Do you guys think it’s okay to beat the chicken without watching anything or thinking? It’s not an everyday occurrence but it is a natural thing yk.

My goal is to rewire my brain and stop feeding fake dopamine. For this reason I'm trying to stop all together for a while.

I’ve struggled with that too my but kinda on the opposite side I tell myself there’s nothing wrong with watching without beating it but I usually end up doing it anyways it may take a few days of that routine but it comes around

No I don’t. I see the correctness of the old ways, where people rightly called it by a name less euphemistic or clinical: self-abuse. But this community is not based on my understanding of what a good sobriety definition is.

Well, what are your goals that you set on here? Are you wanting to be free of porn altogether and have improved thoughts and mindset about those around you? If so, then I would say that doing any kind of self touching is still giving your brain that high dose of dopamine. This app is supposed to help you bring back those high levels down to what is considered normal and healthy. It’s all about self control and delaying gratification. We’ve got your back my man! We’ll all get through this in time.

I think it depends of what you want to achieve with these in my case I want to leave porn and masturbation together, so I think it’s okay once in a while in fact it is healthy so don’t be too hard on yourself. Keep pushing 💪🏻

Just out of curiosity tho, is it not a natural thing to happen tho. Like do u think it is still bad?
