    I've been trying to do nofap for five years and have failed every time ever since I've staretd it.

    So, ever since I started fapping, I began to get a bunch of mental issues that affected be very heavily.

    They were the following:
    1. Very bad brain fog
    2. Poor vision
    3. Inability to Focus
    4. Very bad social anxiety

    I've also noticed that it fucks up one side of my face and makes it look very bad.

    I've got many more to name, however, I was wondering if Anyone else in this forum had this same problem? I've been told by a doctor that it's likely a deficiency of fat or other vitamins/minerals due to ejaculating too much. Also, I only fapped once or twice per week, so I wasn't necessarily over-doing it.

    After talking to many people, some of whom are friends who fap often, who say that they don't have any of these issues that I do from fapping and its likely due to genetics. It's actually so terrible that I basically failed highschool and spent the entire four years super depressed an unable to hang out or do anything for that regard so I missed out completely on life.

    Now, to end it off, I'm also indian so maybe my indian genetics could play a role in it just being me and nobody else. I've also however found a few people on this forum and even on the r/nofap reddit who have this exact same issue with the same mental problems above that I defined.


    If anyone else has this issue, I'd be curious to hear your story and how you feel, and I'm also curious to see what race you are if so, as I feel that race and genetics can play a huge role in it. This has effected me and a lot of people pretty miserably so it would be a thing to meet someone whose also felt like me.

    Also, to end, even if you don't have these mental issues and symptoms from ejaculating/fapping often, then feel free to reply too, as I'm curious to see who also doesn't feel this way.

    Scientifically, it does make sense as your body is pouring nutrients and minerals to make the healthiest and most powerful sperm cells, so its probable that ejaculating that out instead of it being recycled back into the body from not being used could be a possible result.

    I've never heard of any of these happening as a result from NOT fapping, just actually doing it gave me brainfog like crazy!!!

  3. All are results from fapping. Go on nofap for at least a month and see for yourself.

    I never said that it was a result from NOT fapping, infact these are the results I get if I fap too much. How does this play out for you?

    Ah, okay. I must have misread it then. Sorry about that. Also, I meant brainFOG, but I missed the autocorrect. I edited it just now.

    Yeah, I got brainfog REALLY bad. Performance issues, anxiety in knowing I would have performance issues, and just plain not caring about much of anything life in general other than getting back to my drug of choice, porn or p-sub.

    yeah i had that issue for years bro. It set me back so far. Whats crazy is that i joined nofap when i was 14, tried relentlessly to quit since then, but to no avail until I found a video where a male porn star talked about how most guys wont feel anything during sex, the first time they have it, bcs they are used to the motion and feeling of their hand. Then I realized why I was so addicted to fapping, it was because hand's grip caused me to have more of an orgasm which made me way more addicted. So I loosened my grip in order to quit and re-sensitized myself, and it caused me to have the worst withdrawals. I kept going through that phase, as I would get close to quitting and then relapse as I would wake up in the middle of my sleep super horny, due to the addiction.
