I hate myself for always thinking about sex

I know man, it’s tough… last night I was having strong urges and took a small sip of NyQuil to help slightly change my mindset

a problem I’ve had most of my life is that girls who want to date me, I am not interested in

 

Yea I’ve noticed just taking a small, small amount, like 5mL, is just enough to slightly change my thought patterns just enough to fall asleep easier

I am also considering getting ZZZquil for the same reason

however, I only take a small sip of NyQuil very rarely, like once every few weeks. So it’s not like a regular thing just in case of an emergency

 

Different point of views, I would pay to have such condition.
A life without any kind of libido, where you're totally flat (up and down) if a hot girl is close to you, makes you think you're totally useless, with your "manhood" below zero.

 

I'm definitely Team NyQuil (or ZQuil) as well. I've always struggled with sleep and have noticed the patterns in my intrusive thought process...obviously higher at night when wife and kids are asleep. I switch on and off Melatonin as well.

 

Do you notice a big difference between Zzquil and NyQuil like in the effects?

I’ve never tried ZZquil or melatonin before, only NyQuil. And NyQuil because I would have some left over from having had a cold, and saw that it helped with the intrusive thoughts

what are ZZquil and melatonin like?

 

Try this before going to bed at night:

1) Cold shower followed by warm shower/bath.
2) 3-4 rounds of Wim Hof breathing (or something similar).
3) Whilst lying flat on your back in bed, legs out straight, squeeze your legs together (from hips to feet, not too strongly) and hold for 10 seconds increasing the length of time gradually each night. (Don't attempt if you have a bad back).

To add even more potency, place your feet on the grass for 10-15 mins a day. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

 

Thanks for the suggestions.

1. I have a hot tub and soak two times daily.

2. Former military and love all the breathing variations.

3. Just had my second back surgery this year. Lol. Also, live in a very cold environment so lots of snow...no laying in the grass...for now.

I've been a light sleeper for my entire 40+ years on this earth. I'm fully accepting of it. In addition to the things you mentioned, ZQuil, Melatonin, and ZMA also help. Thanks for sharing. Wishing you the best!

 

Zzzquil only has one main ingredient for helping those who cannot sleep, whereas NyQuil has additional ingredients to help with flu and cold. Melatonin is a hormone produced in our bodies that help regulate the body's circadian rhythm. It also acts as an antioxidant as has other health benefits.

The reason I cycle on and off of melatonin is because I build up a tolerance.

 

I guess I just meant, how does each of them make you feel? Is there a big difference in how NyQuil vs ZZquil vs melatonin makes you feel after you take them?

 

Ah okay, apologies.

NyQuil vs ZZZquil provide a similar reaction but I only take NyQuil when I'm also sick since it has added ingredients for flu and cold. As for the melatonin, it hits me slightly lighter the the NyQuil/ZZZQuil meds but offers the same deepness in my sleep.

I much prefer the melatonin because it's something found within our bodies and has numerous other health benefits. The only issue I have with it is building up a tolerance to the point it has limited effectiveness. Therefore, I cycle on and off of it.

Hope that explanation is a little better. My apologies again for misunderstanding.

Wishing you the best!

 

I second cold showers and Wim Hof. I have been following WimHof since 2016. I always feel better

Please stay away from NiQuil and other sleeping aids. It's addictive trash. I have been addicted to NiQuil before and it's awful.

Discipline is king. Discipline is the horse I ride. Try and start getting up an hour earlier and you will start going to bed earlier. It's the only way I know how.

Sexual thought and fantasy is the drug for us. Relapses start between my ears with sexual thoughts, fantasy or euphoric recall. You can overcome these with God's help through prayer and meditation. If nothing else works, consider joining a 12 step group.

I have been free from PMO for 158 days in a row by the grace of God.

Wishing you joyful recovery.

 

Thanks and no problem! Haha

wishing you the best as well! see you around on here

 

No problem man! Good luck to you.

We are all different and have different needs. Figure out what works best for YOU and roll with it!
