Yea this is pretty well known. You also do better with women if you stop flogging the dolphin for a while because you just have that desperation and killer instinct.

From what I've read, the young guys who have this problem require about six months of no porn or fapping to get back to normal. These are kids who have been watching porn and fapping since probably 10-12 years old, and to the hardest stuff. They are completely unable to stimulate themselves using their imagination. Knowing how the brain works, it makes sense... they were essentially fapping as a drug, getting high, and forming lots of neural pathways that become harder to stimulate. End result is that there is a constant search for harder, more outrageous porn, which in turn makes the problem worse.

Sounds basically like a drug addiction to me. I am curious if this has been studied medically yet.

Dude I've never heard of anyone like that. A week of nofap and every guy is pitching a tent whenever they see a 6.

It hasn't really been looked into, so you could be right. But there are literally thousands of people saying they have such problems, and there are support groups popping up all over the internet.

I look at porn all the time, and I don't have any problems... of course I'm not jerking everyday, three times a day, like these people are.
