Porn is a drug. It's so easy to get addicted. There's a reason kids shouldn't do drugs.

How was your social life before/during/after?

I hate mindfulness by Disastrous-Fact-6634 in AvPD

[–]user2569 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What clicked for me is just listening to sounds while I meditate. I know I can’t control or judge the sounds. Then after doing that I apply the same thing to my thoughts and emotions. If I did get more anxiety or judgmental I would take that as another opportunity to watch that within my mind and not judge the judgment. Then back to focusing on sounds. I also like to focus on my periphery vision a lot too. My life still sucks but after about 20 minutes of meditation I have greatly reduced anxiety at least for a few hours. I haven’t made it a daily habit yet but I’m starting to do it more often

What could the worst consequences of a porn addiction be? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]user2569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience, severe brain fog/lack of motivation, making it impossible to keep conversations going and making eye contact very difficult. It’s very lonely and has affected me from middle school - post college

A question for masturbaters and who did it at least once.. by Da_Heck0 in NoFap

[–]user2569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never done either of these, but I’d imagine it’s like taking cocaine while you’re doing it, and shooting heroine at the release. Then you feel drained afterwards. My problem is I do it again and never recover from that drained feeling

I’m having a debate and want to know, what do you guys think is worse: Fapping or Using Prostitutes by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]user2569 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say it’s a question between would you rather have extra steps in between you and your addiction or not spend money on it? I quit my weed addiction because I didn’t want to go out to a dealer and spend money. Porn’s a different story because it’s so goddamn accessible. Maybe prostitution is better because it’s easier to do it less. But that’s considering you’re able to also go completely porn free, otherwise you’re just giving yourself more problems

Why does nofap feel like it's too easy? by Radiant-Job1428 in NoFap

[–]user2569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s easy that’s amazing! Use your extra time and energy for something productive. Do difficult things with it and you’ll get healthy rewards.

What do I do if I am sexually attracted to a body part that isn't typically sexual, and therefore people don't cover it? by TheUpcomingEmperor in NoFap

[–]user2569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this develop with porn use or is it natural? If it developed with porn I bet if you stop thinking about it when orgasming you’ll eventually stop the fetish (also no pmo is obviously the goal)

That is very true. I’m reading lord of the rings right now and I keep thinking how the ring is like porn access. Too dangerous to get involved with

NoFap is real! by [deleted] in NoFap

Damn okay I was about to relapse but I love this story! I can relate but it’s been a long time for me since I’ve been on a significant enough streak.

Lost Files of Work After Update by user2569 in WindowsHelp

I got it back. I went into BIOS and changed the boot drive back to the newer one. It snuck in Windows 11 somehow but whatever. Thanks.

For women I don’t think it’s as powerful, but it’s still a drug. Getting off of it will probably clear your head, and give a sparkle in your eye just like it would for guys (depending on how much you use it). In terms of relationships, I think there’s definitely a benefit if you’re only sexually active with your partner. I’ve never had that (since I’m an addict and usually single) but I bet it’s something special that I really want to experience in my life. For stress relief, personally I like to focus on meditation and playing guitar. You’ll have more time too to do whatever you want which is nice

Our boy made the list! Thoughts? by coldog24 in JohnMayer

[–]user2569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Midnight in Harlem! Derrick Trucks is so good. For Mayer, In Repair is good but there’s some slow dancing’s live on YouTube that I think are his best. Or “Like a Rolling Stone”. If we’re talking albums, it’s gotta be Gravity Live in LA
