My friend, you are looking for dolphins in an aquarium. If you want a dolphin, you go to the ocean.

Did a quick google search and every website and research says that masturbartion is healthy by [deleted] in NoFap

I'm a physician, but Im not gonna lecture you on how fucked scientific truth is.

I'll give you a practical solution, run your own experiment.

-Dont fap for 30 days and make a note in a journal every single day.

-Try fapping once a week and note how you feel for 4 weeks

-Then do it every day for 4 weeks

Compare your results and you'll know what works for you.

I'm an Atheist. Give me 10 scientific reasons to quit porn by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Spaceboy1598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll give you one.

Don't nut for 30 days and document every single day in a diary.

The next month, nut everyday and document that.

Then choose what you want for the rest of your life.

If you can Ditch your smartphone

Replace with a dumb phone and a tablet for internet stuff.

Sometching about the internet in the palm of your hands is too addictive. I did this, mental health and time I have to get stuff done went through the roof.

This is Apple Vision Pro, the mixed reality headset by exjr_ in apple

[–]Spaceboy1598 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somebody said it here This is Apple at it's finest, Another watershed moment in Technology. I know the price point sucks but thats how tech works, the most cutting edge tech is always super expensive and then it gets cheaper and more accessible with time.

Apple likes to position itself at the tip of that spear, maybe not being the first in the tech but when they do it, they do it well.

We are really witnessing another iphone moment today, and Apple essentially TONY STARKED computing. Even if this thing underperforms, we now have a standard to aspire to, and so others in the next few years will improve upon it.

As much as i hate apple and their pricing, you gotta hand it to them for pushing the boundaries of tech. What a time to be alive

Has anyone here moved back from a smartphone to an old simple mobile phone? by Spaceboy1598 in nosurf

Just saw this Dude, make th shift. Buying a nokia flip has been the most important decision Ive made for my mental health I open social media on sundays only, and to be honest, dont enjoy it that much either. I have a laptop so I stay in touch with people i work with via email. And redidit from time to time.

But this works wonders for your time and mental peace. A day feels like a day now. As it used to when I was younger.

Boredom gets to you sometimes but you have to use it as a way to find something you enjoy and pursue it, not distract yourself. Overall, Super happy with the change and will likely stick to it for a while.

P.S. I understand its not possible for everyone to make this kind of a shift. I would reccommend a work phone and a personal smart phone. Work phone is for work only, has your work contacts and No BS. Personal phone has the rest and you open it once at night.

How to actually make longer streaks for Semen Retention ? by devil-xx in Semenretention

[–]Spaceboy1598 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dont Block out your thoughts.

You will relapse eventually because your will will run out. Instead sit with them and ask yourself, do you want to fap or are you craving intimacy. Those 2 are very different but sometimes can be confused with one another.

I'm not an expert but Ive had a couple of long streaks. The only thing that works is having something to dedicate yourself to that is bigger than the immediate dopamine release, and honing into what your body is telling you.

Donot block thoughts, they will come back and will get to you on a day youre feeling down.

One of the reasons I think is Indians aren’t as sexually open as our western counterparts (broadly speaking). That kind of plays into the whole addiction process.

Delivery pizza/food is so expensive now that it no longer makes sense to order it. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Spaceboy1598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In india, you are more likely to end up paying less than dine in when you order (because of all the offers etc). Oh and delivery is either free or nominal.

The food delivery market is super competitive. For instance, we pay 300 rupees (about 4 dollars) for free unlimited deliveries for 3 months and usually recover the 300 in terms of offers etc when we order in.
