Is there a book on getting out of masturbation addiction?
>>
>>24713838
Yes. Shittenshill translated by the faggot Max Lawton.
>>
Just keep doing it until you run dry, then you won't feel the need to anymore.
>>
masturbation is not an addiction, do you masturbate in public or walk away somewhere to start jerking off? No? Then you're not addicted, quit being a bitch.
>>
>>24713844
Not my experience. The more you do it, the more you want to do it, and the shorter the refractory period becomes.
>>
>>24713861
Opposite for me. I fapped three times this week and I can't again even if I wanted to. Maybe being over 40 helps.
>>
>>24713856
What a retard. Because I don’t take heroine in public and have to wait till I get home to take it, I can’t be addicted to it.
>>
>>24713883
Yes, an addiction implies inability to control or regulate except you clearly have some measure of control on it if you're not doing it in public. Have you ever known alcoholics or cigarette addicts? They find ways to drink/smoke in their daily routines until it becomes unconscious habit. Unless you're doing this you're not really addicted.
>>
>>24713901
different intensities of addiction exists. Because someone has the bare minimum self-control to not get arrested by doing it in public doesn't mean they can't be addicted. Almost no one in the world is addicted to anything by that criteria.
>>
>>24713838
Get a cat. Seriously. It fixed mine. I don’t remember the last time I did it. A pet will literally fix your life.
Also girls find it hot.

The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. Just substitute the idea of 'alcohol' to 'porn'.

Just jerk off thinking about your aunt naked. That oughta traumatize you for life.

Girls think men with cats are gay. If you want to attract chicks, get a dog, like a German shepherd.

Think outside the box, anon.
You got something that you're *good* at. Donate your sperm to the sperm clinic. If you can provide three samples a day, I'm sure they'll be tickled pink. Are you unaware its a decent paying job to jack off.

once? I'm good for more than one per day. You gotta milk that prostate to keep it healthy.

there's this, which i don't recommend. it ysed to get shilled heavily but now not so much. i suspect the people that pushed it never read it because it does not actually include any information on how to quit porn, it just goes on about how great the method is.
i'm assuming you mean a porn addiction. i don't think there's any reason to stop masturbating all together. it's natural and healthy to release. people are supposed to have a sex drive and repressing it entirely will have negative effects the same way giving over to it entirely does.
personally, i was never able to quit until after i got my first girlfriend. before, when i would quit, i'd be stuck with the thought that i would never experience intimacy again in any form (my addiction was specifically to audioporn, which is often a lot more focused on personal attention and the romanitc aspect of sex). the relationship lasted a month and then she ghosted me. i no longer feel that i'm missing all that much and, though i masturbate almost every day, i don't feel the need to watch porn. i hope this helps.

Exactly. I don't want to masturbate, but the temptation becomes so much that I lose self-control and do it anyways, feeling bad after it.
I'm sure this is how the people suffering from this problem feel and it completelly falls under your definition of addiction.

Epictetus
Seneca
Marcus Aurelius
Wolfram Von Eschenbach

But more importantly than reading these works is implementing the advice into your life. Living justly is about right action. Don't set goals for yourself that are longer than the present moment. Instead of telling yourself "I will not masturbate this week," or, "I will not masturbate this month," tell yourself, "I will not masturbate right now."

If you’re over 20, just quitting porn makes you start masturbating about once every three days, and sometimes only once a week.
So maybe you should read about porn addiction.

you don't need a book to get out of masturbation addiction
you just need to watch the feeling
I am being serious
this is hard to describe but it's a practice
I'll start with similes
you know how people go bird watching? they don't want to trap the birds or even feed them, usually. they only watch. if they see a rare bird, they're delighted; when it's gone, it's gone.
be a bird watcher over your own soul
imagine you're watching a game, or a race. you take your camping chair and your esky and you find a nice spot in the sun on the lawn and what do you do? watch.
set up your lawn chair and esky and watch yourself, anon.
where's the feeling to masturbate come from? what came before it? what comes after it? because, like the birds of the air, which fly in and out of view or racecars which speed from here to there and are gone again, so too are your feelings. they come in and go out. watch it happen!

>>24713838
Do this:
>Stop looking at titillating pictures and bodacious bodies (in other words, stop playing modded Skyrim)
>Get a hobby to take up your time
>Go to church and start praying at regular intervals
It's genuinely that easy.

I was addicted to heroin and I absolutely had to use while out and about, in train station toilet stalls, in libary toilets, train toilets etc. A large disabled toilet with no smoke detector was my favourite, I would smoke a line and hold in the hit until just a small vapour came out upon exhalation, and then hit my strong fruit smelling vape and blow out a hit to cover any of the bitter vinegary smell. Rinse, repeat, until no longer sick/high. Then I would run the hand-dryer while blowing vape into it until I felt like it no longer smelled, and then leave.

Get a job, get some hobbies, be involved in community events, join some interest groups, take on some personal projects

Masturbation addiction is a result of a chronically alone and individualistic lifestyle

I don't know what to think. I used to believe that porn wasn't a real addiction until I read pic related.
Most porn is not as expertly crafted as gambling machines. A huge portion of it comes from a community formed around sex and fetishes, made by artists or amateurs, not technocrats and stakeholders. What do those do? OnlyFans and Pornhub? Japanese games where you replay the same animation over and over? AI? I believe that what's addictive here isn't the sites or the even the content itself (though some goon/porn mommy videos come close to trying to fuck your mind MKUltra style, but I don't think we're there yet). I believe there is a way to make pornography truly addictive, but we haven't figured it out yet for some reason. But with the advances in AI maybe we'll soon hear about someone masturbating to death.
The biggest take away from the book is that the truly degenerate gamblers don't play to get rich, they play to keep playing. They enter a mental state where they melt away and cease to exist for a while. Money is not the reward, it's the fuel for their trance. They are burning away and they know this, but as soon as they are no longer in the furnace they start feeling pain. Do you know what kind of people end up here? Old lonely ladies, losers and cowards, people who had no idea these machines were meticulously designed to hold and keep their attention.
I recently started reading Eroticism by George Bataille, and what I take away from it is that people are lonely and afraid of death, and non-reproductive sex is one way for them to overcome this state (discontinuity) temporarily. "Continuity" for him is what lies beyond the individual: it is existence itself, it is what death is. The gambling machines have the same effect of "killing" an individual and making them melt into a continuity that lasts as long as their money allows them.
What I'm trying to say is that I don't think porn addiction is a real thing yet, not for the vast majority of porn consumers. I think it's still acceptable to call it a "compulsion" (although academia and the psychology field and le experts are absolutely fucking pozzed, either being paid for or totally insane, and are not to be trusted at all).
I believe that what makes you act like this is
>a total lack of purpose or meaning in life
>fear of life and death
>constant bombardment of irrelevant and disturbing information
>low self-esteem
Getting a job, having a girlfriend, being a normalfag wont cure you. I don't think a single book will cure you either. When I read Ted K I thought it related to this too. There's nothing to do, nothing to keep your mind busy...
Do you think that if the infrastructure that keeps alive the internet and electricity collapsed tomorrow because nukes started flying and now you're in WW3, you'd feel so compelled to jack off? And then you'd start experiencing excruciating pain and nausea if you didn't cum?

Watching porn is healthy because otherwise your own fantasy devolves into the disgustingly perverse of people you know while jerking off.
