Usually I’ll go a week or a couple days with jerking off and I feel great. Can look People in the eye, confident and my eyes look better. But then I jerk off and I feel like a bitch. Any one else feel like this?

it's because every time you climax, your body downregulates dopamine receptors, making you feel less pleasure and motivation from what you would usually enjoy. combined with if you feel shamed afterwards because of the content you watched (usually leading to anxiety/neuroticism), and the nutrients and minerals getting released from your body leads to you feeling like a bitch.

but usually, like you said, it goes away in a weekish so dont worry about it too much.
just stay away from porn and shit and you should be good

This is heavily and I mean heavily over exaggerated

This is propaganda from the cold shower bro's, its all phycological, it only effects you if you think it effects you.

Dont scroll for more than 5 min to find vid (prolonged novelty can become negative)
Basically when you find a good vid but you feel like you can find a even better one

Ideally you shouldn't even need a vid and use your mind
There is no dopamine down regulation when this happens

bro jus saying things with no source

thats what i meant by just stay away from porn and shit

the main problem is just the prolonged novelty & supernatural stimulus, the effects of them have been documented and shown several times so idfk what you mean by no sources

but anyways apart from that i do agree with you overall tho
its alright as long as you aren't totally gooning and just jacking it using imagination/sensation when you feel like it

or even better actually go out and fuck irl but i guess thats why we're all here in the first place
