Don't listen to this loser, OP. Depression is a result of a lack of self discipline. Psychiatry will just try to dope you up until your body cannot naturally produce serotonin anymore, they don't give one shit about your well being.

Celibacy

Steppenwolf?

How does one ditch the pornographic menace?

>>15881878
Get off the computer and go outside, start living your life. Read "The Coiled Serpent" and "The Conquest of the Serpent" by van Vliet

>>15881878
In the short run, there are apps that you can self block porn sites with. Look into those. In the long run, you'll need to develop your skills of discipline (yes, discipline is a skill, and is not inherit, so don't expect it to be simple at first).

Watching porn and masturbation is literally a form of self harm. It fucks your brain chemistry.

>>15881699
I don't want advice. I want books.

>>15881992
Books in therapy then, anon. I did that, it works a bit depending on how organized you are capable of being and if you find a way of holding yourself accountable it can probably bear decent fruits. I recommend an intro book to psychology, followed by a book on CBT. Beck's "Cognitive Behavior Therapy: Basics and Beyond" is a good starter, and it didn't seemed that complicated to me.

Therapists can't prescribe medication

>>15882367
I have yet to meet a therapist who won't eventually recommend their client visit a psychiatrist and get on medication.

>>15882399
Just say you don't want to

>>15881696
Give me your personality type and i'll tell you

>>15882399
look at gestalt and, to a lesser extent, cognitive behavioural therapists.

>>15882417
Or better yet, don't waste your time and money on seeing a therapist.

Why does that pic hurt me so much? I'm a literal faggot and I still long for what that man has.

The Magus by John Fowles
A Sport and a Pastime by James Salter
Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse
First book most highly recommended

You've been demoralized to the point that you've convinced yourself you're homosexual as a coping mechanism. It's the same phenomena when low test beta men become transsexuals in an effort to "become" the woman they will never be able to achieve as a male. On some level you know this.

>>15881696

Would it be morally right for me to marry a woman and withhold my sexuality, just for the purpose of procreating? Because after covid I'm heading to church to find a wife.

>>15882619
If you are a homosexual then you should absolutely not be having children. There is a near 100% chance that you will molest them.

>>15882619
>Would it be morally right for me to marry a woman and withhold my sexuality
Yes. Be a good husband to your wife, and a competent father to your children.You'll forget all about the sexual degradation that has been drilled into your mind from pornography (or in many cases abuse).

>>15882399
>their client
you?

>>15882679
Yes, you are not a "patient" when you see a therapist, you are a "client". Therapist have no legal recognition as a medical professional. Therapy is a scam to separate you from your money by getting you to talk about your feelings for $90/hr, and psychiatry is a scam to pacify and dull the masses with drugs that alter your brain chemistry.

>>15882644
Okay, then. I will withhold my white genes.

>>15882714
you are missing my point

>>15882817
Then please, make your point.

>>15882714
Who hurt you

>>15882837
The system. Hurts you too, you just too dull or ignorant to feel it.

>>15882714
Therapy isn't a "scam" any more that prostitution is a scam. A therapist is a basically a listening hooker. They listen to you bitch about shit and then when you're done you cut a check and leave with no social consequences.

>>15882830
you meet x number of therapists who tell you to take medication and you claim all therapists do this for all clients. perhaps it is simpler than that.

>>15882871
I've never seen a therapist in my life. Perhaps your own personal projection is warping your perception of this conversation.

>>15882463
Thanks man

>>15882881
then your post should end with "I have yet to meet a therapist" here >>15882399

>>15882445
lmao why was I expecting it

>>15882919
I've known therapists, and I know people who go to therapists. I also know the statistical data on the percentage of people who move from therapy to psychiatry, and formed my opinion justly. An opinion can be formed on the practice of therapy without visiting a therapist.

Are you ready to admit you're trying to straw man my argument to justify your therapy sessions, anon?

>>15882850
Grow a pair

>>15883061
Got a pair. In fact, I got all the things a man needs in this world. A brain, a dick, and a heart. What you got, besides obedience? Huh?

>>15881696
Unironically Robert M. Sapolsky's Behave. At least check out the intro or his first set of lectures on youtube.

>>15883005
how many therapists have you known? and please, post your statistical data.

also, I've never seen a therapist in my life. Perhaps your own personal projection is warping your perception of this conversation.

>>15883141
>doesn't even have their own rebuttal, attempts to mirror what I said back to me
Yikes...

>>15882790
Don't listen to that shill, donate your semen to a semen bank, if your genes are viable they will accept it.

>>15882790
Homosexuality isn't even real dude. Realize that and live a fulfilling life as a father and husband.

>This whole thread
Literally /pol/-tier propaganda in disguise.

>>15883156
post your data

>>15883215
It's not something I keep on hand, and I have no incentive at all to dig it up again for the likes of you. Either take my statements at face value, or do yourself a favor and muster enough inquisitiveness to do some independent research for once in your life.

>>15883209
Is it still propaganda if it's true?

>>15881696

>>15883280
