Method Suicide by Masturbation

[Davey36000]

Does masturbation shorten life?

TL;DR at the end.

I would like to look at eunuchs here, but it is worth mentioning animals, and there have been studies[1] in which reduction in sexual activity in animal organisms resulted in an increase in the lifespan of their organisms, slowing down aging.

On humans, I found studies only on eunuchs, in whom an extensionof life was observed, which is presented below.

In the 20th century castrations were performed on some difficult patients in psychiatric institutions. This was done to induce a calmer personality in the patients.

Scientists discovered [2] that castration prolongs life. Moreover, it was found that the younger the patient was when he was castrated, the longer he lived.

It should be mentioned that castrated and normal patients lived under the same conditions, which removes the problem of different lifestyles and the effects that may have on life expectancy.

All castrated patients were the same as the rest of the population in their daily lives except for the behaviors that led to castration.

That is, there was no health rationale for selecting specific patients for castration, indicating that the two groups were identical, so this experiment may yield meaningful conclusions. The experiment included 297 castrated menand 735 normal patients. It is important to note that half of the castrated population in the experiment survived to age 70, while half of the rest survived only to age 55! I made the graph myself, the original graph is in the article[2].

​

A study from Korea found that castrated men lived 14 years extra[3] than the average life expectancy.

Eunuchs grew their hair back!
Men who were castrated before the typical pattern of male pattern baldness did not go bald. Men who were castrated with aging-related alopecia reported regrowth of lost hair[4]. This directs to the anti-aging effect of castration.

TL;DR
Castrated, men live 14 years longer, animal organisms deprived of sexual activity lived longer. It can be theorized that if abstaining from sexual activity prolongs life, then masturbation shortens life.

Is that because your biological purpose is to procreate? Sex then die right? Some organisms even die right after they reproduce.

 

[Camper]

The paper on Korean eunuchs says that this correlation is likely due to the antagonistic effects of male sex hormones. Testosterone is immunosuppressive, apparently, so that makes some level of sense. It'd also explain the lack of balding.

I didn't see any evidence to suggest that masturbation would cause a early death at all. I'm bit flabbergasted as to how the original OP made that correlation.

I'll also say, as an aside, that becoming a eunuch is obviously a bad idea. Quality of life > quantity of life.

I don't know tbh. I'm more interested in quality of life rather than longevity of life.

No I'm saying that if people are castrated, maybe they live longer because their body knows that it isn't fulfilling its biological purpose, and is waiting to live long enough to achieve it. Maybe the solution (to ctb) is to have a lot of s*x lol. Live fast die young. I'm also more interested in quality of life rather than longevity of life.

If this is a new potential ctb method to be developed, I would volunteer to help develop it. As I am already refining "masturbation thearpy" which helps me overcome past trauma. I am also convinced about this; https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/masturbation-to-help-with-sn-ingestion.107206/

...so will try to incorporate it somehow into my SN regime. I might make a goodbye thread here (when my time comes) to let you lot know whether it worked for me or not. Turning to what OP has suggested. I don't know if one can assume it does based on the reverse effects. But I do believe being lonely is a great way to help with ctb'ing;

Loneliness Epidemic Tied to Cancer, Dementia, Other Diseases

Loneliness, once considered a mere longing for connection, is gaining recognition from doctors and scientists as something much more dangerous: a risk for heart disease, dementia, certain cancers, and even death.

www.webmd.com

Loneliness also increases the risk of dementia by 50%, heart disease by 29%, and stroke by 32%, according to a 2020 report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). If a person with heart disease experiences loneliness, they face four times the risk of early death and a 68% higher risk of hospitalization.

Speaking as a lonely man, I feel so much weaker after an extended masturbation session (it helps with trauma thou, hence why I refer to these as a sort of thearpy). So that is got to be good for ctb'ing. Let me put it this way, masturbating drains a man's body of vital salts, minerals, sugars and fluids. So if you were to say drink SN / N or try to OD on H / F etc I am sure you'll therefore need less of it to successfully catch the bus.
