'''Stimfapping''' is a highly sophisticated [[Psychonautics|psychonaut]] activity which involves intense masturbation sessions while under the influence of [[stimulants]]. Due to the [[increased libido]] commonly produced by certain [[stimulants]], regular users often feel the need to engage in sexual and autosexual acts more often. [[entactogenic]] stimulants, such as [[MDMA]], are usually associated with increased emotional connection and users are disinhibited and more likely to engage in physical intimacy with others. However, some non-entactogenic stimulants, such as [[amphetamine]] and [[methamphetamine]] can cause anxiety and anti-social behavior, sometimes forcing users to masturbate rather than seek sexual partners. Amphetamine use is also connected with erectile dysfunction and [[Orgasm depression|difficulty orgasming]] <ref>Chou NH, Huang YJ, Jiann BP. The Impact of Illicit Use of Amphetamine on Male Sexual Functions. J Sex Med. 2015 Aug;12(8):1694-702. doi: 10.1111/jsm.12926. Epub 2015 Jul 6. PMID: 26147855.</ref>, thus even prolonging the time needed to reach desired satisfaction. Anecdotal evidence suggests that majority of stimfappers are male, although the libido-influencing nature of stimulants is present in all sexes.

==History and culture==

Stimfapping is hypothesized to have been practiced over 5,000 years ago when [[Ephedrine]] started being used in traditional Chinese medicine. Due to its mild dopamine releasing effects it is likely that proto-stimfapping occured.

While scholars disagree how the term "stimfapping" was coined, it was likely popularized by the r/Stims community on the popular website Reddit.

==Pharmacology==

~~Typically stimfaping~~ is typically practiced under the influence of [[~~dopaminergic~~]] releasing ~~agents~~ or reuptake-~~inhibitors~~, these substances often ~~have~~ minor [[serotonergic]] activity ~~but above a certain threshold the Psychonaut tends to seek out social interaction~~, ~~connection~~.

Stimfaping is typically practiced under the influence of a [[dopamine]] releasing agent or reuptake-inhibitor, these substances often also contribute minor [[serotonergic]] activity.

Anecdotal evidence also suggest that careful addition of an opioid agonist might promote comfort and feelings of self-affection, while helping reducing twitchiness.

Stimfapping carries risks of stimulant abuse and pornography/masturbation addiction, aswell as physical injury due to continuous friction over the extend of the ~~bindge~~.

Some users also report cases of intense epididymal hypertension(blue balls).<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Stims/comments/1dol6a7/does_stimfapping_require_ejaculation_by_definition</ref>

Other serious side effects include sexual dysfunction, social isolation and feelings of shame once no longer under the influence of [[stimulants]].
