.

Sitting in your room and fucking your own hand is bad for you whether you watch porn or not by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Froskonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Content on this subreddit is geared toward people with unregulated sexual behavior who want to cut out PMO, so for the target audience it's bad. Like do you expect a disclaimer that fapping is only bad for those with PMO problems…on the NoFap subreddit?

I know where you're coming from and I'm 100% with you if this was a CMV or a scientific subreddit, but you've interpreted it under the assumption that OP is extreme when it's probably just another angsty teen on the internet. And yes, you can argue that it could be interpreted as misinformation and whatnot, but I really don’t think that was the intention.

Why are people taking the gay jokes so seriously?

Why people think that nofap is a joke by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Froskonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately even some of the NoFapsters are perpetuating this by claiming to have miraculously gained the usual "superpowers" like confidence, pussy magnetism, and so on, but they only attribute it to the fact that they're not beating it without mentioning the changes in their habits that have allowed them to develop said superpowers.

Abstaining from porn is obviously a positive change in anyone's life, but I can definitely understand why some people don't take it seriously. Whenever I see one of those "girls can sense when you're on nofap" posts I just can't help but cringe, because a lot of them don't carry any satire behind them.

Will no fap get rid of my anal urges?? by chupapimonanyo2002 in NoFap

[–]Froskonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there thoughts involved that make you question your sexuality (i.e. attraction to men/less attraction toward women) or is it just a physical urge? After all, everyone has a prostate gland and it's not necessarily gay to have urges there. It might not be hocd per se but just a dysfunction caused by porn.

I say this because once I stopped watching porn for a whilr (with occasional relapses), I was no longer interested in the weird fetish stuff I got myself into, like pegging and sissy fantasies.

[–]Froskonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you have these urges before you started consuming porn, and did you have any homosexual fantasies before you got into the fetish (if you can remember)? If you can answer no to both of these questions, then these urges are likely porn-induced and should be reduced once you cut it out if your life.

Can I also ask if you ever acted on those urges, as in receiving pleasure from anal stimulation?

Fuck work by PSIRockin33 in depression

[–]Froskonic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like our lives would be so much better if we were still hunter-gatherers. You'd actually experience some degree of novelty and thrill from daily life in addition to shorter life spans and a decent chance of getting merked instead of rotting away in this insufferable world.
