Y'all I've been too embarrassed to tell my therapist but the way I pulled myself out of a deep depression a few months ago was because I started masturbating regularly, which I had never done before. It's not working very well anymore but now when I talk to them it's like "oh well what were you doing differently last time you felt better?" Idk man, it's a mystery.

[-] hswolf@lemmy.world 24 points 4 months ago

no psychologist here, but wouldn't the "doing nothing different" be the cause?

maybe try a few toys, there's so many types these days, putting stuff up in the ass is also a good choice, lots of pleasure points there for both sexes

maybe you could find some relieve exploring your own body? that worked somewhat for me, maybe I've become a pervert or a degenerate, but I feel very good about myself and with myself

[-] RadicalEagle@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

Also just talking about your kinks and other things you're ashamed of with people you trust is really helpful in clearing that. Shame will hold you back from being true to yourself, and it's not worth it.

[-] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Exploring my body unfortunately causes quite a bit of dysphoria for me which is why I rarely used to do it in the first place, but maybe I'll work with them on that issue first and then I can try exploring haha.

You're not a pervert, it's great you can feel comfortable and enjoy yourself (as long as you're not doing it in front of non-consenting parties...)

For the record I love this comment, but find it funny that the answer to depression is just “try putting stuff up your butt”.

[-] Clent@lemmy.world 18 points 4 months ago

If you can't talk to your therapist about this l, they may not be the right therapist for you.

It served as a source of novel pleasure, now it's just pleasure. Something else that's new and exciting could be what you're looking for, just make sure it doesn't turn to excessive drug use or something else thats irresponsible

C. Just trying to keep the inventory fresh in order to not get cancer

But you do that every 45 minutes

[-] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 28 points 4 months ago

The cancer can sneak up on you at any moment. Can't let your guard down

I've literally had partners envious of my turn around time.

Neither. I need that bastard to stop trying to prop a tent after any minor provocation.

[-] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 32 points 4 months ago

are u ~~masturbating~~ sleeping because you're ~~horny~~ sleepy or because you're depressed and need the dopamine

[-] fossphi@lemm.ee 20 points 4 months ago

Can't be depressed while you're asleep. My coping mechanism numero uno

I can't do either for two more months because of lower surgery

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 4 months ago

I feel you friend

When I got a hernia a couple years ago I couldn't for 3 months due to pain before the surgery‡ and then 2 months after the surgery (doc said 2 weeks but there was still too much pain in the area)

That was hard

‡ Had to wait 3 months because my insurance was insisting it was an "optional" surgery because it didn't have my guts pinched so they were not wanting to cover it. My doc was insistent that it wasn't optional due to the level of pain I was in. In the end the doc won and it was covered.

[-] CaptainEffort@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 months ago

I'm in this meme and I don't like it.

[-] RadicalEagle@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

I used to be in this meme, now I read it and feel a certain sense of relief that I'm becoming a little bit more like the person I want to be.

If you want to talk about anything you've got people here who want to listen to you.

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 4 points 4 months ago

I'm having post nut clarity. For the next 20 minutes everything is alright.
