Hello, world!

Hi, everyone!

For years I have struggled with heavy procrastination, feelings of inferiority, insecurity, extreme anxiety and lack of motivation. During more demanding periods at uni, I quickly get really stressed out which leads to profound feelings of depression, social withdrawal (and social awkwardness) and inability to focus on basically any task imaginable. I feel like together with the low levels of energy, joy and happiness, I have become emotionally distant from everyone.

I have tried to work on my procrastination, which I originally believed was the main source of my poor life quality but it didn't seem to be the answer. I have tried antidepressants, which have alleviated some symptoms but I'm sure that medication can't solve the underlying problem. But what IS the problem?

I have noticed that I am addicted to fapping. Every night, when going to bed, I fap to fall asleep. Every morning, before getting out of bed, I pick up my phone and automatically navigate to the magical land

I have noticed that when I abstain from PMO for a couple of days, I feel more energized, I have more thoughts in my head, I actually want to get shit done and feel more motivated to do literally anything. So begins my journey of finding out whether fapping is the main contributor to my misery.

My hypothesis is that we're not supposed to function normally if we constantly make love to our own hand. And if we stop from doing so, nature will take care of things by keeping brain chemicals and hormonal levels balanced.

After all, it's all biological - right?
I'm here to find out.
