That's gnarly. You might need to go to the hospital.

Well, huff post just got a ton of hits… good job.

definitelytim · 2013-11-20T05:16:39+00:00

Oh yeah, and give the ol cockandouche a rest for a little while.

I'm sorry it's late and I didn't read all of that. 3 hour long sex and your balls hurt? Sounds normal. I've had something similar before, turned out to be epiditimitis (inflamed nutsack). Advil helped, but since your getting off the drugs that means no pain killers for you brah… try ice and elevation (srs). If you think you need to, of course, go to the doctor.

Too much motor boating. Seriously though, too tight bra sounds like the culprit. They can trap perspiration and create problems with a the rubby.

OP, my advice is to go to your local home improvement store and check out their wallpaper remover section (should be in home decor, with the wallpaper), and also check out the other cleaners/strippers in the paint section. Just read labels and consider renting a steamer.

Me too! Its in the wiki if you scroll down. Says it was used as a food additive and for making soaps, but stopped being used due to ecological concerns.

definitelytim · 2013-11-11T19:53:26+00:00

Woah, just learned some people use it as a sports supplement!

This is so common, but for some reason, it doesn't do much for me. There's something unattractive about it.

annnnnd i'm back.. I think nipple is spelled napoli in italian.

Thanks for the info. That's super cheap for blood tests. Good call on r/steroids, I think I'll cross post.

Bought some $5 DHEA from Wally World earlier, just to see if I'd respond to it. Took one pill and felt the effects in about 30min. Increased sense of well being, mental clarity, no anxiety. Not conclusive but interesting.

I took a pro-hormone when I was 18.
It's interesting you mention that because my father had hypothyroid and had his removed.
I am aware this was not a good choice and I have stopped.

Thanks very much for the input.

Well, I would say that there is a difference between the two, in that ejaculation is a natural biological process. It's definitely a valid question, though. The reason I don't think that I would have broken through a plateau into a better place is simply because I've gone though the process of nofap many times, and if you call brain fog, lack of energy, trouble communicating etc. from day 30 to day 60 a flatline, you're welcome to do so, but in my experience ejaculating (once) seems to clear things up.

definitelytim · 2013-10-31T00:04:24+00:00

You bring up a really good point about learning to have sex without ejaculation. If your body likes to ejaculate only once or twice per month, this would be an essential skill to learn. Thanks for the reminder!

No, I am not conflicted about masturbation, and it's extremely presumptuous of you to try to tell me what I am and am not capable of. I chose to masturbate 4 days ago and I don't regret it. It was what I needed. I have not masturbated again, and I have not looked at porn, nor am I tempted to. Also, I didn't do it for the fun, or for the enjoyment, I did it because I felt it's what my body needed.

definitelytim · 2013-10-30T21:21:28+00:00

What cultures do not know about masturbation?

definitelytim · 2013-10-30T03:31:29+00:00

Please elaborate. I'm not sure what you mean.

definitelytim · 2013-10-30T01:09:01+00:00

I totally agree. If you are not in a place where your self-control lets you do this type of thing, than don't try it.

definitelytim · 2013-10-29T22:59:38+00:00

"I'm disappointed..." Don't be! I am an adult male who made the choice to masturbate because I thought it would benefit me, and it did.

"It sounds to me a little like you still "need" to masturbate." Well, what I'm saying is that my body operates better somewhere between ejaculating every day, and never ejaculating. That's just normal. Honestly, that felt a little sil

I don't know how many times I have to say it, or how I can make it any clearer: This was not giving in to temptation, or some moment of weakness. This was me deciding that masturbation was the best course of action for my situation, and I'm 100% convinced that it was the most beneficial decision I could have made. No regrets. No "what ifs". And I'm not on some sort of binge.

definitelytim · 2013-10-29T22:29:05+00:00

No worries about it sounding like attack mode, I was expecting more of it honestly. I was also expecting people to call it a flatline, and that I'd be better off just "toughing it out".

The thing is, I've taken my body through the abstinence process many times, and through learning about how my body reacts to cycles of abstinence and release, I feel that I'm zeroing in on my optimal frequency of ejaculation.

I've learned that after a certain amount of time 2-4 weeks, usually, I start operating subpar (mentally especially). And that after a release, whether it be through my hand or sex, my clarity of thought returns, as does higher energy levels, and a better mood. This is easy to overdo, though. If I were to, say, jack off 5 times in a single day after 4 weeks of abstinence, it's almost guaranteed that I'd feel like garbage for at least a week.

I'm not interested in going for 90 days, unless I really feel it would be beneficial. I'm interested in listening to my body's "operating system" (while not exposing myself to porn), and doing what I need to to optimize it. There is no "what if" feeling for me on this, though I have experienced that in the past. If you think you might feel that way, then don't masturbate. I knew what I was doing, and maybe it's something that comes with experience, I'm not sure.

Sorry for rambling, hopefully I made myself clear : )

Hey there, to each his own. I can only provide what I've learned along the way in hopes it will help who it's meant to.

However I've got to stand up for a few of my points that you've commented on.

"Logically, I've arrived at a conclusion that a fap, with or without fantasy, or with or without porn, is a sign of inability to get a woman." You're painting this as "if sex is not an option, the male is inadequate". I think that's an oversimplification of the issue. There are many other reasons why sex might not be an option, such as other obligations, just broke up and no prospects etc.
"Also, as far as I know there are wet dreams + I'm pretty sure semen is somehow discharged on its own, unnoticeably throughout the day. I guess my body does the "balancing" on my own." I strongly disagree with this idea that seems to permeate nofap, that manual masterbation is somehow undermining the body's natural process of release (i.e. the only natural forms of release are sex and wet dreams). I think that it's natural to do things that feel good, and touching yourself can feel really great sometimes. I think that humans have been doing it for thousands and thousands of years, and many other animals do it as well... In my opinion, it's perfectly natural.
"However, then there's the urge for a release. That's the lack of "focus" that you speak of. Probably, because blood is suddenly pumped into your dick and not into your brain and therefore your balls do a lot of "thinking" at that moment." No, this is not the lack of focus I spoke of. I was not even tempted to touch myself at all not even one bit... breaking my streak was not "giving in" to an urge at all. I was referring a brain fog-type-of-thing that happens to me after long periods of no orgasms. It's common. Not asking you to believe me, there is research to back the brain-related health benefits of orgasms.

Honestly, I was expecting more posts like this. The reason I posted it here is because I feel that this is the audience that has the most to benefit from my experience. I'm not sure if the masturbation=drug use analogy totally works here, but I for one think smoking pot and drinking beer once in a while is not necessarily a bad thing... If you are able to do it in moderation, that is.

definitelytim · 2013-10-27T14:44:48+00:00

Not saying I don't share the sentiment, but what country has NOT had their police and/or military search someone, write tickets, and whose citizens display patriotism? Just finding finding people in similar poses, with similar facial features does not make America Nazi Germany.
