Is there any real benefits to nofap? I keep trying to stop masturbating

Yeah the placebo effect is very real

nofap? not exactly. whats really important is no porn.

most people doing nofap have the ability to get sexual release regularly, either through an existing partner or future ones. so doing nofap simply makes them more motivated to work on those relationships and other htings.

however if you can't get laid in general, nofap will just make you really horny.

no porn though will help heal your brain so you arent addicted to porn again, which can HELP you with women but you still need to be willing to put in the effort.

its not a fix all. its one part of a bigger puzzle of your lifestyle

So there's not really any point to it?

The real thing is to not use porn so youbcan reverse or mitigate the physical changes it's b made in your brain. The nofap part if it is sort of just a logical necessity, because if you keep fapping, 90% of the time you'll relapse into porn.

As to the benefits - I've certainly had some. I feel more motivated to do things and my mood is better. It also fixes my porn-induced ED, and restores sensitivity to my dick. I guess whether there are benefits will vary from person to person.

In my understanding though, porn is like a drug, and stopping use will have similar effects to stopping real drugs, which are usually positive [after an immediate set of negative once].

Just my 2c

It's christian propaganda, just like YBOP and kellogs corn flakes.

Moderation. Masturbate moderately. My sweet spot is about once a week, often on sundays, after the friday/saturday night pickup chance is wasted. It's healty and actually feels great to feel your horniness build up with the days. And when you do fap, it feels amazing and actually special. There's really no point in being a compulsive masturbater that goes through the days totally depleted of sexual energy. I think that probably affects the way you relate to everyone and everything.
On the other hand, I see no point in cutting cold turkey forever. After about ten days you'll start to cum in your underwear while you sleep. So your body will actually be fapping for you, and most times you won't even remember or enjoy it

I fap once a day to porn and fuck the gf on the weekend when I see her ,been jacking off to porn for like 15 years and it's never done me any harm
