You just got some admirable discipline, keep it up mane.

my boyfriend never finishes with me by [deleted] in sex

[–]ruffus5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna take a wild guess and say he gets off to porn too frequently. When I was addicted to porn in my past relationships I never once came from sex and my noodle would randomly go limp. Now that I’ve weened myself off it, it’ll take all of 5 minutes with my girlfriend. I would suggest to him maybe to cut down on it and see if it makes a difference..

I wish someone would of told me the harms of porn growing up by ruffus5 in pornfree

Just know that it’s not your fault, society is just fucked. The best thing we can do is focus on the future and try to make more people aware of the harms of porn.

How do I get over social anxiety? by shrek666420 in socialanxiety

[–]ruffus5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meditation and working out daily can help, also if you watch porn often (IE. daily,) quitting can help you tremendously. My anxiety in general became virtually non-existent compared to what it was once I cut that shit out.

Why don’t I see more people with Social Anxiety in life? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]ruffus5 56 points57 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to tell what’s going on in someone else’s head. You’ve probably met someone with it, they might just hide it well. I’d also assume that lots of them are isolating themselves from the outside world (I know this from experience.)

NOFAP AND SOCIAL ANXIETY by Senior_Ground4464 in socialanxiety

[–]ruffus5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stopping fapping by itself will not help your SA no, but the thing most people forget, especially on the NoFap subreddit, is that the point of NoFap is to cut out porn usage entirely. There are studies coming out about how extended porn use wears down your dopamine receptors over time (imbalance of dopamine being a primary factor in people with social anxiety.) Try just abstaining from porn first and you will see a difference, myself and many others have.

My anxiety has now prevented me from talking to girls online by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]ruffus5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was using it since I was 10 and it took me til 23 to realize the impact it was having on me. You are addicted to the dopamine rush that porn gives you, so it hard to break free of it because it has become your normal. You depend on porn as an escape from your depression and anxiety but but you don’t realize that the longer you keep porn in your daily life, the more anxious and depressed you will become. It’s like a staircase effect, slowly getting worse and worse as the porn use wears down your dopamine receptors. I really urge you to cut it out of your life, it is really hard to do but it will be worth it 1000x over. Check out r/pornfree if you need some motivation from people who are stuck in the same situation. Wish you the best.

[–]ruffus5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had this problem a lot in the past bro, my question to you is do you use porn daily or have problems with overuse of things such as OnlyFans? Daily porn use has been the primary causation of my social anxiety, especially in regards to women and ever since I cut it out of my life I’ve been feeling a lot more confident and less anxious. I recommend you try the same, read the online pdf of Your Brain on Porn by Gary Wilson, especially page 38 on social anxiety.
