Has anyone had any success with that?My problem is that literally everything that could've went wrong in relation to getting a relationship went wrong for me.>ugly and repulsive looks>quite librarian personality>too high standards for the girl in terms of looks and personality>I genuinely have little desire for romance or sexI'm 20 years old and a virgin, and as I will most likely never have sex in my life I'm thinking of stopping masturbating completely, which is my current addiction DESU. I once tried to become so mysogynistically repulsed by women that I lost my desire to masturbate at all, but that lasted for only about a week a year ago. I was also recently prescribed zoloft which is supposed to lower your sexual desire, so I'm pretty hopeful.
>>35016272Not forever, but I managed to do it for eight months. I just avoided anything that could trigger lust. I didn't look at women at all and I avoided being near them. I would change seats if one sat next to me I would cross the street if I saw one up ahead in the corner of my eye. I also avoided touching my penis. No more scratching. I would only touch it in the shower for a few seconds and that's it. It was a good strategy. When I decided to go back to masturbating, I had to make a conscious decision.
>>35016292I can't remember the last time I was attracted to some girl I saw on the street. I masturbate mostly to ecchi art and hentai. Wouldn't work for me.
>>35016300Ok, so it's even easier then. Just avoid erotic material online. Preferably stop coming to red boards even the ones that aren't strictly pornografic.If boils down to removing your existing habits. You might fumble a bit at first, but, if you keep at it (avoid touching your ween and looking at erotica), it should be smooth sailing after a month or so of nofap.
>>35016292Not sure why you would want to avoid women completely
I can usually go about a week before I give in, but I definitely do notice a difference, you give off such intense masculine energy that you are irresistible to women
>>35016272I have to stop because I jerked it until I gave myself tennis elbow in both arms I can't bate anymore, the pain isn't worth it. I've tried humping things but that just isn't relaxing. I bang my wife 4 or 5 times a week so that helps. My advice, wait until you have injured yourself to the point of physically being incapable of masturbation
>>35016327I wish it really worked like that but it doesn't. A heavy smoker who wants to quit feels like they have to smoke at least once per day or they'd feel physically ill and all their thoughts would be consumed by wanting to smoke, same with me. At first I feel fine but then my crotch just starts feeling itchy and I can't think of anything else besides gooning for three hours minimum.>>35016342Don't care about that. I just feel like if I'll never have a girlfriend then I shouldn't waste my time on anything sexual at all.
Zoloft doesn't lower sexual desire and in fact makes you last longer
>>35016272>I'm 20 years old and a virgin, and as I will most likely never have sex in my lifeYou are 20, you know nothing, you have a lot of time to turn things around. Why are there so many "it's over" threads on this board from people under 25 lol. Like go do something with your life. it hasn't even started yet.
>>35016272After 2-3 weeks you no longer care about it. You do get strong urges but you gain the ability to just ignore it and move on.
>>35016272I quit cold turkey in summer of 2024 at 24 yrs old and haven't relapsed.No gf yet, prob never, but my anxiety has halved and I can have normal conversations with people nowadays.
