Vices, Self-Actualization, and You

Do you live in a city orcityscape?

Try taking your exercise (jog, run, biking) into the more nature part you have. Start day with cold shower, go out into the woods for a brisk walk if nothing else, difference in WANT will become clear in just a few days.

There really are no virtues or vices in any objective sense. One man's decency is another man's degeneracy. There are, however, consequences, for instance getting lung cancer from smoking or ending up lonely because you never learned how to socialize with others, etc. In the end, you die, so find something to do in the meantime and don't worry so much about things.

Can't get away from the computer, even when I have nothing to do. Lost sense of what life actually is.

Exercise till exerted and take cold showers. This will both give you a natural high which will make you feel better, and make you burn fat, which stores THC, so that it will be released, giving your craving some rest and avoiding it happening in the future at an inopportune moment like a drug test.

Remember you don't need to be no fun:

But certainly it's good to cut back.

I don't have a problem with alcohol, I drink it occasionally, nothing excessive.

I used to smoke weed a lot, not so much anymore. Probably smoked weed once this month.

I don't watch porn anymore, I usually just jerk it to a picture or some shit.

No worse than my computer addiction.

Here's a non-SWPL Buddhist monk who does 10-15 min talks on meditation. I can't into Buddhism, but I think the practice is helpful in managing oneself, and anyhow he doesn't wade into a bunch of hippie faggotry:

You need to focus on becoming productive and fulfilled before even worrying about vices.

Think in terms of abundance. Once you're happy and confident in yourself, you'll have better self control.

If you're a depressed NEET, you literally live for your vices. Taking them away will make you depressed and nihilistic and you'll quickly relapse.

Fix what you're insecure about, do what you actually want (while trying to avoid overindulgence), and become a positive, radiant person. It'll be a LOT easier to tackle petty addictions then, when you have more going for you. An important first step is being honest about who you are, what you truly enjoy, and what you really want. Not just what you think you should be/enjoy/want. You can go do that now.

Buddism for white-people is such a hippie/special snowflake kind of solution for an empty f'n life.

No you're not reaching an other plane of existance, you're not feeling muh spirituality, you're LARPing like the faggot that you are.

And why really? If anything, we /polacks needs to stay away from things that dose us off from reality. We need to stay fucking pissed and take action.

My vices are simple.

A nice but inexpensive bottle of wine.
A good six pack of beer.
An occaisional scotch.
A pack of smokes every now and again.
Nutting inside a woman whom I share a mutual affection with.

Moral relativism is complete and utter bullshit beyond the definition of the word bullshit, kiddo. That’s literally rule number 1 when you come to Holla Forums, even if it’s not a conscious or even spoken rule, openly taught. It’s just something that is REQUIRED to understand if you’re EVER going to accept what we discuss here.

...

...

This is the biggest one tbh.

The biggest vice the white race faces is the internet. We communicate through it even though we know big brother is watching every word we type. We get our news from it..etc.

Getting off the internet and into the real world is the white man's vice since the internet has been a thing.

With what do you take issue here? Apathy is the only reason leftists have any power at all. Refusal to be angry at them is why they’re not hanging from lampposts right now. EVERYTHING stems from this. EVERYTHING points back to this simple statement. It’s like how everything wrong in the world DOES eventually flow back to kikes.

The Victorians understood this. They knew that civilization was just a hair’s breadth from animalistic degeneracy and that to maintain it required vigilance, traditionalism, and rationality.

There’s a copypasta that explains that more thoroughly, but I apparently don’t have it.

Straight edge here, can confirm 100%

Yes, because base materialism, reckless behavior, and becoming slaves to our passions has worked out great for us so far.

living by your emotions sounds like something somebody with 2 X chromosomes would do

Blaming something else for your own lack of discipline is the epitome of cowardice. Kill yourselves immediately and rid us of your stupidity.

You're retarded. After the advent of the internet there's hardly been a real movement anywhere.

I have a good woman that is fairly redpilled on several topics (Holocaust, race, national socialism, women/men, etc), but I drink to excess every weekend (never weekday drinking). She never complains, and the fact that she never complains makes me feel like I need to reign that shit in.

I also read this fucking board every day, and have become addicted to researching the depths of esoteric shit.

I listen to nigger music A LOT (funk, disco, soul, rap…) but nigga this shit's rock

I'm also addicted to computer

Dubs of truth.

No job, no life, addicted to my Holla Forums machine, drink more then I plan to drink when I buy it altough I keep it limited to once a week, still live at home (21 yo), also have a medical problem that doesn't seem to go away anytime soon.

I am vice. Here's what I've learned:

most people smoke weed and drink alcohol as a means of control, they aren't actually addicted and they do not actually enjoy these things. Like an anorexic uses food intake as a surrogate for the loss of control elsewhere in life, such is the case with escapism and drugs.

I have a lot of friends that smoke weed ALL GOD DAMN DAY because they've set themselves a budget for the week and they've allotted for x amount spent on weed over y amount of time to be acceptable for themselves. No matter what else goes on, they know they can smoke an eighth a week and pay the rent, so they smoke an eighth because they feel like they're in control. Same goes with alcohol and bar-going. Very few young people are physiologically addicted to alcohol or any substance, they are addicted to whatever meager control they can still assert over their mundane lives.

I don't smoke weed, or drink alcohol, or do any drugs for that matter. I'm a commercial cannabis producer and I've got more money than god and could smoke weed 24/7 at zero expense to myself. I experiment sometimes, giving one of my old high school friends free weed every so often, and no matter what amount I give them, it's gone in a day where I know them to be 1/8th a week smokers when it's their money paying for it. Vice isn't about addiction, it's about juggling a mental token that makes you feel like your own boss.

I don't know if I'm "addicted" to the internet as much as I'm done talking to morons that have no control over their lives and spend all their valuable time and money pretending to. The more social anxiety I overcome, the less I socialize. Kind of depressing, I guess I can always count money and act like it means something.

Bless me (((Father))), for I have sinned. My vice is addiction to Ibogaine HCL. I just can't get enough of the stuff. I take it for everything. It makes me feel normal again.

Help me, (((Father))). What do I do?

Fuck Marcus Aurelius and his "Meditations"

All the shit he wrote was from a broken down old man with his head up his own ass about what a great guy he was.

All he really did was invade kill and enslave many of your ancestors.

Fuck idolizing romans

A vice is immoral. But in a time where anything is accepted how can vice exist. In your heart of hearts your vice is what you truly want. You can attempt to quit your porn addiction using your "will power" but will power doesn't exist. Im not saying you don't have the ability to choose, but in reality your vice is the one thing you commit to. If you truly wanted to no be addicted to weed, or your phone, you would see that the costs to you for doing such things outweigh the satisfaction you get from doing it. if you can't stick with not doing something it's because you didn't fully understand what will happen when you give it up, and you didn't accept that cost.

So what "makes you your own boss" in your opinion? Sounds like you pity people who don't have a lot of money. You give weed to someone who smokes weed, and you're surprised it's gone quickly?

You have a weird perspective on things. Do you have children?

Person also in the cannabis industry here, very poor though lol. Was a daily smoker/dabber for the past 4 years. Where I just arrived I'm surrounded by great greenhouse flower, an abundance of solventless hash.. and I haven't consumed any cannabis, and don't plan to in the future. Your post is gonna make me think more about why I decided that. By the way when I experiment I give my samples to old friends who don't really enjoy smoking, I've found they give better opinions on varieties/terpene profiles/whatever if quality control is what you're after.

I agree 100%. Since I've become socially adept in the past 10 months I don't want to sound cocky, but I found the same motivations between the majority of people who are at the top of the social ladder. And once you find that out, it's simply very boring. Not much else.

If you are actually skillful in growing it's funny, we could probably partner and become kings in any legal states+countries we choose. It's crazy how many people take their position in the industry for granted, legitimately smoking all day even if they're in an executive position.

Apart from my inability to do anything but sit on my computer during my free time (I'd really prefer to read a book or go do odd jobs around the house), I finally seem to have gotten my vices under control.

I used to drink every day. For a few months now I've only allowed myself to drink in social situations when I'm with other people, rather than by myself.

I haven't been high this year and haven't really had an urge to do so.

I can't remember the last time I fapped. This used to be a really difficult one for me, back when I tried doing nofap streaks. Then earlier this year I just started getting bored with porn. Then eventually the desire to fap seemed to fade away. It still comes back occasionally (waking up in the mornings or taking showers) but I've got it under control. It's nice not feeling like a slave to animal cravings.

I've also stopped eating out of boredom and I've improved my diet. Combined with a bit of exercise (bodyweight exercises, walking my dog a few times a day, running around at my job) I've ended up losing several kilos this year. I was 85kg around March/April, now I'm 79kg and dropping.

I feel better than I have in a while. My emotions are more in line and not all over the place. I don't feel tired and slow. I'm better able to push myself to do things that need doing, rather than procrastinating. And my computer addiction that I mentioned? It's still there but even that seems to be getting better. I used to spend practically all my time outside of uni or work on my computer. That's been changing, my hours have notably reduced.

We're all gonna make it.

Seems is if I abandoned this thread a bit too soon

I've heard what he said and I understand the point he was trying to get across.
But, I was thinking along the lines of people who are confused such as not knowing which emotions are which and not knowing things that a person who understands himself would know.

needs bigger tits tbh

I have anger problems and smoke weed, but I won't pretend after a while it becomes a pseudo-hobby. I don't gorge myself in it but I know most will, it's just how it works.

I have really bad anger and depression. When I heard about that summit between Obama, Trudeau, and the mexispic president to approve an American union, I went out and rage-bought a few weapons and a ton of ammo, broke some shit, and ended up yelling at my friends over inane crap. Trump is the only thing keeping me from going full Robert Mathews.

I don't drink. Enjoy killing your liver.

Modafinil only during exam times to study for 72 hours straight

fap multiple times every day, sometimes with, sometimes without. It's impossible to stop.

I'm a /g/ Holla Forums here, but when I used to be active in these boards, it was on 4cuck, wasn't bad thenentooman, so I'm fairly redpilled on those little spying devices, I only use them to make calls and… validate muh steam trades.

TF2 is too hard to quit. There's even an update coming around pretty soon, don't think I'll quit it any time soon. Investing money and 1500+ hours into it so far.

Also I'm drinking and watching more porn. Every day I'm blasting back more caffeine and whatnot to get by because I'm getting less and less sleep.

I need the race war to happen. Or at least an ideological or civil one. I just want to fight.

Great diet, regular exercise and some form of meditation solves most of these issues.

You're actually right that we need to develop a sense of righteous anger, come to think of it. It just can't be in the juvenile way you presented it initially. It has to be the slow simmering righteous anger of "you don't want to do that" combined with disdain.

Ok let's not get all soft here. We are being attacked. You know we won't let it happen. Tomorrow (he'll say), we have the evidence. And that's it. The a Judge goes out, no, not a GTO(smiling), Tomorrow. And they are finished. 2: No worries from here on out he'll say

Gonna go ahead and illegally post this book by Brian Tracy. It goes far beyond self-help and is to me practically the bible of success. You don't have to read front-to-back, my dad lent it to me and I spent a month flipping around and by the end of it I had read the whole thing without reading more than 10 pages in order. It is a pretty damn great book and I highly recommend it to everybody here. Study it, live by it, read it once a year or refer to it all the time, whatever. And someday buy a physical copy to support Tracy, he worked hard on this book.

There are lots of good posts ITT. The solutions are much more simple than we may realize. This user has dropped a real gem of wisdom. Understanding the sources of our vices through intellectualization is a useful tool, I think, but to do only that has gotten me trapped in a bog.

I am currently in the process of giving up alcohol, which I moved to after another period of polysubstance abuse, and cigarettes are next. I'd like to share a technique I only begun to implement which I believe is going to net me great success.

I picked up a medium sized singing bowl. This is a meditation tool which has been in use for more than 2000 years; it originated in India and made its way to Tibet, where the Buddhists refined it as a science and art.

I lit a sage candle, sat down on a pillow, and sounded the bowl, letting it ring out. I then sat the bowl down on its cushion and gave it one more tap. I experienced something curious here. Often when I practice meditation I have many intrusive thoughts, but this time what I had was a vibrous, bright ringing sensation in my head. This was not ringing in my ears by any means. It was ringing in my head.

I thought a simple mantra: "Sound mind. Sound body. Sober." And I let the residual vibrations of the bowl vibrate me toward a frame of sound sobriety.

I am still experiencing cravings for alcohol, but I will not succumb to them tonight.

Please note that i am not a Buddhist and I am not encouraging anyone to convert to Buddhism. But singing bowls are magical.

Pornography. I dunno what it is but I've never been able to last more than a week without fapping but I inevitably go back to it. It never really bothered me until
I found myself getting so bored with the usual vanilla stuff I started looking at /hebe/ and "family nudism" shit. I think it's mostly the "taboo-ness" that gets me off. I don't ever fantasize or think about that kinda shit in my day to day and half the time I get off just at the risky feeling I get looking up that shit.
Honestly one of the few things I'm legitimately ashamed about.

I feel like I have absolutely no self control. It doesn't help that I have no schedule. What can I do to gain some fucking sanity and self control back? It's hard times lads. I can't see the light at the end of this tunnel.

neet for years, might get a decent job soon due to a friend. i really hope it works out because I'm so sick of having no means to fulfill my interests. having free time is nice but having it with no direction zaps your mind in weird ways. as an example I started a small project back in November that would have costed anywhere from $160-250 in new parts and all the old parts for it are still sitting on the table from way back then, ready to be replaced and reassembled and no new parts to be seen.
I read a post here on Holla Forums a fews days ago that was along the lines of "our ancestors fought in wars while we get nervous talking to girls, or going into a job interview"I know I butchered that. I've been going back to that every time I think about putting something off lately, it's helped more than I thought it would.

fap to much/porn, waste of time and the killer of any motivation I have, i don't really have to go into that one

I eat to many sweets and empty snacks too, total waste of money. luckily no drug issues even if I do like alcohol and good tobacco from time to time.

Drink your beer, must be Non GMO like Heineken and add Simply Brand Mango and Orange Juice in a tall German thin glass. Pour the Glass Bottled beer in first, then add enough Juice to bring a head to the top. Drink Every Beer this way. Eventually, it will cure you of Alcoholism. Taking Ranitidine won't hurt the curing process.

>Falling so low to browsing /hebe/
We're all gonna make it, brah. Despite what the lower classes of users say, it's a good thing that they nuked those kinds of boards.

I don't think I buy it, lad. I've had enough alcohol. Experience has proven to me over and over that for me, the stuff is poison.

There are better ways to alter my consciousness. Abstinence is my way for now. If I ever feel compelled to play with fire again, I will bear your advice in mind.

nigger what. I do not understand.

I'm starting to get white spots that occasionally appears all over my forearms and quads. Went to a dermatologist last week they said it's permanent but to minimize it I need to spend more time outside, get more sun and need more zinc.

Your going to be great brother, OP gave you the key, I just provided ignition.

In theory, but what you more importantly need is Organic Sulfur Crystals. Not MSM, Organic Sulfur Crystals. This along with the suggested sunlight exposure and the right foods, especially Avocados and Tuna Fish will dramatically increase anti-oxidation of cells. But the sulfur crystals inside the digestive tract are paramount to re-uptake of melatonin which can cross the Blood Barrier. It is the Transport

Yea, it's just a very large blow to my sense of pride to know that I actually went so low as to look at that shit.

Just one more thing before I go. When you use the combination I provided, I said it will cure you of Alcoholism, It will not(don't panic Mr. Heineken CEO) ban you from chosing to drink. But your intake will be limited to just a few glasses before any more, even likely, just 1 as the threshold, before your body's memory of sensory habit will decrease the scale of reward which is normally the opposite in increase.

i see you have decent taste, but posting this shit isn't helping anyone.

I do not approve.

I know that feel bro. I start waking up late, eating excessively, and I even start jerking it again. Like a lot.

I find staying busy helps. Just find something to do, it doesn't have to be very interesting. Ride a bike, read a book, hell, write a book.

I have this routine lately where I wake up, at around 8.30 or 9, watch a movie, do something active, shower, read, and then take it from there, usually with some friends online or something.

It all takes my mind off not having a girlfriend, much money, or even a solid direction in life. I just need to keep trying and keep going or else depression will start to settle in again. Even now I can feel it right on my heels.

You're not alone, user. We have to fight the darkness together.

fuck off.

Been going to the gym, but not dropping weight as fast as I would like. Probably because I love sweets too damn much.
Feel like I havent succeeded in life. I have a job, but it's not what I studied in university. Faiked enough actuarial exams that i'm discouraged from even attempting. Stuck in a rut of self hate now and end up spending large anounts of time doing nothing. Think about offing myself sometimes.
Pretty much got this from my time looking at news and Holla Forums. living in commiefornia doesn't help either. Can't really enjoy the things I used to as a result of being some level of pissed and/or depressed all the time. Strained relationships with my friends due to me being a little more spiteful around them recently.
Fap almost everyday, two to three times a day. Mainly out of boredom now.
Been wanting to take up writing or art or getting back into GMing tabletop games, but feel like any creativity or imagination I have is dead or dying.

Fuck, i'm a mess. How do I fix myself up or get enough motivation to try and fix myself up?

Remember to take Arnolds advise. Not even the Sanhedrin will see you, for they have but one eye. The other they wish they had, and so they bless their one eye and shed no tear for the other, but not Judgment will fall upon you.

Ibogaine?

This is a badass thread that hits at the very core.

We're stuck! We all know what we need to do but we're not doing it because we love life! It's a fucking lock!

I ain't stuck bitch. Fuck you. Do 30 pushups

that's the plan, man.

Just wondering, is nofap necessary if you know for sure that you're never, ever getting laid? Would once a week be too much?

Every single habitual cannabis user I've ever known has obvious mental problems. Whether their madness drives them to the drug or the drug drives them to madness I cannot say. But I'll leave it to others to make that discovery for themselves.

the whole book is him tearing himself down and chiding himself for his mistakes.

its the ultimate in self mastery, if you can do that you'll know you can really do anything your body is capable of.

...

It doesn't seem like anyone else is doing this in this thread, but maybe doing this will help me be a little more accountable if random, anonymous, strangers on the internet know about my problems.

Seems to be a common thing in this thread, and very common among chan users who want that quick Dopamine hit. Like many chan users I've gotten a bit past the mainstream and gone to dark depths of porn: /d/, loli, bestiality, and even interracial (in my defense, it's the same as bestiality to me). Last night when I was having trouble sleeping I stumbled upon a manga where a boy is fucked by his futa sister in his ass so much, that he develops a womb in his colon, and gets pregnant. This is some advanced degeneracy.

I'm drinking an energy drink right now. I know these things wreck your body, with causing issues like: fatty liver disease, lowered testosterone from the sugar, kidney stones, and ruining your sleep with their high doses of caffeine. But they've been engineered using Jewish physics to hit that perfect "bliss point" so they're highly desirable. I know they're worthless as "food" substance, and I've tried quitting altogether in the past, but shit, when they're on every street corner, it's hard to get away.

I guess this could be considered just standard time wasting, but chan use, I think, is particularly worse than browsing normie sites like facebook or reddit simply due to the amount and type of content. Going back to porn; I would have half the fetishes I do know if not for finding 4chan. Of course, chan use isn't too bad if you stick to better quality boards like here and /fit/ for example.

Sorry for the blog post, but I guess that's the point of this thread. Enjoy some pics from my motivation folder. Hopefully, maybe tomorrow, we can have a self-improvement thread to discuss breaking our vices.

The key to all of this is very simple, even though it is hard. Stop doing it.

Go buy a dumbphone, transfer your sim card over, and decide "For the next year I won't drink, smoke, or watch porn." Then do it.

Just because, I s'pose I'll answer this. I was speaking with my normal (for Holla Forums) voice of irony, but you just didn't know enough to get it.

Ibogaine isn't really a mind-confusing psychedelic at all. I think of it as a dreaming drug, though a very, very, very strong one. People have died from taking ibogaine. I nearly did. Should I ever take it again. I might die from it. It's a very serious drug, not a party drug, not something someone can be addicted to.

Additionally, a whole underground industry has arisen that helps people taking ibogaine as a last-resort way to overcome their addictions, esp. to opiates. Ibogaine breaks the addiction cycle.

If you take a heroic dose of ibogaine once, then (provided you've survived…) you won't want to take it again for a long time. It's just way, way, way too intense.

To reiterate, ibogaine's uses are two-fold:
1 - physically: It helps alleviate withdrawal, interrupting the addictive cycle, and cleansing the body, esp. the liver. If you ever want to take ibogaine, it's a really good idea to be a clean as possible first, and then to go on a juice fast for a few days, only eating some light meal (perhaps half an avocado) right before taking it.
2 - mentally: Don't expect wall-melting or confusing changes in one's perceptions, but rather powerful dreams of a psychological nature… when you close eyes to sleep. Later, depending on the strength of the dose and your susceptibility to it, you may see psychic perceptions superimposed upon your normal perceptions. Ibogaine's primary use is as an initiation into adulthood. One might have an NDE (as I did), meet one's dead ancestors, or relive ego-forming traumas of the past. What you do with ibogaine is really kinda up to your intentions. It doesn't confuse your mind, but rather helps you dream.

In any case, never, never take ibogaine lightly. An ibogaine trip is a life-transforming event, a true initiation experience, and should be treated with the utmost respect. This is one drug that cannot be used as a party drug, but can be used to treat those who use party drugs.

Oh, and it's illegal in the US, but not in Canada, Mexico, or parts of Europe.

Piss off Kike.

Most of those who fail on devoloping good habits do so by starting with over ambitious goals.

Set easier goals to achieve. My vwere: I want to have a habit of going to the gym. Even if I were there for 10 min doing one pushup or just enjoying the sauna i reached my goal. Since that is an easy goal to achieve, I now had the habit of going to the gym everyday. Starting a good weight lifting program just felt natural because the initial mental block of going to the gym was gone. I don't go everyday anymore, I follow the program, 4 days a week. You could do the same with any other habit, want to have nice orderly clean room? Making your bed everday is your new goal. 30 days straight and you will have new habit. No mental block will stand in your way. Just add new productive things.

laziness is probably my worst vice, i've lost this semester on college because i couldn't wake up, or because i didn't want to get wet in the rain, or just because i didn't wanted to get out my home.
i've come to a stage that i was lazy enough to eat, and living alone theres no one to help me on that.
the vacations started, tomorrow i'm going home and i hope the next 6 months i get back on the track

My advice would be to read my post above and watch the vid. Make a set of easy daily goals to achieve. Example:
1. A 10 min walk.
2. Make your bed.
3. Read 5 pages in a book.
Very simple tasks. Do so for 30 days it will become a habit. If you feel like doing more some days, good fucking job. It is better than nothing anyways,

thank you, user!
i'll start doing these things

I have been in your position. It sucked, it was mental hell, I had no energy. It is the small steps that matter, there is no shortcut. Build the foundation and keep adding bricks and you will have a castle. Promise yourself: ==NO MORE ZERO DAYS!==

vices are not an issue; my issue is that i can't motivate myself to change.

i was supposed to study for university…i failed 3 years because i am unhappy and i can't find a reason to live.
everyday i promise myself i'll start running, eating correctly, meditating, reading, studying, stop staring at a screen for 13 hours/day, start looking for a boyfriend so i could be happy. but i never start.When i start i forget after 2 days and i am fucking over.

how do i keep my motivation going?

33 days streak in no-fap here. Last time I managed 30. It's piece of cake now.

I go to gym 4 times a week, drive bicycle and do yoga 2 times/week.

Trying to read one book every week. Currently finishing Devi's Lightning and the Sun. 10/10 read.

I'm learning German one hour every day.

Take only cold showers and drink only water, lots of it.

I shitpost too much tho. I will probably delete all my social media accounts and go offline for a while.

What's pushing me to be better is love of my people and hatred of my enemies. And Fuhrer of course.

im jew

Motivation is fickle, it comes with momentum. Momentum only start with small steps in the right direction, like a boulder on the cliff edge, one nudge it starts to move, increasing in speed down the hill. You don't need motivation, what you need is enough will to take a small step in the right direction. Look at the vid . Small steps, build momentum, a habit starts to form. From that self respects and from self respect - belief in your abilities that will give you hope. Hope for something better - now you will start seeing the possiblities.

I came to the conclusion the screen watching can really make your sleep low in quality and thus drain all your energies for the day after.
Try to go 1 day without screens. Do anything you can to stick to this one-day goal, spend it eating, dicking around, whatever (the best way would be socializing though, because that's the number one means to overcome addictions). The day after set your alarm clock to a reasonable time and get out of the bed immediately. You'll feel very different.

Good job user! You are an inspirations to us all.

Just ordered it on Amazon. Thanks for the recommendation.

You realize that modern Cannabis is extremely harmful right?

It has been grown in order to produce maximal THC, without increasing the other chemical constituents. THC is harmful without the other chemical constituents found in Cannabis in the equal amounts found in natural Cannabis.

first time hearing that, could you elaborate on it?

...

∆9-THC is the psychoactive compound in Cannabis and the two main components are that and Cannabidiol though there are some 113 known cannabinoids. No there is no LD50 caused by THC (in natural form) but high amounts in prolonged use can cause mild psychosis and other adverse affects which Cannabidiol would normally prevent as Cannabidiol has been shown to help treat psychosis and schizophrenia.

i set a rain of alarm clocks at maximum volume going from 6 AM to 7 AM. i wake up at 9 AM. Every fucking day.

Datamining thread?

...

That doesn't sound all that harmful

...

Have you read my post?
It used to happen all the time to me too. And it was because of poor sleep, caused by too many hours of PC, phone and other screens the day before.

You just described my oldest friend. It deeply saddens me to see him go deeper down the hurr420blazeitfaget by the day. I quit for close to 6 months and only ever smoked again since because of him.
Hearing him say "user you've changed since you haven't smoked and i respect that, but please don't become a completely different person" made me have a "fuck it" moment just long enough to hit that blunt. I enjoyed the 2 high hours and hated myself the whole week afterwards. It's a monthly cycle already.
Help?

That's some good anecdotal evidence there user.
Too bad that's not evidence. You are an authority on nothing.

Good thread topic OP. I'm gonna shill for the >>>/overman/ board, a fellow Holla Forumslack created it to be a board for general discussion of physical, mental, and spiritual improvement.

I don't drink, smoke or do drugs, but I am a slave to my addiction to pornography and junk food.

There was a period of time where I was seriously committed to self-improvement. A few months where I was eating healthy, exercising, doing nofap, and getting plenty of sleep, and looking back on it I really felt in control of my life. It ended with an injury that put me out of commission for a few weeks. I fell off of the wagon, and haven't made a solid attempt to get back on since then.

I need to remember how good eating sleeping and living well felt, and reset my day counters. Good habits make good people.

It's all about will power. If you're a strong person you can quit anything cold turkey. If you find yourself craving it occupy your mind with something else… Other than caffine I have never really been addicted to anything though. I cannot relate to those who cannot just say 'no' and walk away. I sincerely hope you guys can get over your porn addictions though, I find that one the most disturbing to hear about.

The usual. Depressed NEET, been out of the game too long, find it hard to get back in. Lack of confidence, no friends, no money. Too much porn and fapping, numerous attempts always fail.

haha no

Go get pozzed you bug chasing nigger

I did the military, university, and then started my career. I began having a lot of problems with my life and eventually I got diagnosed with Asperger's.

Now I work from my own home in a little white town. Due to my mental problems I don't want to have kids or a real relationship. I basically just exercise, read, do my work stuff, and post on Holla Forums.

I am independent and my life is pretty good for a sperg, but it feels like I should be doing something more. But then again my problems are pretty bad and I absolutely crave my routine.

I don't know. Maybe I should just continue to tread water until the race war.

Were you really born autist or did you become one gradually by zoning out?

Way better info here:
steephill.com/science/cannabinoids
A quick google search on the individual cannabinoids will get you more information. For instance CBD is a very effective for depression, anxiety and pain. The main issue is there's usually way more THC in most strains which causes anxiety for most people, because most THC-addicted pot heads are just retards who want to get as fucked up as possible. Other cannabinoids have shown promise as potential cancer treatments but isolating them in significant quantities has been met with nothing but legal, financial, and technical roadblocks.

This isn't entirely true. There are tons of different strains out there, many with very low THC such as Harlequin, Harley-Tsu, Charlotte’s Web, Avidekel, just to name a few. THC isn't "extremely harmful" either in the literal sense of those words, individual reactions vary wildly and all effects are only temporary.

With that said though, I personally do not really like THC much myself, but I know others for whom it causes no anxiety and really evens them out. My cousin was put on half a dozen medications for PTSD when he got back from Afghanistan that completely fucked him up and made him crazier than before. Now all he needs is weed and he's completely functional no matter how much he smokes. He's more the exception but he's not the only person I've met like this, it seems a fairly common reastion. THC can do wonders for some people when actually used as a medicine.

I was always an autist. It was a great relief to know my lifelong problems had a name; everything made sense after that.

Sounds like I might have hurt your feelings:^)

This mentality is toxic. Misery loves company. He's not likely even consciously aware of it but he's trying to drag you down to his level of worthlessness to have some company. You need to pull him out, or cut him out, don't stoop back to his level. Ask yourself if going back to that lifestyle is worth hating yourself and knowing that you're being a lazy worthless piece of shit.

Did you feel it was all an act when in company with others? Like almost mechanical, scripted.

Yes, tbh fam.

And sometimes I malfunction, giving the wrong scripted reply.

I feel you bro. It's surreal sometimes when I socialise. I sit there and just fake all the interaction, like i'm an actor. And other times I am just not "there", zoned out, like in a bubble.
I have to force myself to pay attention, drains my energy. I'm not bad at acting either much of it is automated by now. But sometimes I slip. Would love to overcome this sense of seperation, maybe psykadeliks would help.

Welcome to being human. Everyone that's ever worked a service job does that, you're probably just a cynical guy that doesn't like the company of dickheads. I'm partially deaf and I can't hear 90% of what people mouth at me, so I usually just say "likewise" whenever their mouth stops moving and that's good enough. I sincerely believe 100% of people are on the spectrum, it's just an excuse to massage unemployment numbers and capture more votes via government largess. You aren't retarded, stop telling yourself that. I can't pay attention to people for obvious reasons, does that make me retarded or is most interpersonal interaction nervous filler? I think the latter.

You don't like small talk, that doesn't make you autistic. People that do like small talk are usually alcoholics with families that abandoned them (sounds like a massive generalization, but if you're in the US, generally people are alcoholics).

I'm intrigued. Could you go into more detail about what you experienced while being under the influence of ibogaine

I have an almost constant, unwaning desire to be alone most days. I go to the gym 3-5 days per week with two other guys, but most of the time I zone out while they talk about a video game they play together. Most of the time, having any kind of human interaction puts me in a terrible mood. I don't get lonely very often and I feel like I could go months without speaking to anyone and be satisfied.

Am I a legitimate autist?

I guess to my credit, I can hold a conversation well enough. People never suspect there's anything off about me, or if they do, they don't show any signs.

sorry i am in italy ;_;

You know why you can't kick your addictions?

the natural fluctuations of life and your natural biology…. Learn to ride the low tides and the high, and except reality. Virtue isn't being some "perfect" circle. That's a Chistcuck's version inspired by (((Jesus))). Virtue is happiness, because you're living a natural life, a human life, within your nature.

As Nietzsche said, there are wills within you struggling each other.

It is not about what TV or popular culture tells you its possible, everything is possible with the power of will. The only way to escape the degeneracy is to start with yourself.

Do you have any sensory issues? The main problems are usually sensory, which are a really big deal but not something most normies seem to understand about it. It's so much more than being a loner, having bad eye contact, etc.

Tony Attwood has a guide to Asperger's / autism that is considered the standard work. You might want to check it out at the bookstore or online, fam.

Is meditation better than drugs?

if you go expertmode you can definitely do stuff that is better than most drugs with meditation.

it is certainly more healthy in many ways.

Not that I know of. I haven't been leaving my apartment very often lately though, so I'm not sure if that is due to being in a controlled environment most of the time.

Thanks, will check it out.

I was a heroin addict for a few years, but luckily I got out of it

still battling the Nicotine Jew, although it's not that big of a deal for me, especially considering that Nicotine increases testosterone.

As far as self-actualization, I want to go through a few rational arguments before I propose something, and perhaps I can get advice from you guys. So please answer the initial questions to yourselves, or we can discuss.

-Self-Actualization is a real thing Y/N
-Some religions facilitate self-actualization more than others Y/N
-Foreign entities derive their superior organization relative to whites through their religion Y/N
-Christianity has been dragged through the mud in the media, and no form of Christianity is going to emerge as a viable ethno-religion for Whites Y/N

The conclusions I came to by these questions is that Whites need a religion. A religion that promotes Strength of Will (above all else), nepotism, incentivizes childbearing especially amongst the most intelligent, and provides the means to educate our children separately from the state/ media as it degenerates further

I feel that it is my divine duty to make this religion, but anyone else who feels so can help as well.

Whilst I WILL include religious law, and a framework for a living religion in terms of one book written in stone, and another that is continuously improved over the years. I am aware that in order to have a viable religion through the ages, the second book, the living religion book, will eventually emerge as the greater and more helpful of the two texts, so the 1st book which is written in stone will be the skeleton of a religion that can continuously change it's outer clothes to the times.

What do you guys think?

Also keep in mind that there is LITERALLY an ethno-religious part of the brain. When turned off through electro-magnetic fields, these people lose both their faith in a God, but also they lose their wariness towards foreigners. read:Liberals think "wow! we turn off a part of the brain and suddenly people are atheists AND not racist, just like us!"

I think that with the rise of atheism, the godless whites will breed out of their races more and more. This is why the stereotype of the "racist christians" exist.

Are you also a CyberVegan?

culture means more than that. Atheists can be nationalist and racist. look at Nazi germany.

your duty is not divine, you just want it.
anyway look up /asatru/ and other alternative religions. why make one when there are more avaible?

you don't need a religion that encourage breeding within your race or among intelligent people.
as long as a religion is not a globalist kikery like christianity ( that litterally preach racemixing) or puts absolutely no accent on individuality and accomplishment, then the religion is going to encourage breeding with good people and not with shitskin automatically.
well as long as you don't make your best people priests and then forbid them to have sex like some cuck religion did.

HA I'm glad you caught that. Name sounded cool. Nah I'm not a cybervegan

this would be true, if our culture wasn't controlled by the media. Seriously, people's heads are being filled with media, which is controlled by an outside force, so no, they won't become nationalists.

also, one could argue that the Nazi's were essentially a religion, they have all the elements of a religion.

because the fact that none of these religions are successful in unifying white people across a large swathe shows that they are inneffective. Other ethnicities have a single religion which unifies them, even if they themselves are 'atheists', they prefer people in their own ethno-religions

none of the meme religions you mentioned have that power, nor is it specifically written within their doctine, not to mention that they are not made in such a way that they will ever spread in any viable manner.

Oh god. That second and third graphic. Depressing.

My vice is thinking I don't need help.

Reading through this thread and seeing your post made me feel a little better about myself. I've usually thought myself as retarded due to being profound deaf and can't handle… well, talking with anyone at all, only pretending to understand and play dumb when they ask me questions. Hell, we communicate mainly via writing on notebooks!…

I know it's stupid of me to play the role of a cripple bad habit when I know I can do much more - simply from following small steps listed around the thread.

Laithe is that you?

Kek. I only fap to free-range 2D Japanese cartoons, created by their artists solely for the love of the craft and the unity of mankind that is the dick.

why do people try to rationalize masturbation??

Anime lovers are some of the most mentally crippled people in the West.

Because it's an addiction mate.

what exactly is wrong with masturbation?

if you need science you can look it up

If you are pragmatic enough, just look at it like this

what would be wrong with pleasuring yourself every single day, with the aid of a fake video (so only your sight and sound senses are utilized), with that video being of you watching a couple have sex?

Also, look at it this way (you can research this yourself, I don't need to break your addiction for you)

monkeys masturbate sometimes. The beta male monkeys masturbate watching the alpha male monkey have sex with the females. This masturbation also lowers these monkey's testosterone, as a natural reaction in order to make sure that these monkeys don't try to start fights with the alpha male

in other species as well, once an alpha male is decided, other potential alpha males have increasing estrogen, and in some cases they become females

Sounds 3DPD as fuck, you should try some purest love sometime.

sex also lowers testosterone, with your logic you shouldn't have sex

I'll have you know, perverted filth, that the purest form of love is between a man and his waifu.

Reform your ways immediately.

It releases a bunch of hormones into your body/brain that have a cascade of ill effects. Prolactin/progesterone come to mind. Even worse is that is makes one vulnerable to the (((prornography industry))) which can exacerbate these hormonal issues and make them chronic.

are those hormones not released during sex too?

But the Jew fears the Samurai.

They are released during sex as well. The hormones are released as such to help with pair bonding. Oxytocin raises after sex but not after typical masturbation.

How many times have you had sex?

Now compare to how many times you've masturbated. Masturbation is an abusal of natural systems.

As for me, I simply have to live to the standards God has set. I found breaking vices to be extremely easy by praying and feeling real repentance for my acts and behaviors. There is surely a more pseudo-intellectual explanation for it using psychological terms somewhere for this. But It werks.

The rewards has been immense and I live a life that consists a little less of distracting myself with masturbation/fornicating/drugging it up. I fill the void by working out and reading books.

they are not released in nearly the same numbers, also you ahve to wonder at the subconscious effect of seeing a bunch of things that you are imagining are dicks.

not to mention using one side of your brain, promoting parts of your brain that shouldn't be promoted

I can say with confidence that after quitting masturbating, I feel much better and am a much better person.

Pair bonding and social order*. As another mentioned, beta males masturbate and this maintains higher social cohesion which leads to more successful groups, which is why it is evolutionarily advantageous.

Masturbation is the choice between follower/outcast and leader at the biological level.

If you can only do it once every few weeks to a month it's alright. But the nature of masturbation is addictive. The more you do it the more defined those neural pathways become and the more likely you are to do it.

You're better off going without it completely and just having nocturnal emissions.

either this or even banging hookers

tbh nocturnal emissions do not feel good for me. It may be because of my porn addiction habit in the past that I broke (I was a porn addict for probably 6 years straight) my nocturnal emissions are particularly degenerate: fucking my cousins, rape, etc. Not things I like to have in my mind-space.

Also, having actual sex increases the amount of testosterone that your body makes. basically you will make more testosterone/ day.

I used to be nervous around women. Once I had stopped masturbating for a while, I also lift now, instead of a manic attitude about talking to women, I can do it with a saucy approach and it's completely socially allowed.

porn =/= masturbation

Answer me again. What is wrong with masturbation? I don't watch porn, and the images that I do jack off to never have any males in them.

You're not going to be having sex multiple times a day, every day.

Only average once a week at most. I hate drinking since my mother is/has been an alcoholic my whole life so I don't want to fall into the habit. Also makes me feel like shit and messes up my sleep big time.

Never.

My biggest problem. I don't watch much porn anymore but fapping is a problem. I can go a week or so and then I'll have a day where I literally can't think about anything else than sex and relapse.

My job is so mind numbingly boring that I spend so much fucking time on my phone just to stimulate my brain somehow. I listen to a lot of podcasts/radio shows and read tons of articles but I'm hooked on this thing and it's invading my at home life now too. Granted I have learned a ton but I spend way too much time looking at a screen every day.

I do have my diet and fitness in order. Eating a mostly paleo/primal diet and have been into lifting for 5 years and basketball for 12. I keep getting hurt which has thrown lifting off track, so I've been playing more basketball but I'm sick of playing against niggers.

I need to learn focus and how to budget time better. Being a single dude I just kind of do whatever I want when I want. I never meet quality girls so dgaf about relationships. I need to find more like minded people, tired of normies that just want to drink their ass off every weekend. How do I meet people who like doing outdoor shit and bettering themselves?

When I think about it, the times when I am chronically masturbating each and every day are the times I feel the absolute worst, the loneliest, the most like my life has absolutely no meaning and nothing I do matters.

Yet it's hard to break the cycle, especially when I am so down. The porn, the pleasure of touching oneself and the release become what I look forward to, one of the only times during the day I feel better.

It's a dangerous cycle that feeds back into itself. This is probably how a drug addict feels.

My vice is /fit/ based, in that I maintain good health and try to eat well. Not fat, but I fight every day to force myself to workout, but still hate it a ton. I don't know how anyone can be excited to go to the gym, I just see it as another chore, and now that my gym buddy has had to switch coasts I fear I won't go nearly as often.

Some people enjoy pushing themselves. I've never been fond of exercising for the sake of it. I like to ride my bike, though.
You just have to find some physical activity that you enjoy doing. Maybe take up hiking.

Why am I alive tbh (I reject that thought)

I've taken so many steps forward but the old vices are still with me. In many ways I haven't changed at all in the last five years (I reject that thought)

I love going to the gym. Maybe you need to change your routine. Lift (moderately) heavy and give yourself plenty of rest between sets. I think of it as leisure rather than a challenge and enjoy the rush that a heavy set gives me. When I reach the point where I'm tired and want to go home, I do.

That pretty much seals it. I'm trying to get fit, but who knows before I hit that progress wall and go fuck off to do something else, or life hits me with a right hook and I don't feel like working my ass off just to regain the lost time.

I'm pretty much just swinging in a void at this point. I don't know why I'm here or what I'm doing, but I'm getting ready for something.

Yep, I'm feeling you on all counts there. My sleep schedule is shit, my diet is shit and I jack off too much.
There's a couple things I'd like to be good at, but my self-doubt destroys me every time I try to put effort into them.

Being bored out of your mind by brain-dead normies and being fine with your own company in the face of no true stimulating relationships does not make you an autist. It means you're sane and have some intelligence.

Just try it for yourself. Use it as a self-control exercise - don't masturbate for a few weeks, and see how you feel compared to when you do masturbate. Personally, it wastes my energy, makes me tired, and I feel like a hedonistic addicted monkey.

I'm in the process of eliminating my most soul destroying vice(s): excessive escapism.

I'm a demoralized straight white male who has been dissuaded from ambition, enterprise, and romance for the majority of my life. To cope with the horrible state that reality is in, I've indulged in the lore of games, comics, playing cards, and porn. I've recently eliminated the porn (by the grace of God) and am now trying to fix my character by getting rid of all the other shit.

It's proving a little difficult however, since enterprise and ambition aren't things you can just develop overnight. I have no experience selling things, so I'm stuck with 65 console games, close to ten thousand cards, and a stack of comicbooks.

I love all of them, but I want to let go of them–and I have the capacity for it. The know how for doing so is rather tricky, however.

My vices are

Been clean a week. I was addicted to fetish to the point I dreamed about it and had to jack it every day but could spend hours drawing a jerking session out

Not addicted, but don't like who I become when drinking. One weekend of drinking in the last 6 months

Cannot seem to break this. I am fit and strong and lean by most people's standards but I eat too much sugar, often when bored.

I have wasted entire days browsing chans, plebbit etc instead of doing something productive.

I know exactly what doujin you're talking about.
Boy that one was fucking stupid.

Seems like a growing trend, too - guys who like futa and like to be dominated. Why are chicks with dicks so popular these days?

You don't necessarily have to lift. Why not do a sport or martial arts/wrestling instead? I lift a few times a week and play tennis a few times a week too. I'm way more into tennis because it's so fast paced and dynamic, whereas lifting is kind of boring to me, but I like the rush it gives when you go hard and just want more strength in general.

You need a real replacement for those things or you'll never get them out of your life. Escapism is how humans cope with how shitty and boring their lives are.
If you're just bored all the time because you went from escaping to doing nothing, you'll head right back to it.

Literally me.
I got into a top Engineering college when I was 18 but ended up quitting, now I'm fucking 25 with no accomplishments, and scared to start again from scratch because I'd only graduate at 30, and that's if I don't fail any classes at all.
My sleep schedule is completely fucked up, and it loops every month since I seem to go to bed 1 hour later every day kinda.

My biggest vice at this point is probably Holla Forums. I love this place, but I waste too much time here instead of taking action in the real world. Also, reading day in and day out about the horrors of the world and the seeming insurmountable situation of the white race can drive you crazy. It's an addiction in itself to always have to know what's happening, always being stimulated by something new. I think it holds you back at an individual level in a big way.

I just turned 19 years old with no idea what I want to do with my life, I live with my mom, after my dad commited suicide after becoming a tranny. It's getting pretty depressing to even go on, I only lift and go to work, stagnating slowly.

I'm thinking of joining the military, or something that will give me a job and some sort of purpose. I don't really care if the miltary is supposedly pozzed, it's better where I am now…

Dude, I'm 25 and I was in a similar position when I was 19, and if I could go back in time and tell 19 year old me something, I'd just say do something. Don't NEET it up.

lol

Consider for a moment regular porn. It emphasizes two different symbols: the feminine form and the phallus. The brain, being an extremely adaptive component of the human psyche, tends to break concepts down into a simpler units of understanding that get your mind from point A to point B faster and faster with every session of exposure to a given concept. As time goes on, the brain consolidates the primary signals and signifieds into more visceral, less visual groups.

When you watch enough porn, you realize the actors don't matter, but rather roles and symbols they represent: a hot chick playing with a massive schlong really does it for most people–boy or girl. Anything beyond that comes across as complex and unnecessary. As such, shemales and sissies strike you as a logical evolution–or even a conclusion–as far as pornographic fetishism is concerned. Manga exacerbates the issue of androgyny since the mangaka has total control over the visual and literal narrative, signal-boosting these consolidated signs and symbols using post-structural techniques designed to emphasize a kind of reconciliation between the abnormally esoteric concept and the traditionally accepted reality. i.e. Objective designations like "Man" and "Woman" don't matter, but rather "Masculine" and "Feminine" since they're more abstract concepts that can be assigned to either sex without breaking reality outright. And thus, you're faced with an eventual normality of degeneracy.

Ultimately, pornography is an inherently feminine construct. Anyone who watches it for a prolonged period of time will end up being mentally castrated–or even physically if you become too obsessed (see also: the dramatic uptick in traps over the past decade).

Yes, I am that degenerate that allowed myself to be brainwashed in jerking it to shemales and ladyboys–men who destroyed their own bodies. I am now in recovery.

I can't find the manga panel that first featured it, but there was a funny scenario where a bunch of kids were making fun of a boy in the class who only watched lesbian porn since it offered no representation for men, and therefore no outlet for their urges. But the kid pointed out that because you're looking at the chick the whole time, you're actually identifying with her as she worships the phallus, and so he made sure none were in sight.

Forgot to mention that the kikes are absolutely aware of this, which is why they've pushed it for thousands of years.

Wish I could edit.

But of course. The surge of trannies in the past decade and especially the last few years - along with the push for them to become accepted - should be no real surprise to anyone. We're witnessing the first generation that has had constant exposure to pornography their entire development from young adolescent (or even childhood) to adulthood, and a huge number of them are sexually confused, imbalanced, or transgender.

I have been a daily user of alcohol in the past, to self-medicate psychological problems.

It made me fat, destroyed my workout regime completely and sucked my finances dry.
I switched to kratom, which in case you don't know, is the leaves of a south Asian tree, in the same family as coffee.
This worked much better, I had energy, my depression was gone, activity increased and for the first time in years I started looking for a job.
Then the UK government passed the "psychoactive substances bill" which outlawed all drugs except alcohol, tobacco and caffeine. OK, I can handle this, I will switch to poppy seed tea, which I knew to also work but had used sparingly because the opiate constipation has ripped my arsehole open more than once. Again, I was productive and free of depression (inb4 slippery slope- I have used 6 mths straight in the past without increasing dose and when I wanted to quit, simply switched to kratom = zero withdrawal effects.)
Well, it turns out that the EU has realized that poppy seeds are an illicit source of morphine which had slipped through their Kike fingers. About 3 weeks ago they disappeared from all the shelves in my city. A few days later I was in acute withdrawal and almost at the point of ending my life, got through it using over the counter opiates which contain deadly amounts of paracetamol and a strip of Valium procured from a relative under cover story.
I also habitually use snus in place of cigarettes, again as self-medication. Snus is also illegal in the UK.

It seems like the government has banned every source of relief that does not contribute huge amounts of tax to the exchequer or shorten the life expectancy by decades.
This makes sense, I understand, it is better not to have to pay pensions and cigarettes are the perfect tool, they (usually) allow you to finish your working life but kill you very soon after.

I've never experienced the euphoric high most opiate abusers talk about, merely a feeling of being "normal". I am considering trying marijuana of a medical strain as that seems to offer some hope, unfortunately treating myself in such a way means a daily fear of incarceration.
Not totally related to OP because use as self-medication is not vice or abuse, no matter how much the govt wants it to be.

Serve your country.

I would jerk it maybe 5 times a day not too long ago, and had been doing so since my early teenaged years; around 12 or 13 years old.
I tried going cold-turkey multiple times, tried giving it up in the name of God, and failed every time after maybe a week.
My body is addicted to the sensation, and its become too big a habit, the best I've been able to do is wean myself off a bit.
Nowadays I'm down to 2-3, sometimes even just 1, a day, and will regularly take 1 or 2 day breaks in between.
It's a slow road, but it's a problem that I recognize and thankfully never got too far down the rabbit hole porn-wise. Gave up weird shit a long time ago and mostly just use P in V vanilla
I only hope that God understands I was too weak to my vice, and not that I ever wished to use his name in vain.

I don't drink very often, but when I do I drink to excess.
I felt smug about my youthful ability to drink as much as I wanted and not get a hangover, but even then, no-hangover didn't matter much when the tequila burnt the inside of my stomach and gave me horrible bile-only vomit.
I feel I've learnt my lesson, but fear the siren's call will hit me again one day and I'll be too naive to fight it off.

Now I know its a common joke that everyone on our side of the political spectrum is a basement-dwelling NEET, but I do actually have a problem with this.
Throughout my childhood I always just stayed inside for all my summers, and never went to any friend's houses. I feel this has left me very poorly socialized, and I have pretty bad anxiety around people.
It's not a thing I can rationalize away, its more of a physical reaction my body takes, and I start having panic attacks when I leave sometimes.
I just have this phobia about people seeing me. I know they don't care and that I'm not doing anything wrong or out of the ordinary, but I despise being seen by others, especially people in cars.
I have no problems with dealing with people at my job, but something as simple as taking a walk outside by myself feels like I'm drowning, which is why I only muster the courage up to do it once or twice a year.

THC causes apoptosis in tumor cells.

Mein neger

lets be real though. if it wasn't for porn i would have gone full elliot by now

I used to be like you, when it comes to being outside or being in the public eye and thinking about someone looking at me or wanting to talk to me was crippling.
Now, through years of exposure and trying to talk to people, I've managed to improve - but I still have problems doing things like exercising in public or talking to complete strangers.

Basically you just have to keep confronting your fear and eventually, you'll get used to it and it won't be so scary. That's life.

Jacking off to images of women still makes your brain believe you are getting pussy.

Fap to your imagination or don't fap. Its fapping to any visual aid that is the problem

True, but at the same time, it is the internet which is helping to spread the truth about many things, which could not have been done with the previous one-way, mostly Jew-owned communications system.

I'd rather have the internet as the vice of the white race than talmudvision.

Where the hell do these faggots come from? Is Holla Forums the new landing pad for newfags?

...

If you're growing for Cannabidiol instead of THC you'll have some pretty good bud.
follow directions for a "Charlotte's Web" grow.
People say it doesn't get you high but they are so fucking used to pot with 15%+ THC

it's summer and election year, yes.
remember what happened to /new/?

Datamining is a thing, and I'm surprised the thread is still alive.
Shows how castrated Holla Forums has become in some ways.
Guess the "love your based fashy homos" has taken root in the minds.
Full on cuckening comes next.

There is one virtue: survival and expansion of your genetic and cultural code.

Otherwise, your post is THE post of the thread. Pious deity worship may help some, but it disables many others (such as myself).

Congratulations that you keep moving forward user.
There is no perfect human but striving to be better is an honorable goal. The fact that you have the courage to seek out your imperfections, and the tenacity to keep trying to make better choices, says a lot about the strength of your character.
Improving yourself can be fruitful, but you have to love yourself first.
Treat yourself like a flourishing garden that needs watering, pruning, planting, and general upkeep: not flood or fire.
When you were a baby learning to walk you fell down often but you kept getting back up and trying again until you succeeded. Falling down is part of the learning process and every time you get back up again you succeed.

They are, psychologists are saying this all the time. The difference is how far out on the spectrum you are. The people who are diagnosed are much further out than "normal" people. That's the difference.

I know but god damn isn't he the most stubborn person I know. Cutting him out would be too unnatural at the moment, he's my closest bro (sad for me, I know).

It's worse than that, though. It feels like there are newfags who's ONLY previous exposure to imageboards was "red pilling." Now, they fan out throughout the site, thinking that the entire purpose of Holla Forums is red pilling and national socialism.

It's like when people entered 4chan through Holla Forums or Holla Forums and thought shitposting/video games was the intent of the entire website.

Considering we have a shitlord meme magick user about to be come president, I think our efforts, however bothersome, haven't been in vain at the very least.

I have a friend that had a friend like your own. that "friend" is a nasty, messy, stoner welfare leech that would fuck anything that had a wet hole and dragged my friend down with him due them being friends since childhood. mileage may vary but he's a decent example of this shit
when you have someone like that they can, and will, cut you off or fuck you over for something stupidly petty and that's what happened with them.
fuck 'em. trust me you wont want to do it, but if they're trying to drag you down in some way let them go, cause they will do it again. you wont be able to fix him either, he has to be willing to do it himself otherwise it will be a total waste of effort.

I came to that a while ago, friend. Currently working on trying to combine Norse paganism with Helenistic philosophy to create a sort of "native pan-european religon." or something.

The Aeisrian code (pictured) plays a big role, but I'm a total newbie when it comes to philosophy in general, so I have a ways to go.

Mangia white knight - the code.

Nigger its current year +1.

Every nigger for him self.

I have become something worthy of being called a gestapo officer. I am completely without vice and do a lot of effort for my body to keep it running at optimal conditions. From sport, to proper diets. Also no soda's, no high sugars, no experimental chemicals in our foods etc.

I even have high social virtues. To the helping of elderly, proper dressing, no tattoo's, no provocative behavior. Not to meek, yet also not too aggressive. The time I even got drunk, just for company (I carefully planned it into my diet as to not to lose any gains), I couldnt even get weird as I was able to in the past. Even being blackout drunk does nothing to my ability to be virtuous these days. I literally have no reason to even consume alcohol for these reasons.

I am a pure, jew, nigger and mudslime hating machine. Apart from table manners (and the thousands of different forks that the high society uses). I am at the peak of civilized man.

I am not perfect though, I am still socially deprived as many of you are. I too seek for a gf. But my virtue (and also a bit of fear for closeness) prevents me from just fucking random sloots.

So honestly, I think that the only thing that I really am lacking at is somewhat laziness to self improve myself further, with fringe things like learning foreign languages (I would like to really learn chinese for example), or perhaps train myself to program. But to the matters of the mental world I am mostly a stranger. Perhaps I am just a sporty person and it is not in my nature. But still, I dont even really have procrastination for my daily duties in living anymore. I pay my debts, know archive most of my papers, also occasionally go and do work things.

Still though, this is why I am and on the biological vices I am something like a pure angel. I feel no need to consume drugs of any kind, be they mild or extreme, not even with "Group pressure". Just never. I feel completely fine just with water, food, air, sunlight and some nature to visit once in a while.

How to spot the shills:

JIDF and/or euphorics go back to plebbit.

Not years

Next up, an article in some jewish/liberal outlet that goes:
Ten shocking vices you didn't know white supremacists are all about.

I hope you and you're family die of cancer.

Having had both a real NDE, and an ibogaine trip, I can relate the two.

I had an NDE around 14. It involved being held down and raped by a homosexual man. Not pleasant stuff. I fought back, and hit my head. The NDE was quite the opposite of the situation I was in. For many years, I wanted to replicate the experience of dying, but without the suicide.

I decided that ibogaine would be my venue. I took a heroic dose. I very nearly did not recover from the experience. My wife spotted me, and I could tell she was quite worried.

I saw heaven, or at least my conception of it, ut with a difference from an actual NDE: it was not nearly so real. A bonafide NDE is more real than real, but ibogaine is a dream, though a very psychic one.

Did taking ibogaine cause me to change my behaviors? Not in the long-term, no. It's not a magic bullet, but merely a tool to help those seeking to change. The self-discipline required to live ultimately always comes from the self.

If I could trade all the time I've spent playing WoW, browsing 4chan and fapping to porn for practice in a useful or creative skill and real-life experience with other people, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Porn, 4chan and an addictive game like WoW are such wastes of life. Do something with yourself, do that thing you really want to do, have experiences with other people.
You'll hate yourself down the road if you don't.

if I could swap this time I would as well.

The only times I'be been able to break of the internet habit have been when I planned things to do during the day in advance. Holla Forums is a filler activity for me and unfortunately I don't have many close friends to get me out of the house so when I don't plan things for myself to accomplish it just naturally fills up all my time.

At least Holla Forums focuses more on building up virtue than building up vice, so it's less bad than some other sites I could be hanging out on.

My thing is drinking. And porn. The two go together. Usually I can avoid porn, but the booze call to me on the weekend. And then the porn follows.

I tell myself I wont fap but it happens anyway.

How can I not drink? It's that feeling of wanting to just relax and chill, maybe watch a movie.

Maybe when I get my new 2016 imac (when they fucking release it!) I can use it to play some dayz or planetside2. That will provide some relaxation & entertainment.

Pride might be one vice you hate tho.

you're the LED guy right ?

It's not to late user. I'm fucking 26 and in college for Electrical Engineering right now. Everybody is younger than me but it doesn't matter because I don't do social stuff anyways. I even managed to land a good summer internship at a tech company this year after going to my college career fair. I think the fact that I was so much older than the other people applying gave me an advantage, since I have the leg up in maturity and life experience.

...

I don't care much for the rest of the thread, but I've been meaning to comment on Bezmenov's remarks about meditation.

There was a huge influx of idiots and liars from India starting in the 50's. More than enough famous so-called guru's turned out frauds with no connection to actual teachings; just criminals or conmen, running the game and creating a following for their own benefit.
Yuri mentioned them sponsoring the happy go lucky Alan Watts tier be at piece Zen, I think. The navel gazing and pointless sitting and thinking about nothing. This is indeed useless to some extent and completely not the point of the spiritual teachings.

The closest analogue to these teaching is learning to empty your mind - to not let stray thoughts bother you and so you have a greater control over your thinking and imagination (there are no flashes of images, no spurts of feelings, no sounds, no pornographic image flashes (try meditating after masturbating and find out it's suddenly hard to not think of porn)). The point is - the no-thinking is the first step so you get control back. And unruly mind leads to trouble.

However the next steps would be to train your imaginary senses (seeing objects in your minds eye, hearing, touching etc.). With this you would strengthen your mind and what it is capable of doing. The more mundane reason for this is that you now have a powerful problem solver at your disposal:
Need to build a cabinet. Just close your eyes and imagine how it should look like what it should do. Making an algorithm for programming - same. This leads to stronger memory (stronger images = easier to recall), faster thinking and improved intuition, easier dream recall and more synchronicities after a while.

Of course, that's on a mundane level, the whole point is that this shit isn't mundane. Further reading Franz Bardon's ''Initiation Into Hermetics '

I don't think hating the gym is a vice. As long as you continue to go, you are doing a good thing.

Thanks, that's how I've always thought of it that way as well. I live in the heart of Commiefornia and the people here are so self-righteous it makes me want to puke. I don't see any point in having more than limited contact with the people here.

My major vices:

When I was still in school, I had a Jewish friend who was a functioning alcoholic. We used to drink to blow off steam, but after I started having issues with depression it turned into binge drinking by myself once every 1-2 weeks.

I don't think my porn addiction is as bad as other peoples'. I only look at still images and I almost never fap more than once per day. I want to get to the point where I only fap once per week.

I waste a lot of time on Holla Forums and on youtube watching political videos. I've wasted a lot of time playing grand strategy games because they take so long to finish.

Virtues:

Improving my diet has helped me to feel shitty less regularly. I've also stopped gaining weight, which was happening due to a combination of eating poorly and heavy drinking. I still feel like I have a long way to go. I need to do more research on nutrition

I've been going to the gym regularly (3-5 days per week) For a year now. My body has changed noticeably, although I know that I need to do more cardio and cut down on drinking more if I want to lose my beer gut.

I definitely have a lot of problems, but I feel like I've made progress towards fixing some of them during the past year.

If it helps you sort things out a bit, I am also a weedfag, with a wife, two kids, two cars, long-term job, etc, etc, etc. I prefer weed to alcohol just because I'm less of an asshole on weed. Drink makes me say exactly what I think of people.

It's not the weed holding you back from success, that's just your excuse. It is entirely possible to be an outwardly normalfag weed smoker.

Finally, stop burning your weed, use a vape. Your lungs will thank you.

Druggies always talk like this. Maybe it's the lack of shame carried over from their using days.

Huh. I also go to the gym with two other people.

Stop smoking weed right now. Just stop. I was a chronic stoner (smoking 2-12 times a day, 1-4 bowls each time) for 4 years and it really fucked me up. I've since grabbed my life by the horns and haven't smoked weed in 2 months. It feels great. You forget what it's like to be sober when being stoned is your equilibrium. Tough it out, it's beyond worth it. No excuses

Go to the gym user. 3-5 times a week for an hour BARE MINIMUM. No excuses. You will notice tangible benefits to how you feel within 3 weeks and by then you'll want to go every day, even on rest days

The fact that we find ourselves - and each other - here is a godsend. The fact that we have to stare for hours into blue-glowing boxes to reap those benefits is a technical problem that somebody is going to solve sooner or later (perhaps using the dark web, desentralization, cheap e-ink devices, mesh nets, etc.).

What troubles me the most though is having literal satanic mind control slipstreamed into everything we do online 24/7. The visual noise of the modern internet is an overwealming distraction. Even if you're dispensing red pills, it's still feeding the diabolic / Edward Bernaysian machine if there is no viable exit (and going full luddite isnt an option…)

I'm beginning to think the Muzzies are on to something with banning graven images or whatever. Seems like they only do really cool caligraphy.

Would meme magic still work if it only consisted of alphanumeric text, random glyphs, and audio delivered via a non-backlit black and white e-ink display? I'm asking for a friend.

What if we started a mongolian basket weaving message board that was limited to line art drawings?

Rejecting buddhist meditation doesn't mean you need to be a materialist. For example, christian meditation involves reading, studying, and actively thinking about God's word instead of turning your brain off and becoming an ego-dead non-entity like in buddhist meditation.

Seriously though, what do you guys get out of buiddhist meditation? Every time I've earnestly tried it, I walk away feeling like I'm more relaxed, but ultimately wasted my time. Whereas with christian meditation I walk away relaxed and with actionable ways I can improve my life and live closer to the way God intends.

Social disapproval and shaming is great, but I think we're at the point where we can't afford to let our anger simmer much longer and should take decisive action

I take the tower of babel story to teach the opposite of racemixing, though the church is cucked to hell

Eh I've done a fair bit of improvement since the beginning of this year, I've quit smoking, got a job, moved out, worked out my career and life goals, quit porn and quit masturbating (haven't jerked off for 3 months so far). Still my main problem is that I'm still to shy with girls (still a virgin with no gf) and I still spend too much time playing vidya and shitposting.

Same here. I love beautiful women a bit too much. But, I truly believe that everyone has to try every day to improve himself in some way. It doesn't matter what situation you are in. Find a way to make yourself a little bit better of a person each day. Go to sleep tomorrow knowing that you really did something that improved you. Then go to sleep, wake up and do it again…

...

...

Adding to this, a major problem is that I'm way too much of a pussy and scared of conflict or standing up for myself. Any way to fix this?

whats the difference between a tiddie and a description of a tiddie?

...

Buddhist meditation is about observing your thoughts and training yourself to not have useless ones clouding your mind. I don't know why you would compare it to Christian programming.

Christ almighty, I experience exactly this. I've learned so much through browsing daily, but now I know that the time for intense learning is over, and that I need to start acting. It's very difficult to switch gears like that, and my daily browsing is locking me in place.

Wim Hof ,has anyone tried his method?

Keep it up pal, find other like you, if you begin to hang around degenerates, you will become like you. Also, people like you need to have a lot of children.

Practice extraordinary self-discipline, go back to following what ever it is that consists of 'old fashion manhood'. These days, I'm really looking up to Wang Jianlin.

Reading about him, it seems like he practises extraordinary self-discipline. You have to think about the greater gains to be had from getting rid of those erratic impulses.

Forgot description
The Wim Hof Method is similar to Tummo (inner heat) Meditation and Pranayama (yogic breathing). Yet it is something else entirely. While Wim has read a lot of books on yoga and meditation for many years, this technique primordially comes from what he terms ‘cold hard nature’. By subjecting himself to the bitter conditions of nature, he learned to withstand the extreme forces of cold, heat and fear. If you learn this method or technique correctly, it will empower you to do to the same.

I'll play.
I was a fat alcoholic for many years.
I finally found Holla Forums, realized I was shaming myself & my ancestors, and quit drinking altogether (except for a drink or two at rare get togethers).
I weighed over 400 lbs at my worst (but I was also a weight lifter, so much of it didn't seem obvious). I've lost over 100 lbs so far, with around 50 to 75 to go.
I'm learning German on Duolingo, and have made headway into politics (town council).

I'm not sure where I'll go from here, but thank you Holla Forums for convincing me I had to take control of my life. I feel a great deal of hope for the future.
