Just don't let it get in the way of RL. Thats when you know you have a problem.

Don't be really late to hot-dates because you are wanking, and sure as hell don't pass on sex for a good wank.

I went through a phase in a bad relationship where i was like this. I have moved on but still enjoy porn.

And you know what really helped me through it? I started watching porn with birds. It's now erotic, not mechanical.

P.S don't wank with your mates - i got stuck in that cycle for a long time - we were all doing it openly admitting our problem.

But it didnt help!

who in their right mind would do that? after being with a girl who was good in bed, i have trouble for a couple weeks even getting it up to wank and getting off. it just doesn't compare.

if you're not getting laid, it's perfectly natural and necessary to jerk it once or twice a week, no more though. i try to use the motivation that comes from not jerkin it for a few days by waiting til sunday, thus friday and saturday night i have the most motivation.

Ha ha, is it really such a big deal for you guys?

Lol, it's fine to bate it once a day. I try not to do it more than once. Sometimes less.

These forums are a hoot, lol

HAHAHAHA... after making this thread held out for 16 days was the longest I went without it in a long time.

I've learned some things that helped adjust my perspective:

Scientists attempted to conduct a study of how masturbating to pr0n affects men in their 20s, but the experiment was cancelled because no control groups could be found.
Interesting...

I've encountered countless internet users on this and other forums who fap all the time, and lead perfectly normal lives, and got to know the people I work with better and see that my habits I thought were unique are commonplace. I don't feel like a special snowflake with this issue anymore.

Jerking it to pics/vids is no worse than a mental image; a lot of the negative things I had associated with masturbation aren't dependent on it. I let go of the illusion of privacy, and am open about what i do and don't try to hide it. Not like I advertise it but it no longer feels like a dark secret that I am ashamed of. I am in control; I know I have the will power to skip it if I want to and each time I do it it is a free choice and theres nothing wrong with it.

From an evolutionary standpoint this makes perfect sense actually. When the most of human existance was a fight for survival, in between hunting, gathering, fighting off predators, building shelter, competing for mates, etc. there was no leaisure time. The moments to spare were used for sleeping, eating and mating. When we're not sleeping or eating (and no other immediate obligations in the way), we think about sex, and seek out a means for satifying out urges through sex or masturbation.

Masturbating is healthy - as long as you're not doing it 7 times a day and it's gwtting in the way of productivity it's fine. It would say it's perfectly normal for guys to masturbate 2-3 times a day - if you're young it could be even more!

Some of you who are focused on cutting down would do well to look into sexual Tao.

They believe that wasting semen is wasting energy - and that it's possible for a man to have multiple 'dry' orgasms. I would not recommend taking it to extremes however. I would recommend you let off steam once a month.

Actually masturbation will suck your energy out of your body. The change of testosterone to some other hormone that has a big name has been linked to baldness as well. It's completely true. It takes a little while for your body to renew its testosterone. Of course if your 16 its much different than if your 28. Younger people can replenish faster. I've been told that you should take your age and divide by 4. The result is how many days on average it takes to recover. From personal experience I find this to be true. I'm someone whose pretty sensitive to his body whether it be from the food I eat or masturbation. I think the affects are minimal and I've had good results with girls just minutes after wanking one so whatever...

It does affect your energy levels.

good OP

I don't really get it why this should be an issue for a PUA but it could be me..

I wank whenever I want to and on what I want to.. What's the problem? Nobody judges you for that.
