    So I just relapsed after my first streak of 66 days. It was very disappointing, but I learned something from the experience that I wouldn't have if I didn't relapse—there's always a positive perspective. But what I'm wondering is if you have ever experienced this: the first time I ejaculated in over two months I had this horrible pain in my urethra that lasted about 20 seconds. It was a sharp throbbing pain. And it was only when I ejaculated, not whatsoever in the lead up. Is this anything unusual? I know I should expect the first time after a period of abstinence to be different, but I didn't expect terrible pain. Any ideas?
     
  2. I've had this before, but it was years ago. It's nothing to worry about. It just means that you strained a vain down there or something. It happens.

    It sometimes happens when you don't let yourself ejaculate straight away, but you hold back, keep stroking, don't ejaculate (sorry to be graphic)... It confuses your penis. I went to a doctor about it years ago, but they didn't say anything. I'm guessing it's nothing serious. I've never had that problem since.

    Also, it may have just been because you hadn't used your penis in that way for 66 days, so there was a bit of tension there.

    Anyway, all the best with your new streak. Keep going and don't give up this time. You know you can do it, because you've done it before, but this time, be more wise and more vigilant.

    In 2009 I abstained from PMO for about 6 months. We can all do this if we really want to. It's just about choices and how we manage the urges each day. Just say no. We are in control of our own bodies.

    Thanks for the motivation man. How did you go for 6 months? Was there anything that helped you go that long?
     
  4. No problem. I'm here to help as much as possible.

    What I really think helped me go that long was the fact that I was in college back then studying really hard. College was a period in my life where I was always active and never had time to be idle. Had to be up early, and then was at college for the rest of the day and when I got home I would be too tired to do anything else, so the days were very short and went quickly. It was pretty much a breeze doing 6 months back then. But I know now that I have even more will power to surpass that time and double, because since then I have learned everything that I need to learn to be able to keep myself under control.

    You can do it buddy. If you have any more questions, just fire away.

    Yeah I've definitely found that when I'm busy it's way easier to have my priorities straight and not even think about porn. Thanks for the advice bro.
