You're Pretty Good edition

Welcome to the Semen Retention General!

>What is Semen Retention?
Semen retention is the practice of completely abstaining from masturbation and ejaculation, often with the intention of preserving and redirecting vital and sexual energy to oneself.

>Why do it?
Reported benefits include: increased vitality, mental clarity, reduced stress, increased motivation, increased energy, improved focus, healthier hair/skin/eyes, deeper meditation, improved AP/Lucid Dreams, deeper voice, improved mood, greatly improved testosterone, improved physical strength and many more.

>Wet Dreams?
They happen because you had a sexual dream and you coomed. Learn to be conscious on your dreams and stop the succubus.

>What causes wet dreams?
The causes are many: Illnesses, telepathic bad actors fucking with your dreams, excess energy build up, watching too much sexually-inducing stuff, lusting during the day, lack of an adequate transmutation activity, eating too late at night, excess nutrients overall, stimulants like maca, ginseng, ginger, excess protein, excess carbs, tight clothes (pajamas) for bedtime, bad sleeping posture (this varies, find the one that suits you best), going to bed with full bladder, exposure to hormonal disruptors via food (pesticides...) or body care products (soap, deodorant etc)...

>Day 1
Many several fundamental problems that need fixing...

Ive avoided it a few days now, and I noticed I can only start truly abstaining when I completely reject any and all temptations. Any lewd image or perverted idea, if I immediately just ignore it I suddenly lose all desire for that sort of thing and I overcome it right away. It's like a boost in the right direction, and all it requires is your choice.

Flee from temptation bros.

>just close your eyes, stick your fingers in your ears and go lalalalalalala instead of confronting your biological urges and sexual issues

>>40644527 (OP)
This man was likely jerking it off to Naked Snake's interrogation scene every night.

>Day 7
Last night was a little bit of a struggle, especially when ugly girls are starting to look more and more attractive it's harder and harder to escape being horny on the internet

I feel better about myself, I am walking with confidence and people are noticing. I've never been one to care about the opinions of others, however people are talking to me more, giving me compliments more and just listening to me more. Friends that I were not that close with or friends of friends who disliked me have started to talk and laugh with me.

It's all been strange, the strangest part is that I rewatched The Matrix in 4K and the day after I see a van with "The Matrix" whatever business, I was like oh that's funny I wonder if I would have saw that if I didn't watch the movie, then after I get back to the office, my boss gives me a choice of two slushies the Red Slushy or the Blue Slushy I kid you not, obviously I took the Red Slushy but that has made me question some things, would any of this happened if I didn't watch The Matrix the day before?

>>40644879

I visited the same thread 8-9 months ago and totally BTFO'd you. You sound like the same OP. I can't imagine how miserable your life must be that I come back here after so long and see u keeping it going. Lmao.

I just coomed 4 times last evening. I slept like a baby. Today my mind is clear.. Physical energy may be low but physical energy is worthless in this world. Only a clear mind will get you success. Porn helps that. Without my base animal cravings, I become an enlightened being.

Woman holds no power over me, unlike you the self-cuckolding circus monkey.

There's a reason pee and sperm come out of the same hole. Keep going. I'll keep coming back each year to bully you lmao.

>>40644935
nope I've been here for 2 weeks at best, seems like you're projecting a little there buddy, you're life seems very sad! Wish you all the best really I know it's hard getting out of the house and doing something with your life but I believe you can! Good luck op and stop projecting your own insecurities on to other people, you might actually develop as a person.

>>40644935
>I visited the same thread 8-9 months ago and totally BTFO'd you

Imagine this being one of the highlights of your year KEK

>>40644923
by "nobody" you mean (You)? i can't imagine the person who would have difficulty understanding what I was saying. This is why you will fail at retention, you can't even comprehend basic and coherent ideas.

>>40644935
my nigga you sound more insane than semen retainers

>>40644903
And yet you're failing 5x as much based on what you're saying here. At least we're trying

>>40644935
Excellent example of what no SR does to someone, they're clearly mentally unwell and coping very hard in the fact they can't control their own urges

Learn from this sub human

>>40645027
>And yet you're failing 5x as much based on what you're saying here
whatever helps you cope! you guys are impossible to get through to, so many anons have tried to help you guys escape the stupid cycle you get stuck in and really make SR a worthwhile practice that works for you. and every time you guys shit on them or rebuke them just to get stuck in the cycle of counting days, relapsing, crying, coping, counting days, relapsing etc.

What's anons' views on SR when married?

Obviously I enjoy sex (and feel obliged to satisfy my wife's needs), and since I can't dry orgasm, I am still discharging.

One thing that I've noticed is that sex does not seem to scratch the same itch as masturbation, so there is a sense in which the challenge is still there, along with its "pressure" and temptation. I wonder if by cumming from real sex instead of masturbation the benefits would still materialise?
We're not teens, therefore not fucking every day, if that matters.

>>40645089
why the fuck do you care so much about what another man does and doesn't do with his dick, you sounding like a major faggot

>>40645125
this whole gay thread is talking about what we and others do with our dicks lol i'm not an anomaly here. it's cus SR and even no-fap works and i want other anons to benefit from it but see them struggle and fail - i actually do care about anons. does that answer your question? i imagine if you correctly interpreted that I was pro-SR you wouldn't be so concerned about why I care.

>>40644935
BASED, these incels thinking that avoiding their instinctual sexual desires will make them get laid lmao. This is actually a very bad thing in the long term, when they get reality checked, not only they will repress themselves for who knows how long untill they get a long streak, but then they will get depressed when they realize they get nothing out of it. The so called "Flatline" which they dont understand , cause they dont understand psychology...

these threads are fucking garbage now. any actual retainers should waste a second longer on these. ill see you all actual retainers and those who do know what we're actually doing here in heaven someday

>>40645142
>The so called "Flatline" which they dont understand , cause they dont understand psychology...
can you explain it please?

>>40645105
As long as you ejaculate inside your wife's vagina, you're great. This is Church teaching.

>>40645142
well masturbating a lot certainly didn't help me get laid

God help me, why can't I stop? I cant go one day. I'm disgusted the entire time I watch it. Its all so disgusting. I cant believe how many creepy rapist tier dudes ive watched fuck girls in videos. Im ashamed i want to stop so bad. Never once has porn ever satisfied. It only takes

>>40644935
>t.

>>40644935
Last time i coomed 4 times i fell in deep nightamre sleep and woke up feeling like a shell of a human being,kys reddit cuck you watch others have sex hahahahaha

>>40645354
you don't have any sex at all lol

Day 62

day 152

>see u keeping it going
that's the entire message, why are you keeping it going, OP? WHY?

I only masturbated for 5 minutes yesterday (noporn, nocum). Let's see if I can do 10 minutes or more today (noporn, nocum).

Why can't I do this? What am I missing? The withdrawals are fucking insane for me for some reason.

>>40645667

its not worth it
the drive to succeed is completely gone

>Day 1
>After 3 bad days this past week I'm feeling much more resilient
>Excited about making saw horses and other wood shop stuffs next week when I have 3 days off

I'm nearing 90 days and I'm in a situation with a co-worker who's into findom. She basically degrades men physically, spiritually and financially. Like a dumbass, I told her I'm on retention and now she's after me BAD. I kicked it with her in the parking lot at work and we talked about ourselves. She said it's all an act. She's gotten handsy with me a couple times. Grabbed my junk twice. A part of me - the flesh - deeply desires her. This girl is a baddie. Gorgeous. On the other hand, I feel like my soul is ringing the alarm bells and wants me to run. I'm pretty sure this is a real life succubus that the enemy sends your way once it sees that you're not falling for the same old tricks like you used to.

>>40646087
Toy with her it will drive her mad

>>40646087
paranormal aside why would you even want to engage sexually with either
>A co-worker
>someone who does findom
let alone someone who is both.

How do you guys balance exercising/food/testosterone with retention. For me retention is easy but if I start doing cardio and working out every day and eating high quality eggs in the morning and steak at night the need to have sex or jerk off becomes insane.

I only found cold showers help, what else can I do because the test boost is great but becomes overpowering

>>40646087
Just imagine her shitting. Also imagine all the cocks that have been inside her, some of which may be of a foreign persuasion. Also imagine that trauma she went through to become a salacious whore like that and pray for her.

>>40646183
I eat like shit desu and I need to change that (I just had a pizza for 3rd this week) but I exercise a lot and take supplements for anything i'm missing

Meditation helps with the urges, Cold showers as you said help, distract yourself with a book

>>40646087
she wants your energy, simple as

>>40646215

>>40646190
She said she only sucked ~8 cocks and she doesn’t sleep around. As fun as it was to get to know her for that brief moment, I can’t trust anything she says.

>>40644527 (OP)
disgusting story time/questions

how do I reset my sex drive/sexuality? I have been exposed to porn at 10 yo, and watched it basically daily until now, age 23. The few times I had sex it didn't feel right, the first time I did nofap for a month and I was able to get hard but I wasn't able to finish, even though it did feel pretty good. The next time with a different girl I couldn't even get hard, she was less attractive but still I figured I should be as as stiff as an arrow. I have done noporn for 1-2 months before but it never sticks, it doesn't feel like its healing me fast enough. I don't even get morning wood anymore. And I am addicted to big ass, literally cumming only to big ass for 12 years, missionary doesn't appeal nearly as much to me. I just feel fucked, I want to be a normal man. How do I overcome this? Am I supposed to just not look at nudity for 3+ months? Did you go through something similar? need to hear some success stories

>>40645323
Maybe thats the way. Remind yourself how bad you will feel afterwards, how it doesn't feel that great, how its never worth it.

>>40646254
I’m friends with many women and they all lie about their number. I know one girl with 40+ bodies (she keeps count and writes all their names down), but she tells men that it’s less than 10. So don’t trust that.

Besides findom sounds thoroughly unpleasant no matter how attractive she might be. Your lowest low would be to break a streak to get your nuts stepped on while you beg for mercy. Sounds horrid.

>>40646254
multiply by 3 for women and divide by 3 for men.

>days clean: 5 days and 6 hours
>mood: energized, horny and lonely
>comments: was close to jerking off to fantasy today but urge went away

Bros, this works. I manifested a cute korean gf through retaining for a month.

If I bottom for a huge dick or suck out cum like my life depends on it does it boost my SR

is prolactin the reasons your nipples become really sensitive when you're aroused?
>>40646292
divide by 0 for most anons here

>>40646365
based thelemite

The flatlines never go away for me. What am I doing wrong?

Any Christian anons understand why God says nocturnal emissions means you must leave the tent? Deuteronomy 23:10
It's like God is saying wet dreams are sinful or bring bad things to other

>>40644527 (OP)
Is there a supernatural connection between SR and law of assumption/manifestation? I have practiced SR sparingly over the last few years with little faith in it. Some of the stuff that has happened during those times are incredible and have zero logical explanation. Including the repeating numbers. People reaching out, etc. Right now I'm on a bad spell life wise but I was wondering.

>>40646399
Life giving fluids were considered sacred, same prohibitions with blood related stuff.

>>40646399
>OT

>>40646394
are you doing anything else like transmuting that energy? working on creative endeavors? MEditating? Learning new skills? Working out? LEarning martial arts or anything else?

>>40646399
It's a cleanliness thing.

>>40646539
yes, to all but martial arts sadly. i don't think that's gonna be the big difference maker. don't get me wrong i know when the enegry is high and how to direct it but after about 3 or 4 weeks it just tanks and i start to feel like shit. i haven't made it past a month in that state though, do i need to push through longer? it feels like hell. i also can't lie and say that cumming doesn't reset it .

>>40646500
I believe so. Around day 40 i was thinking about how i needed a charging outlet and sure enough they manifested about halfway up the wall. Just after that two scantily clad girls made their way through the door.

The masculine essence is that of the in-finite, the endless irresolvability, the ... . The female is that of the eternal, the never changing nothingness. By the union of these forces, the infinite nothingness, is the unity observed, the universe. Each day of SR concenrates the irresolbability of the inifinite making it desparitly spill in strange ways according to attention

>>40646399
It means go outside and purify the area of evil. At that time you had to go to the Preist tell him what happened and he would purify the tent.

Because if Jesus every Christian is Priest, Prophet and King which means you just purify yourself and your room.

Make sense?

>>40646601
I think that's the dopamine widrawal dude. It's fucked up but you have accustomed your brain to so many dopamine spikes it's just trying to reset at baseline at that point. Just keep at it.

>>40646719
IDK about all that but. IT just makes sense. SR brings synchronicities of its own. That with actions taken in the real world and manifestation just make sense,

>>40646223
and that scene was also ripped off from another show you fuckin retard

>>40646937
jew

>>40645323
Get out of this website entirely, go for a walk in nature, get a job, get a hobby, some friends, and never look back.

SR is making me want to find a huge cock and suck it.

>>40646314
Keep it up, anon. The cool thing about urges is that they usually don't last long. But once you entertain urges, that can turn into an obsession that can dog you all day.

What helps me stop urges from turning into an obsession is acknowledging it without shame. Telling myself something like "Hey I'm having an urge right now. It's totally naturally and I know it's going to go away soon". Then go on with my day

>>40647006
you're a faggot, that's not SR fault

I said it once, I'll say it again. The modern pornography infested culture is straight up evil, it hurts marriages, children, men, women, kids, nations. The best thing about semen retention is that you're no longer participate in this evil. Your conscience is clear, everything else is rather a side effect.

>>40647155

>SR only works when god allows you to cum
cmon man, i'm not even trying to shit on your beliefs today but to pretend that all the shit here >>40647365 is irrelevant cus only god decides whther you get SR benefits is really fucking stupid. Do you really think there aren't any non-religious benefits of retaining? That the effects of SR don't exist if you're married?

i just did some pranic breathing, pulling the energy up my spine. the pleasure was activated, but nothing too out of the ordinary. i pulled the energy up my spine, but it was nothing special. then about 20 minutes later i started shaking and my heartrate went up like i had just done a huge sprint. wtf happened

everyone in this thread needs to read this book.
it's on libgen
tldr: orgasms initiate relationship self-destruct sequence. Makes you and your partner much more likely to fight, break up, cheat, etc.
Sex can and should be had, but without orgasm unless trying for procreation.

Just press the SR button it's easy

>>40647936
How do you not know what Dragon Ball is

give me some esoteric ways to succeed at this because it's not working. preferably not involving selling soul

if it take 5 months to spend 1 night with a mid girl form dating app, how long till I get my first gf?

5 days in and have been supplementing zinc for like the past 15-20 days. Had a couple streaks during that time as well. Think im getting too much zinc and keeping too much of it. Stopping the supplement now.

Strangely you know how when you have some vitamin deficiency you tend to naturally seek out certain foods. I was feeling weird so decided to grab a copper cup that I havent used in like 5 years. Apparently too much zinc makes you low on copper. Im hoping this is all it is and retention and supplements are enough to throw zinc levels all out of whack.

>>40644935
Tis me again.

Nice try OP but since I coom on the regs like twice daily, I also have visited prostitutes 20+ times (hand, mouth only no intercourse stuff), my mind is extremely clear and so is my memory power and I know it was you doing the same thread a year ago and now. It's pathetic.

Also. Hold in your coom for what? The 3/10 coworker? The 4/10 cashier? The 4/10 next door milf?

Face it OP, you know it and everyone itt knows that the ALPHA women only do PORN. or it's equivalent softcore porn : music, movies and games.

The rest are all BETA women who don't deserve your seed or energy. You want to get laid? Show me the girl and I'll show you a pornstar 10x hotter than her who won't give you a shit time and is a much nicer person.

I'd rather coom to a 10/10 pornstar ALPHA FEMALE than KEK MYSELF to a calendar streak just to have "numb intercourse" With some 3/10 slut lmfaooooo ahahahahahah losers

>>40648164
this is your brain on porn

If you were looking for a reason to quit, consider this your reason >>40648164

I'm on day 3. Lets see how this goes.

are extreme mood swings to be expected when doing this? im going insane right now

>>40648084
>it take 5 months to spend 1 night with a mid girl
You can maybe skip that part

>>40648475
Yes mood swings occur within the first week. You brain is going through withdrawals. I've said some pretty insane things to people when I'm on nofap.
It goes away just try not to have negative emotional responses to things.

Just read this now and it's like old-timey clickbait (shit) so I'm going to quote what amounts to a summary on page 152 for other anons.
>Instead of “holding the thought” of sexually exciting things, you should hold the mind firmly and steadily upon the regenerative offices of the sexual organism — its re-generative functions, not its generative ones. The ideal should be that of Conservation and Regeneration, not of indulgence, dissipation and the thoughts and objects leading up to them.
To rephrase this (and the earlier unquoted context), the author believes that studying nature suggests that expulsion of semen is for "generative" purposes (creating outward life) whereas holding semen in can be used for "regenerative" purposes (creating inward life) if one has the right mindset about it and lets nature do its healing work (due to the unique ability of the human mind to influence a body's health for good or for ill).

>>40644935
enjoy your low levels of energy then. must be fun living like that. btw physical and mental energy are the same, you cant separate them

>>40648829
>physical and mental energy are the same

No they aren't and you are a midwit if you think so. The mental is above the physical it's a hierarchy it's not the same.

>>40648829
The CEO never listens to the employees, the President doesn't cares about beggars and hookers.

>>40645105
I'm doing SR when married. My wife loves it honestly lol. When I was masturbating I would probably have sex with her once every 3 nights and pretty much ignore her the rest of the time. Since retention I touch her much more and we cuddle a lot more. Much more bonding really. I also feel obligated to get her off so I will eat her out till she orgasms and have started having dry sex with her afterwards where I will insert myself, but pull out before ejactulation.
I heard someone refer to that as bonding sex before and I want to say it really is. It feels like a teenage relationship again. Way more passion. We'll make out before and after vs before we would usually have a peck here or there.
We do things more often as well since my lobido is higher and it still acts as a sexual outlet for me. I get all the benefits of retention and am about 2 months in at this point. The only negative aspect really is the blue balls after can be painful, but I usually just massage my pelvic floor and it goes away.

>>40649193
>till she orgasms
Bonding sex can't involve orgasm because orgasm triggers habituation, i.e. the hormonal response which works to repel partners.
You're on the right track otherwise, read >>40647889

>>40650039
that depends, what do you want to do? If you want to use your natural psychic powers to defend yourself now would be a good time to open your 3rd eye through meditation.

Fair warning though... once you open it, it becomes hard to close unless you calcify it again. You will basically be in the 'Truman Show" from now on and everything will be super weird.

>>40649298
>orgasm triggers habituation, i.e. the hormonal response which works to repel partners.
maybe the case for men, but i disagree for women

Has anyone read The Coiled Serpent?
>https://ia802800.us.archive.org/19/items/TheCoiledSerpent/The_Coiled_Serpent.pdf
The pastebin claims it's "a 'starter-pack' book of basically everything you need to know about SR" but after getting a tenth of the way through I am not impressed and struggling to get over the author's idea that sex is strictly for procreation. Can I continue reading for general information related to semen retention or is everything in The Coiled Serpent connected to that one idea?

Day 48
Some other anon started right around when I did and usually posts the lotr meme and it's dope because then I don't have to look at the calendar.
Most youtube SR people talk about how everything tends to go your way on SR, and that is not the case for me. I have encountered so much bullshit this time around it feels like nothing is going my way. It doesn't matter though, it is as if I have a tailwind with everything I do, and I am mentally sturdy as fuck. Indestructible. Determination that is incorruptible.

I quit working out, got fat and lost self esteem. I went so passive that I wouldnt even want to talk to people. I constantly feel weak and often even unable to get my ass out of any lay. not even overweight. I feel no energy at all. I always get tired so quick and get sleepy every other hour.

found a work to pastime and make some paper, but the second day I was aching in every joint and backside. had to quit and now im lingering energyless at home.

>>40646399
Since you are talking about wet dreams I want to bring this up. I have no scientific evidence for this but just my own experience. I use to believe that maybe there really were succubus's causing me to have wet dream because I use to have like 4-5 a month when I started SR. Over a year later and I now only get maybe 1 a month or 1 every 2 months now.

I think the reason many guys struggle with wet dreams is simply because of muscle memory. When you were a coomer you would flex your prostate when you came for probably many years, Those muscle memories have developed so when you flex your prostate it is sending signals to your brain to cum. So when you are dreaming and have horny thoughts you start unconsciously flexing your prostate again telling your brain it's time to ejaculate.

However over time as you stop masturbating your brain will slowly rewire to not associate prostate flexes with ejaculation. So to any guy worrying about nocturnal emissions, don't worry about them and just stick to it, your brain is slowly rewiring.

>>40651250

Its more than possible there are multiple reasons people experience nocturnal emissions. If you expose yourself to sexual thoughts or imagery while on SR you will likely have sexual dreams. I won't discount physical mechanisms as you described as well.

However, I was having sexual dreams frequently in the past during SR (I'm currently on a roughly 2 year streak now. It might be quite a bit over that actually its been so long I don't remember and I don't really count) and found that prayer to Lord Jesus Christ and specifically asking Him to for protection and that if evil was present in my dreams that He would guide me to automatically call on His name in the dream state which banishes said evil.

Without fail He has done just that for me countless times and He will do it for you for all if one asks. Have faith and believe on Him. One needs to be vigilant with prayer though each night before sleep. Succubi or entities of some type are highly attracted to your life force energy and want it more or less.


Many times in the past I would wake up as well before orgasm but with the rising build up one feels prior to orgasm and found that I could stop the rising build up by simply jumping out of bed, inhaling a deep breath through my nose and holding it, flexing my PC muscle holding that, and then start walking around my apartment. I found moving my legs would by walking quickly helped quell it. Do all that simultaneously.

You can also do exercises that strengthen the PC and adjacent muscles. Basically practice flexing and holding the muscles you use defecate and urinate for 15 seconds then release. Repeat in multiple sets. Eventually working up to flexing as hard as you can for extended periods. Of course move SLOWLY with the progress. You don't want to over work those muscles before they are strong.

Strengthening those in general will help you be more resilient to wet dreams.

wtf is going on, i did a 100 day streak and for the past like 4 months i cant get more than 2 weeks, i always say this time its different after relapse but somehow always relapse, i just stop thinking and jerk off wtf

>>40651874
Practice being mindful

>>40651364
I sometimes get intense lust as I'm trying to fall asleep (wtf?) and will pray, and have yet to have a wet dream after 5 months of SR.

>>40647521
That's not really my point. I said it's Church teaching because this is the moral way to orgasm. You're bonding with your life partner and allowing life to be created out of it. This is what sex is for.
As far as benefits go, I don't know, but for me it's linked, in a way. You use your sexual organs incorrectly (masturbating, fucking random girls...), you get "bad" consequences. You use sex correctly, you're probably fine. And as that anon said he's not having sex constantly anyways.
Sure you're probably wasting that energy and all, but since it's used morally, I'd say it's balancing pretty well. Of course he can retain as much as he wants as a married man if he feels like he's benefitting from it, but again as he said, he doesn't feel like he's losing merely as much as if he was masturbating.
I didn't mean to make this all religious and all it's just my own lens and I thought it was an interesting perspective. I'm speaking as a Catholic so for things like that I always go to Church doctrine and I feel like what the Church says and what SR says go together perfectly. Basically "don't coom, but if you're gonna, put it to good use."

bloated video that i disagree with. none of Schopenhauer's points are true if men mastered their awareness of being carried away by their emotions, didn't simp for women and treated them a little more harshly, less like princesses. he's right about women being oriented towards short term instinct and wanting to secure resources and survival, but the out of balance nature regarding marriage is just a by product of the modern perversion of the institution. I'm not saying we need to go back to treating women like property and restricting their free will, but the scales have gone way out of balance obviously, even by Schopenhauer's time. his mother issues are evident and he spent a lifetime of using his intelligence to fortify his emotional wounding

Plenty of studies have shown that women are similarly affected.
Of course there is variation across individuals, and probably across races, but on average, when you give a woman an orgasm you make her less attracted to you, and more attracted to strangers.

>>40644935
>Only a clear mind will get you success. Porn helps that. Without my base animal cravings, I become an enlightened being.
inb4 bait but idk man some self discipline does wonders and porn just feels like lower realm shit. My awakening didnt involve jooming and when I once met a noble spirit in this world and was intimate with them I knew that keeping to purity was worth it. Everyone should chase their ideal of the worthwhile struggle to get better.

Day 6. Been really working on my business this past week. By being obedient, and diligent, God has heard my prayers about financial struggle. I think my sales in my side business were projected at about $6k per year. Looking like I might be pushing closer to $20k now. Should be around $10k profit. Its not a lot, but its enough to hopefully fix the financial problem I was in + leave some room to hopefully grow more.

Dont coom guys. Theres better uses of your time. I want to stay on this path and im sure theres even better stuff ahead. Praise be to Jesus Christ

I just found out about "semen leakage" -I feel retarded for not knowing sooner BUT I feel reassured (I know why I wasn't getting godly results- it's not SR's fault)
>Involuntary semen leakage occurs during strained pooping, poop during fasting, intense exercise, etc a MERE erection sends Seed to the urethra and then it leaks out along pee

>>40654225
It's prostate/seminal/cowpers fluid but does not contain sperm.
Ejaculatory contractions are required to bring sperm from testes into the mix.
It's better to leak the fluid in this way to relieve pressure than to have a nocturnal emission with loss of sperm and bad hormonal response. Human evolved to shit while squatting which more effectively clears excess fluids than if sitting.

I will note dreams can also be heavily influenced by EMFs, RFs, and technology as well. A general dream like script or outline can be planted as you slumber wirelessly to some degree.

Basically cultivating prana/life force energy can also draw the attention of humans as well.

But as I said the power of Christ overcomes all. Just be steadfast and pray.

>when you give a woman an orgasm you make her less attracted to you, and more attracted to strangers.
Nta. Naaah you need to literally drop the links proving these crazy claims. How are women not going to be attracted to a man that satisfies her sexually? Women literally cheat to get fucked good if their parents can't, you think a women would be in a relationship with a man without a dick? You are retarded. Women crave dick, that's why lesbians don't exist, they are hardwired to crave dick. What about women that orgasm when they are raped and keep thinking about the raper? You don't even realize the implications of your statement. It's totally the opposite, women just literally need to get fucked good and they will be submissive to you and obey you and be the perfect female for you etc. women energy/bodies are different from men, they don't lose energy perse as men do when having orgasms, this shit too deep for you and i don't wanna waste my time typing too much for a retard that thinks if you make a women orgasm shes gonna be lees attracted to you lol.

I've read most of it. the book is horrendously repetitive, could be condensed to 30 pages, and those "studies" might as well be called swiss cheese, cause they're full of holes.
again, maybe the book is wrong. in my 40 years on this planet, observing my parents, other peoples parents, friends in serious relationships, friends going on fuck-a-thons, rich friends, poor, american, european, asian, co workers, everyone, woman's orgasm strengthens the bond, intensifies chemistry, and amplifies psychic connection. it takes serious, hardcore, insane amounts of shit going down for the woman to leave the man at that point, as it's usually the man breaking it off after orgasms have compounded. once i make a girl orgasm there is a night vs day difference in our chemistry and relationship that anyone else can pick up on

sometimes books are written by boomers with calcified, closed minds that are just cherry picking shit for confirmation bias.

What does a string of bad luck on a fairly long sr streak mean? I don't count days anymore but I must be nearing 30 days, if I had to guess. Serious question. Not a shill.

Restraining from orgasms does wonders for both genders.

>>40655397
The Coolidge effect is real. It may be more pronounced in males than in females, but it's still there. Orgasm = dopamine, and with dopamine, novelty reigns supreme. Orgasm neurochemistry habituates a person to the present mate and increases their attraction to NEW potential mates.

In today's society the female initiates the break-up in the majority of relationships. Considering the cultural focus on the female's pleasure these days I doubt it's because she's not receiving enough orgasms.

Told that one findom girl at work not to touch me anymore and that I’m glad I met her and that she taught me about the deeper nature of women and the games they play. Told her there’s a bright side to everything.

Her response,

“You’re bipolar.”

Classic deflection and shaming

Imagine after all the nights of praying and begging God to get me out of the lust trap, after him helping and answering my prayers, building me up, I spit in his face, turn my back to him and lay with a literal whore. I would take on all the evil spirits/energy she’s carrying and she would revel in the fact that she managed to break a disciplined guy with her control and manipulation. FUCK. THAT.

>Orgasm = dopamine, and with dopamine, novelty reigns supreme.
yes, and for the woman, that dopamine is associated with her current mate

>In today's society the female initiates the break-up in the majority of relationships

I think I've found our disconnect. you're quoting mass statistics from the internet, of which is based off the average person/relationship. have you met the average person? cringe. I'm stating evidence from living a life that's not exactly orbiting Wal Mart, Netflix, and working at XYZ office corp llc as some cubicle monkey.

>>40655686
>with dopamine, novelty reigns supreme
maybe for junkies on drugs. dopamine isn't a one dimensional experience for the brain. orgasm also induces oxytocin in the female that strengthens bonding (think child birth). on top of all of this, there's a multilayered relationship that the orgasm stems from. so unless she's some white girl music festival slag getting buttfucked by a different chad every weekend, sex to orgasm is replenishing her emotional connection. there are countless books from the SR pastebin that dictate how orgasm with ejaculation depletes the man, but invigorates the woman

He does waffle on, seems to have a bit of insight. He also has a spiritual channel. He seems alright, at least, he's not insufferable and his videos are just him straight up; no editing, which is rare on YT it seems. I would watch it for his advice on lust and dealing with women, seems like a lot of guys could benefit to hear what he has to say on that subject.

>>40655977
There arent really true "retainers" anyway. Very few of us actually succeed at SR long term.

>>40644527 (OP)
Do any of you guys meditate/pray 10+ minutes daily while on SR? I KNOW There's serious synergy because back when I would just still and think of nothing for like 10 minutes the rest of the day id experience a ton of synchronicities. Im christian now so I just focus on Jesus sitting in his throne in heaven watching over me in stillness and ive noticed enhanced focused so far and am on day 74 of sr. But if you're higher level and prayer and focus and a long streak youre probably objectively experiencing spiritual phenomena on a daily basis

I may have lost my longest streak in a while but there is no crying over spilled milk as that just makes things worse.

We are going to make it.

>>40655434
I've been getting constant bad luck and encountering a lot of conflict as well. In my case I can see that relatively soon I need a new job and a new social circle. My employer is going under and my friends are terminally negative which I am now constantly in conflict with. People are demanding more from me at the same time I am unyielding when it comes to defining and maintaining firm personal boundaries. I see endless little ways that things are failing because people aren't putting in adequate effort for social fabric to hold together without me either looking the other way or putting in more energy than they are. I call shit out as soon as I see it constantly and it's wearing thin on my friends and I'm aware that I'm becoming an asshole in the dynamic, acting more like a dad than a friend, but I could give a fuck if they want to shuffle off and be bitter and depressed because as grown men they fail to figure out the difference between social and antisocial behavior.

So really I dunno what it is. One anon says it's demons. I'm not about that demon paradigm, but I can very acutely read the quality of people and in general it's looking pretty grim. I was always aware but I am unable to ignore it anymore

I'm on day 6. It's been easy so far, mostly because I wasn't even trying for the first 4 days, I just remembered that I hadn't coomed and decided to keep the streak up.

This happened to me a few times too, word for word. I think it's your brain subconsciously wanting to do that since you're so used to it, so it recreates it.

>you're more stressed than usual which leads to disease?
I'm less stressed when I retain and more stressed (and sick) when I don't. Your logic doesn't make any sense based on my (and many other's) actual experiences.

>>40655891
>orgasm also induces oxytocin in the female that strengthens bonding
sex without orgasm produces oxytocin as well, and it's a stronger bond because satiety is not induced. You're not dealing with the dopamine drop and prolactin spike which fucks up her moods for weeks - women suffer the same long-term shit that men do after relapse.

>>40655812
There are coomers who come into this thread saying that SR has no positive effect or makes them feel terrible. Maybe in their case it's true, but we need to understand the rule, not the exception.
We understand the rule through understanding the underlying biology. Dopamine spikes at orgasm then flatlines, prolactin floods the system and remains for weeks. This all suppresses testosterone. Prolactin is 4x higher after orgasm with a partner. This all makes sense from a biological perspective - the mating is done, time to move on. The male immediately finds the female less appealing. In females there is more of a time delay because it's in her interest to keep the mate around while pregnant/weaning, but after that she becomes more and more repulsed with every orgasm, because nature wants her to have multiple baby daddy since increased genetic variety = higher chance of survival. Same way nature wants men to impregnate multiple females.

lost count but over 250 days SR.

I feel good? I feel normal. I made it but now being normal makes me want to start gooning again? I feel fixed from this disease and I want to re-engage it.

I feel as if I have defeated cooming so I can allow myself to coom again. Like a defeated addiction.


I know this is bait but I want to illustrate to others here how demonic our own thoughts can be to trick us into giving in.
> so I will not be listening to my own thoughts, I am watching my body think these thoughts but my mind sits above my body to control it from an unbias vantage point.

No matter how much you want to give in, no matter how strong the urges get. Just remember who you are and it will protect you.

>>40658361
Dont do that, your new normal baseline is miles ahead of where you were before your current streak, you’re just used to it so you don’t realize it. Keep going. If you have to release, at least do it inside a woman instead of with your hand.

Silence. God was trying to tell me to Silence everything, put away the phone, get away from media and just basknin Silence.

Commit to 15 minutes of Silence no excessive breathing don't even try to think. Just talk from your mind to God (The Universe, Creator, Prime Mover, ect. If you aren't Christian) and just lay it all out.

Warning the first time you really do this might get a little heated or even emotional. You will be facing yourself and all the bad things that happened as well as your mistakes. You need to make peace with yourself and then you will start to recognize the blessings.

This is why I said just 15 minutes of Silence. It is simple anyone can do it. It isn't incredibly long or tough to accomplish and if you can do more just do more.

>>40656493
I'm trying to meditate 20 minutes a day on breath meditation, and then a brief root channeling meditation (Visualilze energy going from groin up spine into my forehead whiel breathing in, hold breath while focusing on energy in forehead for 25 seconds, repeat 3 times).
I'll give results later, I'm hoping this plus SR are fruitful.

>>40644527 (OP)
I will always practice no-fap, semen retention or whatever you call it. Always after 7 days I notice a change in myself. A lowering of the voice, an increase in confidence, libido, Upright posture, ability to maintain a gaze without shame, and most importantly in my case - eyes shining like stars in the sky.
I know this will sound like a fairy tale to many, after all, you don't have to trust an anonymous person from the internet, but having those sparkling eyes I notice that many women seek eye contact with me and smile at me. Masturbating regularly I was treated like air, like nobody, but after just 7 days I feel like a chad. I am treated differently, women want to talk to me, they start conversations, they even laugh at my unfunny jokes, something that has been unattainable for me for most of my life, as I have been an addict since I was 12 years old.
But I know one thing, this is the right way. And I will never get off it. I may do a relapse, I don't hide it and I don't fool myself, it's hard for me to do more than 60 days, but I know it's worth it.
I have read on the Internet the opinions of people who wrote that after 30 days they did not feel any difference, and it is hard for me to believe this, given my own experience, perhaps these people do edging, or watch pornography, which should also be excluded. I don't know that, what I do know is that it works for me.
Currently day 6 btw.

not really SR related but I was smoking to cope with my loneliness and I quit smoking 2 weeks ago, don't have any nicotine carving because been hitting someones vape here and where. But my sleep is really bad and I can't really fix it, I'm depressed and my skin is in really bad shape. Should I stars smoking again so I can quit after I deal with my loneliness? or what the solution? (somewhere 3+ weeks of SR if it matter, I don't count or have any problems to keep streaks)

>>40658917
PMO, smoking, dopamine addiction etc is just a cope for you to avoid facing your issues. It's escapism. Part of the growing pains of quitting an addiction is what you are feeling right now. This is the path. I'm on the same road as you are but I am trying to face the hard truths of my messed up life. Don't smoke. Change who you are. Become what you know you can be

so you haven't quit it you fucking ape

istg you people have 2 braincells fighting for 3rd place

I braked the everyday habit of chain smoking sigs for years and hit a vape 3 time a week then I see someone not really relapse for me, idk. I didn't say I quit nicotine.

Anyone else get tension headaches during SR? I’ve been getting them regularly. Could be unrelated to SR but tension headaches are usually caused by stress and cooming usually relieved my stress. These headaches makes me highly irritable. Should I do breathing exercises?

>>40658917
>I'm depressed and my skin is in really bad shape.

A lot of skin issues are actually gut issues. I would clean up your diet. An easy start would be to cut out all processed foods and focus on whole foods (cuts of meat, eggs, dairy, rice, vegetables, fruit, honey, herbs & spices). Look for nutrient dense foods instead of sugars & starches that are empty calories. That is just a rough guide to begin. I only eat organic as it has little to no pesticides (glyphosate) which I found wrecked my gut many years ago.

Dietary changes will help your sleep too. Too many stimulants will mess up your sleep in addition as well as not getting enough sun light. You want your circadian rhythm balanced. Try to get some sunlight in the morning. A little goes a long way.

Quitting smoking would be good but imo fixing your diet before anything is key. Talk to God or Jesus Christ. No one is alone we all have the miraculous ability to communicate with the Source of all creation on a personal level. I would try and pray brother.

It might not be what you want to hear now but with time a peace that surpasses all understanding may literally wash upon you. I was mind blown the first time I experienced it. Simply put it was awesome.

>>40658995

Breathing exercises are good. I like nasal box breathing. I would also consider stretching. Headaches can be referred pain often from tension in neck, shoulders, upper back. If you sit at a computer for long hours stretching is practically mandatory.

Also check out Trauma Release Exercises (TRE). It looks and sounds goofy but once you do it correctly and begin to shake involuntarily its kind of shocking.

>>40658917
The Solution is to clean your house. The skin issues and sleep issues are yhe repercussions of letting the house get so filthy. Everyone here has compulsive habits and addictions so you are in good company.

First things first what are you doing to fill the time now that you aren't fapping or smoking? A hobby, Meditation, prayer?

Second why do you think returning to a previously unhealthy habit cure your issues?

Finally you need to get your life in order because it sounds like it is out of order.

>>40655434
you held the gate but the enemy overwhelmed your defense after they gathered reinforcements, the reinforcements you have given to them unknowingly all these years. These chains are of iron but you can melt them.

>>40659047
Very possibly that. A combination of weight-lifting and sitting for long periods of time at work with bad posture might be messing me up. I’ll do some deep stretches and work on my posture.

>>40659024
>Quitting smoking would be good but imo fixing your diet before anything is key.
I mean my skin gone bad after I quit smoking
>diet
I'm on good diet and for me liver is what fixing my skin, just didn't have time to buy and cook it now.
>not getting enough sun light
where haven't been sun were I live for 2 weeks straight, I'm supplementing D3+K2
>>40659049
>Second why do you think returning to a previously unhealthy habit cure your issues?
I don't know, when I was on my highs I was smoking.

>>40659064
>I’ll do some deep stretches and work on my posture.

Based. I like to stack things so I'll do a 30 to 60 minute full body stretch routine, with red light on me while I listen to a podcast. Don't fade the red light its a great addition.

>>40659049
>A hobby
yeah I'm into weightlifting and that's why good sleep is huge for me and I haven't experience it in weeks now, I sleep 6-7 hours max after I quit.

I've decided something simple, no masturbation, no porn, no orgasm or ejaculation or release of semen until I'm a millionaire. Maxxing out overtime, grinding and researching as hard as possible, utilizing improved luck from SR. It's time to rise up.

Nofap + noporn + nocum + nosex = sucess in personal life.

>>40659200
That show is really hard to win. Are you sure you can do this?

>>40655807
>I’m glad I met her and that she taught me about the deeper nature of women and the games they play.
you didn't say this

I'm just gonna keep working my body to exhaustion on a daily basis because it seems to be a viable way to abstain.
I want to engage in some devotional activities, but I feel like my thought atmosphere has become so perverted that I feel like its just not okay

Was doing energy orgasims and my energy center got fucked up bro. Semen retention is easy now been like 4 days since I coomed. I think I broke the shit.

>>40659823
what is an energy orgasm

>>40659871
Basically I shove a dildo up my butt and meditate while slightly spiraling the dildo through my anal cavity until I orgasm. Important part is the put a clip on the penis to prevent ejaculation. More yogic techniques to this but I won’t bother going into them.

If you have the urge to jackoff and break your streak just imagine Robert Pattison's Batman looking at you with disgust

If there was anything to give an example for this was it. Wtf would this be? Like prayer and reading my Bible? Or repurposing the sexual energy into something productive?

Lads day two and I watched porn and was literally so horny that i came in my pants without touching myself. How do you actually pass the first couple days? The cum literally just pulled itself out of me i was so horny. This has never happened to me. I literally cannot pass this challenge

>>40660543
>How do you actually pass the first couple days?
don't watch porn for a start

>>40660543
>I watched porn
Don't do that for a start.

>>40660543
>I watched porn
for a start, have you tried not doing that?

>>40659591
I did.

>>40660543
if this actually happened and you're not exaggerating then you're actually an extreme addict, even more so than me.
if you absolutely must fail then at least try doing it to your imagination. just keep trying and eventually you'll be able to last longer.
also pro tip: if you make it past day 5 wear a latex glove on your dick when you sleep to avoid staining your bed sheets due to wet dreams

>>40660557

>>40660543
>I watched porn
do not, for a start, watch porn

A faggot, for a start, be you should not.

>>40660627
it's obvious for a reason
it's literally as easy as this:
Nigga Just Walk Away From The Screen Like Nigga Close Your Eyes HaHa

>>40660647
Sir we are coomers

Looks boys I'm asking for serious advice here.

I didn't have a phone for about two years and I barely watched porn. Now that I have one I cant fucking stop

Nobody really calls me and the only place I have to go to is the gym and my therapist.

I don't want to just like throw the phone out though because I've done that before and sometimes you do actually need a phone for life things, I tried those dollar store pre paid and its just too much of a hassle for small day to daya shit. But this phone is fucking killing me and I don't need it for anything really, so what do I do?

>>40660631
I have blocks on everything but on my phone all I have to do is turn off wifi and its instant porn. I don't know what to do

>>40660717
conveniently forget to charge your phone and keep it away from your bed so you can't reach it right away in the morning

>>40660754
I've tried turning it off and putting it in the trunk of my car but life inevitably happens, I have to make a call at some point and literally the minute I turn it on I start peeking every time

>>40660195
>only 4 days
>asking about Magic
Bro you haven't even gone through the purge.

>>40660768
>but life inevitably happens
have you tried ending your life?

I don't understand why porn is legal and prostitution isn't when porn comes with all this psychic trauma that it inflicts not just on the participants but the viewer, its arguably way worse

>>40660627
he may or may not be an extreme addict but some of the benefits claimed by those who practice SR are increased penile sensitivity and ease of arousal (which is not surprising in the early stages) so I don't know why you conclude he's an extreme addict simply because he could cum hands-free from watching porn. wearing comfortable underwear and throbbing against it can feel similar to masturbating under the right conditions.

>>40660768
I dunno, turn off or unsubscribe from mobile data internet? Contact your carrier and explain you want family services applied to your mobile internet so that "your kids" can't find porn? Insist that "your kids" know how to change the settings on your phone and you need porn blocked at the source?

>>40660819
Wait thats actually a really good idea, can the phone provider put a block on there end? Oh my god that would be amazing

>>40655506
I mean I dont know what hes grifting, I have watched a lot of his videos, like maybe 20, and in one he mentioned a book he wrote and I looked up his book and hes selling it in .pdf file for $20. Watched 20 of his videos and hes mentioned his book only once. So I wouldn’t call him a grifter per se. What I do find odd is how he says he lives in thailand and I haven’t seen one video where he appears to be in thailand. Hes always filming himself in a nondescript forest. If he is doing SR in thailand thats fucking hardcore. Thats like being a nudist in yemen.

>>40660770
分りました、but when?

>>40660835
I can't confirm as I am just throwing ideas out there. I would give it a shot and not give up. Just keep complaining to them if they try to blow you off.

>>40660859
There’s no magic powers, there’s only becoming a better version of yourself. In my experience, the positive benefits I have noticed, looks from ladies, increased energy, better mood, more stable attitude, less procrastination — they begin to become noticeable at two weeks but thats also when the goon demons start waging war against you, but everyone is different.

>>40660884
I really have all of that without SR. But I was really hoping for magic powers.

>>40660891
there are magic powers, you just need to see them in action but only when they are truly needed.

>>40660863
It didn't work, the card is my mom's and you need it to verify and I don't have it

I installed this Google family link thing but its not enough and its complicated and breaking my phone

I really feel like I'm being attacked by a porn demon. Please pray for me boys. I'm really struggling

i VILL make you coom, goyim.

You are not the first I've seen that feels that way, myself included a few years ago.
I've found that as long as your heart is in the right place you can engage in devotional activities and even ask for guidance and help in your pursuit.

>>40660470
>fag
The more you engage in the sizable about of trolls looking to derail the thread, the more of them will appear, it's simple logic.

>>40660543
>>40660557
>>40660627
>do the obvious
You watch porn because your sexual energy is depleted and you need to find outside stimuli in pursuit of that next dopamine discharge. Eventually *you start needing* outside stimuli to feel the dopamine, that loop is what fucks people up badly when it comes to porn and masturbation and it is just not that obvious for folks merely starting.

>>40661300
it is commonsensically obvious that you shouldn't watch porn when doing nofap.. whether you are able to resist watching it or not is different

>>40661306
>commonsensically
again, for a person that does not know how the loop works, no, it is not obvious.

>>40661194
Airdick porgy.

Where's the nacho's?

>>40661289
>about
*amount....ugh...

>>40661325
you dont have to know how the loop works to know that you should avoid porn if you already decided to do nofap

>>40661344
Again, *no*, a person that does not know how something works can't properly know the why, so *no*, it doesn't work like that and never will, and it's unfair to deny someone the proper advise after witnessing first hand the amount of porn propaganda bombardment they have to endure, I mean, it's just a matter of following this very thread.
How do you expect someone to make a conscious choice without having all the elements?
Since you are more interested in imposing your narrow view of the matter, I'm stopping this convo now.

>>40661373
what the fuck are you talking about? i'm not saying that people new to this know exactly how each chemical travels through your brain when you see a boob, i'm saying that if you start nofap it should be obvious to avoid porn because the reason you watch porn is to fap, since you don't want to fap anymore it should be intuitive that you shouldn't watch porn as well because that'll get you horny and make nofap harder.

>>40660543
Obviously like other anons said, watching porn is the problem here. But I do think that could've still happened to you anyway. Even the stray lewd image online can cause such a thing over time if you allow it to stay in your thoughts.

>>40660724
These threads are one of the greatest examples of that pic, the shills go absolutely psycho when this topic is posted lol...

>>40660795
Porn doesn't give you STDs for one. But I agree, both should be banned, they each have their own problems and are both a form of lust either way.

>>40661194
>Taking a 3 day just to make other men jack off
So gay you've gone desperate.... How sad

>>40660543
You get past the first few days by not watching porn you dummy

>>40660631
never watch porn. it's literally the siren myth in modern times. hot women convince you "there's no harm, plus don't i look so good and sound so good?" and then your life is ruined

Been cooking today. Remember failing although bad doesn't drop you to a solid 0. Though every time you fap it drops you pretty severely. This streak has only been a few days but it feels more like Day 20-30 then day 1 of my Big Streak.

I'm looking for a rational basis to implement semen retention. So far I got:

Sex is meant for reproduction
The ideal wife is a friend, not a fornicator
Porn shifts perception so much one loses sight of the shore
Research on masturbation is taboo Within a secular society, only a few positive conclusions are allowed, negative conclusions are punished or dismissed
Trillions of dollars are probably moved by lust
Lack of belief in eternal life leads to frequent masturbation
Detachment => more creative power => more money and women
Attachment => less power => frustration => coom cope

What creates detachment: resting, chilling, yoga nidra, relaxmaxxing, moderate alcohol, wu wei(no forcing), being ready to die

>>40663115
>What creates detachment: resting
stfu dumb wagie niggercattle

is there a fool proof way to block porn that can't be easily thwarted by turning a browser extension off
or is it all just willpower
