    We all know that fapping away and watching porn gives us that rush and relief. It strengthens our lazy, give me something for nothing side by training our brains to crave dopamine for little or no effort and leads to low moods and lack of motivation.

    I also notice other things, like junk food, vidoe games and cartoons have a similar effect, although not as strong.

    I'm interested to see what other activities people indulge in that have a similar effect. Please share your thoughts guys maybe we can help each other see things in our lives that we need to regulate or omit altogether

    Cacao. Really dark. Justify it as being a superfood. The nutrition factor is there however it is a quick fix due to the rush I get from eating hefty quantities.

    Music. Although I have cut way back.
