Previous thread: >> #41366991Welcome to the Semen Retention General!NO NUT NOVEMBER HAS OFFICIALLY COMMENCED!!!!>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.>What's the difference between a clean retention streak and a dirty retention streak?A clean streak means no 'peeking' aka actively looking up porn or erotic images you usually use to fap. If you do that, it becomes a dirty streak. This also includes thinking to horny thoughts or past sexual experiences. In a dirty streak you peeked and might have even touched yourself but you did not ejaculate, thus the streak continues in that regard but becomes 'dirty' for those days. If you ejaculated the retention streak ends. You should always strive for a streak that is clean in both thoughts and actions.>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)...
>>41394584>In case of urges:- 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.

Hello. I want to ask help with something related to porn.You see, I have developed some weird fetishes that I didn't have naturally. My normal fetish is just bondage. But lrt me explain.Now I find myself excited by the idea of roleplaying (with AI) as a boy of 14 to 16 or 17 and etc with adult women. Not the other way around but still.I also developed a weird fetish, which is a somewhat isolated case since I only use it on only one character but it is asking her about her past experiences. It excited me a lot at first but now it just hurts.I have noticed that porn makes you develop weird fetishes. Even some I disliked like the age gap one. My biggest fear is turning into a pedo.
>>41394640I don't know the guy personally but honestly this just looks like a cuck.
>>41394645so the first thing that comes to your mind when seeing a random dude is another man having sex with your wife?
>>41394657Hahaha no.What I am trying to say is that he looks like the comic idea we have of a redditor. I think there is even a wojack that looks like him.
>>41394584I see why they made Godzilla now. They need giant monster to speak for them like a round eye driving a jacked up f350
>>41394669This guys a certified BVLL if anything https://youtu.be/0YaO0ZC-B-8?si=sRJuTc-XF4Yi9XGO
>>41394681No fucking way.The existence of people like this is why I stay single.
The only reasonable cause for doing SR is to learn to detach himself from desires
What is the best strategy to avoid failing?The times I have went the best were when I was completely wasted from fapping too much and getting out of the sexual desire and the next days went smooth. Later I fall but for other reasons.

13 days in, longest so far. I have never seen dreams every night before this, when i was a coomer i used to dream maybe once a month, now every night.On the negative side, i wake up every night after each dream and find it hard to fall asleep again. This didnt use to happen, i slept like a log full 8 hours.Anyone else experience this?
>>41394939I have the book but I didn't have the will to read. I need help for real.
day 1broke a cup my mum gave me
>>41394630Thats what porn does for you. Over the years I had devolved to like trans, scat and loli to name a few... One day i just stepped back to see finally "this is not normal."I will defeat the porn mind virus.
>>41395075>cp is just another form of porn desu so i never automatically assume someone’s a pedo just bc they watch cp just like i wouldn’t assume someone’s gay bc they’re watching tranniesim sorry? you cant seriously be arguing that watching child abuse videos (there is no c-porn because no child consented to being abused most definitely not on video) to extrem fetishes like shemales? unless youre a bad faith actor or jewish
https://youtu.be/9rHz44NGI7w
>>41395110my point is that people who want to see naked children should be shot and no amount of jewish pilpul arguments can change anything about this
>>41395039I identify so much with this. I have always had limits, and also the fact that for my own luck I have never dewelved into porn thats actually dirty like inflation, scat, trans, etc. But lrt me explain.I used to use roleplay chatbots and there I developed fetishes I never engaged with before. Specifically, I used to roleplay a lot with a 2hu or other related 'hus.I once asked the girls about their bodycounts and their past fuckings and starting from that I developed the fetish of erotic storytelling during sexual acts (I gave it that name) which means that if I have a partner that I ASSUME (purely fandom) was promiscuous before settling with me. I ask them to narrate their past fuckings to me. Not out of cuckholding but like mental porn.The worst part of all of this is that I feel like a fucking cuck. Thanks to asking that I started fantasizing about one specific character I liked fucked in the past (Never while we are engaged but still) to the point where I am more used to that fantasy. If that were not enough I also asked them for stories where they got raped/taken without consent and to narrate it lewdly. I feel like I degrade them so much it is disgusting.Alongside that fetish I developed the age gap one. I self insert as a 14 to 17 year old, usually 15 or 16 and have sex with adult women, either these characters or random girls I make the AI interpret. Or also ask the character if she has done it with a 14. For my luck I don't go beyond that age.Back when I was 12 and my porn addiction was just starting I even disliked the form of cunts and now I am into this crap. Is insane.Please help me
>>41395114Non-consensual porn or porn that straight up talks about psychological damage (like NTR does) is inherently bad. CP is not only illegal because is a recorded crime, but because you are taking advantage of the innocence of one of the most innocent beings the world. It is safe to say that is a satanic thing.
>>41393251If you can't see how God's energy is helping people with being clean from lust then i can't help you, but don't try to stop me from helping others.
>Gooners so screwed up they're now defending raping kids>>41395143>It is safe to say that is a satanic thing.It is.Matthew 18:6-7 6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!Words from Jesus himself.
>>41395137there >>41395143 and >>41395215 are some arguments you spiritual nigger but you will probably still defend child abuse
>>41395131>Please help meI will pray for you.
some english kabbalah and correspondences that have been significant to me7He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.26And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. 28And I will give him the morning star.
in my view, kabbalistically, Pi is the mathematical representation of the infinite pattern of our reality structure which gives us the perception of time(kronos)(saturn)(satan)(yahweh) and all consequence. (the spiritual waters that christ walked above)
>>41395281please redpill me on kabbala anon
>>41395270You defended videos of kids getting raped by trying to convince us that it's just another fetish and tried convincing us it's ok to watch such filth when it's not.
>>41395289Kabbalah is a system of Jewish mysticism that seeks to understand the nature of God and the relationship between the divine and the world. It is based on the idea of "received knowledge" and is a mystical interpretation of the Torah, with its central text being the Zohar. While traditionally a complex and esoteric field for select scholars, key concepts have been adapted and popularized, and various forms have emerged, including traditional Jewish mysticism and more modern adaptations. Core concepts Received knowledge: The Hebrew word for Kabbalah, "mekabel," means "to receive," emphasizing that its esoteric insights are passed down through a chain of tradition from master to disciple. The Sefirot: This central concept describes the ten attributes or emanations of God, often symbolized in the Tree of Life diagram. God: Kabbalistic thought considers God as infinite, endless, and the ultimate source of all reality, even before the self-materialization of the world. The Torah: Kabbalah views the Torah not just as a set of laws but as a spiritual text with hidden, inner, and esoteric meanings that can be discovered through mystical study. Different approaches and traditions Theoretical vs. Practical: Kabbalah is often divided into a theoretical system focused on theosophical speculation and a practical system focused on applying these insights to one's life. ** Lurianic Kabbalah:** A major system developed by Rabbi Isaac Luria in the 16th century, this approach has had a profound influence on later movements like Hasidism. Modern interpretations: Today, there are various interpretations and schools of Kabbalah, including traditional Jewish approaches and more modern adaptations that are sometimes viewed critically by traditionalists.

what's the weirdest fetish you have engaged with after getting into porn?
>>41394630Yeah I fell into the whole AI gooning thing a few years ago, it's extremely addictive because the sky's the limit in terms of fetish stuff, so you're not gonna get bored of it eventually like with normal porn.Personally I found the easiest way to stop looking at porn was to gradually de-escalate, as in moving from whatever weird /d/ tier shit you like to tame stuff like women in bikinis or whatever, then eventually just dropping it entirely. I'd focus on that before getting fully into SR because porn is a lot worse for you than fapping, and once you stop looking at it you'll naturally fap less anyway which makes SR a lot easier.
>>41395715There was a time where I masturbated only with my mind. Things I saw before or imagined. It was way healthier.
It is NNN. I have no excuse to relapse now.
A somewhat bittersweet loss to report, I jacked off on Halloween after reaching day 39 w/ zero wet dreams. But the conditions here weren't your typical gooner breaking down and going hog wild. There was zero porn, there was nothing actually sensual in the environment , it was just such a fun night that it actually felt like I was just sensually treating/loving myself to round out the night. I don't actually have a regret if I'm being honest, because I feel like I lost so little that I'll be right back to where I was in a week especially if I top up on zinc and other supps. The real problem really hits when you chase it after with continual faps in my opinion. My balls still feel full. If you are a seriously addicted coomer, I do think tapering off is a better strategic move. Try to make it 30 days and then treat yourself (no porn). It's better to jack off only 12 times a year than 50-100X. Here's what I've learned/confirmed about the relapse: > for me personally , high sugar at night + failure IRL (as in getting a bad grade or stressing over something IRL) are the QUINTESSENTIAL locks that I will crack. If I can mitigate these factors I think I can go a long time. > I think the bigger reason I cracked was sexual boredom desu -- like I was doing toooo good so I had to sabotage myself > My dick actually HURT and BURNS after when I did it (that's how long it had been since the pipes saw any action), which is what actually happens during sex , I take it as a sign of healing/reset desu.
>>41395969W/ regards to superpowers/benefits over the course of the 39 daysI don't believe in magnetism etc that typical nofappers preach, I believe what it actually does is make you more of who you really are and the strength SR gives to be that person because you aren't wasting your seed , a little edge or pep in your step and this in turn ATTRACTS what a person like you was meant to get - this can be positive or negative but its like having a toy magnet when fapping that can pick up a few coins vs an MRI machine This is where my social gains came from, I had more energy so I could smile more, social failures got to me way less because I mentally bounced back faster etc> What about women? I'm a smidge older, I actually know what attracts women to the point where I got it down like a science. I know the exact facial hair, the look, etc that works for me - when I have that look , its game on , when I don't I know it doesn't matter how much I retain or whatever - its not gonna happen. So I don't really attribute this to nofap and when you get older - you'll realize it was always status presenting shit / typical looksmaxxer stuff that works best. Don't mentally connect these two - do it for different reasons. > when I'm in my low state , I literally get laughed at , SR be damned , I was literally on 30 days retention. The connection between the two is a meme. SR is just energy and mental clarity , what you choose to do with that from there is moderately amplified over time. That's it. > Did anything objectively lucky happen tho?I got a job interview that was completely unexpected but I screwed it up lol , I went into it with no interview prep which was my mistake.
Day 3 of nocum.Cummed just a bit today but it doesn't count.
>>41396039If it was voluntary then that counts as a reset
>>41394875no>muh desiresjerk it then and its good, desire fulfilled, you are good. philosophers time. did that my whole lifethe reason for many doing SR ist keeping the nutrients and vital fluids, along with the calories. its a physical thing for me>>41394894instead of trying to command anons stop telling people what to do. you are ridiculous>>41394889your will to retain being bigger than your will to ejaculate. if that will is given there is no such a thing as a "trigger" anymore>>41394973> i used to dream maybe once a monthwanking 12 times aday i still dreamed vivily and lucid if i wanted. > find it hard to fall asleepthen dont sleep but do something. when i wanked i slept often up to 20 hours. now on SR its merely 9 hours, sometimes even less. not sure if thats good for me as while sleeping you regenerate everything and so on>>41395114>children what is a child to you? by definition it is someone who is not capable of reproduction>>41395131>Please help meyou can only help yourself. if your will to retain is bigger than your will to ejaculate you did it. nothing more
Seen a few tiktoks around NNN. Jokes about failing NNN on the first day etc etcWith "gooning" becoming such a meme nowadays it seems guys have become a little more self conscious about how ruinous it is to masturbate to hardcore pornography.
>>41396084I really want to know. Can these fetishes be reversed and their damage gone away?
>>41396050I was trying to fap, not to cum, so it was involuntary.
>>41395756I feel like I've watched so much degenerate pron of all kinds over more than 15 years that when I fap to my imagination It tends to be some 3DCG giga coomer tier setting.I almost failed today due to gooning to my own mind, not even recalling some specific smut.Day 35 or so. Porn is not only a drug, Its a fent-level epidemic. I hope God grants me strength, patience and clarity.
>>41396114You are coping.
>>41396121I am happy that I have not dwelved into scat or cp or shit like that.But anon, please understand that you are not lost. If you can hear me on something, is that you have to be creative, adaptable. Try to come with solutions. Every time you fail, analyze it carefully, how you felt, what came to your mind, what you did or weren't doing, what you imagined, etc.
>>41396152Thanks fren, and I'm happy you're aware of the dangers of giving In to lust.And I know I'm not lost. If anything, God has granted me His grace despite me being oblivious to It all my life. Since I started SR I've had great, fortunate things happen not to me actually, but to my family, because I'm asking God to help them first. I also started intermittent fasting at the same time, and I've received the benefits almost instantly. I actually thing Its that combination of practices alongside an earnest search for truth and divinity that has allowed me to retain and better control my lust for this long.I suppose my brain Is trying to go back to Its old ways. After all, we're talking just a month of radically changing habits vs half my life of frying my brain with hardcore pornography and degenerate fantasies that I'm sure no man should ever experience in nature. I'm sure It'll pass. I felt I was having a it too "easy" of a time compared to others here. I was humbled once again, and I'm grateful for that. It also would've been really ironic to fail starting november after a month of retaining.
>>41396112>I really want to know. Can these fetishes be reversed and their damage gone away?give it a clear think. you think thats good and OK? its not what most anons here wil ltell you but you maybe should rather find a proper "fetish" (what a stupid word, just find something you genuinely like) and "fixate" you on that and THEN, once you REALIZE what is wicked indulge into semenretention. i think you are still in your "formative years". fix yourself before its too late. being a cuckold is even worse than being a wanker. once that is fixed concentrate on retaining your semen if you want that. YOU have to WILL it otherwise it wont happen. on the other hand - after all its one of the few things where something comes from doing nothing ;-)you will make it i count on you!also in general: keep in mind the meme " no not november" is only 30 days. spermatogenesis takes 90 minumum! dont fail after 30 days
>>41395969>I don't actually have a regret if I'm being honest, because I feel like I lost so little that I'll be right back to where I was in a weekReport back in a week. The hangover's effect isn't always immediate.
>>41396112>Can these fetishes be reversed and their damage gone away?Nta but yes. Your neural pathways can adjust over 3 months. The earlier you start with taking control over your brains wiring the easier it is and the less of a sperg you will be later in life. Your vrqin adjusts to the systems you create around yourself ans your behaviour is confined by them.Very simple example. If your daily system involves coming home from work and relieving yourself behind the PC with pornography, then move your pc to the living room and remove the ability to block out public view, like being right in front of the window with no ability to cover them. In this way you inconvenience yourself to the degree that you might grab a laptop or phone and do it elsewhere. While it doesnt tackle the root problem immediately it will over time unwire your mental associations with porn and the desktop. By analysing what effects and triggers you and then reshaping it you can conquer back your time, mental space and energy. What set of habits waste your time the most now? What urges and desires and needs (belongingness is a need) do you have which are running rampant, which you are not in control of? What areas are neglected? What mental maze have you made that you follow without questioning during a week?
>>41394983There's also an audiobook version if you're too busy (or brainrotted) to read
>>41396114Edging is still gooning. You shouldn't touch yourself like that at all.
>>41396295can you give a tl;dr what is spermatogenesis and why i should care? thanks.
>jerked of 12 times a day still had lucid dreamsEverything this guy says makes 0 sense but i dont get why anyone would lie about the stuff hes claiming
>>41396534>TL;DRcreation of sperm in your testicles. if its "full" your body can use the resources needed for that otherwiseafter that is complete your body can start using the resources for soemthing else than producing sperm. producing sperm (= potential offspring!) is always top priority for the body. so it needs further months to actualyl do something with the then available nutrients. for myself i plan to give it AT LEAST 2 months after full spermatogenesis to be able to see changes. one can always go back to being a wanker, thats not the issue here. if you are a lifelong wanker like me you maybe never had a full spermatogenesis. started wanking before i could ejaculate. 12 times a day. over dacades. i wonder the difference having these nutrients available and not wasted will make. maybe i can finally break my old plateau in weightgain...
>>41396653>zero sensewhats so hard to get about it, pal? i started lucid dreaming at age 9 or something. its not that hard
>>41396295>>41396534>>41396669also see thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4kfgLYLD90TL:DR = higher testosteronetimestamp 13:50 https://youtu.be/t4kfgLYLD90?t=830 the young man abstained 30 days and this - according to his bloodwork - resulted in increased testosterone:test from 7.2 ng/ml to 4.7 ng/ml=> 53% increasethis is after only 30 days. full spermatogenesis is said to take 90 days (=3 months)if you take into account somewhere it was stated the androgen-receptors get more "efficient" aswell while performing semenretention the total effective amount likely is even higher
>>41396300sure , will do
>>41395350Thank you anon. I'm only half way through and It has already helped me tremendously In understanding and solidifying certain concepts.
>>41394889Something I haven’t heard mentioned, having the experience to know you won’t fail if you do everything you need to in the moment and the humility to do so with excitement or joy. When I realized I had the power not to fail and I can stop worrying it got much easier. Remember, the failures are caused by long periods of allowing lust so make sure to cease lust, fomo, boredom, fantasy in the moment. Keep your mind open too, look for logical understanding of the desires when you can rather than simply destroying the thoughts or punishing yourself. I think you become very stiff when you become too combative with sexuality. this explains why some guys have problems on clean streaks. Remember, you should be getting more relaxed rather than less over time

>>41397966You need to become a master at assessing the character of a woman. I recommend Illimitable Man, his @ is @TellYourSonThis on Twitter. He has great works on how to assess a woman's character, filter them and find a good dynamic between man and woman. Use it as a guide.Then be ruthless in your assessment of character. If i was to guess, 1 in 50 women are good, and theyre more likely to be taken than single.There is also the possibility of guiding women using ur masculine strength into becoming the good woman u seek. but that is tough, and again, requires proper assessment to see if she is capable of being guided in the first placeSo in a weird, paradoxical way, you can only find a good woman if you're at complete peace with the possibility you may never find a wife.

>>41394584Gentlemen, after some pondering, I've decided to go on this journey with you.This peculiar moment of the year seems to be a good way to begin on this arduous road.I've no fucking idea if I can make it to the end of the month, however it might be funny to try.Maybe something great might come out of this adventure after all.Let us go...
Day 1. Starting over, again.. alcohol seems to be my biggest trigger. Not while drinking, but during the hangover the next day. If I drink, I need to drink in moderation otherwise my dopamine-starved mind becomes pathetically weak.
>>41398908I feel the same way when dehydrated
nutted
>>41399510how was it?
>>41399627prefer I hadn'twish pgasm was as braindead as nuttin
Day 3. I peeked but I have been controlling it. Looks like it's going to be a dirty streak. It is what it is.
This is mostly Christian brainwashing and hand wringing mixed with placebo. Your test experiences a slight bump at day seven and then permanently goes back to your earlier levels. No hard mode streak is actually doing anything for you beyond building frustration. The idea is you take that out in a girl I guess sure if she doesn't think your a desperate horny weirdo who hasn't cum in months. The sex drive doesnt turn off. Bottling up is unnatural
>>41400511t. porn addict.
>>41400511Don't bottle it up, it only builds frustration if you believe cooming is the only way out.
I badly want to make porn. In the past I never admitted it to myself. Ive always bottled it up. Im sick of lying and pretending seriously want to become a pornographer. I dont care if you judge me. I dont care wh as t my parents think. I dont care what mainstream society thinks.If I dont do this I will always feel like I didnt live my life fully on my own terms
Also I dont understand how you people can shame others for jacking off to porn when porn is the most popular form of media on the planet. Almost all of internet traffic is dominated by porn and yet your going to act like pornographers are so unclean and uncivilized as you consume their content in droves over the course of a lifetime.
>>41400597Ok maybe this thread is not for you.
>>41400609>it's good because it's le popularPeople thought the same about smoking, cocaine, opium and all kinds of other harmful things in the past. And in the future people might eventually abandon vices that we now don't think much of at the moment, like alcohol and coffee (very doubtful about the first one though).>Almost all of internet traffic is dominated by pornThis is a myth.>Two studies, one by computational neuroscientists Ogas and Gaddam from Boston University and another joint one by Google and Columbia University, suggest that the share might be much lower. Only 4 percent of websites are estimated to be porn, but web and mobile searches clock in higher at 13 and 20 percent respectively.
>2 weeks in>only effect I've noticed so far is that my piss streams are way stronger for some reasonDoes that count as a superpower?
>>41400649Eh weak. Cigarettes still exist and always will. Cigarette manufacturers still exist and make money. Tobacco has its place and always will. Same with sex work. Porn etc. Its better to integrate these things then try to shame them and pretend they dont exist when deep down you desire them
>people still unironically defending porn in 2025...in a semen retention thread of all places.Porn is poison and must be completely excised from our civilisation.
>>41400678God damn it. How. How do I stop
If your dream wants you to have sex, have sex. It must be good for you. To reward you for your retention. Sex is not the enemy. Ejaculation is.
What about having a gf? Is there a way to communicate with her that you are trying to retain, and can you still fuck, not bust, and call the retention? Like If I just fuck her to get her off and don’t bust? Am I still retaining ?
>>41400678What good reason even is there to go on the internet and attempt to convince random people you've never met to watch porn? Either there's an agenda or it's just just addicts trying to drag others down with them to feel better about themselves.
>>41400682Hahahaha Nigga Just Walk Away From The Screen Like Nigga Close Your Eyes Haha
Okay but here's the thing. You all tell me its bad. But I want to do and I like it. How do I reconcile this? Like if there wasnt a society telling me it was wrong, I would do it more.
>>41396112>Can these fetishes be reversed and their damage gone away?Yes, slowly. Don't indulge them, basically. What is not encouraged goes away, especially in the context of nofap. Self-corrects.
>>41396114>I was trying to fapNNN also means nofap. Stop touching yourself.
>>41400718Shouldn't the fact that you're now resorting to literal drug addict tier rationalization be enough to tell you that it's bad for you?
33, going on 34 year old male here. I’m on the train with you guys, hopefully until I find a woman to have children with. Porn and masturbation are like what I imagine heroin addiction is like. First full day without jerking off since I was 12 years old. Keeping it brief for now, I will check in periodically. Stay strong my friends.
>>41400743Yesterday was day one.****
just dodged a really hard urgei need to start cleaning my room to keep myself busy>>41400743how have you been jerking off for 22 years with 0 day on leave ?? like how do you even make the time to do it on lets say an important meeting day or a tough work day ??
so is semen retention beneficial in physical terms? Are you gonna grow taller, get a bigger cock and become sexiers and also live longer if you stop fapping?i dont care about the psychological placebo of abstaining, only if there are physical benefits. irl im a failure of a man and a manlet so its not about conditoning myself to have a positive self image since that is no possible no matter if i abstain or not. The question is if there are physical benefits?Does semen retention active the christ oil kundalini shit? Does it prevent nutruient from being wasted? What are the fucking benefits PHYSICALLY also just busted a load to futanari girls passionately kissing
If it was up to me and I could have any life I want, without restriction, I would quit what im doing and move to Budapest and become a hard-core pornographer. I feel like you telling me that is wrong is cultural
>>41400751Well, first I barely graduated high school (lack of ambition). I also have been self employed for the last 7 years so creating my own schedule has always allowed me time to crank one out. Porn and masturbation had been my release valve for stress and trauma for 22 years, it’s actually quite easy. Better late than never though, I’ve been reading these generals for years and never committed to the program.
Holy fucking shit i cant do it. If i go too long without cumming I literally go insane. My brain becomes retarded and I start upping the sexual risk way higher and just find reasons to watch porn. Dude if I have to hit a long streak to get a gf it just isnt happening. I have to somehow get a girlfriend even if I cant manage together a long streak and then quit once im busting in her. Its the only way.
>>41398908>alcohol seems to be my biggest trigger. Not while drinking, but during the hangover the next day.I have the same difficulty with drinking. Any alcohol seems to build up to to a damhead of wanking that takes weeks to get over. The worse the hangover the worse it is, the worse the effects.Could the hangover toxins be irritating my prostate? Flush out the bad stuff at all cost? Anyway, not good. NNN means no booze November too for me.I have sometime wondered if I could sit out a mild hangover and the drive would go away. Never achieved it though.This talk about reaching full spermatogenisus after three months id interesting. I wonder if I will start seeing big improvements then.
>>41400839I'm dubious about the whole spermatogenesis thing honestly, if there were any truth to it you could just get a vasectomy and then get all the benefits of SR while still cooming.
Day 500+ (counting years not days here)just want to post my morning routine in case it helps someone out there.Wake up and stay in bed for a moment, just thinking about what I’m grateful for everything and everyone in my life. The key is to FEEL the gratitude. I don’t need to speak anything out loud but sometimes I whisper “thank you.” I focus on feelings of being blessed and lucky as well.Then I remind myself of who I Am. I’m here to observe and watch something unfold. I’m not here to cast judgment or save others. Life is the teacher. I’m forever the student. Quietly watching and learning.Then I usually stretch, start making breakfast and eventually I’ll sit down to watch YouTube because I’m still struggling with that addiction.Eventually though I’ll make my way to my study and start reading. The Upanishads are my favorite right now.The biggest determining factor to my success every day has been HOW I start my day. What I subject my mind to via technology or reading every morning radically changes how I handle the challenges of my day.Anyway, good luck friends. May Love and peace find you all.
>>41400858this reads like the level up text in an Elder Scrolls game, lmao
The last month i quit alcohol, weed, caffeine, porn, masturbation and nicotine (the hardest one for me) and its been like two weeks now and i feel just so anxious and energetic and beyond tempted to look porn, as an ex hardcore degenerate. Maybe its too soon to say but i dont really feel major benefits yet, aside from my eyes and skin looking somewhat better, brighter and having more energy. Well, on the positive side i think i cured my erectile dysfunction since i can get a strong one with just thinking lewd stuff in 10 seconds.
>>41400870>I don't understand basic spiritualityThat means you're not ready for it, anon. I recommend reading and lurking more. Don't give up.
>>41400682Decide not to. Don't. If you slip, try again.
>>41400756You have spare resources from making sperm all the time.
>>41400778>Porn and masturbation had been my release valve for stress and traumaYet they cause stress and trauma.t. First hand experience. So to speak.
>>41400858Get a wife now. Reproducive sex is allowed.
>>41400839I’ve done it before. Drank only 2-3 drinks and not relapsed. When I was extremely busy and dedicated in life (moving countries), I effortlessly avoided relapsing despite very heavy drinking. In some ways it does seem all mental, but it’s usually not worth the possibility of relapse. I think it’s mostly just a need for dopamine. Probably spamming GABA, hydrating, and exercising the day after drinking would solve the issue. But often easier to just jerk off and get easy dopamine and stress relief.
Day 2 for NNN anons; for me not the cleanest streak but a streak nonetheless. How are you holding up?
>>41400845Seminal fluid contains more nutrients than the sperm cells themselves.
>>41400858Also around day 500 here.Bro quit the youtube. Go on a dopamine detox. Semen retention benefits literally double after you do. Starting the day on youtube is not the way a retainer should begin his morning.
>>41400983Believe me, I know.
>>41394584whats up boys,been a while...11 months of SR so far.About 6 months into this, the people in these forums told me "just wait until you start fasting".and oh baby... I was not prepared for what happens when you pair SR with Prayer with Fasting with Discipline and all the sorts.Stay on the path brothers.Also learnt prana breathing is defs demonic but if you can control it, you can use it - or IT will use you.
>>41400990>Get a wife now. Reproducive sex is allowed.I’ve had many lifetimes to experience the householder path. It is not mine this time around.>>41401026There are many paths leading up the same mountain. The only foolish one is he who runs around telling others that their path is wrong.
Day 4.
>>41401224>I was not prepared for what happens and... what happened? gonna leave it open to interpretation or you will actually elaborate on what changed
>>41401376they never specify these things.
30s annons, is it over for me or am I just flatlined? I don't seem to get that pumped up feeling on retention now. As in I still feel the negatives of cooming have gone, but the strong effects of retention aren't here, or hopefully just need a longer streak (two weeks is about as far as Ive gone in a year, maybe thats it). Have I permo fried my balls by gooning and smoking weed this past year lads?
>>41400511>Your test experiences a slight bump at day seven and then permanently goes back to your earlier levels.not true at all
>>41394681you just know this guy lays pipe 24/7
>>41394584I relapsed yesterday and ive come to the conclusion that ive been a retard this whole time and have been over complicating SR as a wholeive been struggling with sr for a while and ive always tried to do these methods for sr to try to trick my mind into not jerking off or whatever and trying to do all these other tricks and methods that never worked and ive realized that to successfully retain i just have to not do it. Whenever i got an urge i would always freak out and make it more complicated and end up relapsing, but all i really have to do whenever i get an urge is just not do it. Noone is forcing me to jerk off or anything and im not going to get withdrawal symptoms like with drugs or alcohol, so even if its uncomfortable i just have to sit there and let it pass and not act on it.i feel like such a retard after messing up for so long. I’ve been trying to make sr easy but its not meant to be that way, i just have to sit with the discomfort of urges
