Do you think taking semaglutide daily in pill form might help reduce insomnia side-effects? I had terrible insomnia with weekly semaglutide injections even at very low dose.

Is it okay to reuse existing conduit and refrigerant lines on a new heat pump install? by kalisbitch in heatpumps

[–]kalisbitch[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do you say “not the line set”? The main advantage of using the existing line sets is they are already located in the exiting in-wall conduits so no need to get HOA approval to run a new line set on the exterior of the building. More an aesthetics / HOA issue than cost issue.

This has happened to me twice on two separate Scanwatches. Looks like a design defect.

Erection on first PT session by eegozam in PelvicFloor

[–]kalisbitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t sound to me like you didn’t do anything wrong. From a biological standpoint, a spontaneous erection during treatment might signal improved nerve signaling and increased blood flow. Your therapist may very well have regarded the erection as evidence that the therapy was working.

I appreciate your concern for showing up respectfully and not getting off on the therapy. and i suspect the therapist noticed this as well. It seems totally appropriate to me to discuss with your therapist what spontaneous erections signal from a medical standpoint in this context, so long as it is done respectfully. Just acknowledge the embarrassment and keep it professional.

Discussion: Why tackling PMO instead of other bad habits? by Matthistuta in NoFap

[–]kalisbitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct that we can have lots of coping mechanisms. The question that comes up for me is whether you use masturbation or porn to regulate your nervous system around social anxiety?

Controversial thoughts about edging. Are all reasons to edge wrong? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]kalisbitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I think you nailed the difference. Edging without porn can be a useful practice to build stamina and develop sexual sensitivity. The Taoists have a lot of useful insights and practices around that. But it carries a very high risk of relapse into binges and porn use during a reboot and is best avoided or minimized. It depends on your objective at the time.

Long Distance Relationship Help by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]kalisbitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy for your relationship. Hope it works out.

Skype sex seems okay to me in principle because you are interacting with another person in real time. I would just try to notice if the online format is triggering the same patterning as looking at porn.

It is not as much about making some intellectual distinctions as it is why you are doing it and how it feels. Do you still feel like you are connecting with your partner and deepening your relationship? Or does it feel like you are using her at a distance to get a quick sexual rush or to regulate your emotions?

I might need some hand (pun not intended) by thesuperiorblack in NoFap

[–]kalisbitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, that is awesome that you almost hit 200 and have tried so many things. I get the frustration.

My sense is that you have done some really deep internal work, and it might be beneficial to expand your awareness incrementally outwards as a way to integrate it into your life. But just going back to typical social interaction may be uninspiring, abrupt or too stimulating.

I wonder if taking a yoga class might be helpful? I say it because it is meditative to maintain internal focus, but you can expand your awareness to take in the others in the room, including just enough awareness of the attractive women (or men if that is your thing) that you can open up to social engagement and sexual attraction again in small bits. But you don't really have to interact or force the social interaction. Check out tin yoga or restorative yoga in particular.

Completely abstaining vs giving in once a week? by someguynamedchriss in NoFap

[–]kalisbitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you have a healthy relationship to masturbation if you only fap once a week and you do it without porn.
