Hello /adv/, I'm 21 y/o (M) I know I have a problem with masturbation, is an addiction. I want to stop doing it, but I have a problem: I'm an active member of the rule34 site. I do things like correct tags, upload art from artists I like, etc. And to clarify, normally don't get horny while doing this. Also, I draw +18 fanarts on commissions. I've tried to stop watching porn (my record is 2 months) but eventually come back to it. Does this 2d porn (r34 and fanarts) have something to do with the goon relapse?
>>34333516You shouldn't be looking or drawing anything softcore. I disable all images on this site.
Stop gooning is for losers, at the end you'll be fighting a war without a motive. Find a girl, fuck her everyday, and you'll forget about R34, porn and gooning
We all relapse eventually, whether curiosity to new content, or just to revisit that one video that made us feel something...I've found that once you just let it all out and hit post nut clarity, you realize that what you were stroking to wasn't worth it. Definitely looking at any form of images can trigger a relapse, doesn't matter if 2d, 3d, drawings, etc. Just train yourself to slowly block it out mentally. Distract yourself with something else. Find obvious flaws in the images to disgust yourself (extra or missing fingers if AI, wrinkles or zits where they shouldn't be, etc.)It's a double edged sword though: porn and hentai give immediate gratification without the drawbacks of actual sex or relationships, but also subconsciously rework your mind and eventually you won't be able to get hard without your favorite content (or even find real women attractive eventually). Moderation is key, I feel. Don't go overboard and goon non-stop. Once or twice here and then is encouraged. Going cold turkey will just make you relapse and frustrated. And as previous poster mentioned, find a real life partner to be with. It helps a lot.
Do it without masturbating to any of it, that's when you become patrician art collector and not just retarded shit taste gooner>normally don't get horny while doing this.Right. Masturbate to your imag or get an actual femoid to channel the lust unto. Watch porn without masturbing. Ez
>>34333516You are 21 and young. The damage is still reversible. You don't have to stop gooning its normal to do it but pornographic media is not. It will permanently hinder your interactions with real life women and your standards will be impossible to reach to satisfy you. Quit porn.
>>34333516Yeah you can. You can age.
