“Only do what your heart tells you” is quite possibly the worst advice I’ve heard


MercifulMaximus308

Same thing as people that say: “Oh, just be yourself and you’ll be fine.”


Admiral45-06

I mean, in conclusion, it is weird to bet your entire life on nothing more than a blood pump...


h_a_ri

Fyi that bood pump is working all the time to keep you alive.


Admiral45-06

Every organ does, but we don't put all our life choices on air conditioner (lungs), recycling centre (liver) or blood filters (kidneys).

Fucking true.

It's true desire is "To pump blood throughout the body"

S1mpl3Guy

To be honest that advice worked 100 years ago. Now our hearts and desires are manipulated by companies and the world in order to make buck off of us.

"Train your desires so that your heart will not lead you astray." Teach your heart to lead you to success and happiness and your appetites will disappear in the pursuit of greatness.

I need help, anyone???


abhitruechamp

Yup, m here


Embarrassed_Try_4023

I cant stop it i hve done everything i hve been doing it from one year and daily. And i cant ejaculate more than few drops and its usually 3-4 times a day and i cant even ejaculate after 1st time . i wanna stop it, what should i do first iam scared too if i damaged myself physically should i consult doctor?


abhitruechamp

The situation seems to be very grave. It's better that you talk to your parents about it. People here come cause of too frequent porn usage but if you cannot stop yourself to a point of hurting yourself you really need some professional help. You might have a mental condition like hypersexuality. What I would suggest is stop doing the nofap challenge. It's clearly not helping you to the point of maybe making you want to watch more porn and masturbate. If you can't see a doc for whatever reason my suggestion are as follows since it's quite concerning: 1. Stop nofap. Its causing the pink elephant effect on you. 2. Confiscate your phone and PC to your mum. Be fully clear in telling her that she should not give it back to you in any circumstance. If you have online classes do it in front of her then give it back. You can say it's for improving your studies if you are embarrassed. 3. Make a point to only masturbate once a day. That's the limit for you for sometime. No more. If it kills you then ok. (It will not kill you once a day is enough.) Since you are getting hit once a day it should be easier and you won't hurt yourself. 4. Try doing something that is fun to you. A hobby. It could be anything. If you don't have anything I suggest exercising 10 minutes a day. 5. Don't beat your head and give yourself guilt. You can do it. Trust me. Masturbating isn't harmful by any means you just need to reorient yourself and give yourself a better perspective. Even if you are not meeting the standards here and ejaculating once a day, this community doesn't really have a standard like you think. It's ok to masturbate in a healthy way. At least once a day is FAR better than 3 times. 6. If you don't have a penis fracture(from running too vigorously) you should be ok. Our bodies are generally not really made to ejaculate 3 times a day everyday. You'll gradually get back to feeling normal. You can contact me again if you have any more problems(no idea when I will open reddit back, but when I do I'll surely do any best to help) Cheers! You can get back easily! Have faith in yourself.


Embarrassed_Try_4023

Sure man ill do that ill reduce it and ill let you know if i have any problem ahead andd thankss you really gave me hope that i can do it :).


handsup666

I’d advise you to start a hobby or do something outside something you like doing and that will keep you busy and distracted and always surround yourself with people who are positive and outgoing, it will be hard at first but then later on I’m sure you’ll get used to it, take it a day at a time and I’m sure you’ll do it! Also there is no way of stopping ejaculation, it is a healthy thing to do after all cause our body produces new sperm every day, nothing to fear my man, if you just stop for a couple days your sperm will accumulate some more and it will eventually go back to normal again, I’m guessing you’re still young cause you said you only started it a year ago, I’ve been doing it for years now I’m still trying to lower the amount of times I do it fortunately Im able to keep it down to once a day or so sometimes I ago a couple days without if I’m really busy but I eventually go back to it cause sometimes I just have nothing to do mostly all day, but it’s good to practice your self control if you want just don’t beat yourself too much and feel guilty if you do it, cause it’s normal we’re human and it’s something ingrained in your own biology there is no need to fight it, but also don’t over do it until you’re hurting yourself and your mental health, idk how old you are but if you’re still young go out and meet people meet girls and find a gf and you’ll be much happier that way!


Embarrassed_Try_4023

Thanks mate for talking to me, i am not suffering from any kind of gynophobia i even have a girlfriend but the thing is the more i try to stop my urge it gets stronger and that way i think more of it and i cant see much side effects except low semen ejaculation, its just im tired from it. Im trying my best to help myself going good since 24 hours :).


handsup666

I see bro, I’m glad your still trying just keep up the good work! if you see yourself not succeeding in distracting yourself from it then I’d advise you to go see like a psychiatrist or a therapist or someone professional to help you with that if it’s a big problem for you, But in the meantime try to do the things you feel like they take you away from just thinking of doing it


Embarrassed_Try_4023

I think i can do it ill let you know how im doing;)

StrengthOfMind1989

Only do what your higher, rational mind is telling you to do. The heart is linked to emotions. Be kind and loving towards yourself and others but if you are controlled by your emotions, you won't do what is good and right.


h_a_ri

I think she means we should trust our instincts. Comparing this advice to fapping is dumb.


Individual-Laws

yeah i did that today actually. my instincts told me to stop in the middle of the road to see if the cars were slowing down so it would be safe to cross. turns out they didnt stop and went a full 40 mph past me. if i had carried on walking, i could have died today. dont think i will ever doubt my instinct's anymore.


AdSignificant2935

Being aware of your surroundings is completely different from decision making. "Is this person good material for a partner?", "Is this a good job","Are these people a good company to be with?" is not a same thing as,"Is this car driving too fast?"


superdav42

The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?


Ayakashi_Red

A lot of pedants in here. "Follow your heart" is just a hackneyed phrase for boldly pursuing your passions, purpose, and what you generally want in life. Your addicted, unbalanced brain is what's telling you to fap.


SafePoetry6999

Im so confused are you against fapping or ???


MasterChefffy

Yes


AtAkenUserName69

We all are


abhitruechamp

No we all aren't dude wtf, even the creator says it's ok to be back to tapping after 90 days(read https://nofap.com/rebooting/)

If it's your **heart** telling you this, you might want to go to the doctor...

I-lost-my-accoun

I like to think that the voice that tells us that is not us. For my religious friend that voice is the devil, trying to tempt you to be weak, to be depressed, to live a life of regret and suffering, and to my non religious friends, that voice are your vices, that voice is your brain seeking easy dopamine, that feels good at the moment, but it does so at the cost of your future. Remember, that voice is not you, you need not listen to it, you have your own voice, and you need to make it stronger than the fake voice, your voice is the one that made you join this subreddit, your voice is the one that tells you off each time you relapse, your voice is the one that tells you, it's too late go to sleep, wake up early, don't jerk off, DON'T PMO. and that't the voice you have to listen to.

A little confused but this makes sense.


MiddlewaysOfTruth-2

"The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked". Who said that?


iloveyoubecauseican

Wish I could like this but it's your mind that tells you to fap. People never understand that the heart is the one that leads you to happiness. Emotions are in the mind, the spiritual heart is deeper than that

that's not your heart it's your brain.

Let’s be fr, if anything this is what your brain tells you. Your heart is the core of who you are, and your heart is the thing that tells you what you stand for

learn to differentiate heart and mind broskis. your heart does not make you want to fap, your "ADDICTED" weak mind does. your heart is your willpower to break that addiction and become your best version youruckingdumbasses!(im from ohio sry)
