I'm going to start a competing movement where I also deny myself a small pleasure as a means to enlightenment. It's called "no candy."

Day 434 of no candy: I was able to levitate my controller to me so I could keep binge playing video games while sitting on the toilet.

Your body won't let you succeed at nofap, nocandy, and nogames all at the same time because it knows it would disintegrate into pure god-energy.
Teach me master

Listen to my body? It wants dopamine.

Look how much happier he is.

Depressing how we're all just sad little creatures who ritualize anything to make life bearable.

NoFap is so powerful that bro invented a new religion by day 5 - Chrislam

- Playing both sides so that you always come on top and maximise your chances of going to heaven
  
  This is brilliant
Imagine what the world would look like if Hexbear did NoFap for 5 days -

"I relapsed"

Sounds like 5 days of edging to me.

right? Like, masturbate if you feel the need. It's not really taking a break if you are still thinking and talking and posting about it. Sounds more like cold turkey withdrawal than anything. Maybe they should consider just introducing a slightly longer interval between sessions.

there is a correlation with men who ejaculate less than 21 times per month and an increased risk of prostate cancer

~~I believe it's a marginal increase in risk.~~
31% decreased risk and 1 in 8 American men get diagnosed. It's actually more optimal to do 4-7 times/wk compared to less. I wanted to be a contrarian and say you don't have to, and you don't, but it might be worth looking into (the link in bio).
- 4-7 ejaculations per week is optimal in decreasing prostate cancer risk?
- nofap is over. now we're opti-fapping. i have a browser extension that opens and closes a porn tab automatically so i can time my JO sesh to the second. this will allow me to live forever.

Know what? I'm gonna see how long I can go with out fa- I relapsed.

No fap is a way for fascists to worm itself into impressionable men's minds using religious-mystical hangups regarding sex as a Trojan horse, if you're walking around low key horny everywhere seeing the sex you're attracted to as evil trying to tempt you, it's easier to manipulate you for all sorts of horrific nonsense. Of course you felt a placebo sort deal of better not having sex nor fapping, you basically at a subconscious level see it as worse than murder since you're in the western death cult, and the poor people you want to sex as objects, an extension of masturbation basically.

Daoism: the universe is all interconnected forces intermingling with each other in an eternal dialectic, every part contains something of the whole, try to work with and redirect these moving forces and trends instead of running headfirst into them. The lock creates the thief, trying too hard to prevent something will only cause it to happen more certainly
Internet Misogynists: ok so your body must be kept separate from the world and pure at all costs, always deny your bodily desires and prevent any outlet, violently oppose any natural urges, got it
Daoism: how could you possibly think this is what i meant?
Internet Misoginists: another certified (non-)banger

Just get on Spiro if you hate your dick and libido this much jeez

oof i know right, shit aint worth the hassle at this point

I have gone without sexual activities for longer than this by accident lmao. If you seriously can't stop for like 6 days, you genuinely have a problem.

that's exactly what "nofappers" believe and also it's not true.
- like come on this is just like when people look at incels and are like "yeah these guys are preternaturally unfuckable permavirgins who can't be allowed to exist in the same society as normal folk" like their weird sexual beliefs are extreme examples of attitudes that are completely mainstream that you've done nothing to deconstruct and you don't even recognize it aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

skill issue lmao nofap is easy as hell just become traumatized to the point that sexual topics or thoughts make you too depressed to masturbate

Renounce nofap, link in bio.

It should've been simply titled "I fapped"

Also you can see him preparing his fap hand the day previous

In my experience I could never square the circle about PMO being a false pleasure after reading Easy Peasy over and over. I never felt any more clearheaded, it never effected my ability to engage with a partner, and it never made me less motivated to find a partner. I don't think just find a partner 4Head is a good idea for my quality of life. I don't feel any less capable of engaging with my career. My lifts don't go down. I still talk to my friends. I even went to a therapist to talk about it and he said his clients who no longer suffer manage to find a balance in their life, not that they're able to break the shackles.

I even looked at all the studies that 4chan likes to throw around and came away thinking that the claims about gray matter and other brain chemistry were not as concrete and substantiated as one might be led to believe. For example, the conclusion of one study made no claim that it was reducing the gray matter of the brain because the experiment wasn't designed to differentiate those with already less gray matter who might be thereby be predisposed to liking porn or something. There was one about how it acts similar to cocaine, but it showed how harmful cocaine is in the sense that it imitates things like orgasm and eating. Another one claimed that internet addiction should be a DSM-V umbrella for more specific ways to engage in harmful activities on the internet like gambling, gaming, porn, etc. not that porn was specifically in some psychiatric black hole (or something you couldn't use a therapist to engage with).

Meanwhile there are things I can do with significantly less effort that have a much larger effect on my inter personals and brain chemistry: nutrition, reading, sleep hygiene, meditation, lifting, helped people in need, etc. have all clearly and tangibly increased my quality of life. Orgasm is a compulsion for me and I like to maximize the pleasure from it, sure. Is it clearly and obviously harming me? No. For me, hearing that religiosity is more correlated with feeling like you have a problem than frequency of masturbation was telling. I just stopped caring and it stopped weighing down my mind. I gave it my full and undivided attention for months and walked away from nofap.

holy shit chris griffin

we appreciate his service
