    hello,

    I have a question.

    I'm on day 5 of nofap. As I understand it the problem has everything to do with dopamine.

    Would it be necessary to work on my YouTube addiction also for healing my brain?
    I binge watch YouTube for hours every day. Just like porn this will give my brain a dopamine shot for every video I click.

    So I quit watching porn, but my brain still cannot heal, because I do the EXACTLY same thing with YouTube (off course not M to it), but it still overloads the brain with dopamine shot after shot with every video I watch.

    What do you guys think about this?

    I watch Youtube videos like those to keep my mind off of “P” so it helps me not “M”. I also listen to music when I work online and thats it.

    After watching these videos you probably just want to hit the gym right?
