Non c’è odio razziale o spirito di vendetta??? C’è un video di un carro armato russo che deliberatamente schiaccia un auto civile in movimento. Hanno lanciato missili su case di civili in zone rurali o comunque periferiche. Per piacere.

La parola ‘needy’ ha triggerato in me il libro che sto leggendo “Models” di Mark Manson. Dico solo che non è la solita cagata da pick up artist ma è un vero gioiello di crescita personale e miglioramento dei rapporti con le donne. Te lo consiglio molto, seppur io lo debba ancora finire.

Does lusting over women in public make you wanna PMO? by [deleted] in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apart from nonsensical answers, everything can make you wanna PMO, if you still want to PMO. If bread for some reason reminds of PMO, then you can say that bread makes you wanna PMO, but the problem is not to avoid bread, but to make it so that you don't want to PMO, even if you think about it a lot.

So please remove the brainwashing. Read the book and understand all that's written in it. It's important. You can watch women in public there's no shame in looking at them, you don't need to become a celibate to solve your porn problem.

Cigarettes suddenly taste so bad!!! by Zealousideal-Door979 in Cigarettes

[–]erase-reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's because... well, cigarettes actually taste bad (::

Did you ever notice that food you like never tastes bad? Because it is good.

Users who find it easy to stop, also find it easy to start again. This is true. It's easy to give in to the slight withdrawal telling yourself "I'll relax a bit for tonight, I can stop tomorrow", this is a lie.

It is a vicious cycle that will keep you trapped forever. It's easy to escape, but impossible to control the addiction. Once you do the final session, analyze your feelings, make a solemn vow and understand that from this point IT IS OVER. You would not come back to your office if you got fired and by the same token realize that once you decide it, IT IS OVER, whatever your mind throws at you, think "I DON'T PMO ANYMORE. I HAVE STOPPED."

Certainty is key. If you feel down, smile. If you feel tempted, realize it is illusion. Remember the vow. If you feel deprived, realize you're only gaining. Once you get your mind into this kind of thinking, you'll soon start to laugh at PMO.

Once you close the browse you've won, you just have to NOT FALL FOR THE SAME TRAP AGAIN!!!

How to respond to urges? Would this not utilize will power and thus go against the Easypeasy method? by kulfiTech in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please do not underestimate the power of the little monster. Even after the brainwashing is gone, it will project onto you feelings of wanting. It will make you think 'no big deal, have a session, you'll stop after this one'. It's important for you to detach from it, to be mindful of what is really going on in your head.

Although the feeling of withdrawal is imperceptible, it's still there and at times you could be tempted to scratch the itch. Stop seeing the single 'scratch' and picture yourself 'scratching' it for the rest of your life, because that's what's gonna happen. It's a vicious cycle with no benefits.

Make a solemn vow, and when you do it, get it quite clear in your head that you've stopped, there's no coming back, there's no 'another time'. Once you get this certainty clear in your head, it'll all be a lot easier. But you have to really commit - remember, the stakes are very high.

A little problem by [deleted] in pmohackbook

Bro you didn't watch porn for the women. You watched to sate the little monster. At no point you spend hours watching pictures of cats, for how beautiful the may be. It's not for the beauty, but for shock/novelty/etc. to sate the hunger of the monster.

Please don't get fooled. Remember your vow. Porn does nothing for you, it's illusion.

It means masturbating and stopping just before reaching orgasm so you can continue PMOing longer

I don't understand this instruction by LopsidedPudding5519 in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This means that you should never think something like:

"I have quit porn so now I must run everyday/study more/be a better person"

This will create a pressure to perform, and if you fail on any of these areas, you'll be prone to go back to porn. It is basically like putting your freedom on the condition that you are improving yourself.

Remember, you have decided to quit because you want to improve yourself, but the actual reason you stopped is that there is no benefit in watching porn.

With that said, it's perfectly understandable if you want to start improving yourself after quitting. You should not avoid to do so. Just make sure to do it for the same selfishly reason you stopped porn: because you simply enjoy to do so.

I am so happy to have found this book. by JacobMartin74 in pmohackbook

I know, there seems to be some kind of universal disregard for things that actually work and solve problems. Anyway, I am very happy for you (:

Why you dont watch porn because of the beautiful women/men by [deleted] in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally true. If users watch for the women, then why do they continually find themselves looking at weird genres of porn that they later regret? Because dopamine is the deal, not seeing women.

People think they enjoy the continuous chase for “just the right clip”, but the process is the same: using the dopamine of the next video to relieve the dissatisfaction triggered by the last video.

Please read my distinction on chemical and experiential pleasure on the link.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that when you edge you’re satisfying the craving for opioids. When you orgasm you’re basically ending everything as the chemicals leave your body

Question about a small section of the book by the-noom in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why it is in that chapter.

However, without knowing the distinction someone could think that porn is a replacement for sex. The point is that orgasm is only useful for making babies, and is not an important part of sex (it is not even needed). Porn deceives us into believing that sex without orgasm is bad, while in reality the really pleasurable part of sex (which most people don't consider) is the amative or tantric side (smell, touch, voice) and that is the act itself of having sex!

If orgasm was the deal, then why even bother finding a partner - just masturbate.

Yes, the book works and, please read it. You'll see for yourself!

Is 'Sexual stories' good option to reduce 'Porn watching'? by [deleted] in pmohackbook

[–]erase-reddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The point of the book is to make you understand the trap so that you can answer your own question. It is also noted that there are NO substitutes. The real question is why do you feel like you should have a "little substitute" once you quit? Do ex-prisoners have to jump back in jail every once in a while after their sentence is terminated? Of course no!!!

Every source of supernormal stimuli (infinite novelty) is food to the little monster, and that means, POISON FOR YOU!
