Like attracts like? 😜😜😜


What you know leaves what you don't know and what you don't know is all there is.

One thing I've noticed is that throughout my life my lobido has always been quite low, and I've experienced very little sexual attraction to others and no real romantic interest in people.

I've had dulled emotions for about 10 years or so. 

 

Going by polyvegal theory I'd say we both have an underactivated ventral vagal response. Like it or not the best way to cultivate that part of the nervous system is through playful socialization. It's why people who don't have a lot of friends will often get a pet. If a person is lacking the ability be playfully social with others, they will tend to always be at a disadvantage in this regard.   This is a skill that you can develop, which I'm trying to do by watching content like "chrisma on command" on youtube.  It's just important given our biology so I'm forcing the issue.  That back and forth banter that Schizophonia and Arabia did as an example... good for the nervous system. That's how normies act, and a lot of Autists and introverts and people with anxiety disorders are not good at it. A lot of men who have problems keeping women are too serious, not playful, they lack a personality.

Other then that I'd say keep a fixed healthy sleep schedule and unwind when you are not working, meaning don't spend every waking moment in front of a screen when you are off work. Avoid any content that is negative in nature, anger provoking such as world news/ world events or anything "black pill" related. Practice sitting in a room doing nothing. It's a great nervous system release. If you actually do this you may notice intense feelings come to the surface, like Leo says in his video on "meditation technique do nothing" ... need to be able to let the feelings out without resistance... be the "emotional superconductor" ...  You need proper mindset. Thoughts ultimately create feelings over time.  A negative mindset will lead to no progress. It just won't.

I'm curious what your cholesterol level is... I have a theory that a lot of people in this state have cholesterol that is too low, simply because being stressed out all the time depletes the body's hormones which are made from cholesterol like cortisol. Low cholesterol is often seen in disease states. If you are skinny, vegan, and anxious/depressed, a low cholestrol is likely the result. I eat meat and eggs to try to keep it above 150ish, as it's tested as low as 115 mg/dl ... that low and your body can't produce steroid hormones optimally especially under stress.

This webpage is one of the most comprehensive I've come across describing what you mention.

You should also get your testosterone levels tested. If you do, I'd love to hear the results. Low testosterone levels in men might be an issue.  I've fixed my nervous system to the point where I can exercise and weight train to failure again. Weight training, especially to failure, used to quickly bring up nervous system fatigue in me. It's a gradual process to fix chronic stress states.

All do meditation/do nothing.

I understand what you're saying about socialisation though.

I hate that all of this is so fucking complicated to figure out.
