Welcome to the Semen Retention General!
Father of Chads 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.

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.

>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.

>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

Masterbation caused 9/11

9 days, cleanest streak I’ve ever had. Didn’t feel sore this morning as I usually do after a day of work, and I was much more energetic and confident today. My joints also feel better. I’ve noticed that every time I fap, they immediately weaken, and it’s only exacerbated by work. And yet I’ve kept falling into the trap over and over like a fool. But I’m finally digging my way out.

I just realized how pointless lewd images are if you aren't going to masturbate to them.

Like the form of a woman is beautiful and deserves to be admired as a divine work of art that it is but seeing it in a lewd way is just an exercise in futility if there is no outcome. It just is.

You have to go higher. Fasting and dopamine fasting.

>Decaying menstruating meat sack of fermenting bile and shit and piss is a divine work of art
???

The whole argument about women in the last thread was really cringe. So I’m gonna straighten things out. Observing and reporting magnetism is a decent way of measuring progress, and confirms there’s something real going on. However, yes it’s true that a lot of guys obsess too much over this. But it’s also the case that some guys just want to have a casual sex, so be it. There’s no reason to argue so much if people have different goals. I personally want to avoid women until I’m the strongest I can be, and only then find a woman to have children with. Some people want to avoid women entirely, which is fine too. We all have different goals, abilities, circumstances, dreams. However, as a courtesy to those who don’t want to think so much about women (and who may be struggling to do so…), I think it’s best that no one mention anything too sexual, even explicit flirty interactions with women etc.

It is insane that in my early 30's, the longest I have abstained from masturbating is ~45 days when I had a significant injury. When I was "retaining" in the hospital, I had dozens of women come to visit me and try to make me lose my seed, nurses making sexual remarks, etc. Now I am starting to see the power. But, as a man with wife (common-law, soon to be married into the Latin Church) and child, I see that the creativity, the power to change the world and reflect the light of Christ is what it is all about.

>>40502855 (OP)
Reminder to ignore shills and block images.

Also I’m pretty sure that the guy who said he went for 6 months and experienced magnetism after a wet dream is a shill.

We KNOW there are shills here. They want us to fail. Ask yourself, what are the more advanced tactics for convincing us to relapse? How might they try to shill without outing themselves as shills?

>>40502855 (OP)
I was in a 5 month streak, and I fell last week. I got a wet dream that made me wake up all cummed, got angry and just fapped straight after waking up. I regret having done that, but I will surpass myself now.

>>40503033
i came to SR for the women, and lately i've gotten a hot streak in chess and St. Joseph helping me out with avoiding lust. my theory is SR is a spiritual journey unique to all of us, but it's a journey we must walk

>. my theory is SR is a spiritual journey unique to all of us
it's a journey that transcends all dimensions on this earth, the universe will bow to you if you're worthy and present.

8 Weeks clean today. Had a nocturnal release. Only 1 little twitch then I woke and it stopped.
I checked a drop under the microscope and the vast majority of the sperm were dead.

>>40503415
intermittent fasting, or fast once a week. And you can still do dopamine fasting, meditation, breath work, cold showers, sunlight, exercise, etc.

SEXHAVER HERE
I've been retaining for 2 weeks
went to church today and a girl sat in front of me and started playing with her hair
she DEFINITELY wants to cram my BWC up her anal cavity and have me blow a giant, sticky, peanut-butter-textured load all up in her poop shoot
I looked up at Jesus on the cross and screamed out "why do you torture me like this?
saddest part is, this is verbatim copied from the last thread
we need an advanced SRG thread

Does anyone know what happened to him? I can tell he's on a long streak.

>>40503065
>Also I’m pretty sure that the guy who said he went for 6 months and experienced magnetism after a wet dream is a shill.
Could be, but not all wet dreams are the same.
I've had
- dry orgasms (feel energized after, not drained)
- fluid ejaculation (erection persists throughout, feel good and energized after)
- sperm ejaculation (feel a little drained but it's not as bad as masturbation ejaculation)
- intense prostate orgasm (feel totally drained after, worse than masturbation ejaculation)

>>40503073
"double tap" is the worst way to relapse.

Relapsed on day 18. Went 2 days and relapsed again. About to hit day 1. In between the relapses I somehow managed to pull a date on Facebook dating. I have suspicions though that this woman has succubi intentions. Im saving myself for marriage and her profile says she's a Christian too, but my gut has me thinking she might be after my seed. Will see how the date goes but I'm going to remain cautious.

>>40502965
yup, I never peek but if something pops up now it usually has little effect or I see it as a beautiful creature of life in the same way I would see a beautifully shaped rose in nature.

It's different from lust while still having an air of sexual tension and beauty.

>>40502991
expand your mind friend, these are thoughts of absolution and rejection of the transforming of energy.

Currently day 23, aimed for 30, but could go longer if it's gonna be like this. Feels longer than it has been. Kind of flatflined, emotionally. A lady friend was touching me on the arm a lot more than usual. Been deliberately avoiding looking at women, lustfully. Interesting to note that even though girls won't like lustful looks, they do kind of expect it, so it feels like they do try and test you and try and pull it out of you, just so they can drop you and move onto the next dude.

I mostly agree with the caveat that we should everyone express their experience on SR, being related to attraction or to complete celibacy. As you said both is fine and part of the journey, we should welcome all anons and their own path. The alternative will be to create two general but it will be a mess.

For example this account is perfectly reasonable, and talk about the effect of SR without being lewd

What explains this phenomenon

This has kind of ruined me to some degree. I only want the most feminine women. Everyone else is grey energy. Majority of modern women give off this grey energy. Stressed and unavailable. This feminine energy is like a powerup to boost your journey. Funny thing is they can't get enough of you. They can't stop looking or being near you. It's your magnetic other half.

>>40503065

Oh definitely. You know how powerful a single man can be when he retains for a very long time? Imagine a whole army of men like that. They have to shut that down FAST.

More than a month in, brothers. I can feel the power. I feel blessed. This is what a man should feel like. It is intense, my thoughts are intense, I feel the movement of energy. We are the chosen once for we were lucky to discover knowledge about SR. Do not waste that gift.

For context, I frequently have sex with my gf, but I don't cum. No porn. SR with a woman is much easier than alone.

You only feel weakness if your body is unused to fasting. Once you've done it once or twice the transition to running on fat reserves is pretty smooth. Never listen to people who suggest going beyond 100 hours or dry fasting though.

>>40503516
Normgroids are inherently unable to understand the actual goals of retention due to their lack of a soul, which leaves them in the same category as animals
Every higher doctrine, especially the ones having to do with the metaphysical and everything invisible to the naked eye, will ultimately be reduced to the simple question:
>"Will this help me gain access to a woman's cunt or a boatload of money with minimal effort?"
The normie, in his utter inability to understand anything other than eating or fucking, will then either discard the option entirely, or in the case of the answer being "well that is the implication, yes" will put in some minimal effort to follow the broadest possible outlines of the doctrine and inevitably fail at achieving his desired goal
Everything that becomes widely available to the masses is inevitably profaned, the most widely visible example being Christianity, where God has been reduced to a figure akin to the British monarch, who is the ultimate authority only in theory but can't do shit against daddy government
Of course, the normie cannot be blamed for this any more than a bird can be blamed for shitting on your car, because not in a million years could you teach them better, no matter the methods you may use
The truly unfortunate thing is the fact that there are no more insurmountable barriers that would keep them in their lane
I, for one, can't wait for this thread to have a schizm and the /nofap/ and /noporn/ crowds fuck off to their containment thread

>>40505859
then you'll just have an empty thread, I don't mind people that are here for different reasons as long as we all try to retain

holy fuck i am losing all over the place
whenever you coom espescially to masturbation and porn just remember it's not always as easy to get back to retaining. It might take another week of bargaining and failing to get back on your feet. ask yourself if it's worth it

Dopamine blocks prolacin, but too much prolacin reduces dopamine production. This creates a vicious cycle (where the decrease in dopamine makes prolacin harder to block, and the lack of dopamine is felt and makes you want to have an orgasm to get a dopamine hit, which will create even more prolacin). Prolacin also blocks the production of testosterone, which is a pain in the ass.

Cortisol (the stress hormone) also blocks testosterone. Orgasm can lower cortisol, but often not the case with porn use.

Watching porn, even without orgasm or masturbation, desensitizes the dopamine receptors.

Caught my little cousin (11 years old) say "goon" the other day. Been disturbed since. What the fuck has happened.

I had a lot of synchronicities happen in the past few days to remind me that life's a meme and you can do whatever. Thus you should do whatever, thus don't nut.

I'm 3 days in and feeling good. A couple of urges but I'm proud of how far I've come and how much further I have to go

>>40503145
>>40503516
If you think about it, the whole notion of SR attracting horny women to you is still "porn logic." Like those pornos where a plumber stops by a hot woman's house and she makes a ton of innuendo and the music goes 'bow chicka wow wow' and they get it on. Not saying it doesn't happen but it's incredibly unrealistic. Chances are, if you don't say anything and can't lead a convo, nothing will happen. Attraction is mostly mental and women are turned on by words. If SR can help with that it's great, but also note that chances are if you're on really long streak you'll be really bad and be ready to coom in like 5 strokes since your pp hasn't been active in so long

>>40506118
Right, because one thing that PMO does, or even sex addiction, is that your focus and energy is concentrated / stuck in your groin area. So you're constantly gonna be stuck in a loop of thinking about sex. This is how habits form. Best thing to do is preoccupy with something else, preferably creative. Like art, music, which transmutes soul energy into a physical form

>>40506822
>I'm 3 days in and feeling good.
IMO the peak of SR benefits come from 3-5 days after nutting, then it drops to baseline and stagnancy. I think it's because the areas responsible for production of semen is more stimulated so you're on higher alert. It's like going back to workout after 2 days of rest - you'll be dominating your workouts. But if you workout after 15 days of rest, you'll be fighting against that inertia

I haven't jerked off in months, but my gf and I have sex usually twice a week.

Is ejaculation with a woman, in the act of coitus, still seen as a way of losing my mental clarity and losing vitality? Or is the problem beating off alone?

I feel really fucking great after fucking the shit out of my gf and always feel more motivated, better mood, etc. and having actual sex is the only way I keep myself from masturbating

>>40507208
You should marry her if you like it so much.

The answer to the first is more complicated. It's "better" because it is being used properly but it becomes masturbation eventually.

>>40507208
>Is ejaculation with a woman, in the act of coitus, still seen as a way of losing my mental clarity and losing vitality
Yes
Same nutrients lost from your body, same hormones released in it
It is strictly nofap, and it is definitely NOT semen retention, unless you stop yourself from cooming, which I doubt

>>40506645
Yes. My dad was an hardcore alcoholic for 30+ years and the nigger somehow dropped drinking out of nowhere, cold turkey. I remember the first weeks were awful and it looked like he was dying. Eventually it gets better and it's been years since he touched a sip of alcohol.

Unfortunately, he became a heavy smoker - but hey at least he's not a drunk asshole anymore and dude's almost 70, so even if he dies of lung cancer or some shit, he probably lived all he could considering his liver is probably non existent at this point

But then the more closely you watch yourself the more I realize it will take more than just 24 hours to get back to where I was.

>>40507226


I think the nutrients in semen are a myth that men have perpetuated so that women will swallow them and allow ejaculation in their faces.

Do you have any proof that nutrients are lost to this extent???

I think you can lose 0.25 mg of zinc and 1 mg of magnesium. That's nothing when you consider your daily intake in a normal diet.

It's true that the nutrients in semen will be recycled when it becomes defective over time, but that's also true for all cells in the body.

>>40502855 (OP)
I'm 38 years old, and since early puberty, I've been addicted to masturbation. There have been periods where I managed to reduce it — I’ve had long-term relationships, gotten my own place, built a somewhat decent career, and yet also missed many opportunities.

Despite all that, I’ve always come back to PMO — it’s been a constant in my life, especially during stressful times like now.

Currently, I'm unemployed. I teach English on the side for just a few hundred bucks a month, which isn’t enough to cover rent. I’ll soon have to move back home just to have a place to live. I’m not sure what to do with my life.

Over the past few years, I’ve been dedicating myself to studying art it’s my lifelong passion and dream. However, it has given me very little in return, and on days like today, I feel like it’s all been a waste of time.

I can personally attest to the power of semen retention (SR), even though I’ve never made it past 30 days. When I do retain, things really start to change. Right now, I’ve been holding on for a few days without much trouble.

This is my last resort, boys.

>>40507562
Dick cage. Go extreme I'm not joking.

Can I just stop and resist the urges? Instead of watching porn and fapping, can I just not do it? Is it really that easy, or am I missing some red pill? Jesus Christ is Lord.

>>40507600
Yeah I don't know if I need that over the last few days I haven't even had sexual thoughts. I'm kinda depressed because it seems like I have wasted so many good oportunities and made such bad choices. At this point I realize that I had severe dopamine addiction and was escaping from reality for years and years, finding something to distract me. At least exercise and arts are "useful" distractors but I haven't got anything from it and at this point, I just feel lost. This was one of my biggest fears and it became a reality. I'm just trying SR because it's the only thing I have never tried.

>>40507612
I know this is such a normie question, but actually why is it so hard?

>>40507529
>Lecithin which is a vital nutrient that makes up 15% of your grey matter
i could stop there but i wont
>Choline which has the highest concentrations in the brain and semen and is a vital nutrient that when deficient causes every organ in the body to shit itself slowly
>Freebase stem cells, literally stem cells that can be used anywhere
>Zinc, which you absolutely need and probably already dont get enough of in your current diet
>Magnesium which is esoteric in function as the PINEAL gland produces pizeoelctric currents due to magnesium and calcite crystals aka the calcification.
>Folate, described as CRUCIAL to Dna replication, cell devision, and protecting the cells from DNA damage

Theres more but that's enough, your body has to make this shit every time you ejaculate. nothing is free. This principle is called Seminal parity in biology. and in less advanced beings like river trout or smaller mammals the cost is that they die immediately after ejaculating in one explosive burst.
>We are superior beings but not immune to this principle, we spread it out over multiple experiences providing ample time to engage and ample time to regenerate. It is litterally just greed for sense pleasure that causes ill effects and lack of physical and spiritual inner enhancement through the reabsorption of these constituents.

>>40507562
>>40503912

>>40507639
Pretty much everyone here feels the same way. If it was so easy, nobody would relapse ever. I think the best thing to do is just transmuting or engaging in some other activity to use as an outlet for all that sexual energy you have built up, like working out or making art.

This is the roughest flatline I’ve ever had. Nothing feels enjoyable, it’s like my brain can’t create dopamine anymore. I’m just sitting here with the inability to do anything but wonder what the fuck I’m suppose to do.

>>40507708
As much as I can simphathize with the aretypical jove, when I look back and see Set and Ba'al, the other storm gods in the lineage, I'm not too keen of the sacrificial nature of the relationship. That being said, I am still a bit of a aetherial free agent, for I am not looking to fill the personal journey with wanton servitude of virtues I do not truly understand. How do you personally go about reconciling this as a non-abrahamist?

>>40507639
>why is it so hard?
because you're biologically and mentally hardwired to cum and reproduce. SR is fighting against your primal instincts.

>>40507722
How deep in did it start? You must have had other flatlines during this period too right?

>>40507722
>93

Completion for the master builder. You got this.

>>40507748
I’m not sure when it started desu. Time doesn’t feel real. And yeah I had other flatlines but this one is built different

Is there anything you can do specifically to move past a flatline or do you just have to wait them out?

>>40507770
100% just wait it out. it's there to test your patience IMO

>>40507784
if you have made a lot of spiritual and material progress leading up to the flatline it is so hard to keep it going through it. it's the only reason i still cum once a month, i'd like to go longer just to test myself but when I have done the flatlines basically undo everything for me a lot more than cumming does

If I reabsorb them, that means I've already consumed them beforehand to get them... so why do I need to reabsorb them if I already consume them?

It's not as if ejaculation completely empties the body either, since semen contains 90% water, 5% sugar, and 2% protein.

What is so precious that I can't get it through food?

>>40507722
stay in silence . eyes close. lisent yourself.
what you feelll is perfect to do this

>>40506469
Bro, that sounds like women being women brah, not your fault

Why does no one talk about the minor telepathy you get from maximizing magnetism

>>40508019
In any case you can't counteract the prolactin blast that your brain gets and bathes in for days afterwards
Speaking in a purely practical context, of course
This is /x/ and not /sci/, and so are many of the benefits you get

>>40506469
What the other anon said, this is what the idealists call 'magnetism' and the materialists call 'pheromones', whereas it's probably a bit of both. There was an anon that have collected a whole Google doc of accounts of so called 'bad luck's post a streak relapse, and I must say I experienced that reality shift more that once myself.. still don't know why it's happening (I call this 'the Amnesia' as I also often lost inner drive, meaning and reasons behind my goals, like a bad case of post nut clarity).

Anyways, yeah, relapsing seem like the best thing to do but 2 seconds after the deed you realize it's rarely worth it.

>>40506645
Withdrawal is a bitch, even more so if you quit multiple addictive habits, but this shall pass anon.

Nah bro, don't think this way. This is how boyfriends get whipped - their gf changes up on them, starts being distant, or starts being kunty for no reason. Then they beg and plead their gf "What's wrong baby did i do something wrong?" Nah it's just how they are. Don't ever tie your worth by how a woman feels about you, because their feelings change from moment to moment.

>>40508019
stupid fucking retard, the nutrients and enzymes wasted to make the cum go back into the other systems of your organism giving you an overall buff, mfw you dumb faggot kys

>>40508133
This
"Hey guys I sapped my lifeforce by COOOOMing 5 minutes ago, I can eat a sandwich and I'm good for another round, right?"
No, you dumbass
Much like you aren't good to go for some time after you annihilate yourself in the gym, you can't just slam a protein shake and do it again in 10 minutes, or an hour, or even the next day

>>40507722
I'm in a flatline currently (day 40+), my current protocol to improve dopaminergic regugaltion is :
> Wake up early
> Drink pressed lemon (for vitamin C) with N-acetyl-tyrosine 500mg + l-theanine 200mg with NO foods intake (dopamine precursor with co-factor without competing serotonin precursors)
> Go for a 20 minute walk in the early sun (scientifically recommended for boosting early vitamin D and dopamine)
> Go home, eat 3 eggs and take a cold shower
> Automatic writing for ~20 minutes

Flatline is a bitch, but it does wonder, I won't take tyrosine supplements more than 5 days straight tho, some do but it's better to find it in food to avoid wrecking your homeostasis.

Let's say it's a flatline special regimen (you can add B6, ginseng, omega 3 and magnesium to the mix too but that's the basic, everything except the ginseng should be in your diet already otherwise).

>>40508019

Why do people care about this? Its not about the actual semen you dumbfucks. Its all about energy.

Both are true anon, both are true. I experienced this knowing very well the shifting nature of female psychology and behavior, it's not what we are talking about here.

>>40508193
Also this
If you're not interested in spiritual stuff and giving yourself a hormonal disbalance does not dissuade you, what are you even doing here at this point

>>40506469
I had the exact same thing happen. Been going to this store for like a year and a half. See this cute cashier maybe once a week. Basically always on 2+ days or way more. Conversations are usually short but shes smiling and being very friendly to the point I think shes trying to give signals. Blow an 18 day streak the other day. Relapse the day before going in. All of a sudden very curt. I hope and pray I can get back to the way things were.

>>40506118
I am having the same exact issue. Blew a streak, and now its just constant failure. I thought since I went a while I could just get right back into it easy. Really need to focus hard right now. I know its not worth it, but the urges are strong.

This is really a spiritual and physical war. We live in a time where basically everyone has more decadence than a king. King David had to go up on a roof to stare at some pixelated 50x zoom tits during a bath. Meanwhile we can just whip out our phones and in 10 seconds find ancient knowledge that was blasted away in Sodom and Gomorrah. David was a guy after Gods own heart and he still failed to that. This is an insanely powerful fight.

>>40508202
Joke aside the zest is where the true vitamin C and nutriment are (if it's whole food with no pesticide anyways).

>>40508193
Exactly, again "materialists" call this nutrient, "idealists" call this ojas. The idea being that the energy is repurposed.

>>40508213
I mean there are Demons who literally saw God and were like

"God you are amazing and if I turn against you I will literally suffer for eternity in unending pain I 100% am aware of what will happen and you are 100% justified in what you will do... but I'm gonna turn against you because I just REALLY want to make humans watch Porn and kill themselves."

One Third of All Angels did this... there is a demon who goes out of his way to give troons Power and cut their dicks off. If anything God is too kind.

>>40508270

>>40508270
I always thought of the Israelites being led out of Egypt and seeing miracles like bread falling from heaven, and the second Moses goes up Mount Sinai the instantly start worshiping a golden calf. Always just sort of laughed at that idea. Now im starting to see that im really no different, and God really is too gracious.

I know the porn is bad for me. I turn from it for a few days only to turn back to it at a later date. I know if I can just stop looking at it that God may bless me richly with good things like a renewed mind, and spirit and maybe even tangible things as well, but I still fall back into it.

Never even considered that 1/3 of the angels saw and worshipped God and still chose to rebel, and are still in active rebellion knowing that there is an ending to all of this. The demons still torment us when apparently one day believers are going to judge them.

Seems like a really grand scale concept of grace and sanctification. God is way too kind. I really need to remember this and meditate on it with my current streak. I know im probably going to fail again, but I need to fight harder and remember what this is all for and how much grace I have been given.

>>40507739
No takers?

>>40508133
I find it makes no sense since most of it is reabsorbed in the testicles to make new sperm. Almost nothing goes anywhere else in the body.

everytime a sperm is destroy a new one is create basicly

There is this amazing post of an anon talking about cum attracting cum demons and praying to God about it. I wish I had it.

>>40508531
demons made out of cum?

>>40508502
not after 120 days. oncer the sperm is mature after a month it can transmute and go up the spine or be reabsorbed, i literally could not give two fucks if you think im lying or wrong or whatever it's the truth

>>40506645
I find that the anxiety (surrounding abstaining) hits exceptionally high levels when I peek at lewd content. So, I am working to erradicate that entirely. I feel you on the anxiety though, brother. WAGMI

Good luck everyone on your endeavors, may you manifest better moods and motivations to overcome your struggles

>>40507208
It is somewhat more positive than pornography induced fap sessions, however I would suggest that the only reason a man should cum is to produce a child. This is something it has taken me 32 years and thousands of orgasms to realize.

>>40507562
Godspeed. I am with you in that I believe retention to be the difference maker in my own life, and when I fall, I can see the potential being taken from me.

>>40507208
That's something for you to decide.
It's not Semen Retention, by definition.
If you feel great, then that's fine.
Most people here will seethe at this, but it's about age. Young men are not supposed to be celibate. The main benefit is not watching porn and not jerking off. Actual hardcore SR is for older men.
Just ensure that your sex is a pure expression of passionate Love, as opposed to something perverse and fetishised

Do you guys believe that sexual fantasies and fetishes show deeper emotional issues that can bring self-awareness and healing?

>>40508631
yeah this what i say reabsorbed like every other cell in the body..

I know you don't literally mean sperm goes to the spine. You mean nutrients... like the zinc in sperm is reabsorbable and goes to the spine. But if I get zinc from eating a steak, it will also go throughout my body and also to the spine.

I want to know if there's something special... a vitamin... a mineral... something... created only in sperm (for example, magnesium can only be created in dead stars) that I can't have in my diet that can only come from sperm when it's reabsorbable.

If the answer is no, then why is it so important to talk about it?

When you say it goes up the spine, aren't you referring to the chakra rather than sperm?

>>40507208
If you're being safe and responsible, I personally don't see the problem. I think the world would be a better place if people are in loving relationships and express regular intimacy.

>>40507218
>You should marry her if you like it so much.
Why overcomplicate things? What can marriage do besides make a good thing complicated and messy?

>>40508753
Yes and no. They all come from the desire to find real passionate love with a woman. But there is more to it, like the connection between sex and death which has been the subject of many works of art.
On the other hand, it is all just perversion. You have conditioned yourself like a dog to enjoy these things because it gets you your kicks. Once you start purifying yourself, these perversions drop off by themselves.

>>40508718
>Just ensure that your sex is a pure expression of passionate Love
I think both can be good and healing - love making mixed with some brainless fucking with the right partner

>>40507562
>Over the past few years, I’ve been dedicating myself to studying art it’s my lifelong passion and dream. However, it has given me very little in return, and on days like today, I feel like it’s all been a waste of time.
I feel ya man, especially seeing what AI can do. But true art, the one that comes from the soul, is never a waste of time. Maybe if you're solely pursuing art for fame or money, but if you have a genuine respect and dedication for the craft, it's one of the highest and most challenging pursuits one can embark on. I really hope you make it man, don't give up on your dreams!

>>40508398
>>40508454
The "issue" is that God is SO loving that he didn't just destroy the demons outright and still allows them to take part in things. On that note instead of just destroying Adam because the Price of Sin is Death he decided he would incarnate as a human being and let a bunch of Jews beat him within and inch of his life before letting Romans torture him by nailing him to a tree.

coomed yesterday and then like an hour later i sperged out at my father, yelled at him, etc. not good. the effortpoast in OP is true and it's crazy i've seen it for years now but still 'bate because i'm too lazy to go do anything else (get job, get girls, get a hooker, etc.)

nofap benefits are 100% real and also free. if you think about it, having computer + internet to access coomer shit comes with a huge price (need a decent comp to run quality vids, monthly internet fee is around $80 now)

>>40508820
You have it all figured out...

day 42, flatlining bigly

>>40508895
Ask and you recieve.

>>40508772
my lord i have to walk you through the principles of retention?? research it you douchebag why do i have to explain anything to you im simply saying what happens, No. the sperm does not go up the spine, its components do. and the metaphysical properties that align with the substance creates many alchemical processes, as if you are bioenergetic powerplant.
you realize if you release, the hypothetical zinc that you'll receive from the steak will go to your reproductive system instead of your body so you are indeed hurting yourself.
And Chakra's cannot move you fucking dumbass, it goes through your meridians and invigorates your dantiens, eventually the jing become a higher more potent form of energy known as chi then chi is transmuted into shen energy which the universe recognizes as ojas you're a fucking faggot bro go research SR.

I coom all day. After 3 wanks only dribbles of coom come out though.

>>40508035
i answered your question in my original post. but in case you dont understand. Choline, and lecithin are required for brain and organ function. Your body will produce semen even if its killing you, even if youve run out of reserve chemicles, even if you have to start breaking down organs like the liver and your gray matter ot get more of it.

>>40508772
the cerebral spinal fluid is what hes talking about also. The stemcells, lecithin, choline, phospholipids and other constituents like folate all get reabsorbed and some mixed into the CSF fluid. Meditation causes CSF flow to the brain to increase by 23%. CSF flow in the brain causes actual piezoelectricity in the pineal gland due to the movement of the AQUEDUCT OF SYLVA physically rubbing your pineal gland and causing the magnesium crystanls and calcite to produce the interaction.

Lecithin makes up 15% of grey matter. Either u are are always using it and destroying grey matter to make more or absorbing it and obviously getting smarter. the same goes for every chemicle you dont use. You stock pile and regenerate every part of the body that needs it.

obviously having the ability to reabsorb and regenerate organs clears all 7 of the chakra automatically. because the associated organs are regenerating. This is explained in Brahmacharya, the book Bliss of the Celibate goes into further detail.

Godman:The word made flesh goes into the same detail but by decoding Christian mysticism and allegory

>>40502855 (OP)
I went a couple of months without jerking off recently because of health issues
If there is a benefit to it I don't think I noticed it
Not that there aren't some people who wouldn't have better lives if they weren't cranking it every second of the day but yeah, expecting to develop superpowers because of it is probably misguided

>>40502855 (OP)
I watched porn last night but didn't even edge, I got tempted bros.. Do i just reset the streak?

How do I get out of the streak purity mentality? If I see ANY sexy imagery whether its an actress in a movie, anime girl or video game character my mind tells me my streak is tainted and I may as well jerk off.

>>40510371
I understand the feeling but I personally believe putting this kind of constraints or moral bound is dangerous in the long run. Avoid relapses sure, especially through porn, but it's a journey. I think you cause more harm than anything to yourself thinking that way.

That's being said that's your journey and you have to ride the ride how you feel it fit, my advice is to be judgemental and more accepting on yourself.

>>40510427
>is to be judgemental
*less

>start retaining
>get prescribed nerve blockers
>start doing and saying all kinds of stupid shit because I didnt look up the medications
>luck is 10x worse, had the worst few weeks of my life
The people telling you to clean streak are 100% right. No drugs, alcohol, video games, etc... I remember a lot of debates with people on amphetamines saying their luck imploded and went to shit (why stimulant fasting is in the OP if I recall) and thought it was wonky at the time, but there's definitely truth to it and I can see it now. I'm restarting and doing it right this time.

We dont fail, we learn bros.

>>40510578
I agree with all of this minus a nice fresh cup of home made black coffee...
Call it cope, I find it helps balance my SR in a nice way.

>>40510371
>my mind tells me my streak is tainted and I may as well jerk off.
Probably a thoughtform implanting an excuse. Don't obsess about things being tainted, do your best, make a mistake just fix it and keep going

>>40510371
You like 80% of this thread dont actually understand the practical and are just dealing with the theoretical. Its just ignorance of what is or isn't happening.

1.ill put it simply. Hardcore mental purity is fine but shame and guilt arn't. There is no doctrine that tells you to feel shame for having thoughts.
2.There is a difference between a random sexual thought, the emotion of lust, and either of those two becoming true imagination. Imagination is the thought and emotion becoming a toy that you play with to simulate more of the former. You cant stop the thought, you can lessen how often they happen but they are automatic. You can stop the thought from becoming the fire of emotion and definitly before getting lost in imagination. But If you dont you are fine still fine so long as you recover your senses and dont act it out. good old deep breathing transmutation solves that.
3.sexuality is fine. Its your lack of mental control. Sex isn't evil. Its just a dragon you have to tame. Once tamed (Consistent struggle, failure, struggle) You wont even consider the thoughts if they come at all. they'll become irrelevant.

>>40508040
I have noticed it. Look up local sidereal time, that should enhance it even further. Certain hours ESP is stronger.

>>40510578
Everything is energy, when you feel good u burn nervous energy and things like prosperous in the brain. booze and drugs and caffiene are obvious. Which is why brahmacharya is also called cold living. Because you conserve every aspect and focus on cleaning out the body with fasting and water. No better detox.

Video games can be alright as it still requires hand eye coordination and competitive focus. And is an easy way to clock your mental acuity as generally speaking you increase all your stats on retention like win rate and reaction time. But if you have other hobbies that are more productive its better to pursue them

Luck a combination of your mental clarity, physical health, and inner narrative. Semen retention helps with the first 2 by a ton and usually does alot for the inner narrative since you are making a sacrifice every day that causes consistent gains in all areas. But if ur like, doing meth and mentally chaotic then ur shooting urself in foot. Luck is not accidental its decided every moment and sometimes you can feel like shit and decide the worst.

>>40509285
very relatable post
Babylonian torment engines will improve your presentation if you survive

I was 5 months into it, with edging to porn still. Things had changed. There was, sometimes, a deep feeling of joy, like everything of the present time felt almost nostalgic.

I then had the chance to have sex a few weeks ago, and ended up coming - while having sex, the only way i hope to do it anytime soon. It felt strange. Out of the blue, the girl that i was so attached to, giving attention and affection, made me feel anxious. Things got boring, and i started to feel more and more irritated. That was the first time i really felt that coming was not a real option for me anymore. I wanted to make it linger, fucking or not fucking. I wanted to feel that joy, as i want to feel it now, everyday of my life. No orgasm ever gave me this.

Fast foward to now, i was able to get back on track. I´m not cured of my PMO vice yet, but i´m on the road to being free. I´m writing this just to make sure to the one whos doubting. No, you shouldn´t cum because you´ve edged. There is no more going back to that life style. Take meditation seriously, work. Learn an instrument. You are literally changing who you are, and you don´t know yet who you will be. It is strange, and most of the times really sad. Thats vice.

Life will be good, and better. You can do it, and you will do it. I know there are better people than able to give better advices, but i do hope mine will be helpful for at least one of you, guys.

>>40510371
Do you prefer to lose it enterily or to live in the middle ground? If i told you that you wouldn´t ever be able to be fully pure, would you give up?

>>40510371
>I may as well jerk off
You need to be honest about what this is
It's not you wanting a pure streak
It's your coombrain self sabotaging, telling you that you to return to old coomer patterns

You're talking nonsense, what I consume goes everywhere in my body... not just in my balls (maybe not in your).

I'm not going to insult you like you do. Thanks anyway for your explanation.

THAT’S IT. Summer time is such a great motivator for sr. I’m seeing a bunch of women out showing a lot of skin and I’m so sick and tired of almost automatically looking. I’m sick of feeling like a lecherous creep and being controlled by lust. Stealing glances, looking at body shapes out of the corner of my eye…

There is nothing wrong with finding women beautiful of course. But every man on Earth senses the difference in his between a detached brief appreciation of beauty, and when he crosses the line into lecherousness and lust. The energy is simply unmistakable and I’m SICK of feeling the latter. I want freedom god damn it

I’ve done many weeks and months long streaks so I know that so can get to a feeling of purity quickly, I’m gonna do it bros

Thank u

I used to masturbate once every few days, but about 3 weeks ago I made out with a female friend of mine, and she said that we might fuck soon when she gets the time.
Ever since then I've been impervious to urges to masturbate, for some reason the thought of potential sex in the future is telling my body to hold it in. I've been imagining how the sex is going to be like for the last 3 weeks, I get hard, but I don't get the urge to masturbate.
Thinking back, I think what made me masturbate the most was the feeling of loneliness and hopelessness. Like that I'm not going to laid so just might as well.

That's exactly what I said.

>the hypothetical zinc that you'll receive from the steak will go to your reproductive system instead of your body so you are indeed hurting yourself

yes a small part..maybe even less than 0.1% I don't understand why you make a big deal out of it

>And Chakra's cannot move you fucking dumbass

I didn't say it moved... I was referring to the energy that rises in the chakras...
but if you didn't know, yes, chakras move. They spin on themselves... they appear to be circles, but that's because they spin quickly... they're actually triangles.

>>40512175
I haven't fucked for years and I'm in my 30s now I think that ship is sailing away. She can keep me sexually satisfied until I find a real wife.

>>40512174
Just act as if you already have slayed. Embody that feeling of confidence that you would feel after doing it. Most women find lust repulsive and it's a heavy slimey energy. Don't think about it how will be think about how you will feel afterwards.

>>40510881
Caffeine is terrible. Try roasted dandelion root tea. Coffee-like flavor without caffeine and has herbal benefits.

>>40512191
Don't worry about your age, worry about your standing before The Almighty.
Sex is not casual, nor should it be treated as such, it is a holy union meant for man and wife.

>>40510147
And that's exactly what I said too. I'm just asking him to prove to me how important this (sperm reabsorption) is compared to the reabsorption of other cells in the body... and nutrient absorption. Sperm are destroyed to recover nutrients, which will then create new sperm.

They are mainly reabsorbed to make new ones.

Perhaps the real power is that the body, in SR, when full, will direct the nutrients consumed elsewhere. But sperm is already 90% water, 5% sugar, and 2% protein.

If you do a 40-day fast, I would 100% agree, so I understand the importance of what he says. But if you eat properly, I don't see the point.

>I am curious, though with the young kids its hard to find time to... get all that going if you feel me.

If you have a good diet and squat to take a dump, the turd can "milk" excess fluid making you feel less backed-up.
The below posts are from the archive, I've found them to be true.

>The reason that you piss twice while shitting, is your body is trying to expel the prostate fluid that normally would have come out after you shit.

>learn to squat when you shit, and after a while, when you're bearing down to shove out that last turd, you'll actually evacuate excess prostate fluid, without semen. The penis goes half-chub and you push out prostate fluid. About as gross as it sounds, but it relieves pressure, helps flush the body of any chemicals, (and helps rid of the never-ending ass-wipe condition, (where no matter how many times you wipe, you get more,) which is excellent.
You weren't made for sit-down toilets, your body is made to squat while shitting.
I suggest no shoes, no socks, and no pants. Start at home, for obvious reasons. Good luck!

>>40512656

That makes sense... if you're malnourished or fasting... I also think giving the body the opportunity to create its own molecules is a good thing, consuming rich foods is good... but when the body creates what it needs, it makes it smarter... more creative... OK, thanks for your post.

I think SR makes fasting easier too because there's less dopamine spike, less desire to eat... a virtuous circle.

I was of this mindest and have a common law partner and a child with her. Marriage is not a contract, it is a spiritual bonding of two human beings into one. This is why the Catholic Church doesn't recognize secular marriages - you have to be married in the Church for it to mean anything.

The issue with watching porn (at least for me, I'm sure others relate) is that it causes me to fall maybe not that day, but shortly thereafter, as lust has entered the sacred temple of my mind.

Q: What am I if not human?

M: That which makes you think that you are a human is not human. It is but a dimensionless point
of consciousness, a conscious nothing; all you can say about yourself is: 'I am.' You are pure being
-- awareness -- bliss. To realise that is the end of all seeking. You come to it when you see all you
think yourself to be as mere imagination and stand aloof in pure awareness of the transient as
transient, imaginary as imaginary, unreal as unreal. It is not at all difficult, but detachment is
needed. It is the clinging to the false that makes the true so difficult to see. Once you understand
that the false needs time and what needs time is false, you are nearer the Reality, which is timeless,
ever in the now. Eternity in time is mere repetitiveness, like the movement of a clock. It flows from
the past into the future endlessly, an empty perpetuity. Reality is what makes the present so vital,
so different from the past and future, which are merely mental. If you need time to achieve
something, it must be false. The real is always with you; you need not wait to be what you are. Only
you must not allow your mind to go out of yourself in search. When you want something, ask
yourself: do I really need it? and if the answer is no, then just drop it.

I think I have finally stumbled upon the middle-path.

First off I want to say that I think SR is a noble pursuit, and certainly has its benefits. I also want to emphasize off the bat that I believe porn is evil, full stop.

But I also think that the SR community, particularly this board, suffers from a bipolar mentality that results in personality-incoherence. Basically, you're either on a streak, meaning you're constantly fighting or suppressing your natural urges, or you're gooning to porn, which is allowing your sexual nature to be hijacked to the point that you lose control.

Anyway, I've been scouring every site and forum trying to figure out a pattern to all of this. I ended up reading SR threads on the Ray Peat forum, and I found this comment on page 12 of an SR thread. Pic related. It only had one response, which I will post.

But yeah. It made sense to me and I tried it out. It worked exactly how it said it would. There was no energy crash or shame or anything. I went for a walk afterwards and everything felt quite good and peaceful.

And then today, I just feel... balanced, coherent.

I've talked to multiple attractive women today and made them laugh right off the bat. This is unusual for me even on SR because I'm usually a neurotic self-conscious nutjob. Also: Eye contact is effortless. Everything just feels... smooth.

Call me a shill if you want. I'm not discouraging SR. I will say, if you are going to relapse, which let's face it, is inevitable for any number of you, if you follow the protocol in the screenshot, you'll find yourself in a much better place mentally.

I'll post the response as well.

You're insulting me for nothing because you don't provide any proof of what you're saying and also playing with words to make it seem like I'm not right because of your misinterpretation and using that to make it seem like I'm not right when that's not even the topic of the conversation.

If you feel that all your nutrients go into your sperm and that you have to store it to reabsorb them, then better for you if it helps you. I believe that my body distributes energy in a more balanced way. I don't need to believe that because I feel the effects more energetically than physically. I would have liked you to tell me more about qi and other things in this kind of subject because you seemed to be well informed but you seem to want to try to hurt me with your insults. But maybe it's just that you're angry that you're not right with me. Maybe you're trying to defend your beliefs and it's a way to protect yourself in a way... keep up the good work.

>>40513691
The biggest change I’ve noticed is an change in my attitude towards agony. I’m starting to embrace this and I am now slowely processing bad emotions. This might last years considering how shitty my life has been, but the feeling of accomplishment I get for sitting through it makes it worth while. This and also a feeling of tranquility I experience about every two weeks. There’s no logical reason to go back, even if my environment doesn’t improve.

You were right, Anon. Sorry. Haha. I looked it up. You did the right thing by mentioning zinc. It's 50% of your daily intake. For someone who doesn't eat goyslop, otherwise it's more.

30% on average of vitamin B12

20% vitamin C

10% selenium

I agree with you now

>>40513832
Shouldn’t this only be a problem if you are gooning while malnourished?

i havent fapped or looked at porn in 4 weeks. before it was ever 2 or 3 days id do this. usually when i didnt for 4 or 5 days id have a wet dream, but this past 4 weeks it hasnt happened. kind of got me worried since i expected a nocturnal emission by now, dunno whats different

>>40513859
I feel you bro. I'm on day 32, usually at this point I'd be waking up rock hard. I've been lifting hard and eating right. I feel there's something in the air because I don't usually make it this long either.

im telling you bro this aint no joke, niggas is wizards out here
takes a ridiculous amount of discipline though.

>>40513216
Ill tell you now that this is indeed an expression of the an endstate. SR isnt anywhere near ready for that kind of talk though. alot of them need more time to learn that kind of control.
Sexual energy just straight up overrides fear, and brings courage, by bathing in it and not overdoing the gooning but more or less Micro dosing eros in controled settings you can easily purge the 7 chakras, your baseline emotional state shifting towards complete bliss more then not. And for the most part this is enough.
>Non ejaculatory sex with a female
Both bodies complete the electrical circuit through static electricity. This causes the very real and medically documented Biosynchronicity where heart rates, brain waves, and the EM fields around the body synch up. This connection and the use of conscious sex without ejaculation was critical for Egyptian mystery regarding immortality. When both partners are aware, there is no loss but shared gain. neither one is depleted due to the energetic condition of the other but transmuted.

much more to discuss, but i rarely do because this thread is militant as it should be.

>>40513216
SR in its purest form only works when coupled with hardcore spiritual practise. Where the goal of attaining adepthood is in your mind 24/7, where every action is loaded with intention and at least 1/2 hour a day is spent in meditation (ideally more).
If you're a regular joe, then masturbating every so often (WITHOUT PORN) is fine. Do it slowly, stay present, and it can even be revitalising. On the other hand, this can be draining too. Really depends on your individual makeup.
On the other hand, repressing sexuality and denying that it even exists, is what leads to long streaks that are immediately followed by degen coom sessions. You're still trapped in a cycle, you've just made a new one where the lows are even lower.
Porn is the real enemy for us here. It's porn that conditions you into a twisted and warped form of sexuality, that lacks of passion and is perverse.

Surprisingly no, unless you count pre-cum

I'm not trying to be argumentative here.... all those quotes said was just to....edge? but not at the 9/10 point before cooming, edge in the middle ground? your post implied there was some kinda regimen or process, but those pics just said "edge comfortably for over half an hour" amidst a wall of text
what I'm asking here, is, what's the tldr? cause these picrels are pedantic as hell

Good luck everyone, God be with you, and bless your faith in yourself to overcome the urges, Good job to those who are proud of their abstaining efforts

>>40514274
I would try for a controlled nocturnal emission.
A half hour or so of edging before sleep.
Tuck a towel into shorts like a loincloth.
You may get lucky and have a spermless emission which will drain the glands but leave you feeling energized and not have to deal with weeks of depressant hormones.

8 months is an impressive streak anyways.

>>40513841
No. The data is that a man who eats healthily will lose 50% of his daily zinc intake with a single ejaculation.

Zinc is what is lost the most, but there is also a lot of loss of vitamins B and C and selenium.

I imagine that multiple ejaculations are worse.

Zinc is super important for the production of testosterone. I already take it in pill form, but I didn't know that much was lost. Thanks. I did some research because of the argument with this anon >>40513571

>>40514380

>>40514349
its white tantra for dummies. the idea being that moderate non pornographic sexual stimulation every once in a while, back off far from the edge and then breath work. If you were a yogi youd be sitting back to back with a female practitioner in a cave for a period of time then youd engage in non ejaculatory sex.

you arnt really supposed to suppress the sexual energy. U can as a start because you need that level of commitment in the modern world but once you gain control you can enjoy the pleasure of sexual stimulus and the warmth of eros in the heart without perverting and corrupting it.
This wasn't in his post but that energy then becomes inner fire that guides instead of destroys. to experience the truth of SR is to experience the actual subtle differences between what you think sexual energy is and what it actually is which is creative shakti which includes every single aspect of why you enjoy life, not just sex. Every single childlike emotion and euphoria that you lose in your teens is in there confused entirely for lust.

Its too complicated for SR because saying shit like this causes people to relapse back into old habits and doom spiral trying to justify their porn addiction.

Why edging harms us so much? you lose most of the benefits..

thanks for this rundown. as an ex gooner that's been stark clean for 1.5 years now, i can appreciate all of this on an intuitive level. i consider myself lucky because i had healthy relationships in the past where the sex was "vanilla" in the sense that it was entirely based on love, lifted us up, charged us, turbo amped our lives/luck, made everything glow, made us youthful, childlike, etc. But I've also had fuck buddies where we'd just goon for hours, focus on possession and objectification, amplify the pornographic elements, and I'd be drained, wiped out, life would go to shit, bad luck swirling all around us, we'd age at a nuclear rate, actually lost bone mass, etc.

the difference is indeed subtle at first, but now it's very contrasting to me. sex out of love vs sex in lust truly is white and black

can confirm.

I have really dark brown eyes and at maybe the 3rd or 4th month streak I noticed my eyes brown had turned into a much brighter caramel. As if almost my eyes were trapping more light or processing vision differently now.

This definitely has happened to the mind so I believe the body is reflecting the inner self in subtle ways now too.

going into my 7th month of SR now and thoughts of lust do not exist at all, it takes more effort to will up sexual fantasy than it does to not. A complete reversal of the previous gooner mindset I had

im about three months in and ill fuck anything. i saw a tranny in the store and i got a raging hardon. even old bitches are starting to look good. i want to kill animals and eat them raw. exercise has only increased my desire

yep, this is the process. Happened to me to at that stage. You are on the cutting edge of discovering something great you if you do not cave in. This is when you are tested the most. Pass this test and in 1-2 months you will become a new person.

>>40515563
I had a grandma invite me over to her place and she started rubbing her tits on my arm. Honestly stages 3-4 month of SR were by far the craziest and hardest because the mind is on this breaking point of wanting to give up, being thrown pussy from all directions and yet the mind has not found the self to calm through the storm.

This is the storm, the calm is coming if you don't fuck it up.

They're plenty of anon advocating for a middle ground here, but indeed not the majority and there is always a cultist to attack their integrity.

At one point I was considering doing 12+ days at a time because it was when I usually past my first peaks but I fund myself in a conundrum: when your libido and energy is high you don't want to relapse to not lost it, when your low you don't want to because there is no desires. And then after this the days pile up and I don't really want to "lost" the streak (which is a kind of problematic attachment in itself).

Currently on the mid of a 100days " challenge " and had none of the higher perceptions I've got from previous streaks and am considering going back to shorter streaks afterwards.

Well. Uh back to day one for me.

>>40516515
I think it all comes down to porn addiction. There are nofap militants, semen retention militants, and gradients below that. I think the root of all of this is porn addiction is a serious problem obviously. And in my opinion if you’re with holding sex from your gf of wife to obtain SR, i dont know man, I feel like at that point youve lost the plot. I haven’t been able to pull off an impressive streak, 30 days was my longest one, and at 30 days I literally would have fucked roseanne barr with a full hard-on I was that horny it was sick, maybe if I would have kept going that primal urge would have gone away but I never made it past 30 days and I just relapsed so now I am back at day zero after like a 10 day streak.

>>40516273
I've seen this same topic in every SR thread about this.

It is different for different people.
Some guys do not realise they are chads until after they SR.

You gotta dress well, groom, use your confidence, speech, body language. Your entire existence needs to adapt with you.

It's not just SR = women magnetism
You still have to put in the work, the SR lets you become a chad if you take the action.

I got girls in highschool/primary school but by the time I hit college I had become self isolating shy person that didn't even look at women or engage at all.

Now I've rediscovered my true self, I don't give any care in the world at anything I do as long as my actions follow my values now. I welcome all discomfort in my life, I enjoy it immensely now, give me all the awkward people and awkward moments. I revel in it because I just don't care due to knowing myself and my values on such a deep level internally.

I work a normal job and see people daily, I sometimes look disgusted, smile, sad, ignore, happy, whatever I want. I've gone through every emotion as a test on women I see. You can do whatever you want if you stop caring about what people will think of you or their validation.
I validate my entire being myself, I know my worth because I stick to my core values and this is all I need.

This is why magnetism works, I literally don't care anymore but the key is that I will also engage and stare into anyones eyes that stares into mine and pretend I am listening intently like I am interested in what they have to say. And sometimes I actually am interested in what they have to say but the point is. Portray yourself as a magnetism person and you will become magnetic. It is not rocket science guys.

Embody what you want and it will happen. It is very easy to do if you decide you want to do it.

How retardedly easy this is to do is as simple as thinking what you want and doing what you want.
Stop being an awkward fuck and start not caring about what people think
