Serious You must abandon sex to overcome depression

[WarriorSkull]

I know i'm biting my time for now while i prepare myself. I do have an interest in Christianity and i'm reasonably knowledgeable, or at least i'm well read. I'm not an expert though, especially since i suffer from terrible memory problems and i'm not a particularly great study at this point.

I'm also not very keen to the modern Catholic Church, especially anything connected with Vatican II:

That's why i was trying to look more into Orthodoxy, but i figure once i'm inside a monastery it doesn't really matter. And if i'm compelled to learn a traditional language for any reason, Latin would be infinitely easier for me than Koine Greek since i'm a native Italian speaker.

I'm assuming you're American.

Kek im starting to enjoy @Fontaine threads, I think maybe you are having a bit TOO much TMS my nigga you are starting to sound like a unhinged prophet.

Kek, so much this. Fontaine would better be described as an anti-prophet. Do literally the opposite of whatever the fuck he says.

I thought they banned that electroshock shit.

Also, at least throw some practical advice, preferably one that doesn't involve electricity.

If you want soothing words, get out. You'll only get the bleak truth on this topic.

If you are extremely ugly, you must abandon sex. Clinging to sex (i.e. clinging to sexual desires, fantasies, and plots to get laid) will only destroy you, as your thirst will never be quenched in time or in a fully satisfying manner.

I used to be the most dysfunctional and the unhappiest man you could find in my country. Ever since I abandoned sex, stopped masturbating and got chemical, then physical (electroshock) treatment for my depression, I feel a lot better, I succeed in exams, I am able to read books, I have sought and obtained reconciliation with my family, basically everything has become incommensurablly better for me.

If you still want to cling to sex, notably through "fapping" and internet porn, let me warn you in great sincerity: the fires of Hell will rain down upon you until you find yourself in the same situation as a homeless heroin addict. If you want your sanity back, tell sex to get out of your head.

And it's entirely possible by the way. Do you really think that Catholic/Buddhist priests and monks, or prisoners in Nazi death camps masturbated? After some months of pain your brain finally understands it must give up on sexual pleasure.

The dopamine part I think is complete bullshit, but you're right about giving up on women.


Unless you're chad and unless you're young, you're a fucking idiot beyond all hope if you still care about women. It's not going to happen, ever.


Move on (if that's possible) or suffer, no one cares either way.

I dunno, scrambling your brain with electrotherapy so that you are happy sounds like pretty grade A cope to me. Fuck living outside the cave.

How is being obsessed with sex working for you so far?

I thought they banned that electroshock shit.

Electricity (TMS precisely) is only if you have chronically/pathologically low mood that can't seem to improve over time. It can give you the boost you need to start fixing things.

Practical recommendations: develop (maxx) everything that gives you pleasure and isn't related to sexuality. If it's food, start to cook your own tasty meals. If it's reading, read. If it's music, listen to music. If it's rock climbing, climb. If it's vidya, play.

Over time, as your brain is de-intoxicated of sexual pleasure, these activities will become ever more pleasurable.

What about those of us who still experience wet dreams and nocturnal emissions? If I don't fap then I just cum in my sleep.

 

[Mr100]

I feel nothing, but I do rapidly lower my gaze out of precaution. I don't want to reactivate my libido.

Then you're no incel - you are a voluntary celibate.

You have accepted that the extreme pleasures of sex enjoyed by functional males will never be yours and have programmed your mindset to disregard one aspect of your own biological and psychological needs.

High IQ tbh.

I swing between UMSTOW and not myself.

I have actually found that jerking off about 2-3 times a day as part of a routine helps drain the sexual energy out of my body. I am then able to do other things without thinking about sex all the time.

It would be easy if it was only about sex. But most of us crave for love - and life is so empty without love that everything else you do seems
worthless. If it was only about sex everybody would pay prostitutes for that. It's about constant loneliness that drains life from our veins. We want someone to love, friends to have fun with, rich social life... without that you can read books and watch TV shows and spend time with your family, but it's pointless. All normies are getting their social needs fullfilled, while we rot in loneliness and misery.

 

[Evildoer]

I keep trying to stop fapping and fail every time,

Exactly. I know i need it for better results at the gym, but just can't handle myself sometimes.

I have abandoned all hope to having sex with a 3D girl but I will have sex with a 2D girl. Also I like fapping to hentai and doujins
