This is hell.

You should take those one at a time and quit tobacco last so that you can smoke when you feel like caving on the other two.

You're setting yourself up for failure, which will only discourage you from trying again.
>>
Give up just one at a time next time you try this if you fail this time.

But in the case of alcohol, it lowers inhibitions and makes you want to smoke, so if you quit smoking before you quit drinking you'll just end up smoking again.

Keep trying to quit all three at a time, but if that fails I recommend quitting drinking first, smoking second, fapping third.

Younger brother is psychologist, he tells me shit all the time.
To stop masrabating: download parental software that blocks porn sites and specific sites.

Youll never see porn again.

For cell phone lock away webbrowser. You dont really need it.

Alchoholism and smoking are two thigns that I havent had to over come but mastrabation was hard enough. Good fucking luck to you, God Speed, and never let them occupy your personality if you dont want them to.
>>
PS- personally i have the capabilities to come to 4chan but also have all NSWF baords blocked.

Once you eliminate all porn outlets, long story short, your on your own. Best to be creative as fuck in how you solve this. It took me 3 years of war in highschool to get where i am now. Havent jacked off in 6 years since i graduated. Im also still single and a virgin at that.

why would one quite masturbation? what sort of sick masochist are you

I want to stop this.

but i cant

I've been trying to give up alcohol and weed for years now. It's fucking impossible, imo. Whenever I'm sober I'm bored out of my goddamn mind. It's literally painful for me to be sober. No matter what I do to relieve it nothing comes close to the relief I get from drugs. Fucking nothing. I'm at the point now where I'm close to giving up and surrendering to my addictive nature. I will be an alcoholic and stoner for the remainder of my years and will deal with the consequences of that, professionally, socially, legally, and health wise. I don't give a fuck if I die in a gutter with nothing to my name as long as I die with a bottle of whiskey in my hand. It will be better than the soul crushing boredom and tedium of sobriety.

I am a hardcore alcoholic and have been forced to go on Antabuse by my parents (I still live at home with them.) They make damn sure I swallow the pill and they breathalyze me twice a day. Still, I've found a way around it- kind of. I take the pill with dinner so it mixes with my food and then throw up thirty minutes later. It gets most of the Antabuse out of my system. I drink late at night after they've gone to bed, but not too much or I'll get sick and it'll be picked up the next morning on the breathalyzer. But I can still drink enough to satisfy the craving and make life a little more tolerable for a few hours. My drinking time is the highlight of my day. I live for it.

I am well aware that this is truly fucked up, sick behavior and that I am only hurting myself but I don't give a fuck anymore.

I know how hard it is op and I admire you for having the balls to quit. I am not strong enough to do that. Good luck man and I hope you find happiness in the sober life.

i think i might have to quit weed

at first it was great, but now after 2 years daily use i just feel boring and empty. i'm even more autistic and cringeworthy, and have an even harder time talking to people

i was already introverted, but weed all the god damn time all hours of the day just made me lock up even further inside my own head

i also had a little DXM stint, in the first few months that i disovered it i dexd like 8 to 10 times. that probably fucked me up further

i know this for a fact because when i was stone sober for like 4 days, i was actually having good conversations with people at school instead of just sitting there and this shocked me

but
>tfw 2 weeks ago i bought some of the loudest shit i've ever tasted and i still have like 4gr left

it'll have to wait until i'm dry i guess..

>tfw still messed up and feel any day now i could go to bed and not wake up
i should probably go to the doctor
>>
>>25166183

8-10 dxm trips shouldn't be a cause for concern. I have tripped close to 100 times. That is cause for concern. My memory is fucked and so is my speech. I sound like a retard sometimes, really. Don't get to that point.

As for weed, I feel the exact same way. It used to be so much fun but I killed my enjoyment of it by staying stoned for the past three years. Now it hardly even makes music sound better, and that was one of the main things I loved about it.

I think you can only smoke weed daily and not get sick of it if your life is pretty great in the first place and you are a high achiever. Exhibt A and B: Willie Nelson and Snoop.

>>25166324
i've been sticking to a once a month rule for dexing, and it hasnt been hard at all. should i extend it even further to 2 months between?

when i did it like 3 times in a week i woke up and realized i could get hooked on this because its so fun and easy to get

is syrup really bad for you? is it worse than alcohol?
>>

>i also had a little DXM stint, in the first few months that i disovered it i dexd like 8 to 10 times.
i was drinking 8oz every friday/saturday night for almost 4 months before i physically couldn't stomach the shit anymore
there's probably lasting effects but i can't notice
>>
>>25166386
does your body feel fucked up? like your stomach/insides?
>>
>>25166415
no but im sure my serotonin production got fucked up, even worse than what it was considering i was diagnosed with major depression and lied to my doctor to get off SSRIs just so i could use dxm
>>
>>25166367
Drinking regular syrup all the time is absolutely awful for your digestive system

DXM itself might be neurotoxic, also if you mix it with some drugs you'll get serotonin syndrome, nevertheless if you do it several hundred times you'll have a great life as a retarded person to look forward to
>>
>>25166589
>also if you mix it with some drugs you'll get serotonin syndrome
yeah definitely dont mix dxm, dph, dmh and weed or you will have a bad time

trust me i know from experience

just dont fuck with over the counter drugs in general they're retarded
>>
>>25166640
>dont mix dxm and weed

nigger, you just went full retard

you cant have dxm without weed, its just so shitty

weed cancels out all the nausea and bad body feels and synergizes with the dxm headspace so well
>>
>>25166672
>>dont mix dxm and weed
that's not what i said
dxm and weed is fine, but i never actually cared for it, i loved the straight up dxm high

Hello fellow monk.

I am you - or what could be a version of you - six short months from now.

Do not listen to people in this thread telling you what you should or should not do. Do not listen to their words telling you that it is hard, or impossible, hopeless or doomed to fail.

Only you can decide if you will be successful in this path or not. And after you have decided to do it, it will become the easiest thing in the world to accomplish, because there will be no other way for you.

If I may make a suggestion, though, I would suggest that you search the reasons that you drink and masturbate and smoke in such a way that you want to quit them. Is there a void to fill in your life? There will certainly be an absence when you give these up, and it will be painful. Replace it with something positive like working out, boxing, art, language learning anything.

Six months is really all the time you need. If you truly want this, it will happen.
>>
>>25163632
Haha me too it's fucked man
I'm trying to replace these things with actually going out and trying to meet people and also having actual hobbies it been alright kind of
>>
this actually sounds pretty easy...
>whynotworkout instead
>>
I feel you anon. Masturbating is the thing I need to give up the most. I've been pretty consistently fapping for at least four hours a day since I was 13. In all the time I spent fapping I could have become less socially inept, leaned a language, or become an expert in something useful. The thing is, when I stop fapping I become more intense and aggressive.

Does anyone have advice for how to curb my aggressive urges/tendencies when I go no fap?
>>
>>25163632
I don't think there is a man living who can do all three at once.

Here's a better solution: give up one vice at a time and replace it with a 'virtue'.

>remove alcohol
>replace with healthy eating
then
>remove smoking
>replace with exercise
then
>remove masturbation
>replace with productive hobby/skill

Don't be a hero. You try to do all three at the same time (you don't even mention doing anything to replace those bad habits) and I guarantee you will relapse fucking hard.
>>
>>25167461
OP, pay attention and do this before you go on a week long alcohol, tobacco, and porn binge.

I got a better one.

>keep drinking, and eating good food too
>keep smoking, it feels especially good after strenuous activity, like fucking
>keep fapping, it's good to take a break once in a while from your hobbies so you come back energized and better able to see the bigger picture

Buddhism is shit. Christianity says to the pure all things are pure. Drinking, smoking, and fapping are virtues from where I'm sitting.

You only get one shot at this life. You should live it to the fullest. A life well lived is better than a life avoided as much as possible. Seek self actualization.

You should try using a vaporizer to quit smoking, it made it incredibly easy for me to quit.

I tried smoking a cig the other day and it tasted fucking HORRIBLE, and after that you won't even want to smoke them anymore.

God speed, anon.

I decided to cut down on drinking and quit chewing tobacco about 2 months ago. So far no tobacco is easy, and drinking once a week as opposed to 3-4 times has made me feel way healthier. I wouldn't be able to give up masturbating, as that habit is free and also feels the best.
>>
>>25168079

Vapes are shit, it's just nicotine, no maoi action, and none of the tobacco flavors taste like tobacco.

Roll your own or smoke a pipe. I'm going to start growing heirloom varieties of tobacco this spring. Vapes are pure shit and worthless for anything. If you want nicotine it's OK I guess, but as a tobacco replacement it doesn't even come close.

>Living life to the fullest --> drinking yourself to sleep while literally cancering up your lungs and spilling your cum every 10 minutes until you're so numb not even tranny porn is enough

Yeah, how about no

>>25163632
why masturbating that's actually healthy
>>
>>25168300
Are you suggesting tranny porn is the epitome of good porn?
>>
>>25168300

Ok, you got me there. Living life to the fullest according to what you think living life to the fullest is sounds pretty shitty.

You must have been the kid who had to be reminded multiple times not to touch the hot stove. Since you lack the insight to make basic judgment calls just go by what smarter people than you say to do. My plan is solid if you don't fuck it up by being you.

OP here just drunk a bottle of wine and smoked 5 cigs. I have failed you /r9k/. Let this thread die and be entombed in the archives for all eternity so our descendants can look back and see what a pathetic creature man is.

>>25168747

Before you go look up mindfulness. Drinking and smoking aren't bad, but do everything purposefully. Next time you do it try to enjoy them for their own sake. Taste the wine, feel the alcohol's effects subtly creep up, then do the same with tobacco. Trying something different can help get you out of the cycle and into a more mindful mindset. I prefer hookah or nasal snuff for my tobacco so I don't know cigarettes but choose a more full flavor blend like American spirit black. Wine is so different just grab anything but your usual. Black box has some very solid offerings, bota box is good too. I enjoy talking with staff too, they have good suggestions for branching out.
