Books to stay motivated and find the strength necessary to succeed at NoFap?

Just have sex with someone.

At awe with the number of sex-addicts in this thread. Is Yea Forums truly the board of degenerate catamites?

>catamites

Lmao, NoFappers are typically hetero. There is no need to be a porn addict when grindr exists.

Is this just no porn or is it no fap too? I'm willing to try

imo noporn is the only beneficial one
fapping is good as long as you've got some self-control; great for your imagination

You don't know what falseflagging is.

Whatever that would be, it must have some analogy to schizophrenically angry music, and other things on the daily cultural diet of the sexually frustrated and the socially inept. This is not to knock Newton for his Purity, but unless you have a Principia gestating within, there is no possible point to it.

Disregard the hedonists in this thread. Read meditations by Aurelius. You are on the right path brother. Renounce the flesh and you will know peace.

>Renounce the flesh and you will know peace.
You try to deny the fact that flesh is an essential and inseparable part of you. Trying to renounce it will only lead to frustration and self-inflicted torture, and is fundamentally misguided and delusional. Embrace the flesh, recognize who you are, and proceed from there, instead of pursuing ideals which are unsubstantiated and all-around detrimental. No-fap is a good thing, but only as long as you don't do it because you're captivated by a nonexistent heavenly ideal, but rather from your own volition, the desire to gain self-control by understanding yourself and how pornography and masturbation has affected your life, and what could be the alternative.

Listen to this user I recommend you to read some Nietzsche and his views on asceticism

The flesh is part of my temporal existence. What you call torture I call medicinal.

clueless

play god if you want, it
s probably fun, but your ideal is a spook

This, a scholarly gentlemen masturbates to his own ongoing fantasies

The only reason I've been able to succeed at nofap (3 months strong so far) is that I fell for a girl and I want to perform at peak level for her. For years I could never do it for myself, but I can do it for her now. I guess self-improvement is really about devoting yourself to some cause outside of your own personal pleasure. As for book recs, Infinite Jest and anything by Christopher Lasch are in line with this idea.

I'm writing more and better now too. Mostly love letters, but they're much better than the monologues on depression I was halfassedly rehashing before.
