Are you in a world of shit? Are you running out of money? Do you need to find a job soon? Are you hopelessly depressed and suffering from social anxiety?

A medical study has shown that abstaining from masturbating for as little as a week will raise the testosterone levels in men by as much as 46%. There's nothing wrong with the occasional fap session, but if you're a daily fapper, this might be contributing to your problems.

If you need to man the fuck up fast or face dire consequences, abstaining from fapping for a time might be the key to saving your ass.

A week is impossible for me.

Attention everyone: don't do this. I tried it, and the stress accumulated from abstinence almost made me go insane. If you're used to fapping several times a day, suddenly stopping completely will have severely negative effects on your health.

You've been fapping for so long that your body no longer knew how to handle the power of testosterone. Perhaps tappering off slowly over the course of a month might be easier to handle.

You have to expect a withdrawal, man.

It's way too hard if you're lurking about image boards though, eventually you're going to come into contact with something that you just can't help but fap to.

Whenever I stop doing it, I start getting these random boners several times a day, usually starting on the 3-4 day after the last session. Really uncomfortable, especially when it happens during class. I doubt that randomly popping up erections will help the average /jp/ be more successful in everyday life.

It's a big misconception, there wont be a noticeable difference. But it can work well as a placebo.

>> No.8020616

I can say for sure that before I started fapping at least once a day, my sessions were a lot better. Now it often feels like I'm just fapping whenever I can/happen to get an erection, as opposed to when I'm actually turned on.

If nothing else I think doing it once every 2-4 days makes for the best sessions. At least for me, although it makes intuitive sense that fap sessions would be better if you save your energywhatever other expendables are involved in the process for when you are actually aroused(I think most would agree that simply having an erection is not the same as arousal).

However, obviously others have different rates of arousal and/or recuperative ability/staying power, much to my chagrin.

try reading the abstract.
It says that abstaining for *exactly* a week will raise your testosterone a bunch on about the 7th day. It suggests that your testosterone returns to normal if you continue abstaining for longer than that.

studies also show that fapping everyday can extend your life to an average of 8 years....but who would want that

I abstained from fapping for two and a half months.
Then I came just by barely touching myself after the inevitable lewd images popping up in my mind.
It felt good but sometimes it almost drove me crazy.

Sounds sort of interesting and incredibly boring at the same time.

Definitely doesn't sound worth turning 2+ months' worth of fap sessions into one. That's 2+ months' worth of pleasure you'll never get back. As suggested earlier in this thread, I imagine there is probably a sweet spot after a certain period of time for most men which would maximize pleasure/arousal with frequency.

I find when I abstain from fapping for more than a week or two it usually ends up as a wet dream that I don't remember... Unpleasant.

Well, yeah, I'm just gauging it as an experience considering you went and did it and all(supposedly) regardless of your reasons. It's a pretty big urban myth(?) that saving up for very long periods of time makes it much better.

I've never gone that long and I don't think I even could.

>> No.8024721

>>8024671
Yeah, that's definitely a misconception (at least in my experience), after a while it just makes you cum a lot faster. A couple days are good for raising the enjoyment level but anything over that seems just like a waste of good fapping time.
