Of course.
I personally wish you’d read something else

Welcome.

How are you reading the Bible? What books have you read? Which are next?

Thoughts on Kierkegaard?

As posted, we don't use fleshpilled images.

You should follow his example

just lay off the degenerate stuff and people will have more respect for you and you'll have more respect for yourself.

Well, since you see replies itt being desperately focused on your pic related, your intelligence level must be suitable

The Bible was a waste of my time and reading a guy who was wrong about everything isn’t a good use of my time. Grow up.

Weird how you still cling to materialism.

Maybe it's the environment . Try Rilke as well. Maybe get some better company, spend less time on this site.

You're on the Chans yourself right now

I am Christian so ive been reading the Bible extensively.
So far I enjoyed "diapsalmata" since it's just really clever short paragraphs of things he has noticed. Not a fan kf the next chapter so far named, " the immediate erotic stages". Because it's about how he'd classify certain classic novels. I enjoyed his love of Mozart though because it reminded me of my friends

Other than chans I'm not into worldly garbage.

I would have told you but you called me a fat guy with a beard so...ask Yea Forums

>why yes, I hang out in /lgbt/
I haven’t been recently. lesgen is terrible so I never stay. No, I’m not the ladyboy you’re looking for

>Stupid ol Dante
I get it, Dante couldn't do much about gay folks when placing them .
Such were the conventions of his time, he couldn't make an ecception about his inspirations and the great thinkers he respected either because they were born and died before Christ's birth.
The Church was very strict about it, take it as it is.

I now realize you might have a problem with the institution of the Church.
That doesn't mean you have to read the Bible or any other book through their lens.

I see why you might prefer Lewis as well now.

you're my favourite tripfriend

You haven’t been because you’re obviously not lesbian. :3

At least not for me

>not lesbian
No she’s a lesbian-

Okay fine

Do lesbians ever want a straight forward, deep dicking..... like on some kind of primordial/sub-conscious level?

Also, i love the pics of women you post. I think we have the same "taste".

Oh fuck off. See

Get laid

As you can tell, Yea Forums has been going down the drain fairly consistently. I'm not that cerebral, but even I can tell that over the 4+ years that I've been lurking/posting the board is getting worse. The last three or so weeks have been especially bad, for whatever reason.

Have you been following the ecclesiastical year for your Biblical readings? I still have not gotten around to reading the whole work. I only read it in bursts here and there. Finished the Gospel of Matthew from beginning to end for the first time last week.

I'm certainly no expert on K. I've read 'Diary of a Seducer' years ago, but apart from the context of Either/Or. Otherwise, I finished 'Fear and Trembling' last year, which was an absolute pleasure.

Thanks, user.

I regret the nice things I said in a metathread about you a few weeks back. As far as my very casual lurking goes, you seem to be a completely another user than the one I observed several months ago.

(Also, I only /litfit/. I don't go to /pol/)

>materialism
>reality
boomers are a scum that need to be purged

She’s like 35

Stop it. Stop everything that causes you to do it. If you're still in college it isn't too late. Cultivate good behaviors and eliminate triggers. It will be difficult at first but you can do this.

that's why I said boomer
also "she" is over 40

>same person who thinks she is a tranny thinks she is actually over 40

Just stop :3

Stop watching porn. Stop masturbating. When that part of your brain lights up, don't feed it, try to redirect your thoughts, take a cold shower whatever. And use all the time and energy formerly spent masturbating on other pursuits or you'll go crazy

To add to this guy's post, read older literature on it and try not to be so skeptical. Might be crude but it's very inspirational. The book "Science Discovers the Physiological Value of Continence" really helped my efforts here. I suggest getting a physical copy of it. Read the morning after a relapse.

Here is some of it:

>An opinion has gained ground in modern times, not only among the general public, but also among physicians, that the belief in the physiological value of continence belongs to the dark ages of religious superstitions and scientific ignorance, and is incompatible with physiological knowledge. Certain pseudosexologists, have exploited this idea to their commercial advantage and have created in the public mind a phobia in regards to continence, which is regarded as a cause of nervous and mental diseases and a positive health danger. On the basis of this belief, physicians and psychoanalysts have looked on continence for the cause of the nervous ailments of youth and have advised young men to visit prostitutes and risk venereal infection as a lesser evil than the assumed hazards of abstinence.
[...]
>A careful reading should, however, convince any open-minded reader that the above view is false, and that continence per se can never do harm, but is always beneficial; and that when trouble occurs in an individual not practicing normal sex relations, the fault is not continence but some vicarious means of sex expression, excessive nocturnal emissions, etc. In view of the richness of the semen in lecithin, cholesterol, phosphorus and other constituents of nervous and brain tissue it is clear that it is incontinence, or loss of these valuable nerve- nourishing substances which, by promoting undernutrition, is responsible for disturbed functioning of the nervous system and brain, and never true continence, contrary to the unscientific views of the psychoanalysts.
[...]
>We have seen that the internal secretions of the sex glands stand at the basis of the individual's physical and mental vitality and that sex hormones are present in the external as well as in the internal secretions of the gonads. Many of the effects attributed to such hormones, as we have seen, are due to the physiological effect of resorbed semen. Conservation of semen means conservation of sex hormones and increased vigor, while loss of semen means loss of hormones and diminished vitality; also chronic deficiency of such hormones leads to the symptoms of senility, which Voronoff and Steinach strove to overcome by increasing the amount of sex hormones in the blood.

Good luck to the original guy. This is real demon to beat and requires effort but it's worth it. It feels so free when you're not a slave to it any more.

I can't attest to the science of the quotes, but I can say that since becoming (mostly) continent I've felt more focused, energetic. Better reaction time + performance (tennis) more confident, less neurotic

>The last three or so weeks have been especially bad, for whatever reason.
Yea Forums spillover from Game of Thrones fallout is my theory.

I don't attest to the science in it either. I think they were right in laying the cause but the proposed mechanisms for the hypotheses are crude. However, reading it can reinforce the resolve and touch on something you know is true. Also, one can rest assured that great physicians of the past also postulated sexual behavior, especially excesses, can precipitate adverse effects.
For me, celibacy is better than any drug and is comparable to a low dose stimulant.

Godspeed brother

:3 care to extrapolate?

These are all good posts, but its definitely the starts. As will all things related to self-improvement, when you need to make the change, it's probably already to late. Survive these finals, and then start a major turn around.

As 'silly' as it is, start with the self-help brand of Stoicism and Peterson-shilling. Read some Stoicism, try to practice some of those exercises. Clean your room. Make your bed every morning. Cut out as much refined sugar from your diet as possible. Increase the amount of water you drink. Go for good walks.

At the end of the day, it's all about those little changes. The more you make those changes, the easier it'll become.

Also, some studies show that even doing jumping jacks or other cardio exercises right before an exam can help improve scores.

Disregard these behaviorists. You need to emerge into the light of conscious self directed action, not force yourself into "good habits". That's not sustainable (also it's degrading)

Im in the reply chain,
I don't disagree with you, this is more or less what i meant when i said use the sexual energy productively or you'll go crazy. And I was not able to cease compulsive masturbation until I participated in conscious self directed action.
But there's different parts of you and the part that gets hooked on porn and masturbation is compulsive and habitual.

based cumbrain poster

I just turned 18 and recently joined this board. Do I still have time to fix this? Masturbated to gradually weirder shit for the most part of my 12-17 years, and while I do feel different and have urges to go and masturbate again almost every day, I don't know if there is still time to "unfuck" my brain that has been hardwired with porn, but I still want to make a change as I believe I have potential. If you can help me, please respond, I'm quite frustrated with this and would appreciate some help

Meditation is what did it for me. Once I became conscious of myself it became easy to control my desires. For me it is as simple as recognizing when the urge comes and willing it away.

I see, I will proceed to do the same, then. Great to know that there actually is a way out and that I may not have fried my brain with dopamine. Thank you.

Seems like a great way, too, actually.
I was considering meditation for a while, but never did it, but I'll change that soon and try it out. Thank you too.

Your first step is to realize that you are likely permanently damaged - that way it will not demoralize you when you have periodic realizations of this fact. That having been said, the damage that has been done is likely manageable with some work. Boredom will drive relapse. Improved diet and fitness is not a meme - these will yield results. Do things you hate to have to do. This will improve your skill set, save you money, and drive your psyche to stop dreading adversity; instead sometimes even enjoying it. Stand fast, little brother.

I also believe in meditation, but I engage in active meditation - whereas over 90% of the meditation recced on this board is sedate. Brian Enos does a very good job of describing this in Practical Shooting: Beyond Fundamentals. Though the text is centered around firearms competition, the methods apply to any activity with appropriate modification. Marc MacYoung did a good writeup on some similar aspects in one of his later books. I would have to dig through them to remember which one. His short story is that you need to drive amygdala responses to physical problems - bypassing the cerebellum. This will drive faster solutions and exercise the brain differently than you likely normally do.

why are you like this?

Not her, but in America we eat shitty food and poison our water. Brain damage is inevitable.

Don’t insult others by calling them brain damaged.

Besides, that’s their tactic: to assert that anyone with faith in God is brain damaged. Don’t use atheist’s tactics.

Read her posts. I am not being ironic. I also believe it to be related to not just the cultural conditions in this country, but also the physical conditions. Regardless, very rarely do I refer to anyone as I do to her. I only say it if I mean it.

Recently got a gym membership and focused quite hard on it, and yes, I have seen results and it has really changed my life. Thing is, I also used my time in the gym poorly, sometimes, as I just "mired" women and eventually I was overcome with the urge. Bad managing of priorities on my part. Only mentioning this in case some other user reads this and realizes that he's making the same mistake I made. Don't really know if I am actually permanently damaged, tho as I don't know if there is a way to know if the "you fucked up" meter has exploded. Thank you for the kind wishes, brother.

That is really interesting, I'll give it a try with these reccs and actively observate to know if I make progress. Thank you.

Yes. Yes you do. It's the people who reach the mid-20s I worry about. There was a time then whence I fell back into the habit and that time, was more difficult than even the hormone filled teenage years to battle this (which I successfully conquered for many month long periods between those years). At 18 the brain is incredibly neuroplastic, and is the best time, even if you grew up on it to quit. A change of environment can help immensely, though not everyone is fortunate enough to do such. If you are going to university, assuming you are in the US, I'd advise attempting to procure private student loans in addition to public ones when you go to college to afford your own place. The solitude and change of enviroment should help. I could never qualify but as of a few years ago, many lenders offer loans at higher interest to solo applicants without a credit history. At the end of the day, fixing your brain is more important than any debt you man accrue. Or if you don't want to go to university (I don't blame you~~undergraduate education itself provides limited opportunities almost necessitating postgraduate education), go into trucking, something I considered in those in between years prior to my study of medicine. Traveling the road and taking in the American landscape, listening to music, audiobooks, language programs would be most theraputic. Or if you're fortunate enough to find some well paying job, take that instead. The worst thing you can do is remain at home as a NEET.

I agree strongly with you. I'm actually a Brazilian monkey, but I plan to enter a student exchange program that may lead me to New Zealand, America or Canada (I am still doing my research before I actually choose one of those). Even though the mental health improvement it may provide would really benefit me, I am still a little worried about loans, as when I was a child my family got in a pretty rough financial spot because of one (though I admit they are not that good with their money). And I also agree with your stance on being a NEET, as to me this isn't even up for consideration. Hope I haven't made many typos or failed to put some sense into my words, as it is 2 AM here and I'm sleepy. Thank you, user.

>I don't know if there is a way to know if the "you fucked up" meter has exploded
Deviant sexual urges are very difficult to remove but they can be managed. Eventually, you need a broad that can deal with you as you are.
>just "mired" women
Get some cast iron plates and work on your own.Do not listen to broads that criticize you for getting fit. Absolutely ignore them. If they insist on injecting then:
>I am doing this for me - not for you
I had to do this once.

Good to know that it can be managed. This shit is great at the moment but I am disgusted by it when looking back.
>I am doing this for me - not for you
Makes sense, guess I just have to wake up and stop caring about what they think of me. Makes even more sense when, looking back, it feels like this is only setting me back. Thank you.

Loans really don't exist. We used to be cavemen. Never forget that.

Won't forget that even if I wanted, there are people that act like it for most of the time.

I'll get some sleep now. Thank you to all of you that replied and helped me, it really means a lot to me.
