Welcome to the Semen Retention General!Efficiency in Energy Edition!>What is Semen Retention?Semen retention is the practice of completely abstaining from masturbation and ejaculation, often with the intention of preserving and redirecting vital and sexual energy to oneself.>Why do it?Reported benefits include: increased vitality, mental clarity, reduced stress, increased motivation, increased energy, improved focus, healthier hair/skin/eyes, deeper meditation, improved AP/Lucid Dreams, deeper voice, improved mood, greatly improved testosterone, improved physical strength and many more.>Wet Dreams?They happen because you had a sexual dream and you coomed. Learn to be conscious on your dreams and stop the succubus.>What causes wet dreams?The causes are many: Illnesses, telepathic bad actors fucking with your dreams, excess energy build up, watching too much sexually-inducing stuff, lusting during the day, lack of an adequate transmutation activity, eating too late at night, excess nutrients overall, stimulants like maca, ginseng, ginger, excess protein, excess carbs, tight clothes (pajamas) for bedtime, bad sleeping posture (this varies, find the one that suits you best), going to bed with full bladder, exposure to hormonal disruptors via food (pesticides...) or body care products (soap, deodorant etc)...Previous thread>>40980698
>In case of urges:- https://imgur.com/gallery/g4eGH- Don't peek and Hold your breath for as long as you possibly can. The urge usually pass after that. If not, repeat.- Horse stance or chair pose: Do it while clenching the abdomen and all legs' muscles, raise arms for extra blood flow redirection. Works both for killing erections or urges.- Any physical activity.On long clean streaks many report benefits that transcend current science like a sort of "magnetism" or higher "vibration/aura" that attracts/appeals to other living beings, a higher perception, a stronger and intimidating "aura/presence", a deeper connection with nature, an attractive BO (people usually report it as "pheromones") and more.>Advices:- Mental Purity 1.1: Semen Retention acts as a bio-electromagnetic amplifier. Watch the quality of your thoughts because your inner state will get amplified and manifested. Lust is the Ojas killer. Do not engage with Lust.- Mental Purity 1.2: Keep a journal as a tool for introspection.- NEVER watch porn of any kind.- Remove triggers from your life. Masturbation is a bad habit. Break that bad habit.- Focus on achieving a goal. An art, a craft, competing, etc.- Meditate and/or Pray Daily. Try a minimum of 5 minutes to start off.- Exercise/Gym/Sports/Martial Arts. If it is something social even better.- Good habits like healthy eating, water fasting, dry fasting, sun exposure and cold showers do seem to speed up the process.- Sublimation: literally using the energy.- Transmutation: changing the quality of energy to something different. (Surya Namaskara, 8 brocades, Tibetan rites)- Avoid stimulant drugs such as caffeine or adderall
Keep in mind that the efferent nerves attached to your testes necessarily means that any lustful thought, image, or sound is necessarily a command to your junk to produce sexual fluids and this is the reason why celibacy is first and foremost of the mindThe root of this entire matter is the mind - without conquering the mind, celibacy is a futile effortThe signals from the brain happen on the subconscious autonomic levelThis is why any lustful thought, image, or sound is necessarily a command to the sexual organs to produce sexual fluids (the more intently you look, the higher amplitude of a signal gets sent: body > afferent nerves > brain > efferent nerves > body)Therefore "Conversion of sexual energy to something" is necessarily a HORRIBLY inefficient process (Not to confuse with Sexual Transmutation)Fluids will be reabsorbed, but the energy and materials cost to make it vs how much is "taken back" via reabsorption is SEVERELY unbalanced and super net negativeSexual fluids are made from the cream of the crop of the body's resources - constantly generating them means that you are constantly draining away the cream of the crop of your resources.Taoist writings said that the sexual organs will even take primacy over nourishing your other internal organs at some point. (Thus, doing a spiritual practice as a coomer is a surefire way to die faster).>/SRG/ interesting readshttps://pastebin.com/qbTd4Laihttps://pastebin.com/dzA2yCdr

It’s always good to remember why /x/ is the most accurate place for this topic: semen retention is one of the clearest paranormal inducing thing of all the other topics discussed on /x/. It’s a sacred practice that has been the one of the main focuses in every major religion or spiritual practices. The mystical side of it is what we try to focus on in here.Semen retention can be political issue too and it would then belong to /pol/. The porn industry is a tool made by the jews to deterioate the societies and corrupt the people. The porn works in ways that program new sets of behaviour in its audience and the audience is hooked to it because of its strong addictive qualities. The most important goal for porn’s male audience was and is the releasing of their semen. As we now know, the disadvantages of cooming are heavy: a man becomes less of a man, he gets sick and weak, his mind numbed, he will have impotence issues etc. Also his spirit almost dies.Semen retention is beneficial to make one healthier and stronger, more fit, if you will. So the topic could be discussed on /fit/. Anyone looking for more ways to get fitness gains would benefit hugely from the SR.Also the SR has so many other benefits that it could be discussed in the /adv/ board. These would be topics how it improves one’s social life, mental state, makes more time to be more productive etc.But I think the biggest benefits of SR are something mystical in nature and the whole practice is fundamentally something very close to spiritual side of things. All the other topics in here /x/ are left far behind and SR actually makes this board of any relevancy. This is also known by the enemy and they make strong efforts to suppress, hijack, twist and end this discussion.

>>40996182Has anyone tried hypnosis this works greatI have a 30 day streak using thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7Fpr8rul7sTHIS SHOULD IN EVERY THREAD WORKS GREAT !
I have this spot on my temple that I use for measurement on how far my hairline recedes. Before and during the start of my SR journey it was slowly receding. Obviously, reading on several websites finding out about the possibility (in some they claim it even) of reversing the process, I have dedicated myself to this process for almost 20 months now. I must admit I had several wet dreams throughout this period, but release were little to none thanks to (pic related, love this method, it's what any retainer should know and try) Since the start of this year I was noticing the reversal. Small hairs started growing. At first I thought I was just seeing shit, but as time went on the hairs grew visible (I can stroke them now lol). Top of my hair feels thicker as well. Top of my hair doesn't really matter, it's the sides, or temple as I mentioned. I have pictures of myself at 16/17 where that part didn't have hair (of course I was a raging coomer back then). To have it growing back now does make sense. I know a lot of you guys, unlike me who's pure and cool and other stuff you will never be, do this to become a better version of yourself so you can be more attractive to the right women. You can deny this, I can deny this, but deep deep down, we all have that inner part of us that still wants to do as nature intended. To achieve that a full bush of hair is useful, it's a fact that receding hairlines are very common, especially in young guys (I've seen shit man. A 16 year old that has less hair on his head than the most receding guy I know.) These gooners are getting out of hand. But they see no bright light in SR. Well, I'm claiming it here and now. It does reverse the process. Be patient and find out. Don't care if you don't, only if you do. I know you can make it.
>>40996303Wrong pic related.
It's not enough to simply abstain from masturbation and watching porn. You have to transmute the sexual energy from your root chakra up your spine into your higher chakras. This is sexual transmutation is mental alchemy and this is how you get your spiritual powers. This is the reason why this practice has been kept hidden throughout the ages because the powers that be don't want you to discover mental alchemy.
>>40996313Yeah, fucked up pic related kek.
Never relapse, pull yourself up!YOU PUNY WEAKLING
Daily reminder that if you don't use it, you lose it. If your schizo theories were right about sexual energy, chi ,vril etc. Then men like genghis khan wouldn't exist. There are plenty of chads spilling their seed 24/7 while being energized, meanwhile the SR bros reject life.They look at being high test, high sexdrive, spreading your genes as a bad thing, while they withdraw from everything and some go to such extremities to even avoid eating meat and doing anything that would increase their libido. Do you really want to be a chud monk your entire life?
it just that... you know.. I will not let the evil skeksis (jews) have my essence (semen)
>>40996444*it´styping like some third worlder...
Man I'm bored. Fapping was such a pastime for me. Hard to get interested in new stuff.
Reminder that if you're struggling to get into the month long streak territory then it's okay to do structured on purpose faps (it's how I made it)>3 days>5 days>1 week>2 weeks>etcI should note though, this should only be used as a last resort, and if you can go for longer than your allocated days then go for it. This is ONLY for people who are really struggling, like desperately. Make sure you follow the rules though, for this to be effective you not only have to not look at porn, but also not touch yourself (not even a half fap), and do your absolute best to avoid dirty thoughts (these aren't so bad early on, but become a real problem during the longer streaks).>You get a bonus if you decide not to use porn on your fap day, by the way.I've found that by having a set goal day, it made me push forward where normally I would have given in and relapsed. After a while of doing this, you will naturally abandon the structure entirely and fledge into an SR chad where you don't even think about fapping anymore, because you'll find that you're enjoying your time more and more without it. You will find that the few times you do go to revisit porn you won't even be interested by it anymore (even disgusted in some cases), and if you do relapse your brain will realise the reward from cooming is not commensurate with the amount of shitness you feel afterwards, and associate that with a negative feeling. In essence, your brain will be tricked into thinking that fapping makes you feel bad, and the urge to do it will almost completely vanish given enough time.There will be shills who instantly reply to this post trying to say this is a horrible idea, followed by some completely retarded baseless logic as to why. They don't want struggling people to make it, just ignore them. Take this arcane knowledge, and use it to defeat the demons. Godspeed

>>40996494To the lurkers: This user was repeatedly shown to be a shill in the previous thread. >>40994673Here’s a good way to identify shills:>is this person a shill? I can’t tell…Are they telling you to jerk off and/or watch porn?>yes!They are a shill. As per thread hygiene guidelines, do not engage with shills. (I’m a hypocrite for breaking thread hygiene, but it’s important to call out sneaky shills like this guy. They give advice that seems reasonable on the surface, but once you think about it for more than a few seconds you’ll realize that it doesn’t actually make any sense.Weener, I’ll be in every new thread to link back to you getting BTFO’d. I’m not going to let you convince even a single lurker to jerk off.I’ll be in the next threadAnd the next one.And the next one.And the next one.And so on. )
>>40996494The large amount of people will introduce a fap day and then not continue to ween themselves off. Its a plan with regimented failure. Cold turkey is the best way, removing ALL problematic stimuli that may trigger you, and then simply go as long as possible. I would recommend introducing new hobbies or beneficial habits to fill your time. If you have an urge, acknowledge it and immediately do something else to pre-occupy yourself. If you follow his advice, it will be hard to make it to long term because you keep resetting your chemical biology, urges, and emotional dependence on it early on. You will ironically struggle more for longer not realizing why you can't make it to a year or more. Its a terrible plan. It was explained to him why in the other thread & couldn't seem to understand that you need to reset your biology for as long periods early on to ensure long term success but he is suggesting you hamstring yourself constantly throughout the process.
!!Don't be a weener!!
HOLY SH... do I see a complete OP? FINALLY!!
>>40996540A large amount*
>>40996308A lot of the posts on here are about people trying to struggle through or power through desires, there is another way.I've been doing SR for a while now.. my longest streak is something like 150 days, I only break streaks with my GF, never on my own, it's probably been a decade since I've done that I can't remember.Anyway recently I discovered a practice called "Returning fire to (it's) origin." It is a practice that monastics in the Chan and Taoist traditions use to calm their sexual energy, obtrusive thoughts etc. I've been playing around with it and it's sort of a game changer. I'm not sure if I am able to do it relatively easily because I have learned other qigong in the past, but it's not that complicated, for me anyway. There are several methods, none of them are over complicated, as far as qigong goes. One basic method is to massage the yong quan point (kindney 1) a few hundred times before bed. The feeling is that the sexual energy, rebellious qi, nervous energy, lustful thoughts, settle / sink into a sort of container where they don't cause problems, and instead generate a calm powerful energy. Give it a try.>>40974922https://www.acupuncture.com/education/points/kidney/kid1.htm

Biological interactions happen when people view porn, causing men to experience erections and women to experience dilated genitals and lubrication from the vaginal walls (NHS, 2016; NHS, 2016). However, psychological changes also occur. fMRIs revealed that when men watch porn, elevated activity in the ventral striatum can be observed where the brains reward-system releases dopamine, the neurotransmitter responsible for pleasure (Hess, 2017; Simpson, 2017). The amygdala (the brain portion responsible emotional behaviour and motivation), also activates when viewing porn (Gola et al., 2015), both of which activates the brains reward-pathway which influences conditioning towards desiring a certain stimulus again - a process which can lead to pornography addictions (Hess, 2017). Furthermore, those who view greater amounts of porn also have lesser volumes of grey matter (The Guardian, 2014). Whilst this finding does not suggest causation, it is important to note that the average age of males who start viewing pornography for the first time is 10 years old – an age where critical brain-development is still in the process (Hess, 2017). Therefore structural brain differences/damage could reflect consequences of pornographic use.https://www.theroompsy.com/psychology-sex-identities-society/The%20Problem%20With%20Porn:%20Heteronormativity%20&%20Gender-roleshttps://www.yourbrainonporn.com/https://personandidentity.com/transgenders-connection-with-pornography-its-undeniable/https://genspect.org/porn-the-great-identity-interrupter-no-one-wants-to-talk-about/https://www.womenarehuman.com/pornographys-influence-on-transgenderism-the-proliferation-of-sissy-hypno-on-social-media/https://www.widerlenspod.com/p/episode-179https://lifehackerguy.com/how-to-do-dopamine-detox-the-right-way/

>>40996494Looks like there's an, interesting... response to this post
>>40996540This anon is right. Just think about it. Say you coom every day for 2 weeks. Your brain has become desensitized and fried. You then decide to slowly ween yourself off. Let's say you set a goal for 7 day breaks. Your brain has become sensitized again in those 7 days, and when you coom next the "feel good" chemicals spike MUCH higher than they were when you were doing it every day, strengthening the bond to porn even further. It becomes a forbidden fruit situation. Sure, some people have succeeded in quitting while practising this, but it wasn't because of weening, it was in spite of it. You're just prolonging the actual process of quitting porn. Someone who goes cold turkey after months of "weening" doesn't succeed because of the weening, they succeeded because they went cold turkey. So just get it over with and quit coping telling yourself you need to ween off of porn. It's easy to quit. Just stop. I highly recommend EVERYONE here to listen to "The Easy Peasy Way to Quit Pornography" audiobook on youtube. It goes into much further detail and is very highly praised for actually working. It may actually be shadowbanned as well. I and many other people cannot find it using the search bar. If it is shadowbanned, the jews obviously don't want you listening to it, meaning it must work. The 4 hour listen is nothing compared to a lifetime of addiction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27H4-pN8e9o

I will say again, the most noteworthy thing about this weener is not that he's merely misguided or even flat out wrong, no, it's the turbo irascible attitude. No one else in these threads has a melty like this when his notions are challenged. Let that be a clue. Does someone who can't disagree without calling the other person a retarded cunt have any credibility at all?Don't listen to this weener.
>>40996749>You then decide to slowly ween yourself off. Let's say you set a goal for 7 day breaks. Your brain has become sensitized again in those 7 days, and when you coom next the "feel good" chemicals spike MUCH higher than they were when you were doing it every day, strengthening the bond to porn even further. It becomes a forbidden fruit situation. Sure, some people have succeeded in quitting while practising this, but it wasn't because of weening, it was in spite of it.You get it. Given enough days of consecutive streak your biology resets and there is drastically reduced to no more struggle.You have to make it to that threshold it will be slightly different for each person but with reintroduction of the habit at 3, 5, 7 days etc you are prolonging what is necessary to heal for no reason. Introduction of different habits that are enjoyable and beneficial is key. Also just completely remove ALL stimuli that trigger you. Make it non-existent.
>>40996931>slowly ween yourselfI'm late to the party. What does this new jargon mean?
>>40996945Nothing. It's another absolute cowshit shill cope. See previous thread for the play-by-play.

Day 69 here and I'm getting no magnetism at all bros. To be fair I only get out about twice a month to grocery shop. But I honestly expected women to be ambushing me in the cereal aisle demanding my number.But it's just business as usual. Is the grocery store just the wrong place?>inb4 you're uglyI'm a mid looking dude, tall, skinny but toned.Frequent sex since 16, but the last 2 years has been dry because of a breakup and me being inside gooning.
>>40997062>I honestly expectedThere's your first problem.
The Weener might be one of JIDF’s best shills yet. Not only did he introduce a 100% success-proof method that will surely cause continuous relapses and failures, he also triggered people so much into repeatedly bickering with him.
>>40997062you fell for a meme and made sure your dick wont work anymore. Did you really think not touching your cock will suddenly make you a chad? There's a reason chads fuck nonstop and the more they have the more they will get. Reality is actually quite the opposite of what SR chuds propose, the less sexual energy you have, the less you will get laid. Do you really look at monks and think girls are attracted to them ? lol. Use it or you lose it
>>40997062>Day 69 here and I'm getting no magnetism at all bros. To be fair I only get out about twice a month to grocery shopfellow no magnetism haver here (i once thought), only going out twice per month is the problem. if you're a mid looking dude who's skinny you can clean up. the problem is you're barely outside. expect huge magnetism benefits but you have to be outside and "activated" for it to really feel like you notice
>>40997139Brother, why? lolI mean, I never go on threads that I have no interest in and I don't like... I don't visit succubus threads, tulpa threads... not satanism threads either. Look at yourself, if you're here baiting and emotionally invested in posting it's because you're intrigued at the prospect... Something inside you is captivated by being free from the addiction that enslaves you. Think about it. Be well.
>>40997250>day 69 here>replies to the general's jester/doomsayerYou can still make it.
For the millionth time. The point of semen retention isn't to have sex. Why isn't this clocking to you people yet? The entire point is to transcend carnal desires. I'm engaging with shills aren't I?
>>40997250Ignore shills/trolls/demons.
>>40996711Look. Basically I'm just not gonna masturbate. I know.. UGH I know.. IM SORRY! It's just that I'm not doing it is all.
Peeked at my ex's nudes before bed last night and felt a vibrating sensation in my groin. Did not touch myself. A couple hours later I woke up with pain in my lower stomach area. I don't like counting streaks but I'm 10 days in atm and it's insane how much a shot of dopamine even peeking injects into your system. I actually felt a rush to my head when I looked at her pics. Do you guys think the stomach pain is a guilt response or something else?
>>40997062im on day 19 and have been getting high magnetism and respect from people so far but i go out often
>>40997423You bring up a good point that hopefully will trigger other anons into epiphany.Why do you care about magnetism? Why do you care if girls are checking you out and smiling at you if you don't want to have sex with them? Shouldn't you be fleeing from lust?
It's a painting. My family is a painting. One story one frame one angle just looping forever. It doesn't get updated. The frame doesnt get expanded. It's just that one shot. One pose.One image that you can only see from one angle. They are set in their ways. they have already been painted. Already been programmed. Already been created and defined by the painter.It doesn't get refurbished. It doesn't get a sequel. It doesn't get remade. That's it. That's the painting. Same painting it's always been since 1862, 1633, 1500, 2003. Whatever.Same loop. Every day. I can't cook. They always come home at the same time. Say the same bullshit. Over and over. Same disturbance. Can't even read my audiobooks at risk of them ruining the mood. Can never seem to relax.No more. This year truly is my last stand. Or I join the 27 club. I make it out of this hellhole. I make it out of this dream.I want to read. I just want to read. That's it. I love writing. I love reading. Read and write and dream and manifest and feel. Focus and dream.Sick of the screens. Sick of the hell. Sick of the false light. Sick of the abstractions. Sick of the refracted light illusion. Sick of the deluded and mentally ill and unintelligent and unspiritual.Sick of the non sentient. Sick of the non playable. Sick of egregores and pendulums and the enslaved. Sick of the gooning and the world all under a spell of lust and desire.
>>40997908Those are all assumptions you've made. But there are benefits to magnetism other than having sex, for example people will treat you better and life will be all around easier and more enjoyable to go through.

Day 1 after a week SRLast time I cummed to the (anime) girl in my imagination, so no porn. And I deliberately give it to her so I didn't feel bad, guilty or something like that. Do you think this works or I'm already broken?
almost 4 days but i just peeked so im resetting my counter lol....
Ending a clean day 5 here. Was getting slight urges AKA the need for dopamine so I picked up my guitar again. I played earlier in the day and I was playing OK, but not up to speed to how I like and took a break for a few hours. Playing lightning fast pretty fucking clean rn. Transmuting the sexual energy into something works. Don't let it go to waste anons or it will drive you mad.
>>40997975It was like I was reading something that I wrote... feeling trapped aren't we? The neet life eventually starts tasting like deadly poison. Oh well.
>>40996494That's just how I started but>7 > 14 > 24 daysNow I'm on day 26 of a clean streak. Two whole months without masturbation seems pretty good for a start. That's also how you quit smoking with an adhesive dosage of 21mg > 14mg > 7mg. I don't care about if anyone will call me a shill, but it worked for me. I don't care about visiting nhentai anymore. I would go nuts if I missed a daily visit and missing all the new stuff. My gallery was closer to 9k. I don't miss it at all since the last relapse. WAGMI.
>>40996749>It may actually be shadowbanned as well. I and many other people cannot find it using the search bar. If it is shadowbanned, the jews obviously don't want you listening to it, meaning it must work. Out of curiosity I tested the auto suggestion in the search bar. I tried "to quit" + alphabet, it stopped working only when combined with "p", lol.
>>40998732Lmao this is weird as fuck anons. I took a break playing for a good 10-12 months cause my life went to shit, and in 6 hours practice over 3 days I've surpassed my playing level than when I was in my prime a year ago. And I'm not talking about slow pissy chord changes or easy songs, I'm talking blazing fast Paul Gilbert/Zakk Wylde alternate picking runs. I was fully expecting it to take weeks to get my chops up again. I think its a sign from Christ to continue on my SR journey, and to keep on doing what I'm good at instead of fapping like a loser and accomplishing nothing. Needless to say not only are my urges gone and dopamine fulfilled, but I'm proud of myself. God bless.
>>40997423don't worry i aint having sex any time soon lol
>>40997908>Why do you care if girls are checking you out and smiling at you if you don't want to have sex with them?one can attract women and not have sex with them, just ask yo momma
>>40996494JIDF toxic waste post.
>>40998810Good job senpai. These turbo retards are so upset at the fact that this method works they're willing to actively harm other anons who want to try it, even though it will end up helping them. That's part of the reason I made the post, it was to expose how truly malicious some of the people are in this thread. I'm pretty sure it all stems from them having a fragile ego, the lack of control they've had throughout their life from being a mindless coomer has made them feel like less of a man, so they have to constantly validate it. You can see it in the way they type out their posts, with common language being "just MAN up" etc, then they will call you a faggot for not following their method. They think if they don't constantly tell others (themselves) that they need to be a man they will regress back to being a faggot. This also has me convinced that they're closet faggots ofc, because nobody who is actually a man would feel the need to constantly validate themselves like this. Also rising above the cooming has inflated their ego to the point where they think they're unironically a god amongst men, like they're somehow more important than other people. You can see this in their severe lack of empathy and understanding. Any path that isn't their own is "bad" because if you go another way, they will be reminded of how pathetic and out of control they used to be, ie shattering their ego. Plus they like feeling in control, and having these people that are "below" them rise up to the same level is a threat because then they realise the control isn't that hard to achieve. Then they will not feel as special or important as their ego is making them feel right now, they will feel like a regular person, but they don't want to feel like a regular person they want to feel SPECIAL and better than everyone else.They're so fragile in fact, that the moment I post anything they will relentlessly samefag the post to appear "bigger" and "tougher" (classic fragile ego behaviour).
>>40996894You've larped as a 'different' anon like 10 times already in this thread, do you think we can't see it's you? You use the same old pathetic quips and insults, switch it up shill and you might have better results.
day 30, it's getting harder.
>>40996945They're upset at this post >>40996494They can't fathom the reality that there are other ways of achieving SR other than cold turkey.
>>40996749Nobody who is doing the weening method is coping, you're the only one coping. When you ween you're doing a measured, calculated approach with a clear end goal in mind. The real is cope is thinking the only way of achieving ultimate SR is by going cold turkey and nothing else. Multiple anons have gone on record, myself included, saying this method has helped us where cold turkey hasn't. To discredit us and prevent us from helping others is demonic shill behaviour, you seek only to gatekeep knowledge from people and stop them from ascending. Even if our method was "harmful" to other anons, not only can they just ignore it, but this entire time we've been saying this is an ALTERNATE route, and should be used as a LAST RESORT, meaning you should default to cold turkey first, and only use this method if that proves to be too difficult. Your instant cope after hearing this is always to say "just man up, just push through bro!" but some people struggle more than you do, they can't just "man up" and instead will endlessly bash their head into the wall until they give up and never visit SR again. That's the entire reason these alternate paths exist, to give them a fighting chance. If you call these struggling people weak you are essentially bullying and picking on them, kicking a dog while it's down, someone who is truly trying to help everyone wouldn't do that.

About to turn 26 and I'm feeling really regretful about how long it took me to realize I was being deceived. Imagine how much better I'd be if I figured this out 10 or even 5 years ago. I feel like the absurd amount of time I've wasted being a degenerate coomer, throwing my life essence away, will be a permanent debuff I'll carry with me for the rest of my life. Even if I retain perfectly for the rest of my life, I don't think I'll reach my full potential, physically and spiritually, as I would if I'd been retaining in my teens and early 20s. It's hard to cope with this. Really feeling my own mortality and regretting wasting some of my most important years destroying my body and spirit.
>>40999651Sonny there's anons in our 30s and 40s just barely getting out of this. Personally I'm a 30 something year old loser who lives with my mother. Don't get all emo on me here.Get your mind clear, pray, do some journaling and affirmations and get a 60 day streak going then never look back.
>shilling = anything that destroys my ego>shilling = showing other ways to achieve SRThe only shill here is you, actively seeking to stop Anons from climbing up the SR ladder because it will hurt your feefees. YOU are the one with malicious intent, not me
>>40999324It's gonna get easier, brother. The strictures of discipline are their own rewards.
>>40999651The best time to start anything is right now. The debuff has a timer and as soon as you stop cooming that timer starts ticking down. Don't ever feel bad about being deceived, you are biologically programmed to want to bust, the jew and the succ have hijacked those base urges to line their pockets and steal your essence. Don't let them get away with it anymore.
4 days of semen retention and insufferable flatlining. Balls were glowing blue because had nothing to use energy on and was afraid of them erupting. Decided to relapse just to see how it felt. Usually feels good releasing after a long time but felt dull this time. Although felt really relieving on balls. Did those spaced out stares. Noticed a huge drop in energy, my body feels heavier, and the brainfog came back. Maybe I'll try again when I find something to work on so the energy won't concentrate on my balls. I can handle flatlining but not the balls squeeze. Yes I tried the deep breaths but the blue balls kept coming back because my focus was totally on me.

>>40999651Brother I am 32 and quit for a while I think when I was 26 and it ended up creeping back up on me. I wasted a lot of time, but have also made up for that time. When you really think about it, there are people out there that started marriages or relationships that they had no business being in. They likely fill their time with other wasteful pursuits like watching sportsball etc. There is also a very high chance that they are also using pornography. Most people think that the default state of the human being is to jerk off to porn once per day. Being 26 and understanding this, you are pretty far along. The statistics for onlyfans use by married men or how many pornhub queries there are globally is absolutely insane.Im starting day 1 again tonight, but I chose a very specific video before I relapsed. I went back to one of the first porn videos I remember watching. It did basically nothing for me. Just felt like some sterile viewing. I hope this is a turning point. Made me realize that a big trigger isn't even that I want to jerk off, but instead its the curiosity and novelty. Most of my relapses have been from seeing some video of a hot girl and wanting to see her naked.
>>40999921Go lift. Go for a walk. Read a book. Do anything. Don't dwell on it.
I've quit porn but masturbation is still keeping up.
>>40999507Semen retention is about not wasting the sexual energy. It's only supposed to be used when you're starting a family. If you're planning on having sex, it should be to start a family not play around.
>>41000125Because permissive sexuality has sadly become the norm. Normies (Redditors) have no standards, they roll around in filth and have become so ugly that anytime someone dares to challenge what they perceive as normal they squeal like pigs stuck under a gate as it makes them realise how awful they truly are. They want to drag you down to their level so that they can wallow in their delusions of equality. Demand higher standards for yourself. Do better for yourself.
>>40996303Interesting, I feel like I'm correlating becoming a raging coomer with my hair thinning but I distinctly remember that my hair started thinning once I got into doing it almost daily about 4-5 years ago. Didn't help it was covid times and all the stress as well so it was a good way to get dopamine. It seems like this could be the solution, I mean I have nothing to lose, except my hair which is already thinning anyway. If I make it a bit thicker and grow it a little bit, fine. If not I'll have broken this awful habit. Thanks for your post.
Lost. Was edging to take a picture of my hard dick. (It was day 9.)

>>40996182Day 5 here for a first time attempt at SR. Wow, it's actually insane how difficult it is. Only 5 days and blue balls like never before, a gust of wind could send me over.I can only draw a few conclusions for why it's so difficult for me after just a few short days. 1) I've been weak for a long time and been craving instant dopamine from porn instead of growing my hobbies and passions. Basically haven't been finding healthier sources of dopamine2) I've never actually seen the man who I could become and the potential I could fulfil because I've been jacking it to porn every single day.Damn. Thanks for this thread bros...
>>41000468I have noticed I can get rid of dandruff with shampoo and when I retain it basically stays away without any further treatments. When I goon it flares back up. The active ingredients in most of these shampoos is a zinc compound. Theres a lot of zinc wasted with gooning. I think retaining definitely helps with hair health.Also something I have noticed is some people have reported relapsing from memories of a time they jerked off inside a woman. Don't think I have seen virgin porn users experience this problem. Seems like theres many different trappings at different levels of this game.
>>41000468I'm glad it was of use to someone at the very least. Great perspective on your part. One more thing to note: the receding hairline reverses where it stopped receding. Like a loading bar lol. >>41000576>can get rid of dandruffI honestly just realized I forgot it existed. You're right. >Jerked off inside a woman?
>>41000698Jerking off inside a woman means you used her as a masturbation aid. Sex should be an intimate bond shared between a husband and wife.
>>41000736Thank you. I wasn't sure to assume this.
>>40996182Semen retention works but I just don't have the willpower to override my programming.

>>41001068yes. It's in his autobiography.
>>40999579He's too unstable to be an actual operative. I think he really is a messed up crazy person. He'll mention weening for one sentence, and then go on a screed about empathy, ego, fragile faggots, and samefagging for two paragraphs. Real shills are more under control and stay on point. Maybe someone should pray for this weener and his demons.

So is this basically no fap promotion or do you guys abstain from sex too?

>>41001444trips of truth, fragile closet faggot BTFO
What happens after 12 years of clean SR?
>>41001483Your body reabsorbs its testicles for nutrients i would imagine
>>41001331If you are going to have sex, there are ways to do it without ejaculating. An interesting concept, though, is that since a woman loses her "life force" once a month (the egg expelled through menstruation), then the man can release his life force once per month without catastrophic results [with sexual intercourse; not masturbation]. You still have to build that energy back up, but at least you are not constantly in a net negative state.
>>41000959Shouldn't you know something is wrong down there if it was real? I haven't noticed any problems so far. >>41001029Everything they tell you is bad is actually good
>>41001340>>41001495Catastrophic how? What is your goal through abstaining? >>41001359>But i think shills took over and made it into a weird eunuch thingInteresting. I think making love is good for the soul, but abstaining from porn and masturbation seems like a good goal.
>>41001529>Catastrophic how? What is your goal through abstaining?Catastrophic in that after orgasm, your body produces prolactin for about two weeks, which suppresses testosterone. So if you are ejaculating more often than every two weeks, you are in a constant state of prolactin overdose, and testosterone suppression. The longer the period between releases the better, but if you can at least wait one month, then, you have two weeks of recovery from the two weeks of prolactin surge. That way you are breaking even at least, instead of being constantly in the negative. But breaking even might be worth it to maintain a healthy monogamous relationship. Orgasming every few months or a couple times a year would be better, but women psychologically get off on receiving an ejaculation from the person they are in love with, so you will have to have an understanding with your partner.
>>41001572By the way, my goal is abstaining from ejaculation (except for those three or four times per year), not from sex completely, for said reasons.
>>40997250Sorry fren, was bored and trolling. My longest streak was 100 days and the "magnetism" i got was catching maybe a few girls staring. My streak wasn't completely clean either. Good luck fren. However the interesting thing is that the best methods i found to make money were always on SR. Maybe you get inspired easier or are just smarter? I don't really know.
For anyone struggling with sexual urges, I strongly recommend this energy transmutation/circulation exercise. It seems to have a calming effect and makes the stored up sexual energy less manic and more manageable.
>>40996182day 20 and idk if this is a flatline or whatever but is it normal that I have intense urges to and dont feel like doing anything else all day except for just scrolling my phone or playing gamesIt feels right now that my mind really hates the idea of me doing a source of slower dopamine (such as reading or drawing) and really craves short spikes right now. Is this normal and does it pass soon
>>41001624this is good. i actually was feeling a bit "down" yesterday and I practiced a similar method, and ended up feeling blissful the rest of the day(I say similar method because mine involved "sqeeuzing" the perenium - like you're holding In pee - as you imagine the energy flowing up your spine)
>>41001141It gets easy after two months, but it’s a once a day test of your resolve always.
>>41001644Yep, that's normal. Also, instead of seeking to replace the dopamine hit every time, try focusing on the fact that you are doing the right thing; a healthy thing. Use as a calming exercise sometimes instead of immediately trying to replace the dopamine with exercise or hobbies every single time. It helps me, anyway. Good luck.
>>41001676thanks fren
>>40999356>>40996494>they can’t fathomNo, it’s akin to hamplanets talking about how you can “still have smoothies while you’re fasting”. It’s pathetic, you shouldn’t lie to yourself. You always end up cumming at some point due to the goon sesh, there is never a time when you “wean” off via gooning. You’re either naive to your own demon in your ear or you’re a retarded discord tranny. You, if not already, will fetishize your predicament with the route you’re pretending to take

Feels okay man.The other day the cute Mexican chick working at the salad place recognized me since I hadn't been there in 3-4 months. Felt pretty good.

>>40996494Chapter 12: Beware of Cutting DownMany users resort to cutting down as a stepping-stone towards stopping, or as an attempt to control the little monster. Many recommend cutting down or a ‘porn diet’ as a pick-me-up. Using cutting down as a stepping stone to stopping is fatal. It’s these attempts to cut down that keep us trapped for the remainder of our lives. Generally, cutting down follows failed attempts to stop. After a few hours or days of abstinence the user says something like:“I can’t face the thought of going to sleep without visiting my online harem, so from now on I’ll just use porn once in four days or purge my collection of ‘bad porn’. If I can follow this porn diet, I can either hold it there or cut down even further.”Certain terrible things now happen: 1. They’re stuck with the worst of all worlds, still addicted to internet porn and keeping the monster alive not only in their body, but in their mind. 2. Wishing their life away waiting for the next session. 3. Prior to cutting down, whenever they wanted to visit their harem they’d fire up their browser and at least partially relieve their withdrawal pangs. Now in addition to the normal stresses of life, they’re causing themselves to suffer the withdrawal pangs for most of their lives, which makes them even more miserable and bad-tempered. 4. Whilst indulging, they neither enjoyed most of the sessions nor realized they were using a supernormal stimulus. It was automatic, the only harem visit that was enjoyed was one after a period of abstinence. Now that they wait an extra hour, day, or week for each visit, they ‘enjoy’ each one. The longer waited, the more ‘enjoyable’ each session appears to be, because the ‘enjoyment’ in a session isn’t the session itself — it’s the ending of the agitation caused by the craving — whether slight physical craving or mental moping. The longer the suffering, the more ‘enjoyable’ each session becomes.
>>41002603The primary difficulty in stopping isn’t the neurological addiction, which is easy. Users will stop without difficulty on various occasions — the death of a loved one, family or work affairs, etc. They’ll go, say, ten days without access and it doesn’t bother them. But if they went the same ten days when they could’ve had access to porn, they’d be tearing their hair out.Many users will get chances during their work day and abstain, or they’ll pass through Victoria’s Secret or swimming pools and so on without undue inconvenience. Many will abstain if they have to sleep on the couch temporarily to make space for a visitor, or are themselves visiting. Even in Go-Go bars or nudist beaches there have been no riots. Users are almost pleased for someone or something to say they cannot view porn. In fact, users who want to quit get a secret pleasure out of going for long periods without harem visits, giving them hope that perhaps one day they’ll never want it.The real problem when stopping is brainwashing, an illusion of entitlement that internet porn is some sort of prop or reward and life will never be the same without it. Far from turning you off internet porn, all that cutting down accomplishes is leaving you feeling insecure and miserable, convincing you that the most precious thing on this earth is the new clip you missed, that there’s no way you’ll be happy again without seeing it.There is nothing more pathetic than the user who’s been trying to cut down, suffering from the delusion that the less porn they watch, the less they’ll want to visit their online harem. The reverse is true — the less they watch porn, the longer they suffer withdrawal pangs and the more they ‘enjoy’ the relief of relieving them. However, they’ll notice their favourite genre isn’t hitting the spot. But that won’t stop them: if the tube sites were dedicated to only one star or one genre, no user would ever go more than once.
>>41002621Difficult to believe? What’s the worst moment of self-control one feels? Waiting for four days and then having a climax. Then, what’s the most precious moment for most users on a four-day porn diet? That’s right, the same climax after waiting for four days! Do you really believe that you’re masturbating to enjoy the orgasm, or the more rational explanation that you need to relieve withdrawal pangs under the illusion that you’re entitled to?Removal of the brainwashing is essential to remove illusions about porn before you extinguish that final session. Unless you’ve removed the illusion that you enjoy it before you close that window, there’s no way you can prove it afterwards without getting hooked again. When hovering over bookmarks and saved pictures, ask yourself where the glory in this action is. Perhaps you believe that only certain clips are of good taste, like ones on habitual or favourite themes. If so, why bother to watch other videos or themes? Because you got into the habit? Why would anyone habitually mess up their brain and waste themselves? Nothing is different after a month, so why should a porn clip be any different?You can test this yourself. Find that hot clip from last month to prove it’s different. Then, set a reminder and watch the same clip after a month without porn. It will hit (almost) the same spots as it did last month. The same clip will be different after a social event where you’re turned down or tested by a potential partner. The reason being that the addict can never be fully happy if the little monster remains unsatisfied.Where does satisfaction come into it? It’s just that they’re miserable if they can’t relieve their withdrawal symptoms. The difference between watching porn and not is the difference between being happy and miserable. That’s why internet porn appears to be better. Users who get on their sites first thing in the morning for porn are miserable whether watching it or not.
>>41002241I usually feel my skin getting better no joke when I retain for over 5 days to a week.
Today is my 2nd day, hopefully I will go for 90 days at least.
>>41002627Cutting down not only doesn’t work, but is the worst form of torture. It doesn’t work because initially the user hopes that by getting into the habit less and less, they’ll reduce their desire to watch porn. It’s not a habit, it’s addiction. The nature of any addiction is wanting more and more, not less and less. Therefore in order to cut down, the user has to exercise willpower and discipline for the rest of their lives. So, cutting down means willpower and discipline forever. Stopping is far easier and less painful; there are literally tens of thousands of cases in which cutting down has failed.The problem of stopping isn’t the dopamine addiction, which is easy to cope with. It’s the mistaken belief that porn gives you pleasure, brought about initially by brainwashing received before we started using, further reinforced by the actual addiction. All cutting down does is reinforce the fallacy further, to the extent that porn dominates their lives completely and convinces them that the most precious thing on earth is their addiction.
>>41002634The handful of cases that do succeed have been achieved by a relatively short period of cutting down, followed by going ‘cold turkey’. These users stopped in spite of cutting down, not because of it. All it did was prolong the agony, failed attempts leaving users nervous wrecks and even more convinced they’re hooked for life. This is usually enough to keep them reverting back to their online harem for pleasure and crutch, or at least for another stretch before the next attempt.However, cutting down does help to illustrate the futility of porn, clearly demonstrating that visits to the harem are not enjoyable after periods of abstinence. You have to bang your head against a brick wall (suffer withdrawal pangs) in order to make it nice upon stopping. Therefore, the choices are: Cutting down for life and suffering self-imposed torture, which you’ll be unable to do anyway. Increasingly torturing yourself for life, which is pointless. Being nice to yourself, and cutting porn out altogether.The other aspect that cutting down demonstrates is that there’s no such thing as the odd or occasional harem visit. Internet porn is a chain reaction that will last the rest of your life unless you make a positive effort to break it.Remember: Cutting down will drag you down.

>>41001331It's right there in the name "semen retention".Anything else is libtard bullshit trying to bend the meaning of words.Also I bet there's some backwards people in this thread that think fapping to your imagination and not looking at porn is somehow better than retaining on a dirty streak where you occasionally peek at porn.The name is SEMEN RETENTION. As long as you retain then you win.I'm on Day 70 of a dirty streak and an occasional peek once a week right before bed is the only thing getting me by besides prayer and marking a calendar with big Xs.
>>41002831I should add>yes I know it's possible to have sex without finishing, that's happened to me before. But that has the highest level of risk of you breaking your streak. Also the next day you're gonna want to relive the moment and chase the memories of what happened, a huge risk for relapsing.>I wouldn't recommend peeking to everybody. That works for me because I have a rebellious contrarian personality where the more you try to keep things away from me, the more I push back and fight. So if I feel suffocated because I'm not allowed to look or there's content blockers on my computer, then I'll rail hard against that and do everything I can to get it back. Also I get very tired before bedtime where I don't care about anything anymore and just want to go to sleep, so I can slip in a peek with a lower risk of relapsing than usual. But overall it's risky.
>>41001495Sex is supposed to be a reward mechanism for achieving something physically successful imo, in ancient times imagine coming home from a successful hunt or a pitched battle with your testosterone level maxxed and railing your wife. You'd just normalize. While in our modern sedentary and effeminate society you jump through a bunch of social shit-tests to prove yourself just to get drained of your masculine energy and become hen-pecked over time.
Hey faggots I was always afraid to tell this story because of how cringe I get but I'm going to try to replicate it again because I feel like it has a lot to do with this nevergoon thing for some reason.When I was young, around 16 years old, I tried to meditate just for fun and it worked... at the first attempt I got into a state of conscious lucidity, it was the stupidest thing I ever felt in my life because I will never forget it, I simply decided never to try it because I was afraid of it. It was literally entering the lobby of the fucking fortnite game and the worst thing is that you talked to people and when they answered you it felt like it was coming from them as if something was forcibly sending you that information that was nonexistent to imagine as if it was really happening and it wasn't just in your head, I don't know if I'm making myself clear with this fucking blogpost.these are some things I remember.there was Persian-type music.white people walking around.A bell was constantly ringing.I saw a lot of colors before entering the lobbyAnd I just remember a dark-skinned guy walking towards me but I don't remember anything he said.After that day I could have dreams where I was aware of everything and I could even move around as I pleased and do whatever I wanted, but it only lasted a few weeks.

>>40996711what did you think was going to happen
>>40996182>telepathic bad actors fucking with your dreamsPlease elaborate. Is there no counter?
>>40996494>If you're having trouble not fapping, try fapping!Begone shill
>>41003741As most of us here agree, wet dreams never occur when you want them (unless it's a full moon). Now, if you assume wet dreams are fully within your own imagination only, then it's all fun and games. The possibility that it's not, no matter how low the chances, is there, Often these dreams even portray a situation where it feels like an unknown entity drains you off your energy and after waking up you feel so too. The possibility of another mind being able to enter your dream. A dreamrapist. I'm sure there are others who can explain it in more detail.
>>41003935>>40996182>>What causes wet dreams?>The causes are many: Illnesses, telepathic bad actors fucking with your dreams, excess energy build up, watching too much sexually-inducing stuff, lusting during the day, lack of an adequate transmutation activity, eating too late at night, excess nutrients overall, stimulants like maca, ginseng, ginger, excess protein, excess carbs, tight clothes (pajamas) for bedtime, bad sleeping posture (this varies, find the one that suits you best), going to bed with full bladder, exposure to hormonal disruptors via food (pesticides...) or body care products (soap, deodorant etc)...Only one on the list I suspect could be it is the soap, deodorant one, but I use soap in order to stay clean (staying clean is a big part of why I'm doing this in the first place). It happened in my sleep today even though there were no lustful dreams. This makes me wonder if it's even possible for me to achieve my goals. Honestly I would have better luck escaping from the material world.
>>41003971>As most of us here agree, wet dreams never occur when you want them (unless it's a full moon). Now, if you assume wet dreams are fully within your own imagination only, then it's all fun and games.I would understand your explanation if it was any other incident, but this time the dream had no lustful imagery if there even was one at all. The fact that nocturnal emissions can occur without that condition makes me quite uneasy.>>41003971>Often these dreams even portray a situation where it feels like an unknown entity drains you off your energy and after waking up you feel so too. The possibility of another mind being able to enter your dream. A dreamrapist.Sometimes if I wake up from such a dream even if there's no emissions I still wake up drained. As if loosh farming is happening in real time. Like it goes from some abstract concept to being a part of your life. The worst part is that there's no magical way to lucid dream and get them to go away.
>>41004008>The fact that nocturnal emissions can occur without that condition makes me quite uneasy.Your body does that, it's normal at first because it's adjusting to not having to produce as much semen and getting rid of excess sperm. It's not as bad as releasing consciously and it's not considered a relapse or reset because it's out of your control and unconscious.
I let go of porn accidentally because I have just had other shit to do, but now I feel kinda empty but also I'm not horny at all so I guess I'll keep living without porn because it's just a waste of time. Noticed this thread here just now.
>>41004008>but this time the dream had no lustful imagery if there even was one at all.That's why I said 'if'. I believe (wet) dreams are far from our imagination. >Sometimes if I wake up from such a dream even if there's no emissions I still wake up drainedMakes one wonder what part of the semen being drained is their drug. What I mean here is that there's a possibility the essence is not the semen as a whole, but a part of it that gets added during the maturation process. Why don't we get wet dreams 1 or 2 days after gooning? Why does it take a few weeks? The semen is there, but something is maybe missing?
>>41004057Really makes me wonder if we are being loosh farmed. It seems like the circle of life has a lot more steps in the process than previously assumed. I had a thought at one point that theoretically death is only evil because of life, but life can be evil even without death. Imagine being imprisoned somewhere forever. That is what eternal life could mean. If total death was achieved and all life was terminated all suffering would cease.
>>41004057>>41004069It's literally your body getting rid of excess stored in the nuts it's not that deep. The body adjusts after a while and nocturnal emissions go away
>>41004074Could you share your personal experiences or more specifically how long it took to get the emission rate to zero.
>>41004090Im happy to share my experience with NE's, to the best of my recollection. From what I remember, at around the 2 week mark i would get strong urges and lustful thoughts which would result in an NE. The dreams would either be sexual or not, or I wouldn't remember so i have no way of knowing. I think then after a while they go away, as the lustful thoughts go away. When the lustful thoughts dissipate so does the semen production so your nuts are less full and there's less likely of an NE to occur. I remember one week though I was having them every two days or so, despite being on like a 2-3 month streak. I think this was happening because i wasn't transmuting the sexual energy correctly, example i wasn't meditating correctly nor lifting weights. The highest streak ive ever gotten was about 5 months. I don't remember the frequency of the NE's at this point though. I started keeping track of them, so in the coming weeks and months ill try and give more info about them. I also was not peaking at porn during this streak, but ofc, as you know the nature of 4chan there is still sexually suggestive images even on safe boards. As of right now though im only on day 4 and have not had an NE during this time.
>>41004232>there is still sexually suggestive images even on safe boardsI guess it's just not easy in the modern day. Thanks for sharing though.

>>41004350One knows they've passed when they pay no mind and not even expand the image. There's no such thing as "just one peek" after all. Also, you're a nigger.
day 4. I like going to /a/ to look at the buyfag threads but im gonna have to stop. Also fasted for 24 hours
>>41002689Is it an edit of the cigarette book?
thought I broke my streak but it was just a big load of precum. the streak continues
>>41004409If you edged then you broke your streak.
>>41004414I did not touch my dick though
>>41004392Yes it is. I could barely last 2 days without insane urges, but after listening to it on youtube it's literally changed my whole perspective and I have no urges on day 6 so far. Sure, that's not very far, but I can tell I'm a changed man now. For anyone struggling, please read it online for free or listen to the audio book. It could change your fucking life.
>>41004416What happened exactly? If you are consciously awake and have a boner and then pre cum that means you are entertaining lustful sexual thoughts. Unless this happened when sleeping in which case not that big a deal
>>41004423>If you are consciously awake and have a boner and then pre cum that means you are entertaining lustful sexual thoughtsYeah, that’s what happened. But I don’t think it really counts, because practicing visualization is completely different from watching porn on a screen. With visualization, I’m actually building new neural connections instead of just zoning out in front of a computer and draining my brain’s grey matter like a zombie

>>41004069>>41004057>>41004008Interesting. I did some sexual activity this past week and then the following night I had a dream where my distant female cousin, which is an attractive woman, met me and jumped at me with full lust, mounting at me and kissing all over my body etc. Surprisingly, I didn't react emotionally at all and did not get interested in reciprocating. Then my "cousin" suddenly put her mouth on my cheek like a lamprey and became completely immobile... a very bizarre situation. Then after a while the dreaming scenery changed and other things happened, but when I woke up I vividly remembered this encounter. J van Rijckenborgh said that in this age we're in the demons/spirits are so close to us and are so big in number and harass us with such mettle that a mystic in the last centuries would not have thought this possible. A sad situation indeed.
>>41004495>>41004506There are no concrete laws on how semen retention should be practiced and what counts and doesn't count as a broken streak.
>>41004517If you wanna goon to your own fantasies go ahead but stop calling it SR.
>>41004517The point is to bring and transmute the sexual energy to your higher mental faculties, not down to your lower chakra. >you released fluid while conscious>you relapsed
>>41004554actually you're supposed to edge a little and before actually orgasming, you're supposed to pull that energy up your spine and let the cum bathe your brain. you cant do that without a form of edging and visualization seems to be the most natural route
My Brothers, some of you have been caught by the glowie cognito hazards in this thread arguing about things that aren't going to help you. I respect that you're passionate enough to fight the shills but that doesn't help. Ignore them. Hide the posts and keep walking the path. Now, for the Brothers getting bogged down in what SR is or isn't, there are levels to this;Level 1: Breaking the habit. This is the base level which you should be trying to achieve if you're just starting. The goal should be reducing your masturbation from once or more than once a day to once a month and breaking free from the jewish porn spiral, increasing your T and resilience to an overly sexualised world. You should be channelling your extra energy into physical pursuits, hobbies, lifting, art, automotive maintenance, anything that keeps your hands away from your dick. Idle hands are the devil's plaything. Sex with a love bonded partner is acceptable but don't be a fucking degenerate about it, SR is a tool for restoring healthy sexual urges.Level 2: Testing your spirit. This level is all about taking that one month streak to a two month streak and beyond. You are now testing your resilience and spirit. The goal hasn't changed but you have. Set new personal bests and strive to beat them. Continue channelling your extra energy into physical pursuits.Level 3: The monk. Getting to level 3 is hard, not as hard as beginning to walk the path but it is hard. This level is about keeping streaks for as long as possible and using the resilience you have learned on the path to practice the metaphysical arts and increase your spiritual power. The goal is the same, retain your seed and retain your essence but you are now channelling your essence into things that defy classification and scientific understanding. Use your power for benevolent change in yourself and the world around you. Find a level that suits you and strive for it. Discipline is a beautiful thing and will make you a better man.
>>41004593I'm headed for Level 3. Also thank you for putting effort into this post.

In Bliss of the Celibate the author explains that as you forgo sexual desire and conserve your pearls as he puts it, you gain spiritual powers. Sort of like compound interest in the stock market, except in the "bank" of spirituality. Can someone more knowledgeable on the topic explain how this works please. You'll be rewarded with my gratitude and an internet hug.
>>41004593Based post. After 3 years of SR I'm stepping into level 3. It is hard because you have to do more than just SR: bouts of fasting, suppress ego, avoid any form of indulgence, and really try to purify yourself. But you get actual results and its initially mind blowing.>>41004687>break the backs of the porn jewsThats funny because just as practice of the "metaphysical arts" you described, since the beginning I've been praying / meditating on producing a "Comical End to the Jew World Order" and I have to be honest I think its actually working. If anyone else wants to join me, maybe we can accelerate, just set an intention at the beginning / end of every day for God / the universe / whatever to unravel zionism and to make it funny and entertaining.
>>41004836>But you get actual results and its initially mind blowingCan you describe some of them to serve as motivation for others please
>>41004775Not exactly related to your post but...Sri Bhagavan warned the hearers against the mistake of disparaging a jnani for his apparent conduct and again cited the story of Parikshit. He was a still born child. The ladies cried and appealed to Sri Krishna to save the child. The sages round about wondered how Krishna was going to save the child from the effects of the arrows (apandavastra) of Asvattama. Krishna said, “If the child be touched by one eternally celibate (nityabramachari) the child would be brought to life.” Even Suka dared not touch the child. Finding no one among the reputed saints bold enough to touch the child, Krishna went and touched it, saying, “If I am eternally celibate (nityabramachari) may the child be brought to life.” The child began to breathe and later grew up to be Parikshit.Just consider how Krishna surrounded by 16,000 gopis is a brahmachari! Such is the mystery of jivanmukti! A jivanmukta is one who does not see anything separate from the Self. - From Spiritual stories told by Ramana Maharshi
>>41004836>Comical End to the Jew World OrderI'm adding this to my prayers. The jew has co-opted Christianity and Catholicism for far too long. Especially in the US, where AG preachers have used pro-israel messaging to curry favour with jew compromised politicians. Far too many shepherds leading their flocks astray.
>>41004775When you forgo sexual desire, you build self-discipline against one of nature's strongest animal impulses. Once you conquer that, its easier to use that discipline to conquer other animal impulses, such as eating, status-seeking, hoarding, etc. As you become less animal, you become more spiritual. Obviously you have to eat and live your material life, so celibacy / fasting etc. are not Good or Bad, they're just tools to move you more towards the spiritual side of the spectrum.
>>41004495What makes you think it is not the Weener still?

>>41004845Well just to expand on the jew thing, since I began going hard spiritually (September 2022) we've seen:>october 7th and israel taking the mask off>"The Noticing" reaching all-time highs every day>main stream media figures calling out the israel lobby>the epstein shit and the Trump admin's hilarious attempts to cover it up>prominent podcasters going deep into satanic sabbatean/frankist judaism>the "Tunnel Jew" fiasco in 2024>"early-lifing" becoming a normie skill>absolute failure to start iran war>normie-tier youtube academics (Pr. Jiang) doing videos on jewish child sacrificeI can't say I'm responsible, but its developing a lot like I've been asking for. Just as a counter-reference, Jews themselves believe this practice is real, so much so that hasidic jews are exempt from military service because : "Prayer is a branch of the military". And obviously they are praying for world domination as per their scripture memes, but also obviously they are far from being spiritually pure. So I'd really like to see if a couple more anons who take this seriously would meditate on a hilarious collapse of zionism, if we could make it happen more. Can't ask for any harm or TKD - too much karma involved. Just make it funny.I could give other (non-JQ-related) examples if anyone is interested, but there is a lot: synchronicities, signs from God, "knowledge-downloads", getting things manifested and then experiencing karmic blow back, getting rekt from indulging (usually food related).

>>40996182Relapsed yesterday after almost a week. Got so disgusted with myself that I deleted an account I had on a site for literally 10 years. Maybe some Christian SR/NF anons can help me out with this, but I feel like there’s parallels between 2 Cor. 10:5 (“ Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ”) and the benefits of a “clean streak” where you’re weaning yourself off even having pornographic thoughts. My question is, aside from the obvious truth that “they’ll happen the longer you deprive yourself of gooning”, how do you exactly “take thoughts captive” to where your efferent nerves aren't spending too much energy? Even non Christian responses would be appreciated since it seems like it’s as much a mental/physical issue as much as it is spiritual.
>>40997908The usefulness of being attractive goes WAAAAAAAY beyond just getting sex. People treat you differently, you can get promoted at work much more frequently, finding jobs becomes easier. Hell you can even start your own cult. This is the real power of NoFap’s magnetism.

>>40999507I have a girlfriend who, when I'm with her, drains my cum daily. We're long distance most of the time, so it's easier to do without when we part. My biggest reason for abstaining is purely spiritual for religious reasons.
>>41005279maybe meditation, I struggle with intrusive thoughts as well but have never tried meditationnow that my mind has cleared up (about a month SR) I can exercise greater control of my thoughts but I am thinking meditation is the logical next step
>>40996205This.
>>41005279The only good Christian method I could find is Meister Eckhart's idea of "detachment". Basically treat intrusive thoughts like unwanted guests. Don't fight them head on. Let them pass or ignore them, redirect them whenever it's easy. Every other Christian method involves high-stakes FIGHTING with all your thought capacity and praying the rosary until the attack is over. It's too exhausting so for us low energy anons Eckhart way is best.
>go outside>women in tight clothes>women in booty shorts>women in yoga pants>scantily clad women everywhereAvoiding porn is just one battle apparently
I recently did one year nofap (42yo), it was a bit tricky at first but got easier over time. Now a year later I very rarely crank one out. Noticeable gains in all sorts of ways, my dick is rock hard, I can fuck my girl like a God, I have more confidence, absolutely would recommend. I used to beat my shit like it owed me money and several people in my circle are amazed I pulled it off. Would recommend if you want to bolster your fortitude.

>>41004232Something that I haven't seen posted here is emissions outside of nocturnal emissions. I am manic/depressive (bipolar disorder) so basically on the schizophrenia spectrum. I believe people dealing with similar disorders including epilepsy experience basically a thinning of the spiritual veil. I have only had a few very serious manic episodes. One thing that stands out is that I would be maybe a few weeks into SR, a couple days fasting, spiritual veil would feel very thin with the holy spirit more present, but it seems like every time I would have seminal discharge while peeing. No sexual thoughts or looking at sexual material or sexual touching and it would still leave my body.Very weird experience but it has happened maybe like 3-4x and never in any other scenarios where i have been like 90 days SR. The gift of grace is free through Christ and we don't even have to go this deep into everything, but there is clearly something going on here with SR and some of the supporting texts like old levitical law on how to deal with emissions. SR isn't going to buy your way into heaven, but charging sigils and stuff with spilled semen sounds like a dangerous game. Tons of regret from all the lust I have allowed myself to be caught up in.
>>41007058>Jesus was an empath who helped the misunderstood, where no one else would>I am an empath, who is helping the misunderstood, where no one else will (that's you fyi)It's okay for this comparison to be drawn. Keep coping and seething while I help those who you believe to be beneath you. They will achieve SR and there's nothing you can do about it, shill.

its just a bunch of monkeys arguing about stupid shit. theres no wisdom left in these threads. its time for me to move on. good luck for the serious ones
Brothers, this back and forth about how you should follow the path and fighting about who's a shill is unbecoming of you. These threads should be about supporting your Brothers and elevating each other to be better than we once were. If you disagree with your Brothers, then you must afford them civility and respect to foster strong and robust discussion. Detractors and glowies will make themselves known and they should be ignored so that we can enjoy comfy SR with frens. We may differ in our methods but the goal is always the same; break the habit and transcend our base instincts. We are all going to make it.
>>41004664A 50 year old told me that when he was young, 2 guys in his city would purchase porn tapes in bulk and start screening them for money in their house in exchange for money. He told me that there were at least 10 guys there every time he went and some of them would start masturbating right there lmao. Even 20 years ago you could still find small street kiosks around here that had 1 dedicated side to porn mags, everyone could see them through the window, weird stuff.
>>41007536They want to behave like beasts without self-control, because they got baited into it. Several people have warned like you have, but they will never listen. They shit up the thread to the bump limit so some faggot (not me anymore, ever) can bake a new one. No baker doing this practice will ever keep it up, because of the practice. At some point you can't fool yourself on how much time you waste by creating a new bread here every day, reading the discussion between some newbie retainer and a professional gooner. For the retards:This practice isn't hard at all. It just requires discipline. Time will fix it if you put your mind to it. Discipline is obviously lacking in a lot of people here. It's really not that fucking hard to not touch your dick, not reply to a shill or not to fucking stab your own eyes out. You just choose. You know? Those fucking things you did that got you here in the first place. If you have trouble doing this, then you need to learn discipline first. Something your parents/rolemodels forgot to teach. There's absolutely 0 reason to keep this general up.
>>41007536Mr Ego doesn't want to admit that there's more than 1 solution to a problem. That's not my fault.I obviously have the best intentions in mind for Anons when I make my posts, contrary to what some might think. Disagree with me? That's fine, don't care, just don't drag other Anons down with you because you can't handle being wrong.
>>41000125SR can't be bought with money so they don't like it. You can't compete against people with money for upvotes. It requires hard work and there isn't a shortcut. Also j*ws are afraid of real men so they use their demonic golem magic to curse people here who share their updates on feeling stronger. Then there's w*tches who use their curses on us because they worship n*ggers and think SR is white supremacy.
I believe there's a connection between (psuedo)-intellectualism and lust. It was revealed to me that a lot of my vain intellectual pursuits were, among other things, veiling my lust. However, below the abstinence from watching porn and masturbation, I still have the desire to. And according to Saint Aquinas, it's actually worse to have these desires than it is to fornicate because they're more unnatural. Please pray for me!
>>41007683What do you mean? Sorry I’m a bit slow.
>>41007613You need to be dragged through streets of broken glass and dirty needles. Stop posting here. Forever. You haven’t helped a single anon here and you need more help than any of us. Kys. Today.
>>41007687I'm still discovering this, but there's a connection between intellectualism (the pursuit of ideas) and lust. Ultimately, I think it serves as distraction or rationalization.
>>41007749Hmm this is definitely an interesting idea (lol).The sexual union is ultimately good (within the bounds of a marriage for the purpose of procreation or marital bonding) and lust is an abominated version of and undue attraction to that good.If there’s a connection between that and intellectualism, then pseudo intellectualism is an abominated version of and undue attraction to ‘proper’ intellectualism which would be the good and productive counter to pseudo intellectualism.My question is where is the boundary between the real and the pseudo when it comes to intellectualism.
>>41007764Off topic (lol)Stop being a clown (lol)Nofap threads aren’t for discussing basic ass philosophy (lol)Nigger (lol)
>>41007683I don’t know about saints but I do feel painfully aware of how god shows favour to those who act decisively with their hearts. I wish a wasn’t such a below average, hyper conscious and lazy schemer.
This isn't a nofap thread, sparky. Go make one if you want.
>>41007819Bad bot.
How about nobody makes a new thread and let the guys constantly replying to the shills put their gay ass to work? Yes, I know, they could be part of the shills as they need someone to reply to. Still it's a lesson to learn for every retarded newfag thinking they're saving the world by correcting retarded coomers.
>>41007717I'll pray for you, since you clearly have issues.
>>40996494Holy based
>>41007846You’re the only one encouraging anons to have more issues here. It’s time to stop. Gain some self awareness. Reflect. Think about your life and why you’re really here.

>>41007846>>41007849You’re trying too hard Moshe.
Did some kegels today.Also did 10 minutes of kundalini awakening exercise.
>>41007850>You’re the only one encouraging anons to have more issues here. It’s time to stop. Gain some self awareness. Reflect. Think about your life and why you’re really here.The mother of all projections - the postI will pray for you, lost soul
>>41007866I’m praying for your eyes to be plucked out by vultures so you can’t harass anons here anymore and try to make them relapse.
>>41007862stuff like this really helps me, too. Also just flexing all the muscles in my body while forcefully exhaling, and repeating that a few times is good because i can do it while driving and i don't have to worry about feeling too relaxed or drowsy. i feel like kicking ass.
>>41007862What's your longest streak now?
>>41007840>l-l-lets just stop making threads! That’ll show the shills!Great idea, tripfag, let’s just stop posting! You first.
>>41007840Then the weener will make one and samefag up his own ass like the massive hemorrhoid he is.
>>41007876I will pray for you, despite your disgusting transgressions. I forgive all shills who seek to harm Anons here, even those with massive egos, and are in the process of having a mental breakdown.Jesus loves you.
>>41007882My longest streak ever was 72 days in 2023.My longest streak this year was 49 days.Day 2 today, lost a 9 day streak just before that (no porn).
>>409964943 month weener chad reporting in, fuck the shills.
So many prayers. Everyone is blessed.
>>41007889Doesn't it bother you that the length decreases by the year? Have you figured out why?
>>41007890you self-identify as a 'weener'? interesting
>>41007903that's what you shills keep calling it so I don't care, we all know you're full of shit anyway
>>41007890>Ahem...>It's for you
>>41007894In 2024 my best streak was 28 days, so it has improved from then.In 2023 most of my 72 days streak was when I was in a psychiatric hospital and decided not to fap (almost two months there). No internet, no temptation. I ended the streak when I got out. I regret that.
>>41007916Do you feel this general is useful to you in your progress? Aside from using it as a journal/calendar.
>>41007932It is useful to post my streak and feel motivated.Also good to share transmutation tips and benefits report.
>>41007507>>41007840It works like picrel.The amount of negative interest SR attracts would be an indicative of how important it is for the corresponding interested parties to keep it out of the spotlight, if that isn't an indicative of its importance and is not reason enough to try to keep it going, then I don't know what is.>>41007886It's easy to spot it, they always leave out the op all the information that might skew his attempts at controlling and diluting the purpose of the general. People should pay attention to that and refuse to engage in the new thread if it's lacking information.And stop engaging, just report, ignore and hide.
>>41007982I'm glad to read that.>>41007991>It works like picrel.You're right. However, I'm not sure whether there should be put an effort to correct these interests or ignore them.
>>41008008To some extent you have to correct them, because otherwise the sneakier ones continue to post their nonsense and new people can’t tell the difference between good advice and shill advice that is designed to make them fail.
i promise i won't respond to weener next thred
>>41008032Me too.
we reached the bump limit with like 10 serious posts ITT... amazing
Medium rare thread awaits!>>41008073>>41008073>>41008073
Do i get astral projection abilities after the 90 day mark? Or 200 day mark?
>finally admits that his ego was out of control and he will stop trying to harm anons nowYou finally saw the light, good for you
>>41008177fuck you asshole
>>41007764The end, right? Either it directed toward the purpose of serving the Lord or it is not. If it is not directed toward the Lord, it is directed towards Satan.
>>41007785First of all, capitalize that "g" in God. Secondly, are you a NEET? I was, I have a part time job now and it's brought me much clarity. Manual labor is the best, but right now I'm not working manually.
>>41008185The anger will subside soon, you are on the right path now.
>>41008211I bet you lose it whenever you read g*d on this website.
>>41007539I bet men weren’t coomers like this en masse pre 60s. They really intensified the demoralization on society, gen x didn’t stand a chance
>>41007683These shill posts are getting way more potent you almost gotta start respecting it
>>41007536The irony here though is the person who is suggesting "weening" is almost definitely not a shill and is an organic user. He just doesn't get that he is mistaken in his approach. The people who are saying his approach is counter productive are also not shills. His method will make things far more difficult than directly cutting the habit out for as long as possible.Again this is because if you continuously relapse early on in the streaks you are not giving enough time to reset your biology increasing the odds you stay in a prolonged cycle of streaks that are only week or less. As you get increasingly farther from day 1 on a streak, your feel good chemicals are more balanced out, stimuli is not as triggering, & random urges to indulge are naturally lessened. It worked for him but he actually made it harder and succeeded anyway. All I can tell people is the longer you go the easier it is. I've been practicing SR for almost a decade now and am nearly at a 3 year streak. I legit can't even remember the last time I watched pornographic material but that wasn't a problem as it never really did anything for me as I far preferred actual intercourse.
>>41007336I feel like this is one of the major things that seperates the retards and nonretards of the world. People would rather feel anything, even if that feeling is pure shit, than nothing . A truly calm, happy, and wise person is okay with whatever feeling they are feeling in the moment and this satisfaction leads to generally higher states of mind even if starting at lower levels because of inevitable things like painful situations. Basically the way to think about it is; nothing is permanent, and when things change (bad things happen, good things go away) it can cause pain, and anything that causes pain should not be allowed to make you care
>>41007852All this is true and happened to me too
