➜So the thousands of people who have shared almost the same experiences stemming from porn consumption and masturbation had underlying issues?
➜ The argument that one seeks masturbation out of curiosity or stress isn't always true. The feeling that comes with these acts release hormones from the brain that have a strong potential to cause addiction.
➜ From the very first time a person watches porn and/or masturbates, he wants to do it again. Some people pay attention to those desires, while for some, they get so involved with other things that they forget they ever had such desire in the first place. Unluckily for those who yield to those desires the second, third, or fourth time, it starts to get difficult from that point. By that time, there's already an alteration in their brain chemistry. This is when it begins to affect a person mentally and emotionally.
➜ So doing it in the first place risks addiction, just like drugs and other addictive acts or substances. Stop advocating for something that destroys lives. You're being devilish.

1. YES! 🤔

2. Those same hormones are released every time we do pleasurable or fun activities, or do something worthwhile. There are no special hormones released in the brain when one masturbates. It is the same reward center in the brain and the same set of hormones.

3. The answer you seek is hidden in the difference between the two groups.

4. No! You don't risk addiction the first time you eat, do you? No, however, choosing food as your go-to solution for stress and trauma increases your risk of getting addicted. There is nothing devilish about it.

I just dey laugh.u think Since they have been threatening Iran on GB-53 bunker buster bomb strike in that fordow, u think they will leave every important asset they had labored for there abi. According to Reuters news, enriched uranium already have been moved to an unknown location before the strike.

Who, in their right mind, would bomb a facility that had enriched uranium stockpiles, though?

➜Thank you for engaging. It’s understandable to have questions in a world where not every miracle is believed, and skepticism is common. However, this testimony was shared directly by the woman and her community, and it's available in full on Epifia.com — including video evidence and community witnesses.
➜ Faith doesn't cancel wisdom, but it also invites us to believe that God can do what no man or science can explain. This story isn’t asking you to ignore facts — just to consider that some things go beyond natural limits. You're free to explore, question, and even verify. But let’s not be quick to dismiss what may be a genuine move of God.
➜ Miracles still happen — and many are still happening off-camera.

1. I don't believe the accounts of community witnesses who probably saw her wearing a pregnancy pouch until the supposed delivery of the baby. I would rather go through official sources— the hospital and maybe the delivery staff— to confirm that an actual baby was born from this woman's uterus at the time she claimed.

2. Faith is also the excuse used by numerous women in Nigeria today who undergo what is cryptic pregnancies only to then be handed a kidnapped baby at the end as their reward. This una Christian god don do so much damage to the lives and psyche of so many millions in that country that it can be said that he has his hands in literally every vile wickedness perpetrated at this point in time.

3. It's very convenient that the many miracles of your Christian god cannot be captured on-camera; however, the resultant damage can. I guess he works in the darkness is what it is.

➜Keep betting, you'd lose all your money. He said he suddenly started stroking his penis and then climaxed. He felt good, and wanted to do it again. Kindly explain why he wanted to do it again after climaxing.

Nothing wrong with climaxing, feeling good, and then desiring that feeling again. The brain's reward system is there to reward us for actions and there is nothing wrong with that at all. It is when one(not the act itself) enters into a cycle of addiction — the act itself can be anything from eating, drinking, masturbating, exercising, smoking, etc.,— ... due mostly to other issues in the life of the one, that it becomes a problem.

DestinedForGrea:
➜Bros, masturbation is a huge part of his problem. I've been a victim, and I can tell you for a fact that I've experienced literally everything that the OP shared. Go all over the internet and see a lot of people share the exact same experiences. At the end of the year, VDM who appears so bold in front of a camera shared his experience of how masturbation almost ruined his life. All these can't be coincidences. The most common adverse effects are anxiety, low self esteem, inability to focus on a task for so long. Ultimately, these traits lead to lack of productivity, declining relationships with people, rejection, etc. People start to perceive you as weird, and then they don't want to get in touch with you. It's worse when you're not that naturally good looking. It's tough for someone going through these things to have a drive.
➜The thing is there's something masturbation and pornography does to the brain
➜ that I think science has no conclusive explanation for at the moment.
➜ Basically, it alters the brain's chemistry and causes a lot of changes (retrogressive changes) in the person's mental and emotional states.

These(in bold) are not results of effects of masturbation but rather of underlying psychological issues that you may have been dealing with around the same time you were masturbating.

2. Masturbation and porn are pleasures one seeks out out of curiosity or even for stress relief. The problem begins when these pleasures become the go-to solution for when one is under psychological stress or has experienced trauma.

3. Science does have an explanation; you merely seem to reject it, still is what.

4. Moderate masturbation does not alter your brain. Rather, it is excessive masturbation— addiction being the major problem here— that leads to the alteration of one's brain. Much the same way that any other addiction — drugs, alcohol, gambling, food, etc.— would.

➜Masturbation in its core is addictive. That's the very reason it should be avoided.

That is a lie, and I bet you know you already know it, but you won't admit it.

stormborn28:
➜Addiction started from small. Let me do it once become two three .... Iet it just be two minutes become three four minutes, one week two weeks

. That is not how addiction works since it ain't a moral failing as many would like to pretend. There is always a root cause — brain changes, genetics, environmental factors, mental health conditions, personality traits, etc. — in the background to fuel addictions.

➜Exactly was married previously I noticed my ex hubby was masturbating wen I called d elder sis attention to it d reason d idiot gave was dat he doesn't want to cheat dats why he mastibates I just weak.....I have left him to continue his mastibation in peace

What has nutri milk to do with this?

stormborn28:
➜Everything is wrong with masturbation. I know a young girl that masturbate. She does it right in my presence but codedly. I take her lesson. It's affecting her academically. I have observed she is strongly addicted to it

She is an addict. Like the OP, her problem isn't masturbation but the psychological issues/trauma/stresses that she attempts to relieve by way of masturbation, leading to a cycle of addiction. The underlying issue remains unresolved, which is the particular reason for the addictive behavior.

You can advise her to seek our professional mental health treatment for her issues.

DaCharis2016:
Go to church today Sunday and be born again. You will be glad u did. I mean a strong believing praying one.

Nonsense! 🙄🙄🙄

Tzar:
Excessive masturbation is usually as a result of underlying psychological or stress issues. Treat that 1st otherwise, you will just be treating symptoms and not the disease. If you think having a healthy sexual drive is a problem, try erectile dysfunction or impotence. Just do everything in moderation and you are a normal human being. Sort out the hidden issues before tackling the masturbation.

Someone please get OP to realize this so he seeks professional mental health therapy immediately, abeg!

AntiChristian:
➜Masturbation done for example with your spouse is not forbidden. This involves two consenting people. It's different from the one done locked up in the room not wanting anyone to see you!

Who forbade masturbation, abeg?

Hahjascho:
➜Okay o.😀 Be looking for evidence.

Evidence is always required in every case, otherwise your claims are no different from brain farts.

opalu:
Do 3 days dry fasting and it will go. This kind only goes by prayer and fasting

Hahjascho:
✓ While it doesn’t directly cause unemployment…it can kill your will power.
Most especially for men, it’s hard to be purpose-driven if one is an addict.

Wrong! Masturbation does not kill will power. There is no evidence of this.

Kingray10:
Go get a girlfriend that can be leaving with you. Have sex in place of masturbation.
Besides you are the one wrecking your life. Masturbating is messing with head also.

If you were a girl, would you volunteer yourself for this mission you wish to send another person's daughter into? Some of you are not sane humans at all..

22jumpstreet:
✓ Hahahahahaa @ number 3, very laughable.
When? You are just very funny to say the least. The covenant at is the Hallmark of Judaism. What God asked them to keep. The new covenant will be the same laws written in their heart, and not on stone or paper...
1. I still hold it that Christianity and the new testament are all creation of the Greek. They have the idea of god mating with women, not the Jews. That idea is absent in Jewish theology.
2. That is how the Greeks got the Torah, by forcing the Jewish scholars to translate the Torah to Greek (the Septuagint). With that in hand, they created the new religion of Christianity by mistranslating and misunderstanding the Torah......aim to deceive.

1. The God of Israel is famously known for distancing Himself from the religion of Judaism and it's many self installed shepherds -- gods of men -- formerly grouped under the sects of the Pharisees, Sadducees along with the judges of the Sanhedrin. So, again, the religion you keep harping has nothing to do with this topic since the subject also disavowed it.

2. Nonsense 🙄🙄🙄

The Grecian empire had been toppled for a period of about 200 years before the wheels began moving on what you now know as the religion of Christianity. Stop with the unintelligent ramblings for attention sake.

22jumpstreet:
✓ You are still not understanding my points do you? If you do, explain it to me before you counter it.. I will wait.

Historical facts make us aware that you are not interested in making points but spewing brain farts .I.e, meaningless drivels.

✓ Good morning everyone, how are we all doing this morning?...
I'll just go straight to the point...
I used to be a lover of God few years ago, I still do love God till this very moment... But not the way I used to love him...
Things I hardly do before I easily do them these days, though I do feel bad afterwards, but I'll still go back to those same things within few days...
I want to be completely free and return back to the way that I used to be...So what are the practical steps to follow?.
Thanks and God bless

Your obvious problem is a total lack of self discipline and what you need is to begin now cultivating those habits which you wish to have. It will happen over night as it takes times to build the mental muscles necessary to help you achieve your self discipline goals. So, start by making clear your goals. Then behind taken moment by moment steps towards those goes and consistently staying in line. Sooner or later, you will reach them if you don't refuse all urged to give up midway.

22jumpstreet:
➜So how did you his disprove my points?
➜ The gospel was written by Greeks for the religion of Christianity.
➜ The Jewish official religion is Judaism. They believe in one God...creator, responsibile for both good and evil.

1. You were merely rambling, not making any point.

2. The nation of Judea that existed during the first century was a former colony of the Greek Empire. It is similar to how Nigeria of today exists as a former English colony, and the English language remains the major Language even at that.

3. According to the story, Judaism, designed after the way of foreign religions, was rejected by the God of Israel. So, why this distraction?

22jumpstreet:
➜The four gospels were written by Greeks. The longer ending to mark was also written by them. They have been editing and re editing since the beginning of the religion. They have been holding councils and synold to discuss the direction of the religion. They only stop editing after the council of Trent in about 1553 or so.... The gospels are properties of the Roman Catholic Church, has nothing to do with the Jews or Israelites.....

Stop with the meaningless rambling! 🙄🙄

Following Alexander the Great's conquest of the Persian Empire, which included Judea, the region came under Greek rule. Initially, Judea was part of the Ptolemaic kingdom of Egypt, but control shifted to the Seleucid Empire (Syrian-Greek) in 198 BCE. This period, known as the Hellenistic period, saw the spread of Greek culture and influence, which led to tensions and ultimately, the Maccabean Revolt that resulted in Jewish independence.

Stop spitting brain farts and try to begin making sense!

➜And people are telling you why

Retaliation is your why for abandoning your children? The children are no better than fodder in the feud between you and their mother. OK! Case closed then!

maasoap:
➜You are losing your shit. You do know that you are really annoying but we still manage to engage you as maturely as possible?

Maturity is shifting blame while not boldly admitting to abandonment all?

maasoap:
➜How would you know if they're malnourished?
➜If you behave like they're not mine, may be they are not mine
➜Adult who is using kids to take revenge on their dad, lol. The man is better wise up

1. It is better that you don't send money at all because you are not aware if they are malnourished or not ?

2. Without so much as due diligence on your end, your resolve is to conclude that the children aren't yours, abandon them, and move on?

3. Is the man who abandoned his children in retaliation for the actions of his children's mother wise?

maasoap:
➜You decide to have custody since by law, you're the primary custodian.
➜ If I'm given the choice, I know I would love to be too. But since I can't, you shouldn't deny me the opportunity to see them regularly if they are mine and I'm doing right by them.

Stop rambling! 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Outside of the courts, while the mother may be the primary custodian, the father is meant to remain the secondary custodian — he is expected to at least provide support in that case. However, the courts have the power to give custody to the parent it decides is of best fit for the child. A man who wishes to gain custody could easily take his case before the courts. However, the vast majority of fathers don't even bother taking the issue to the courts and simply walk away, abandoning the children altogether to their mothers. So, how can you continue arguing that this isn't what it literally represents?

2. Nonsense! We are asking why you chose to abandon your children because of their mother. Why do your children have to suffer for the sake of your ego?

maasoap:
➜I'm not attacking you, I'm calling your attention to what everyone is is calling your attention to.

The topic is on why people resort to abandoning their children altogether after a divorce... not on what the adults do with or to each other. Using the squabble between the adults as an excuse not to admit to abandoning the children is silly, at best.

➜Marduk is the creator of the universe. He destroyed Tiamat and used her body to create the heavens and the earth. He is the lugal dimmer ankia amongst his 50 names which means divine king of heaven and earth. That sorted. It was Marduk that held King Cyrus of persia to free the people from the exile in Babylon. It was also him that ordered Nebuchadnezzar's to go bring the people to Babylon to learn about him. He also called Nebuchadnezzar's his servant. ...so you need to relearn.
Do you know who those people are now that are mentioned in that Genesis passages you mentioned? Go and do a research my friend and learn.

I am not interested in your brain farts, abeg! 🙄🙄🙄

Marduk was described as the god of Babylon in ancient Mesopotamian religion. And history has it that Persia toppled Babylonia and eventually sent the Jewish prisoners of Babylon back to their lands.

maasoap:
➜I disagree. You personalise the kids, you bear the burden alone

Personalize the kids? Why not simply admit that this is the same as abandonment, since it takes two to make those kids?

maasoap:
➜If you can't see the kids you're spending on, definitely your money is not being spent on your kids and that should call for concern on the man's part.
➜ If the mother hid the kids from heir dad despite doing his financial responsibility on the kids, may be they're not his kids.
➜ Because we need to talk about why the kids are being hidden from him.

1. Not being able to see them is proof that your money is not being used for their care? Oh, wow!

2. Oh! Yet more reasons why the children should be abandoned without concrete evidence... I see.

3. So, the support for the kids can wait until after the adults resolve their personal issues, abi? In the meantime, the children might as well starve or die.

➜1. The document was written and edited by Greeks and Romans for their religion called Christianity. The Jewish scripture ended at Malachi. After God took away the spirit of prophecy. The entire Christian scriptures (So called new testament) was written in koine Greeks for Greek speaking Christian in the Roman empire.
2. I said the Jews don't have the idea of a god mating with a woman. So the gospel stories CANNOT originate from them. Those stories are the Hallmark of Greek/ Roman mythology. Just like persius of clash of the titans.
➜Justin Martyr a famous church father in his work "the first apology" stated "And when we say also that the Word, who is the first-birth of God, was produced without sexual union, and that He, Jesus Christ, our Teacher, was crucified and died, and rose again, and ascended into heaven, we propound nothing different from what you believe regarding those whom you esteem sons of Jupiter. For you know how many sons your esteemed writers ascribed to Jupiter: Mercury, the interpreting word and teacher of all; Aesculapius, who, though he was a great physician, was struck by a thunderbolt, and so ascended to heaven; and Bacchus too, after he had been torn limb from limb; and Hercules, when he had committed himself to the flames to escape his toils; and the sons of Leda, and Dioscuri; and Perseus, son of Danae; and Bellerophon, who, though sprung from mortals, rose to heaven on the horse Pegasus.......
Nothing new, same old mythology

1. Huh? The nation of Judah was a captive nation of the Grecian empire for almost 200 years before it then fell into the hands of the Romans at the close of the BC period. Even the Septuagint, which Jesus Christ of Israel is said to have read from, was written in Greek. At least 2 generations of Jews were raised under the control of the Greek Empire, hence the great Greek influence noted in the writings in the books beginning with the Septuagint and then the Gospels. This all indicates that the Jews were not strangers to reading and writing the Greek language in the 1 century AD. So, how exactly do these claims of yours answer my previous question to you?

2. This gobbledegook does not answer my question.
