  1. Day 4 complete!

    Today was not an exercise day for me, so I didn't hit that goal, but my brother and I went to get our second doses of the covid vaccine. We'll see if I have any side effects and what they're like @_@ Tomorrow is my first shift back to work as a lifeguard for the summer season. There's always a strong undercurrent of tension with that job, but I'm looking forward to simply being able to work again.

    @Gandalf the White Sorry to hear about your reset, but the accountability is appreciated and admirable! Praying you'll have even more success in the future.

    An easy trick to never ejaculate, masturbate or be fooled by any girl
    One of the easiest ways to never masturbate and to do as you please in terms of being under control of your sexuality is saying no to a very beautiful girl. These two scenarios happened to me on sunday and yesterday respectively

    This sunday
    I said no to a very beautiful blond to have an exclusive sexual relationship with her, she was the one that proposed this to me. Why I said no? Because that is not how sex works, sex involves feelings and especially on the girls side. If a girls does not develop feelings towards you after having sex or see sex as something casual there is something wrong with her. This type of sex will drain your energy away and you will be used as a sexual object.

    I had sex with her once she was very passive and in a way tricked me to have sex with her, telling me how bad her past lover was and that she never had an orgasm in her life this is true but she did not tell the all story. After I confronted her she told me she made a mistake by telling that we should just have a sexual relationship, also she confessed that she always viewed relationships as merely sexual and thought I was just like any other dude, then she implied she was willing to know me besides the sex. But do not make this mistake a girl will not change for you a girl is what she is. I was very attracted to her but I say not to her, it was a difficult decision. That girl has no feelings, she is a sexual predator.

    Yesterday
    A beautiful redhead wrote me saying how beautiful, charming and special I am, we have not met but we have talked through messages. Then she told me she wanted to have sex but wanted me to ejaculate inside her vagina. As you guys know I do semen retention I would not break my streak not even for the most beautiful girl in the world or for a million dollars.

    Also this readhead is domineering; she likes to have control of her man, I know this for the way she acts with me, you can tell when a girl plays games if you have experience. A girl that is domineering in the relationship will also be in the bed and that is just a horrible experience, also how persistent she was over and over again about me ejaculating inside of her, it shows lack of sympathy for your partner in bed and domination traits. Also girls do not even feel when you come inside of them.

    I have told no too many beautiful girls to have sex, because who they are as a person and I felt this has been the most difficult thing of my life, my father who is an expert on girls has also helped me to make these choices and I’m extremely blessed to have him.

    Conclusions
    -If you say no to a beautiful girl, you can do anything.
    -Learn to analyse women otherwise they will eat you up. Women are the real sexual and relationship predators not men.
    -There is always a better girl do not be afraid to leave anybody I just found 20 more girls to date and 3 girls better than these two in less than two days but still I’m going to wait for someone better.

    *no hate towards girls by the way, there are some good ones out there

    8 days. Running + push-ups + sit-ups. Also started to work a little bit on a breathing exercise that I would like to do everyday, I hope I'll have the discipline to continue with that. Perhaps a slight chaser effect from last nights orgasm-like experience in the sleep but physical exercise did the trick this time.

    So Its Day 13 here and am quite positive,... I got a little down yesterday and got of my bed and step out. I took a breather in the out doors, and slowly and peacefully the short depression that would have been a relapse melted like butter on hot day.. Its the 13th for me and am happy to be postive and alive to breathe the free air given to me by God... Have a lovely day ciao

    Day 107 no PMO. Last night my kids were both away for the night and I wanted to try to have sex with my wife but didn’t for fear I might not be able to perform. Woke up around 2am having had a near wet dream. Probably should have given it a go with my wife. I was happy to not ejaculate from the dream mainly because so much talk on this thread about semen retention. Where can I read about the benefits of semen retention so I cam understand it better?

    Checking in fellowship,

    MO free 139 days, porn free 211 days.

    Waking up around 1 am twice now this week, feeling extremely hot and my stomach going wild. (nausea stomach pain and bloated) ..The first time that heat lead me to some anxiety because PAWS emotions are on steroids but this time I stayed calm with the discomfort and meditated a bit. Interesting enough, I had some urges show up because of it, although I didn't pay any attention to it.(The urge was not for porn, mostly for MO or edging)

    I'm starting to suspect the fish oil I've been taking. I'm going to lay off it for a while. This has happened in the past and when I stopped taking it, I felt better after a few days.

    I had started taking it because I read a study with people who went through alcohol withdrawal, specifically those who took omega 3 fish oil had reduced stress/anxiety symptoms in comparison to those who were taking a placebo. It did work in terms of stress/anxiety at first, but once your gut gets irritated by it..well I think it screws with the serotonin production and your anxiety and stress bounce back a bit. If any of you decide to go that road, be cautious.

    Day 2
    I am starting to feel a lot better. Yesterday was a good day filled with good things. @modern milarepa I think the post about relaxing was a great post with great information. So many times I let p get wrapped up in my head and I think about all the negative effects it has on me. In turn it stresses me out and honestly pushes me more towards it. Just relax and move forward. Sexual urges are a natural and good thing.

    Hey guys. I failed last night, as sleep dissolved and temptation set in. Pretty bad relapse, I am ashamed but really more just sad. I'd been warding off temptations yesterday and the day before, but then just collapsed.

    A couple things I've (re)learned: Days 14-30 have become a real danger zone for cravings; being around people and being social really helps my general attitude and outlook.

    So, the orcs nabbed me outside Hobbiton, and re-orced me. But I'm on the trail again.
     
  18. To my knowledge there is very little science to read up on. You'll find plenty of blogs and vlogs and discussion threads if you google but it's almost entirely anecdotal. At least that's my experience.
    Having said that, the sheer number of people on these forums, including myself, that have sovled problems in the bedroom through abstinence is a good source.
    Maybe read through success stories on the forums, or have you already done that?
    Again, they are anecdotal though.
    If you find anything scientific i am interested too.

    Checking in. Made it through the tough, sleep deprived day yesterday, got a solid 8 hours last night and hit the ground running on wake-up. Studied Chinese, worked out, did my breathwork and meditation. Heading out for a quick bike ride now before work. Be well everyone!
