    Is there a connection between seriousness and "addiction"? Lets consider the following quote:

    "Seriousness happens because you take yourself very seriously. When you are joyful, you are not an issue in your life. When you are in pursuit of happiness, it means you are an issue - you are trying to find a solution for yourself."

    Well, with that out of the way, time for some more advice. Are you unsure about how to skilfully make love to a woman? Let Swiss Toni put your mind at ease:

    "Humans are often surfeited with their own egos, with its pride, fear, lust, laziness, resentments, and all kinds of internal strife. Consciously or unconsciously we are seeking, somewhere in the depths of our mind, a release from such burdens. When such relief is encountered in a laugh or a smile, we let out a sigh of relief and feel at ease."

    Terry Jones and Eric Idle give us a demonstration of the superpower of curiosity:

    "Only when you are in pleasant states of experience does your body and brain work best. The moment you become DEAD serious, your brain is frozen, your body is tense; they cannot work freely to their full potential."

    One who has lost his laughter has lost everything.”

    If you could never laugh again, would you still want to live out the rest of your life?

    By the way, "Elf in The Lord of the Rings Challenge," J.R.R Tolkien kept his sense of humor despite being present at the Battle of the Somme.

    In which case do you feel better:
    1) after having laughed out loud? Or...
    2) after having pmo'd?

    Now, here is a self-control issue:

    If you feel so good after pmo then why be on Nofap?

    "If you have lost your laughter (for more than a short while), there is only one reason. You are at the peak of ignorance. You have lost sense of life."

    Do you like animals? Might they take your awareness away from the two dimensional world for more than an hour? How about starting an owl hospice?

    There are plenty of things that can make you happy that are bad

    “Bad” things do not bring real happiness, just its shadow. If you enjoy pmo then why be on Nofap?

    Because it does not contribute to the life I want to have , It still doesn't change that PMOing makes u happy in some sense. I am not saying that it is good for anyone just that it can make u happy.

    That “happiness” from pmo is an illusion. Can you see that? What I’m trying to say to you is “real” happiness is bliss. “Fake” happiness is euphoria.
    Bliss is a state of joy that is long-lasting and is not dependent on external factors.
    Euphoria is a state of intense excitement that is short-lived and is dependent on external factors.
