Convince me to stop watching porn

I've been watching porn and jacking off to it daily for over a decade. It doesn't affect my day to day life at all and I enjoy it.
I have a gf and a job worth making a career out of.
Are there any good reasons to stop?
Any success stories or experience?

Let's stop talking about our masturbation habits.

Then don't respond to the thread

You should be shooting into your lady.

I do... Constantly...
I've fucked her 4 times in one day, and still watched porn after she went to bed.

You jerk off room will start to smell like cum and mold. Also you get one of your hands really dirty from doing it.

Nah... I jerk off in the living room, it has enough space and ventilation that smell will never be an issue

Then keep on jerking off what's the worry?

Sounds to me like you just have an overactive sex drive.

Sometimes I wonder if it's a mental cop-out and if I'm missing something better like having more self control.

I'm curious if anyone here has experience with it

you have to pick and choose your vices user. being a chronic masterbator is probably better than a heroin addict

>like having more self control
I can tell you one thing it;s hard as hell and takes a long time just to get that instinct to jerk off out of your head.

There's no doubt about that... It seems like the porn side is self fulfilling though. It seems like the porn just fuels my drive, it never truly satisfies it

That's why I want to know if it's worth it

shouldn't be that bad, there's probably someone fapping as I write this

Yes it's worth it you get clearer thinking and much more energy

Are you speaking from experience?

Yes

But its hard the first couple of weeks sense you still get the horny feeling to jerk it

Were you addicted prior to stopping?

>Were you addicted prior to stopping
Yes to rape and loli

Not actual cp I meant loli hentai

Giving a shit

Did you have withrdrawls?

Save your passion for your lady. No need to shame yourself by abusing your meat. Just relax and rest your dick and do something productive instead. Jacking fills you with negative energy.

>withrdrawls
Of course I was jerking off to fake rape and cartoon children. So I felt to guilty to do it again. So now when I jerk off I usually feel very degenerate and start to curse myself rapidly.

I spent the last 7-10 years being completely apathetic and numb.

I meant withdrawals like lack of sleep, cold sweats, lack of concentration, that sort of thing

U ok bro?

Try going without it then, benefits are yuge. The way I stopped is that I looked at it like porn was making me it's bitch. Like a drug I couldn't go a couple days without it. Fuck that. I'm no one's bitch faggot.

Then I stopped that shit.

Watch out though, after you go through flatline phase, you're going to be popping boners in the wrong places.

I got one in the gym a week ago, hot ass girl bent over in front of me.

>Now the only place I see hot girls are outside and the occasional pics from /pol (NOT /GIF)

I don't really feel ashamed. What do you mean negative energy?

>lack of sleep: checked
>cold sweets: Nope
>Lack of Concentration: Checked

*>cold sweats: Nope

Nah man, was naive and got fucked over by family and the ex's.. Then something snapped and I stopped giving a fuck about anyone but myself

Get ahead of it bro

How long have you stopped for?
How long did they last?

That's easier said than done, but I'm trying. I'm wondering if this is the last piece

About 2 days but thats mostly because when I was jerking it off it was during the night

About 6 months ago went two months, watched porn FUCKING ONCE and for a whole month was back at it porning it. Was off and on for a week. Now I've been off.

I did break once like a month ago, but luckily I didn't get back on it the next day. It's sucks in a sense cause porn is awesome. But honestly the gains are better.

You get a dope kind of strength from going without it.

Well it sounds like you've got some bigger issues in your life that you've got to sort out first. Waggin the meat is probably a minor symptom of something else weighing on you.

This and meditation can def become your final pieces. That shit combined is pretty big. Saving your sexual energy and then using it to meditate is pretty deep.

Just gotta try yourself user

i get too horny to function if i don't blow at least a load or two a day
i don't know how people can deal with it

And when I said saving sexual energy that just means like not cumming from jacking it and no-porn.

Fucking your girl doesn't effect that. That you can go for all day.

What were the gains for you?

That's where I'm at now

Yeah I do, but that doesn't change anything. I've still face this one.

I got more energy. After flatline phase (which lasted about a month) I started getting erections super easily from the vaguest stimulation. Like looking at a waitresses ass for a bit, then bam it's growing.

I feel smarter, perhaps it's because now that I'm not watching porn I use my imagination or memories of ex's to whack it (don't let yourself cum if possible).
With using your imagination for sex (I'm super horny so it's all day sometimes) you're basically working your brain. Creating images in your head increases intelligence and creativity. When you're porning it you're consuming not producing.

Stronger in the gym.

Way more time in life. (If you whack it 1 hour a day that adds up.)

When I was with my gf and I did no-porn for about a month it made me appreciate her even more in the bedroom, felt better. If you thought she was hot before, try no-porning it. You'll rape your girl

I've been single for about 6 months now, so I wasn't straight enough emotionally to game til about 2 months ago. But now that I am, every hot girl I see I'm on, if you aren't satiating yourself in front of your computer, you're going to chase the pussy and get it. Because you want it more.

Yeah this problem along with noporning it aggravates it, that's why controlling it makes you strong.

clarity, energy, productivity and random boners

How about performance in bed? Any difference there?

You end up lasting longer. In all honesty it felt like I was coming quicker the first few weeks at times. But in the long run it made me last longer. Also your dick is more raging.

Any pot holes worth noting?

It's hard, you'll make excuses to cheat, aggression will build initially until you control it, the beginning is the hardest for the most part. Porn is easy to flip on. You gotta break the habit of flipping it on. Keep it off.

When the urge comes, acknowledge it, then do something else.

If you turn it on, turn it off.

It's easy to do. It's easy not to do.

its really worth doing nofap

It really is worth it, nofap is great
