It affects me and many other men, and seemingly effects those who grew up in the porn generation a lot more frequently.
Basically after orgasm I feel a total loss of motivation to do anything. Not only that but it is combined with a general background anxiety, more social anxiety (don't wanna really speak to people or look them in the eye, no interest in socialising, fear of being judged), and a feeling of generally being quite lame.
I know this has a lot to do with dopamine desensitization. However I know people don't buy the 'receptors' theory round here.
My thoughts are that something hormonal is going on in the background, or maybe general energy is just too low at baseline, so that orgasm drains it even more. Even masturbation without orgasm ruins my mood for hours afterwards.
When it is achieved through sex then the lethargic/anxious feeling is not as strong, because at least you know you have successfully 'spread your seed' and made someone else feel really good.
Does anyone have thoughts to share on this?
