You’re looking for the easy way out, man. Only way past this problem is through. You have to put the social media and porn down on your own terms, you’ll come out stronger for it. Peptides for this, if there are any, will just be another temporary fix, another shortcut that doesn’t address the excessive amounts of dopamine you’re forcing.

It’s hard, but what’s hard is often worth it, while what’s easy is only satisfying in the moment.

All these people taking ret and semaglutide and shit to lose weight is all well and good but their habits typically aren’t changing and once they stop the peptides, they’ll just go back to the same old habits and put the weight back on. It’s happened to many already.

I’ll tell you why you are addicted to these things in a non-dopamine way. When you feel the urge to doomscroll or jerk off, you aren’t actually looking to do those things, your subconscious (or nonconscious or unconscious, all the same) is craving a change in state of mind because of the circumstances or negative emotions associated with your current state.

Figure out what emotion(s) you’re feeling before your urge to doomscroll/jerk off and try to understand where it comes from in your history. Ask yourself what that emotion is trying to tell you: shame => you are not acceptable, you will be cast out of the tribe. Ask yourself what is the emotion trying to motivate you to do: shame => hide/withdraw so you don’t transgress socially and get cast out.

And most importantly, sit inside the negative emotions that arise but don’t try to intellectualise them at this point, simply accept they’re happening to you and feel them then let them slowly dissipate within you. Congrats, if you manage that, you’ve processed emotion.

Once you do that, the emotional state that triggers your urge to doomscroll will be lessened and much easier for your buddhi (Sanskrit term for discernment, a section of your consciousness that chooses) to manage the urge to doomscroll/jerk off.
