I have experience with semen retention from prison. I went 3 years with almost never jacking off except when I had to in order to avoid nocturnal emission. It's not exactly the best place to jack it.
Anyway around this time I did meet a Hermetist (yes, in prison, a fucking Hermeticist) who broke me off some stuff and got me to read a few books.
When I learned about semen retention and sexual energy in magic I put it to the test with meditation and the like. Let me tell you, it was literally magical. It's the only way I can describe what happened to me when I put this to work.
I'm trying to get back into semen retention because TL;DR I know the power of sexual transmutation and I'm tired of being on this backslide in my life right now that's been going on in slow motion for the last 3 years.
I know what I have to do.
Wish me luck, anons.
