"a feeling that makes one self-conscious and unable to act in a relaxed and natural way."

I've been thinking about this lately. How does one optimally calibrate their inhibition? Contrast Charlie Sheen with a nerdy beta software engineer Billy. Sheen got AIDS by fucking too many girls raw, low inhibition. Billy may get IOI's from girls because he earns six figures but has low confidence and doesn't execute, high inhibition. How does one calibrate their inhibition appropriately? In terms of sexual strategy this is pertinent because a man is expected by society to act, so he must lower his inhibition if he is to lead, but in the Aristotelian sense too much of low inhibition, well ask Magic Johnson

How do you guys approach the question of inhibition? Historically I used drugs and alcohol but that is non sustainable, I've turned to no fap and lifting now. Way I see it is this. There are two ways to calibrate inhibition, external and internal. Drugs and alcohol would be external versus self improvement which is internal. I find internal to be both healthier and sustainable. I'd appreciate thoughts on this psychological phenomenon. Cheers
