Curb my enthusiasm!

Everything in moderation… Even moderation itself?

I’m thinking I need to slow down. For finance and general mental health. But it’s pretty hard.

Any tips?

I find myself in a similar situation. Last week I had visits on Sunday, Tuesday & Thursday.

What works for me is getting truly engaged in another pursuit. Last week my work week was boring as shit on tasks I do not enjoy, I therefore seek to escape from that and fucking cute asian chicks is a nice escape.

This week I feel I have a much better week coming up. I've booked meetings with interesting people. I delegated my shit tasks.

For me, it's about goals. When I focus to fruitful goals then I seek out women less.

Maybe need to find something exciting / high risk.

Good advice! I’ll try this.

Maybe need to find something exciting / high risk. Big problem is running my own business I can go out anytime.

Buy some crypto. You'll be staring at the mobile phone all day sweating bullets... plus you'll have no cash to buy sex... leaving better deals for the rest of us.

Hey, it’s worth a shot.

What worked for me was aging 40 years.

Agree with Harry - there will come a time when the libido and tesosterone will slow you down. But before that sad state happens.
Finacially - dur set yourself a budget AND STICK TO IT. and its your budget, what do YOU feel comfortable spending on mongering, what other financial avenues are you prepared to forgo to support your habit like savings, repayments, etc - I wrote a post about chopping up your income between essentials, savings and play money. Some suggested 50/20/30 split. I have prob done a 45/35/20 split historically.
Mentally - place mongering in the context that you should - I am paying someone to have sex with me. Align thoughts and actions. Any form of guilt, doubt, be comfortable with what you do. What areas of your mental health are you concerned mongering is having a negative effect on? As said, feel confident and comfortable with everything you do.

But specifically - remember when you were young you used to look forward to friday night. Why? It was takeaway night. Take those 3 sessions of punting done and spend the money and time on a big blast once a week.
Pre COVID when I travelled OS twice a year I'm pretty sure my dick grew bigger and bigger as the date approached.

Keep a budget on what you spend and look at it - think what else you could buy/have for that money. Do you know for one punting session you could probably have 4 great meals at a restaurant.

I always have 3 days at least between punts builds up the tesosterone. Play the long game - lets see if you have 3 punts a week for 2/3 years what do you think will happen?

Would it hurt to replace one punt with a Pornhub session? Yeah I know its not the same but think of the positives, choice of girl, choice of situation, choice of scenarios.......

And distraction lastly.... what other activities could take the place - I mean 3 punts a week - thats prob at least $600 - surfing, go karting, gym, fishing ???????

The main thing is to feel comfortable with what you are doing or just have James Dean's philosophy "live as if you will die today".

Stop reading this and other punter forums.

I find it is part of the fun if my work/life takes me to a far away suburb that I can then try that shop that I've read so much about. I like Smile but I rarely get that direction, so when I do I'm certain to go punting regardless if it's been 1,2 3 days. I'm like a massage shop tourist, all because of this forum.

so trying to stay off this forum removes some ideas.

Mongering is generally not as deleterious as other addictions so it's difficult to find a reason to stop. But like others have said– impose constraints on yourself if it really starts to get out of hand. Fill your life up with other crap and the impulse will become less intense over time. For me it's filling in the nights. That's when I feel the pull the most.

anything’s a trigger.

Maybe I should try lower my testosterone

Enjoy it while you can.

You'll get to a certain age, and the girls will start curbing it for you!
