>get off on Saturday morning >finally vidya time >get home, end up browsing Zig Forums, watching stupid shit on netflix or youtube >think about playing vidya >"i'm too tired maybe later" >"i'm not in the mood" >"i don't have the time for starting a new game" >maybe play a few hours of some timewaster like destiny or apex >it's 9PM on a Sunday
I somehow end up procrastinating my fucking free time away. I procrastinated fucking having fun. What the fuck is wrong with me?
>I'm too tired >I'm not in the mood There's your answer.
Daniel Perez
Stop procrastinating and go finish something, force yourself to play it and you'll do the rest on your own
Zachary Miller
i have no discipline i cant force myself to do anything
Noah Morris
Then either work towards changing that mentality, or learn to cope with the fact that things will never change.
Aaron Martinez
Procrastinating often comes from a lack of self-awareness. Relax and let peace come back to you, whether you work on Mondays or not. There's nothing you are *supposed* to be doing on weekends. Examine what you consider fun and be honest to yourself.
A weekend off vidya is hardly a bad thing. Don't feel bad for using your time like you did, but rather investigate why you act the way you act.
Liam Carter
After getting my ass annihilated by cancer last year i got something in my neck now [as it was when it started] and im gonna find out if its back within 3 days. if it is, im gonna have to do a bone marrow transplant and sit in a hospital for a month with the risk of getting covid on top of that
think about it and see if you should be anxious because you didnt play a video game
Joseph Hernandez
As tough as your situation is, it is never fair to do what you just did. You can't compare yourself to another person, ever. You probably suffered more than me or other people, but you can't use that to invalidate another person's struggle. Maybe the guy doesn't play vidya because he's been feeling worse and worse, as a man, as a peson. Offer the wisdom your struggle gave you to help a brother out. Don't tear them down
Adam Barnes
Unironically, stop masturbating so much. Im not even a nofap faggot but they are 100% right about one thing, if you retain that semen, you will have waaay more energy and much more of a drive to do things. It has worked for me and it has worked for many others user.
Chase Thomas
this is partially true. not fapping boosts me to near-normalfag status, it's fucking stupid. Sadly, I have a habit now and it's hard to shake
Ian Price
I'm never in the mood and I'm always too tired. To do anything. urf
When I end up doing this with vidya anyway, I feel bored within minutes. I don't even know what else to force myself to do.
>what I consider fun
Fuck, if I knew that, I doubt I'd be sitting here. I'd be doing it. I just don't KNOW what I find fun anymore. Vidya is like a stopgap, I guess. Sometimes I like it, but most of the time, I just don't have the energy for it or... I have this horrible mental block for some reason.
Trust me, I wish I knew why I act the way I act.
Jace Walker
I did not mean to belittle his struggle just to offer some perspective. Im aware someone out there has it far worse than me and could tell me to sit down and shut up and I would.
Dont take it as invalidation, take it as perspective. Im a 26 y/o man who was never loved by the opposite sex, had an abusive stepfather and am now sitting here to find out if cancer came for round 2. All I'm thinking here is how sad and pathetic would it be to die before having someone by my side or building anything significant for society.
I have many worries but not playing games for a day isnt one of them, and I want OP to see hes worried about bs
Nathaniel Flores
Man, just stop looking at porn. It's really not that hard, once you get in the grove you just preoccupy yourself with other things whenever you wanna fap
Adrian Lopez
Well then, start searching. It's not gonna be easy. But my man, anything beats sitting at home feeling blocked mentally. Start writing your feelings down. How do you feel about your free time? What's one thing you'd want to do right now (gut answer only)? Not what you're *supposed* to do. Do you honestly want to just lay the fuck down on the couch? There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Reclaim power through self-awareness
Jaxson Stewart
is it really that bad if you just go for it once a day? i need to get off somehow
Matthew Price
I understand, but you're still playing the game though. His struggle is not bullshit to him. Can you see how you're still saying he's worried about bs? Your additional perspective you gave him would do next to nothing for me. If anything, it would make me feel worse because I know people are battling illness and I'm here feeling too depressed and useless to even enjoy myself. OP is not worried about bs, brother. Also, I'm sorry to hear about your current situation but we humans can be tough motherfuckers so hold on through the lonely days without a gf.
Daniel Baker
start lifting
Landon Lee
only meant to help, though what you said is true. and thanks for the kind words
Lincoln Hall
Another half hour, another burnt out vedditor, love seeing these threads
Eli Cox
Thanks for the words of encouragement, user. Genuinely one of the nicest comments I've ever seen on Zig Forums.
I'm sorry I came off so defensive about it. Sometimes I get carried away because I think I'm right about something Thank you for the smiles brother. It's a nice change of pace from regular Zig Forums, don't you think? I hope you get back your power and peace of mind
Nicholas Gomez
literally just stop looking at porn. do it while looking at nothing and youll start to get bored and disgusted
Nicholas Johnson
>if you retain that semen
I can't tell if you're meming or you're literally a retarded faggot that isn't aware of the fact that semen is being continuously produced and you never "retain" semen, your body just makes new semen and gets rid of whatever's left through waste.
Dopamine though can be retained and when you masturbate your dopamine levels drop. Masturbation also releases endorphins, which are pain relievers, oxytocin lowers your cortisol (stress) levels, and it flushes out the carcinogens in your prostate, lowering your risk of cancer.
Andrew Jones
play games that are fun and you dont feel left out/behind when you take a break. fuck mmos, fuck online, fuck competitive. its only worth doing if youre getting paid and enjoy the exposure
relax, go slow, go when you want. be free and be happy user
Semen retention is just a phrase coined by the internet. It is not meant to be scientifically accurate, but more a word of intent. That other user is most definitely aware semen doesn't just sit there. Though I am not against masturbation, I am against porn, and the utilization of masturbation as a coping mechanism. That's a similar sentiment to that of the people you call retarded faggots, so I felt like I needed to call you out
Easton Nelson
COVID isn’t real so you have nothing to worry about
Lincoln Jackson
whats the replacement for porn? girls that ignore me? masturbate looking at my dog?
Hunter Jenkins
close your eyes and use your mind nigga. its not that hard
Samuel Lopez
It's a gradual process. I believe masturbating to one's own thoughts and fantasies is healthier than consuming endless porn media. Remember what it felt like to get turned on by mere text? Or a mere sensation or memory?
Michael Harris
Well man, you could always try self improvement. I used to be a really asbergery, skinny autistic fuck that everyone including myself hated. The best thing I ever did was start weight lifting. Weight lifting is a skill, and its great at teaching you to learn other skills. From that initial skill of weight lifting I gradually picked up better social skills, hygiene skills and overall did much better down the line. Learn some kind of skill and go from their user.
Christian Wood
thanks jackoff sensei i'll keep that in mind
not half as good as watching ryan madison tear a chick in half
i've been lifting since i was 18 and im 26. tip: lifting doesnt cure mysogyny and hatred for modern society, it augments it
Cooper Perry
>Remember what it felt like to get turned on by mere text? Or a mere sensation or memory?
I can slam my meat for an hour without getting near completion, but if a girl starts flirting with me or showing any attention I'm turned on.
If they actually express interest in me, as a person, complimenting me and saying things they like about me, I instantly get diamonds.
I think I need to examine why other's opinions matter so much to me.
I should probably do this too, ever since I started work from home I fap right before lunch and before my shift ends. I've been way more tired recently and I'm lucky if I even get a dribble, which sucks because it's fucking up my gains in MMO's and VR
Carter Jenkins
adderal can help that.
Ryder Morris
>wage slave does not enjoy his slavery You're not supposed to.
Ryder Hill
Power through self-awareness is a man's best resource. Define good. Is porn good because it feels good for 10 minutes? And then what?
Grayson Hall
>That's a similar sentiment to that of the people you call retarded faggots
Using any kind of vice as a coping mechanism for much larger problems is always bad. Alcohol, self-harm, violence against others, drugs.
Jackson Anderson
>not half as good as watching ryan madison tear a chick in half literally cucking yourself by watching this shit. please stop
Dylan Rodriguez
Typefucking on ERP websites, it will help improve your grammar, enhance creative writing skills, and also give you more ambitious ideas for those times you actually get in bed with someone. I need to get off F-list, it's turning into shit.
Jose Carter
Agreed. Porn and masturbation to me is exactly the same as coping with substance or a thrill of violence
Ian Edwards
hard to get out of eternal hell when you literally can't go outside of a pandemic, house arrest feelsbadman
Joshua Fisher
then i feel calm, satisfied and can focus on other things jackoff sensei i dont get your point
every girl is getting plowed like that by someone regardless of whom theyre dating. i just pretend im him when i watch it
dude when i want to jackoff i want to jackoff not type
Julian Garcia
The porn habit carries additional effects for some people, more than feeling satisfied and relaxed. Maybe you're not in that group.
Luis Rogers
for real after i masturbate i feel really good and relaxed then i can listen to music, have some water and sleeping. would i prefer to fuck a chick? yes. do i have that option? no
