    For me, a lot of MO can make me blurry. You lose a lot of vital nutrients when you release semens. Look up what a teaspoon of it contains. You lose ZINC for example.

    Damn, I didnt know it, which means my sugar cravings could´ve fucked me up really good if I had kept at fapping.

    I cant even imagine what regular peak Fappers, suffer, if it´s twice per day, I´d imagine it may cause more than what we currently know.


    OMG look at the list: "semen does contain actual nutrients including vitamin C, B12, ascorbic acid, calcium, citric acid, fructose, lactic acid, magnesium, zinc, potassium, sodium, fat and protein"

    This is no joke, fappers can get a shit health from losing some of this nutrients

    yup! Wish I knew this back in high school. That’s why some people age horribly bad. Poor skin health, joint etc... it’s crazy. That’s why the Chinese believe that a man semen is his life force and if he can preserve it, he will be in good health. He shouldn’t go around and waste it with one night stand or PMO.

    take B12 for example. As you age, ur body will have a harder time to absorb this nutrient from food. Now imagine u MO a lot, ur depleting ur B12 supply! Now look up what B12 deficiency causes.

    This would explain why I have some my joint problems.

    So No fapping basically allows to stockpile this nutrients and ends up with less taxing on one´s digestive, nervous, and muscle systems I´d guess (and bones + eyes ofc).

    OMG I think I may have a lil bit of symptons from B12 deficiency in my nofap withdrawal symptons what is going on?!

    Look at this when you lack B12:
    • Feel weak, tired, and light-headed (withdrawal symptons from no fapping).
    • Have pale skin.
    • Have a sore, red tongue or bleeding gums.
    • Feel sick to your stomach and lose weight.
    • Have diarrhea or constipation (had both yesterday).
    If the level of vitamin B12 stays low for a long time, it can damage your nerve cells. If this happens, you may have:

    • Numbness or tingling in your fingers and toes (have this, thought it was a early light diabetes).
    • A poor sense of balance.
    • Depression.
    • A decrease in mental abilities.

    So Im guessing the constant daily fapping, is making us lose B12 vitamin and when we go into withdrawal, we taste what lacking B12 is huh.

    Fortunately fish and eggs can provide us with B12.

    I’m not a doctor so I can’t say much more. But I hv studied a bit of TCM (tradition Chinese medicine). A TCM practitioner can tell if you hv just MO recently or not by checking the pulse on your hand. The effect of MO is all over the body if you know what to look for. Even the lining of ur shoulder is uneven (one arm might be lower than the other)

    Once you enter ur 30s, it’s extremely difficult to reverse the damage. So if ur under 25, take good care of ur body. I met a TCM practitioner in real life and got curious about TCM, looked into it and my eyes were opened to the importance of semen.

    Lucky me, I´m 24,5 I knew when I started this that if I didnt do it now I was going to pay a price, now I know it, thanks.

    The fucked up part is that now I wonder if I wouldnt have needed so many updates on my glasses if I hadnt fapped so much in the last 10 years, or if my hair wouldnt have whitened as much (it wasnt a big deal, but at your early twenties having one or two white hairs creeping out is unatural).

    I became shortsighted at age 12. Until the age of 15 I was up to 3.25 diopters. Then I just didn't go to the optometrist anymore, because I had the feeling that he always gave me a stronger prescription, although for my taste my eysight wasn't getting that much worse.
    When I got to the army, I had to do a test again and suddenly I only had 2.75.
    So I started researching the topic on eyesight improvement heavily, especially about a doctor in the late 19th century called William H. Bates and developed a methodology to get rid of my shortsightedness.
    Today I'm down at 0.75 and I'm convinced that stop fapping had an enourmously positive impact on improving my eyesight.

    Also if you do good eye exercises and dont fall for itchy eyes, you can definitely improve it easily, if you dont fap, you dont waste precious Zinc which helps it as well.

    Problem for most people is that they are lazy, they dont wanna do the work to be healthy.

  16. I think fapping can make you blind, but more of a spiritual blindness or a blindness to the outside world.

    I always thought it was a myth (MO causes blindness) - but it is an age-old myth that actually goes back centuries.

    For me, I have always been a little near-sighted since my twenties, and I had to get corrective lenses even if just for safe driving. Was my diminishment of sight from many teen years of MO, when the habit all started?

    Just recently, while in the middle of this final streak of mine - now at 45 days - I had a sudden overnight improvement of eyesight. My corrective lenses seemed blurry to me driving one day, and I see better now without glasses. My optometrist confirms that my eyesight has "significantly" changed, and for the better. I am now legally 20/20 in the year 2020 to drive. My records were electronically sent to the DMV for when I get my next license; the corrective lens restriction may be removed. It's like I got Lasik surgery, but naturally and without the surgery. Folks known to get this surgery often have a diminishment of reading clarity and suddenly need reading glasses, even if they no longer need distance glasses. This has also somewhat happened to me. My reading vision has slightly blurred, but not too bad. I purchased a cheap 1.5x over-the-counter generic reading lenses, and it's an improvement.

    So, has recovering from PMO this round given me the new power of better distance vision? Or, was it a prayer of mine for general overall healing and good health, which I made a while back? But, before I declare a miracle, I am also informed that the same can happen with age, as in one's 50s, like me - distance can improve, while reading may worsen. Also, fluctuating glucose levels in the blood can have vacillating effects on the eyes, too, even in the right direction.

    So, I will be getting retested in about 3 months. In the meantime, however, and especially during these COVID times when masks are required, I'm glad I don't need to wear my glasses any longer, for the time being anyway, and being rid of all the fogging effects on the lenses while wearing a mask.

    I'll enjoy this for however long it may last! I'm a kid again, but this time without the MO!

    Fapping? Not unless you stab your eyes in the “throes of self pleasure.”

    but staring at a screen for hours could make your vision blurry and cause eye strain.

    just another reason not to.

    Does that represent number of times in a week or in a day?
