Porn and masturbation binges are likely way more unhealthy than most doctors say

    I used to binge up to 5-7 times a day on a regular basis. I got fever from that. It is really hard to find info on that but it makes sense because all the good nutrients that come from your life and are supposed to create another life, is being drained over and over again. I actually feel health-drained just from masturbating once and even from condom sex. But the exchange of juices in real sex supplies the nutrients you need back to you. So I conclude real sex is healthy and masturbating is unhealthy. I do think if someone has more control over masturbating it’s not that unhealthy as in my case though.

  2. Can you elaborate on what "health-drained" means? Are you fatigued or is there more to it?

    Hi Kopykat, I would say a mixture of fatigue, I notice a swelling in my gums and mouth in general, I get a lot of pimples on my head that sometimes appear like boils, but overall, let’s say if a full fever or a full flu would be rated about 0 and a general well-being feeling at 10 I would feel like 6 to 9 when I masturbate once but about 2 to 4 when I binge.
     
  4. How old are you and how long has it been since you started using porn?

    I'm 39 and used porn since I'm 18
     
  6. Yeah, then you've been using just about as long as me. I know how you feel. Wish I could help you but I haven't even helped myself yet.

    Hi kopykat, I didn’t feel like I needed help except get off of porn completely. It’s the hinges that hurt my health
