    Fellow Brothers/Fapstronauts,

    I hope you all had a wonderful holiday with your families. I’m writing to you today about an experience and hoping for any info anyone might have.

    I’m 110+ days of normal mode (no using porn to masturbate and orgasm). I have been having sex with my SO and it’s definitely more intimate and great, even though I don’t last very long.

    My question is this, after sex I crave pleasure more. Shortly after a recently having sex, I wanted a HJ. After releasing to HJ from SO I immediately felt anxious, got a headache, and felt the brain tingles again.

    In short:
    Sex feel ok
    Hj and feel anxious

    Does anyone have experience with this?
     
  2. This is Freud on neurasthenia/anxiety:

    "Later, Freud formulated that in cases of coitus interruptus as well as in cases of masturbation, there was "an insufficient libidinal discharge" that had a poisoning effect on the organism, in other words, neurasthenia was the result of (auto‑)intoxication.[7] Eventually he separated it from anxiety neurosis, though he believed that a combination of the two conditions existed in many cases.[6]"

    Same applies to handjobs. If you've ever heard about a doctor called Lawrence Wilson, he distinguishes masturbation (and therefore handjobs) from something called 'down sex', which according to him is only possible between two humans of opposite sexes. These negative emotions after orgasm from masturbation and handjobs ar said to have something to do with low energetic frequencies and chakra's spinning backwards.

    I have post acute withdrawal syndrome due to overmasturbation and porn addiction in my teens and told my therapist about it today. To my amazement she told me that porn and masturbation is absolutely fine and that Freud is old-fashioned. She added that dopamine spikes can only be caused by mania, then went on to write me an additional prescription for Effexor. Apparently only actual substances matter in the medical world and ejaculating to porn 365 times a year is absolutely fine.

    The proof is in the pudding. All of my symptoms started two weeks into nofap and I've been suffering for years. My vote goes to Freud.

    That’s pretty deep bken and I’m not quite sure I follow. Are you saying this anxiety is normal given the balancing of dopamine during nofap?

    Or that nofap is the source of anxiety and therefore shouldn’t be practiced given what your therapist said?
     
  4. What I think is that masturbation turns your own energy inwards, leading to exhaustion, neurasthenia (nerves), and anxiety which can be very severe especially in withdrawal. People have energies you can't see. It is said by Eastern philosophy that you lose more energy because of solo sex (masturbation) since you don't have anyone to exchange energies with, which you do during normal intercourse, thus causing anxiety.
