Does no-fap really give you powers and changes your brain, or is it just a torture for your balls with no benefits?

My family has history of ball cancer. I am required to fap.

>>507409517 (OP)
Yes

All it does is unlock a rape urge that becomes extremely difficult to suppress the more you delay jerking off.

>>507409517 (OP)
it does, yes. but i lost lifting power

Experienced gooner here.
No fap with no plan is actually counter productive. There is no point in sitting alone in your bedroom all day with the uncontrollable urge constantly nagging at you.
Instead of focusing on not touching your pee pee you need to focus on actually doing shit.

Jerking off is as natural as breathing. Porn is the true enemy

>>507409899
What's your experience with it? Are you more confident/manly?

made me feel submissive and lethargic after a while
it's like there was no spunk left in me
which is funny because it was the opposite

>>507409517 (OP)
Its not that nofap gives you powers, its that gooning saps you of all your power.

Currently on nofap/no porn and for the first time in a long time i'm actually remembering my childhood again.

>>507409517 (OP)
I'm guessing to a certain degree it makes you more outgoing, even subconsciously because your brain is no longer being tricked into thinking it is successfully mating by looking at porn at jerking off
and of course it also makes you more sensitive and excited by real life women, assuming you can go long enough for your dopamine circuitry to unfuck itself
on the other hand, it might also make you more prone to opening yourself up to ugly/fat women ... is that really the kind of 'success' you want to have?

so for me jerking off is self-consolation and also a preventative measure, from having "thirst goggles" and fucking up my life

Try nofap for a week when you have nothing going on in your life. Document your mood and thoughts. Do the same thing the next week but with your regular masturbating frequency. The difference in quality of life is night and day.

it's a totally pointless meme, chad cooms all the time with no ill physiological effect, it is in fact important to keep fluids circulating in your testes, prostate and seminal glands and clear out waste, I'd suggest also eating a lot of garlic

im funnier, more social, my brain is ALIVE. but i lost some strength on my lifts.

its not just no fap - its also no sex. no orgasms allowed

>You guys are so weak. You let fapping control your life
t. weak-willed faggot who thinks that one week without fapping reawakened his inner warrior and put him back in touch with his childhood self. You're fucking pathetic and probably way more porn addicted than anyone in here ever was

weird, you should have more strenght as there's more testosterone flowing

>>507409517 (OP)

you have to do something with the energy (google or chatgpt "sexual transmutation meditation". this helps with quitting porn as well) otherwise you're just going to walk around like a sexually frustrated retarded lookin like theres a jar of peanut butter stuck up your ass and then eventually cave on some retarded porn spree

>>507412436
yea that was the case for a few weeks, but suddenly in the 4th week my lifts just tanked. i lost 2 lbs too.

>>507409517 (OP)
it just makes you way hornier and the longer you do it the more depraved you get, until simple even innocuous things turn you on, eventually you can cum to the slightest arousal and stuff like scents and brief interactions with beauty can make you go rape

>>507412436

fapping causes depression

>t. Prisoner 135, Cell Block H.

>>507409517 (OP)
neither. longest streak was 600 days. less horny thoughts, a bit more mental clarity, and you get the good feeling that you're not encouraging demons into your life. vast amount of benefits people claim are exaggerated. still, do it though.

>>507409799
The opposite happens with me. When I don't masturbate, my libido actually drops. When I am constantly doing it, I do it more.

>>507412729
what, did you only go a few weeks or something?

The less you fap, the less sleep you require.

>>507409517 (OP)
>or is it just a torture for your balls with no benefits?
This. It gives temporary energy-boosts but they level off after a few weeks and you end up just torturing yourself. I got an injurty/medical condition because of it and looking back now I wish I would have busted way more nuts in life before it couldn't do it without pain...

Men are their own worst enemy and constantly produce bullshit advice. There is no shame in cumming. There really isn't. Don't let retards try to shame you because they're looking for an ego boost of superiority any way they can.

>>507409517 (OP)
It makes me more willing to navigate the bullshit decision matrix that is my wife's libido so that I can get my dick wet, call that positive or negative.

>>507412580
You might have aids, has your boyfriend been with any unsavory characters lately?

If you have a wife willing to fuck, you don't need to masturbate.

>torture
If you think not jerking off for a while constitutes "torture" you are too soft and weak to be alive.

No it makes you crash out

>>507409517 (OP)
Yes take a few days to a few years depending on your retardation

also my hair is looking full and lushious.

its worth the trade off, losing some strength for all the benefits

Masturbation is only an issue if you're jerking off an inordinate amount of times. Like even daily is kinda pushing it. On the other hand nofap is basically just bullshit, and ultimately doomed to failure by technicality. You don't get any benefits or anything, all that happens is that eventually you'll start having nocturnal emissions. And not amusing wet dreams like when you were going through puberty, these won't have any dreams associated period. Erections are common in REM sleep and when you're rolling around in your sleep fully torqued and haven't released in months you'll accidentally fire off. Your "reward" for nofap is getting to jump out of bed in the middle of the night so that you only cream your underwear and not your sheets.

I'm 19 months nofap/noCoom. In that time I had my first child. Basically the last time I jizzed got my wife pregnant. I definitely saw a lot of benefits after month 6, after about 4 months of "flatlining". Then when the babby was born I probably liquidated all benefits to deal with that. But I was functioning just fine on ~2 hours of sleep for weeks at a time. I avoided any noticeable hormone crash that comes with being around a pregnant wife and newborn. No fat gain or muscle loss, and still able to get by with minimal sleep. I think fapping would probably tank my energy to deadbeat levels now. Plus I kinda want to hold the next load for creating the 2nd kid.

Makes you stressed, angry and irritated

I think it's a case of use or lose it, as it is with many other parts of the human body. But it has to be balanced as well.

>>507413393
Period week always breaks me.

>>507414100
You haven't had sex in the almost year since your kid was born?
Is everything OK man?

Can confirm this >>507413060
Was on NoSleep due to newborn waking constantly and could still complete workouts the next day.

>>507412954
People underestimate the spiritual benefits. Probably not worth explaining on pol...

i have regular sex and jerk off. i dont see any issues?

how is jerking off bad but having sex is ok?

>>507414988
No the vageen got 3rd degree tears from the birth. It might be safe now to P in V but then the oh ahh cooom is not worth energy loss.

>>507410070
>No fap with no plan is actually counter productive.
Your plan needs to involve both physical exercise and actual spiritual practice (whatever that might be for you). No plan will last long term without this. It's a spiritual fight.

There's no point telling most anon not to do this, they don't have the fight to stop, because they don't see the fight for what it really is. When you mention it and any anon disagrees or gets belligerent, leave him to his choices.

You will fail a lot if you really try to do this. Be kind to yourself and keep going.

Best to fap less often and stop with porn.

No fap is pointless unlike you enjoy it that way.

I did once and when i finally coomed my nut was yellow. Best way is to fap once a week I guess

You need to ejaculate regularly to keep your system flushed out otherwise you can get prostate cancer.

>>507409517 (OP)
Level 9000 basement wizards are rumored to have claimed an entire year of nofap can give you x-ray vision and the ability to squirt mayonnaise from your eyes. Incredible stuff really

>>507409517 (OP)
Completely pointless meme. If you literally jerk off all day, OK cut back but other than that don't bother.

>>507409517 (OP)
Saves you for "her". But if you know who "she" is you can just let loose a little.

It's addictive though, controlling that mad impulse. Lets you dream build really seriously.

Fapping all the time turns you into the pic you posted.

>>507415780
>No fap is pointless
Why would it be pointless to retain and circulate the most vital energy in the universe within you? Honest question.

I've never heard any serious answer - imo you can tell that the subtext of every answer is really biased by the frustration of just how difficult it is to actually hold onto it.

No fap doesn't give you superpowers. But if you fap a lot consistently and daily you will develop constant brainfog.

>>507409517 (OP)
Hitting my one year no fap tomorrow. Part of why I did it was one of these threads where someone said after a year they had much better social skills, were more assertive, and more easily able to maintain extended eye contact. I can confirm this, I also have gotten in better shape, and when I do fuck my cock feels absolutely amazing and my girl explicitly notices how much thicker and harder it is overall. Downside has been I can find myself getting frustrated faster in general but the frustration also disseminates fast. I also regularly watch cam girls while doing WFH stuff, so not totally abandoning smut entirely (altho I basically never watch actual porn anymore). I dunno, I find it hard to believe I made it a year (I was a degenerate, VR porn, would fap multiple times a day sometimes). I dunno, glad to answer any specific questions. Happy fathers day!

i trooned the fuck out and quit jerking off entirely. now it hurts to get an erection. you don’t have these self inflicted fuck ups. take advantage of your benis. power up then break shit.

What energy? The actual semen? Sperm just dies after awhile and is replaced. You fags are crystal girl tier with this shit

>>507410070
> Instead of focusing on not touching your pee pee you need to focus on actually doing shit.

I live by a rock face and just fucking jackhammer and drill out the rock all day making a tunnel into the mountain. So far the tunnel is ~ 50 feet deep.

I literally have nothing else to do. It’s either just mine all day or fap. This will probably be my legacy, I will leave behind a sick cave system one day.

>>507416808
>You fags are crystal girl tier with this shit
You think it's a mark of intelligence to be a cynical material reductionist? This was in vogue a century ago - you're still falling for the psyops that those plebs fell for?

Am I also expected to laugh off any notion of God or divinity? Is that reserved for "crystal girls" too?

>>507417111
So you don't have an answer. How about coming up with something instead of this self righteous posturing. Fuck off

>>507409517 (OP)
I end up doing even more and more degenerate things on nofap peaking at maximum abhorrence about a month in.

>>507416253
If it works for you. Just nothing wrong with a nice coom from imagination a few times a month. And like I said. When I once did it my nut come out legit yellow.


Fapping less works for me.But I get your point. You do you

>>507409517 (OP)
NoFap premises never made sense to me.

Either semen retention is good for you or it isn't.

If I don't nut daily, I cannot ride my Supersport bike without significant pain. Do the balls just continue to fill? Wtf thats torture.

No that's a bunch of dog shit like monastic practices that they used to convince the village cucks to do.

Chronic compulsory gooning is probably bad for you in multiple ways though

>>507417347
I am asking to what extent your dismissal extends to so I know what type of thinker I'm dealing with here. I can't answer your question without knowing general facts about your materialist framework first.

Does this dismissal extend to God and divinity too? What degree of materialist are you?

>>507412973

are you using porn to fap?

>>507413180

I felt better about myself and had more energy after 2 weeks. Personally never gone longer than 3 weeks. We're sexual creatures.

>>507416808
>he doesnt believe in crystals
lol

>>507415780
can you or anyone else in this thread even fap without porn?

>>507409799
That goes away. It's just your body going through a kind of withdrawal and readjusting to a new normal, same kind of shit that happens when you quit a drug. It's a long process.
>>507410070
The idea is that constantly fapping kills your urge to actually do shit, you won't just suddenly have the motivation you've been missing by stopping, it takes months of not doing it to come out the other side. Slowly but surely it drives you crazy to just sit around and consoom. Brain starts working better, you've got energy, motivation, you want to take risks again, be social etc. Pretty sure a lot of younger dudes have actually never known this normalcy because they grew up on ez and constant porn access. You can try to severely cut back, but it's going to keep you miserable and "hooked" longer, harder to not fall back into bad habits.
This is why dieting is so difficult for a lot of folks, might actually be easier to starve yourself than to adhere to a strict diet.

>>507415594
You can have sex and retain at the same time. Just don't spill the cup of Hermes. Train kegels and do a reverse kegel during sex

by getting off the phone, or PC or tablet, and focusing your energy other physical things you won't have the energy to do it. it's just motivation issues for people. Like stop drinking beer all the time and eat shit foods. I always like comparing porn and fapping to consuming goyslop.

>>507409517 (OP)
its not the "nofap" itself, its the mindset

next time you are with your dick on your hand, and you're still soft after browsing porn for 30-40 min... you could have spent that time doing cardio so you can look better for real women, or working on a side project that gives you money

>>507411171

did it other week. honestly feels much better when you nut and you don't really get any of that post nut regret feeling. obviously something has to make ya horny enough. just a simple image on the 4chans can start that arousel

>>507418777

Celibate body and lustful mind creates physical problems. I've personally only encountered issues when lacking mental purity

>>507409517 (OP)
I've been generally doing no cum for a few years now, I still cum maybe once every month or two via masturbation or by wet dreams. However i truly feel much more energized by not spilling my seed. Instead I'll edge and use that energy for cardio or the gym or flirting with women. I've also lost a lot of weight and notice I binge eat the day after cumming to regain nutrients, similar to a hangover.

I'm also in my 30s, which I don't know if it'd have been possible when I was younger although if I did the gains would be significant. Maybe I'm a narcissist but constantly improving my physique and having a bigger dick from lower body fat is more rewarding to me than the momentary release.

>>507413180
That's because the most of the actual problem is porn and the high frequency, not jerking off altogether. Ideally you would be abstinent for several months and then reintroduce fapping a couple-few times a week, hopefully be getting laid at least occasionally by then.
You have much better relationships with women when it takes work to empty your balls too. When you're no longer adjusted for instant hypersexual stimulation entirely on your terms with seemingly infinite options, you struggle with women for getting in the way of that IRL, they require work, but the reward is much bigger. You also struggle with only using porn/only fapping because a lot of shit is missing from the equation. Shit we need. Human connection. Physical touch. Acceptance.

It's like what pure isolated fructose does to your system and blood sugar vs. consuming that same amount of fructose via a whole food. One just temporarily quells your appetite and the other actually nourishes you. Fapping to porn is like consuming processed food. Should be an occasional treat.

>>507420290
I'll also add that it WILL make you more confident, especially if you've transfered that energy into your goals. It will also make you more aggressive and short tempered, although not to an extreme. Simply a dgaf attitude and being sure of your own opinions and not caring about the bullshit of others. Women will pick up on this. Yes I'm still socially awkward at times but I don't really care so much and I can talk to anyone if needed without stress.

Semen retention has been practiced for millenia and you're holding yourself back by spilling it constantly. Especially nowadays when sperm counts are obliterated by our synthetic society.

>>507409517 (OP)
It doesn't do anything. What you have is a gaggle of retarded faggots, spiritual niggers, who are looking for some external cause for what they are, and because they're retaded they end up listening to gurus who are often just as retarded as they are, and they always point the way to some sort of external cause so you don't have to confront that you are what you are because it's what you are. So its always something like video games, porn, I think the newest one is "seed oils", whatever it is, like and subscribe to my channel and do this one simple trick and you'll be a different man eventually, then it doesn't work and off to the next grift. They're retards so they always pick something they have in common with the people they wish they were more like, every man more successful than them likes seeing naked tits too but somehow it didn't ruin their lives, but did yours.

>>507409517 (OP)
No-fap gives you erectile dysfunction if you do it for years and years. Your prostate is a muscle, and if you don't exercise it, it will shrivel away and die.

>>507421743
You couldn't be more wrong. Seed oils are absolutely disastrous to your health and are the primary reason l, along with refined sugars that Americans are obese. Vidya and fapping can be argued to be ok in moderation but daily are not.

Sex involves another person and is a mutual transfer, jerking it is just dumping your essence out.
Or for the non-schizos out there, being able to ensure regular access to pussy means you are somewhat socially regulated, whereas there are no such guardrails for coomers.
