    Semen retention in long term is dangerous, let me tell you what happened to me in long term, i was never on a streak long like this, plus 2 years before i was fapping very rarely ( only 1 or 2 days in 20+, 30+ and even 40+ days) this was all happening to me in last days/weeks seen many people in this forum talking they experiencing shortness of breath, that was happening to me too. I had uncomfortable feeling in my lungs and sometimes it was becoming more and more intense and i had the feeling it`s end of my life and that i will die becouse of lack of breath. I gone to a doctor they checked my heart and they told me this is not dangerous for life and later i checked out on internet and found out it has to do with my stomach and that my stomach is sending something up in my throat and even lungs which makes breathing harder. Doctors told me to drink a lot of water, be psyhicaly active more and to reduce cigarettes ( honestly last months i was not that psyhicaly active) but i started changing that reducing cigarettes and i chilled out, when difficulity breathing appears i know it will pass and only anxiety would make things 10 times worse. I chilled out and thought problem is solved

    But a couple of days ago 5 other different things started happening to me and i felt very uncomfortable sensations / vibrations in legs and arms (especially in legs) i cannot describe fully in words how it feels, it is not pain, but it feels very uncomfortable. I am feeling like my body is heating, especially in back. Sometimes, i feel pain in different parts of body. First time this all happened to me i got dizziness and i felt like i will lose concious. I checked on internet what is it and it is all connected, with my stomach something is definitely not right and i found somewhere it writes something like `it sends fluid up through body` and that area of stomach is very close to area of pelvis and semen

    Yes i admit i am smoking cigarettes from teen age, but come on there are so many smokers, some people are smoking 3 times more than me, 3 times longer than me and nothing is happening to them and they are completely peaceful. While i am feeling like it`s last days of my life literally. Even if i blame cigarettes, it must be in combination of semen retention. After days of this happening it seems like it becoming worse and worse and feelings in legs are becoming more and more uncomfortable, fuck semen retention `superpowers` and so called `semen retention benefits` it was nice journey it got me a very cute girl, it was fun on journey but now goodbye. I fapped yesterday and feelings in my legs are much easyer now. So yes, it was probabbly all about semen retention. Many porn addicts told me `go and do semen retention, you will die with your benefits` guess they was right and they are not even aware of it

  2. Calm down buddy , Yesterday I noticed that I was shortness of breath too. But I realized that it was about being stressed out because of my exams, and when I relaxed a little bit, it went away. I have no problem with that. I had +200 days retention streak , despite this I didn't experience any shortness of breath. But I can say I had some problems with SR.

    You can't blame nofap for such a thing. If you all the time fantasize about something, you will get really tight down there, if you don't release it. But if you live without fantasizing about girls, you won't have any problems down there. Maybe you're just searching for excuse to stop nofap

    Perhaps my body doesn`t tolerate those practices as most other people


    Honestly, i was 1 of most `extreme` guys about this if you check all posts on my profille. I am far away from guy which would find excuses to quit nofap. I never wanted to go back. Girls are very nice to me and enjoying my presence and it`s very easy for me to create connections with them. Why should i change that with women on screen? Or locking in 4 walls and fapping? It simply makes no sence

    I checked about issue it`s called RLS (restless legs syndrome) and it can happen becouse of lack of iron (my iron on blood test is up on scale almost above it should be) 2. imbalance of dopamine in brain, which really too makes no sence becouse i was really enjoying life. So what else could be cause? So yea i was doing something other people not doing (semen retention) and that is the cause. Medicine has 0 science what can happen to 1 practicing semen retention (good or bad) so we are really doing something what is dangerous, becouse there is no research what happens in long term. Yes everybody can say positive effects in short term, but long term? Really not. And what is even more worrying that is not only thing which is happening, 5 other things happening to my body

    I don't know, I'm 3 years not Ming and I don't have anything like that. Perhaps different bodies work differently. I have nocturnal emissions 1 - 3 times a month, and I don't have a wife. And my libido is very high, not like i'm dead :D

    I don't think anyone remains voluntarily celibate for long periods of time because of the current science of it....It's something you feel, live and experience and approve for yourself. So I do not think the argument of there being no long term studies of this being valid.

    Corona probably damaged a small part of your lungs.

    Anyway, if you have other problems I do not think celibacy will retard it. Rather a good healthy immune system and reduced inflammation will help you to stay sane. But each to their own...you know?...

    For me having sex is completely ok but without O, even Ming is 100 times better than O. I don`t think this `fapping` affected me becouse i did it fast and i lost semen only what is on top, old semen. I feel different than other times back then when i was relapsing becouse i was relapsing for half hour which made all semen gone out, but when you do it very fast most semen stays and only top goes out. I feel different than other relapses and i don`t think i lost any benefits, i feel all the same as before. It is still very easy for me to hold eye contact with people and my voice is still deep, girls are still acting like vampires around me

    I must find out what is happening to me and solve it becouse what is happening to me is sometimes very creepy. Let`s just hope it`s not semen retention. I didn`t got sick in last 3-4 years and it is not normal to be 100% healthy in 100% lifetime so perhaps i just got sick. Or perhaps it is some virus in gut. I only must find out what is happening

    You can't choose grey areas... you either go for full SR and lose interest for girls or create a pollution in your body from sexual agitation.

    Semen retention is dangerous if not done properly, it will create smut in your semen, this is why your body is reacting like this, semen separates from blood when you think anything sexual

    It is still healthy to reduce the frequency of discharges, but all people here thinking of doing SR and still chasing after sexual pleasure/romantic relationship are being deluded, the highest purpose of SR is to reach God and requires vairagya which is to not have desire for women.

    So you got Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease , a common pathology and you connected it with Semen Retention. Thanks to internet

    Wow , what a mind
     
  11. No, you don't. Your doctor does.

    In the meantime, stop wondering, stop googling symptoms and jumping to conclusions, and most importantly, stop immediately infecting this entire community with worry and outrageous generalizations and claims that are fuelled solely by your own subjective experience.

    Every single thread you post causes a massive commotion because of its disruptive energy. I've even seen whole threads of yours being deleted. This time around, literally no one else is experiencing the same thing you're going through, yet you somehow feel justified to proclaim that "SEMEN RETENTION IS DANGEROUS" as if it's absolute fact, thereby planting confusion and doubt in vulnerable recovering porn addicts. Does it even occur to you that probably dozens of people will now relapse just because of this thread you posted?
    You should really go work for a tabloid magazine, they are desperate for sensationalists like you.

    First of all, smoking is definitely a problem no matter how much more other people are smoking and regardless of whether or not it has anything to do with your symptoms right now. You're just self-soothing and deluding yourself if you think that you couldn't ever get sick from smoking by virtue of the fact that other people smoke more. There are people who get lung cancer and don't smoke at all, for instance. Furthermore, I find it hilarious that you can easily close your eyes to the fact that smoking is one of the most harmful thing you could do to your body (7000+ chemicals in a single cigarette, at least 70 of them proven to be cancerous, and many of them toxic) yet you actively spread unfounded claims and misinformation, such as "semen retention is dangerous", simply because you experience problems right now that haven't even 100% been linked to semen retention. The fact is, right now, semen retention is just the scapegoat for your undiagnosed symptoms.

    Second of all, semen retention is not just the practice of not ejaculating, but must incorporate breath-work, yoga, meditation, and other important techniques to actually work with, channel and transmute the stored energies. What you're experiencing might be kundalini energy, which can get very uncomfortable if messed with by the inexperienced practitioner and cause all kinds of sensations throughout the body, not too dissimilar from what you're describing here.

    The audacity of you to single-handedly bash a sacred spiritual practice that's probably as old as mankind is incomprehensible to me.

    Please go see a doctor, get it all checked out and then come clean here and tell us what it really was!
    Do not blame semen retention and do not make others shy away from it just because it hasn't worked for you / you don't understand it!

    Wishing you good health and sending you lots of metta.

    Has it ever occurred to you that what you experienced could be withdrawal symptoms? Quitting PMO can have physical withdrawal symptoms for some people, including myself.

    Yes, I physically didn't orgasm for several years, but still edged and chased attention from girls and fantasied, etc. While I can say it is a bit better than physically losing the semen, I wasn't at all reaping the total benefits. And after several years the anxiety and dopamine imbalance made me hit bottom and I had to surrender completely. It wasn't until I became became pure and lust free on a mental level that the real magic happened. But that took some time. That's why when I work with people, I have understanding of that stage, because one cant buck the natural evolutionary process entirely. I couldnt... Even though I intellectually knew what was best, the needed power wasn't there to apply what I knew. Life is an evolutionary game designed for the human self, all the while our real Self hasnt evolved at all as it is formless. But the tendency to believe in this human construct is so strong that we cant help but play the human game for awhile (or long while)....

    I can`t i can`t i can`t forget about girls how is that even possible ^^ i was really enjoying all the attention i`m getting from girls and them being vampires they even made my journey so much more fun, i don`t want to live life like `MGTOW` and completely forget about girls semen retention is not for me then, perhaps i should just O and enjoy life. Last like 10 days before fapping i was often very close to O, by listening to sounds of eating ear, kissing ear and moaning (not too loud but she sounds like she had sex) and i experienced almost 10 times nocturnal emissions but as awake (wet dreams but as awake) and i had to so much use my PC muscle to prevent O and so many times i was very close to O, even 5-10 minutes later i was very close to O and only 1 sexual thought was enough that i had to use again PC muscle to prevent O, sometimes even without sexual thoughts O was going and i had to use PC muscle. I couldn`t believe i am that much full of energy. Perhaps i messed something up. When i was with my girl i couldn`t help but to experience nocturnal emissions. I was so full of energy and my assumptions are when i fapped semen was looking different then usual, it was not crystal and it had a little bit of other colors in it. I thought that was all semen from top (old semen) but that was smuted semen?

    They are not deleted becouse of threads itself but becouse some people made drama lol

    How do you know? This site is the only place where i am seeing people talking having difficulity breathing and even pain in some parts of body (just like me) these other uncomfortable feelings in body i don`t know am i the only 1 experiencing, but those other issues definitely yes

    They would relapse anyway. This thread has no responsibility for anyone`s relapse. Actually if you look across the forums, everywhere you will see people saying `relapse` especially in comment section, and they always blaming something else for their relapses but not themselves, which in this case would be blaming this thread, without this thread they would blame something or someone else

    Becouse i rather believe in science then in ideas, rationalisations and thoughts like others?

    Person who is not smoking may have worse health issues than a person who is smoking a lot

    So? If cigarettes are that bad, it would kill all smokers and non-smokers would be perfectly healhy, which is as you alone mentioned, not the case

    And after whole post of disagreeing that semen retention would be the cause, now you admit it could be the cause

    Sending you lots of love ^^
