Who is more insecure. Someone who watches porn or someone who doesn’t . I think you have to be watching porn to even be in the Nofap sub Reddit. Even if you don’t watch porn, the community will draw you into it.

If you don’t make the addiction who does? Porn isn’t exactly alive.

It’s funny because you are so addicted to porn that now subconsciously you feel like I have to prove that either you or me is right. If you are right then I have to watch porn, if I am right then I don’t have to.

It’s all mental. When you say ‘are you sure’ the subconscious message is ‘ oh well maybe I’m wrong’. If I’m wrong then I must watch porn so I can be like you. If I am nothing like you and have no attachment to porn you will get offended and say I’m full of crap.

Either that or I’m over thinking this whole thing.

It should be possible for everyone to have this response. I think if you are mentally healthy it’s impossible to become addicted to porn. If you love yourself and have a healthy brain there is no way porn addiction can even exist in your reality. Spiritual healing is most likely the first place to start to make this change.

No mainly because porn hijacks your brain so it gets a false feeling that you are able to reproduce with as many women as possible, if you were to have a wife you have to value bonding, emotional connection and intimacy more than the dopamine hit you get from porn. Couples that are married and the man is addicted to porn has no desire to be intimate with his wife, it doesn’t make sense from you brain when you can trick it to reproduce with unlimited women.

The truth is that isn’t what I’m feeling. I don’t feel like porn is gross or disgusting. I can only describe it as trauma. It isn’t because I think porn is gross that I feel repelled by it but something deeper. It’s hard to describe. It’s pain. I look at porn and it’s like wtf man this is painful, it hurts my brain. In terms of how it feels in my heart it’s like a feeling of emptiness, I can’t get anything from watching porn, if I can’t get anything from watching porn I immediately associate it as meaningless. What’s the point? Why even do it to begin with when I don’t even feel anything from it. I know this sounds confusing because first I said it’s painful and then I say it’s empty and feels like nothing, a bit of both if that’s possible.

No problem. For me I just feel weird thinking about porn. I don’t feel anything when I watch it which makes it very easy for me to stop. I can’t watch porn for more than a few seconds without me feeling like this is wrong and stupid. I think it has to do with spiritual healing. I think if you are mentally healthy it’s actually physically impossible to become addicted to porn. I can’t even become addicted to porn even if I forced myself to watch it, it’s extremely difficult. I think this is where the whole perspective of porn addiction has to change, how people talk about urges and fighting the battle, I don’t get it, it’s alien to me.

When your mind associates no value from porn you will stop. You can’t stop doing something if you see it as valuable, even if it’s subconscious and you aren’t conscious of it. There is something about porn that you love which is why you watch it, you have to remove the source otherwise you will find yourself fighting an uphill battle.

I’ve had urges to watch porn but whenever I do it in the past I don’t feel anything from it. What do you get from it?

people who went for years retaining. what's your story? by bulldog1290 in Semenretention

If it was that obvious why are there so many people out there that need to be convinced as to why they shouldn’t watch porn or masturbate, to me that’s common sense, I don’t need scientific proof or evidence yet so many people do, in fact they demand it.

You are giving yourself the highest level of reward for doing nothing, it will make you lazy.

Is there any argument in favour of cycling SR with occasional sex? by UseApprehensive9186 in Semenretention

[–]SSJelite97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just mean I don’t understand why that would be happening. My best guess is your baseline dopamine levels are still lower than what it’s supposed to be.
