Semen Retention

[zack89]

It's been a few months since I've masturbated. On top of that, my gf and I have not had sex in about two weeks (long story short, she suffered a leg injury that makes it difficult, she is healing though). I haven't even had so much as a wet dream either, and throughout this last two weeks I've discovered a few things about the effects of actively retaining seed.

The first week is always a hurdle, but after it:
- I'm less impulsive and more in control.
- My dick is bigger and longer flaccid.
- Nerve endings are more sensitive.
- My dreams are more vivid.
- I have better mental clarity and focus.
- My pheromones are way more potent. (my nuts smell good)
- The next load will be plenteous and thick.

I still look at porn, and I still fantasize, yet I've developed the self-control to simply not masturbate. Rather, I sit there in keen awareness of the sensations in my body, which I enjoy in itself. I will likely masturbate again at some point, but not doing so for long periods of time has many beneficial effects physiologically and mentally for males, and probably to some extent females too. Orgasms release a lot of energy after all, so what happens when you allow that energy to build up over a long period of time? Find that out for yourself.

Good observation. Sexual energy is a very specific type of energy, have you ever wondered what is happening in your brain, specifically in the pineal gland? There are amazing processes taking place there, but it is difficult to realize what is happening and it is difficult to direct it. Let me just say that the set of 'pedophilic mental disorders' makes these trials unique.

For me it works like this: I have a broader perspective of the world, it's as if I expanded my consciousness, and I can also enter states in which I can, well, do amazing things in people's heads. This is how I channel this energy.

I also absorb other people's energies, positive and negative, often dark and scary energies, and... Okay, I won't write what I do next, I've strayed too far from the main thread .

There is no chance that I can stop masturbating. I have tried before, but can only last a few days. I wake up in the morning and look at porn and masturbate, then I go workout and work. If I am by myself for the day with nothing on my agenda I might masturbate 3 or 4 times. I used to masturbate 10-15 times a day.

Ditch the porn.  You'll feel better long term.  Trust me.

Rest sounds awesome.  congrats.

LOL, you all are nuts, except Pedo4VR

You know the term Hangry? Being angry from Hunger?

Well, I get Cumgry? Someone come up with a better term, please.

If I don't shoot my load one way or another, I am a pissed off unpleasant person. Always have been, always will be. I do love to edge, but it has to end in release.

• cumpy - cum & grumpy
• cwanky - wank & cranky
• faptious - fap & fractious
• cumbling - cum & grumbling
• cumphish - cum & mumphish
• I could go on...

Edit: The list tag seems broken, can't get it to work properly, it keeps adding random tags. after a bazillion attempts it finally worked, maybe someone double-check that script in the background

It's true, I don't hide it and I never did. Everyone knows all my disorders and surprisingly no one has locked me up yet - although according to the laws of the country I live in I should be locked up and never let out .

And I have no problem with sex, I'm not an ascetic, sometimes I'm a sex maniac, I simply don't masturbate anymore because I consider it a waste of time and energy.

Well, I think many monks, priests or whatever we call them may have confronted these situation of not masturbating at all for long periods of time. In the past, people thought that loosing sperm was kind of loosing some "energy" in the body. I'm not so sure scientists think the same in terms of real energy. Spermatozoa have a short life cycle and at the end... they "go out" via a voluntary or accidental ejaculation or simply die, their elements are reabsorbed by the body and replaced by new ones...

Even with that I think that semen retention may play a role in improving the quality of orgasms... even if I never tried beyond one week. It may be like fasting, the first days are horrible and beyond 4-5 days some people feel a sensation of energy and plenitude. Maybe in both cases the body is kind of "accepting" our decision (or incapability) of eating or going abstinent and giving us this sensation to improve our ability to find food or reproduce...

Semen is more than just sperm - it is living energy in its purest, simplest form. Of course, people in the past were right, losing semen does mean losing this energy. The point is not to never waste this energy, but to direct it correctly and purposefully, otherwise it is a great waste.

I've done various experiments in the past. Has anyone tried multiple dry orgasms? Or combinations of dry and wet orgasms in different proportions?

I've gone through periods of trying the "NoFap" technique, but I haven't done it in a while. For me the pros outweigh the cons. Sure, it can make you more alert and motivated sometimes, but I really like masturbating because it acts as a potent sleep aid, as well as the obvious benefit of feeling great. I don't really need the extra energy most of the time, but when I occasionally do I'll still go a couple days without doing it.

Probably, I've tried, and one day I will again, but for now I'm satiating my voyeuristic desire.

I'm literally on 5 decades of masturbating to porn and there is no stopping at this point. I agree I would be in a better place. I stopped drinking a year and a half ago. My uncle exposed me to porn at a young age. At my home(s) growing up there were always copies of Penthouse and Playboy's laying around. I was mesmerized with Penthouse Forum when I was 12 and often fantasized about being one of the women in the stories and I would service my uncle or other men. I would wear panties and masturbate back then. I craved cock and still do to this day. But I stopped wearing panties by age 18 and became more attracted to young and older girls. By the time I was 18 I had been sexual with at least 10 girls.

Sometimes I edge, but then I let it simmer down. Apparently that is a tantric practice. I'm not gonna lie though, I'm no sage monk, 80% of my thoughts have been sexual since I started this. And I'm constantly in anticipation of my next orgasm and how intense it will be.

It used to be a lot more important to me to masturbate when I was younger. I got to a point where I was practically doing it compulsively to be able to sleep. I mean, not that I didn't enjoy it, but I also remember when I got put on some anti-depressants that made it like impossible for me to climax, and I said fuck not to those. Masturbation was way too important at that time.

In my older age, I will go for pretty long periods of time without masturbating frequently now. In some ways it's kind of nicer to wait, too, because after it's built-up for a while is way more intense. Which is an obvious thing, of course, but just something that I have never come to appreciate until recently.

Ah yes, the good old SSRIs and their side effect that you can last forever. It can be fun in bed when you outlast your girl by ten to the power of x times and drive her beyond what she thought was possible. Yes, I have taken higher doses than prescribed on purpose to get this effect.
