Personally masturbation helps with stress. I've tried not masturbating for a week before, and it wasn't that great. Didn't really feel any changes, however that's just a week. Not sure I wanna go without it for longer.

e: but then again, i'm 15, so hormones or stuff like that might control that kinda stuff.

nofap and all that is a fucking joke, and the people doing it, especially the ones participating in the nofap subreddit are clowns; it's all placebo
only good thing about it is the avoiding porn, since porn addiction is a problem for some people, probably for not most

Increase in testosterone since you aren't releasing all the time is probably why all of the above changes happen. When you pop steroids, the testosterone in them makes you more irritable and brash, while making you more confident and in control of yourself. That is what testosterone does and I am sure the deeper voice thing is just a side effect if it actually happens.

Then again, I haven't looked into research on whether masturbating stops or stunts the production of testosterone if you do it too much hence take what I say with a grain of salt. The testosterone facts, however, are proven by science and real life.

I mean, this seems entirely possible to do. I know that I can at least go a 3-5 days without masturbating, because i simply put it out of my mind. Now I don't know if i could do it for such a long time however. I never really tested that theory. I mean I am able to step away from it and put it out of my mind, but if I happen to be thinking about it during the day, I normally end up doing it that day.

Think of it as though you were addicted to heroin. PMO (Porn, Masturbation and Orgasm) is essentially like overdosing on heroin.

either you don't know what a smack OD is like or you have some top notch wanks

I don't think its particularly healthy not to fap when your a hormone filled teenager.

For those 20 and above, they could probably try it, but anything below that and its actually natural to fap several times considering how much angst and testosterone your body is producing during your growth cycle.

If you don't have the urge to fap (boner when looking at a hot girl) during your growing cycle [teenager years], you are either gay, or asexual.

You only say that because of current social expectations and standards though, what you must remember is that 30 years ago porn was way harder to access than it is now, we literally live in a culture, particularly in the west, which absolutely adores porn. Sure, in the past, people will have still been into it, but there wasn't the same medium we have like today, if you wanted porn, you'd have to be well-off or able to afford a prostitute, and even then, like aforementioned: porn is a lot worse in terms of the amount of dopamine released compared to actual sex.

You should have the urge to have sex with a hot girl, sure, but not to fap. A quick anecdote which I read somewhere, I can't remember exactly, stated that during the French Revolution, soldiers used to masturbate in order to reduce battle stress, and in order to keep calm. Some soldiers which masturbated too much, became known as 'masturbation mad' or words to that effect, and they'd actually be kicked out (or more likely killed) of the French Army.

http://alphahistory.com/pastpeculiar/1842-masturbation-kills-alfred-hitchcock/ (I found a link which discusses a similar thing, it was quite a common topic during the French Revolution, for whatever reason.)

Think is, porn, and any of its products, were seen as immoral to the point of illegal in the eyes of society. On top of that, fapping was actually against religion as you are considered to have sinned if, instead of sticking your dick in a pussy, you fapped your sperm away in the quiet of your own home.

If you think I am joking about that, try googling a bit about it, and you'd see it was a huge thing back then where masturbation was a sin and against god.

Porn itself was almost impossible to get because mass producing it was extremely difficult hence it was easy to ban it and/or shun those who view it. Production and viewing of porn required printing presses / hand drawn instead of the digital media we have here where any cam whore with a camcorder can get herself online in as easy as five minutes.

Precisely, thus why people question the morals of pornography, and the effects it has on health. It's still new.

They say the same with the Internet and how we are being hardwired to be like goldfish due to our limited attention spans.

Its just that technology is moving too fast for us to observe from experience and studies whether said technology is good or not. By the time we are done studying its positive and negative effects, a new and "improved" technology has come out.

You say that, but even once a day was enough for me to get ED when it came to having sex, not to mention taking like 2 hours to nut.

A) You have a problem and should check in with a doctor as that is not healthy.

B) You might be older than a normal teenager hence your hormones have calmed down.

C) You have some other condition that causes less testosterone / hormones.
