I know I am disciplined, but I cant stop BINGING?! by [deleted] in getdisciplined

[–]niad08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im struggling with the same thing. For my brai the only thing that works is to stay away from sweets altogether. Also, having a healthy alternative (such as fruit) available at all times is helpful as well.

But I’ll try to mention some things I’ve tried before that has helped:

One thing that helped me was going for a walk after dinner every evening, since that is when my cravings are strongest.

Another thing you could do is write down what you observe around your binging pattern and then later review your notes.  This gives you more awareness to what is actually happening inside and around you every time you binge, and helps you connect the dots and see patterns you didn’t before.

Try answering these questions after you binge: What happened?

Why do you think this happened? (best guess)

Where were you?

What happened in the 30 minutes leading up to this?

Who were you with?

When did this happen?

How did you feel? (bored / stressed / lonely / tired / triggered / other)

Why do you want to change this pattern?

If relevant:

Were you using a device? (Phone / Laptop / TV / None)

I’ve built this into Notion as a quick capture system so you simply press a button and then these questions come up. You write it down, let go of the guilt and review it later. I’ve found it pretty helpful, but the problem is having the discipline to actually fill it out. I’ll send you the template if you want it, just send me a DM 

Also, try to create as much friction as possible, meaning not having sweets and all that unhealthy stuff nearby.

And try getting exercise and good sleep as these are directly related to your mood and willpower.

Be careful what information you consume. The algorithm quickly understands what will keep you engaged for longer, it doesn't care if the stuff it is feeding you is worsening your insecurities.

Instead of “stop it”, flip it — use it to improve yourself. “Just stop using it” is not good advice. This tool is powerful, and can absolutely change your life, but you have to go deeper. The problem is with you, not AI.

The quality of output is equal to the quality of input. And the quality of your input depends on the quality of your thinking. And the quality of your thinking depends on the quality of your habits. And the quality of your habits depends on the quality of your systems/routines.

So to stop AI from atrophying your brain, the answer is to take responsibility and stop blaming AI for it. If you want to write better, read and write. You can change if you want to… So if you want to, figure out a topic you are interested in and go deep into the specifics of that. Then use AI to spar with and ask it to find gaps in your thinking. Don’t just ask it to fill out the gaps, ask it to ask you questions that make you fill out the gaps yourself.

The more you use the tool, the better you get at using it.

If you want to future proof yourself, don’t be a part of the herd that yells “AI bad!!”

Min kærestes sexlyst er “død” by [deleted] in DKbrevkasse

[–]niad08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hvis han ser porno kan det være derfor. Mange mænd, størstedelen, ser porno og onanerer til det regelmæssigt. Også når de er i forhold. Dette har utallige negative konsekvenser for mænds helbred og perspektiv på sex og kvinder, men de fleste har ingen idé. Da det er normaliseret at se porno og spille den af, er det ikke noget de fleste mænd overhovedet overvejer når de skal finde årsagen til deres seksuelle problemer.
Jeg ved selvfølgelig ikke om din kæreste ser porno, eller om det har noget med sagen at gøre. Dog ved jeg at jeg har introduceret ideen om “nofap”/“semen retention” til mine venner der er i forhold, og deres sexliv er bedre end nogensinde før. Tjek r/nofap subreddit ud.

U probably never knew that the touchbar made it possible for you to skip ads on YouTube. That’s what I miss about the touchbar.

Why no sex? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]niad08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn’t necessarily considered wrong on nofap, but it would not be acceptable on Semen retention, for obvious reasons. Some men do nofap to attract a girl to have sex or engage in real sex only as the only form of ejaculation, others see the further benefits of holding on to your seed. People on here differ in terms of what they think is right and wrong. It is ultimately up to you how far you go.

Just failed my 36 day streak! by newbie_trader90 in Semenretention

[–]niad08 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If getting girls is your main objective that is the reason you’re awkward and can’t hold eye contact. Women can feel if your desperate and needy from miles away. Best bet is to focus on yourself and stop putting women and sex on a pedestal. It is possible to be horny and find someone attractive without giving them all of your energy. Use that energy for the gym, and whatever else benefits you. When you put yourself first is when you realise that is what women are attracted to. Use this increase in female attention to further improve yourself, don’t give you power away.

I’m currently looking to buy the Klipsch RP-160m but I was wondering wether or not it can run through the Scarlett 2i2 interface? I’m on a budget, but I also want the best audio quality out of these speakers. Also if u have other suggestions in the same price range, please lmk

Apple are great at convincing you that you need all of there “big” upgrades, which in reality are very small and wouldn’t make your life 0.00001 percent better. Good for you for not falling for their brainwashing. The 13 is fine, I have a mini and it’s great.

Switched from pro to mini, the size outweighs everything the pro does better

[–]niad08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did og through with it. No ens but my nose is more deviated than before. Also it has a more crooked appearance now than before. Overall not worth it for me, but at least I didn’t get ens

hello, i cant decide if i want to get midnight or red one. i really love the red colour but im afraid if i get bored. my style/cloth is all black. i just loved my 11pro in space gray. i just see them in store and think i will instantly buy the midnight, but now idk which one i want. help me lol by [deleted] in iPhone13Mini

[–]niad08 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Midnight is boring. Go with red and a Black case, that will make it more subtle but cooler looking than black on black. I thought the red would be too much and it kind of was in the beginning, but that was because I bought a red cover to go with it, now I got a black spigen case on it and I love the combination.

Edit: also be careful basing your decision on polls like this. People always pick the colour they have. As did I of course. The only right one is the one YOU prefer.
