Semen retention

Here's my opinion on SR.

When having a wet dream you're having excess sperm because you didn't fap for a while. So if you fap now and then there is no problem. Don't feel bad about it.
The problem that I see, is that many people might overdo fapping. Fapping 3 or more times a day would cause your body to have to produce more sperm and thus use up more nutrients.
The main problem with PMO is hormonal and not that people lose sperm too much. Fap now and then if you want, just make sure it doesn't lead you back to pmo.

 

The first 3 weeks of my reboot i didnt fantisize AT ALL. Still wet dream.

 

I need a shirt. With SR on it.

 

It's all a mind thing.

 

Can you link to your stuff bro? It sounds interesting, I wanna check it out.

 

This is an interesting point because I lost my hair about 7 or 8 years ago (when I was literally losing days at a time to fapping) yet it never fell out at all. It just got thinner and no one in my family from either side has suffered hair loss. I think about all my lovely thick hair and the fact that I may have contributed to this shocks me to be honest. When I was literally edging for hours I would get tingles on my scalp and then in a few days I would see hair loss in those areas. If my hair doesn't come back that's fine but to think I contributed to it is distressing.

 

I guess I needed to clarify, yes it will thin your hair because of all the ejaculating. Some of the videos and articles I have read attributed it to crucial nutrients lost like zinc. I know there was a guy who made a thread on here and took before and after pictures, one where he had lots of thinning hair, and then another picture after he maintained a lengthy nofap streak and a lot of the hair grew back. When you're younger and you're just beginning beating off it's a lot less noticeable, but after years and years of doing this and beating off once, twice, three times or more every day, and it will take its toll on your hair.

 

Hi @Runtilmylegsdropoff. I have actually had dreams during the times when I have gone a few days, a week without fapping and in the dreams I am looking at my healthy locks again. I think I am a bald guy now however I did go well over a month without fapping a couple of years ago and the very large bald spot on my head began to be populated with hairs and it became smaller, noticeably so and the other hair around it became silkier to the touch.

 

This made me laugh more than it should have. Reproduce through mitosis or something.

 

The only place I've heard of "semen retention" was form a history class. Apparently like dark ages scientists thought that spinal fluid and semen was the same thing, and thought that was why too much sex would make you stupid. It also contributed to a lot of misogynistic thought, that that was one of the reasons women wanted sex as well to make them smarter. I don't have any sources for this, just remember it from a history course. Some of it was in a book called the Hammer of Witches? Wet Dreams don't bother me, you don't control them.

 

From my personal experience Semen retention does have it's benefits, however it is very difficult and can actually encourage giving in to porn and masturbation due to the high build up and no release. If anyone wants to know any of my personal experiences after three weeks of semen retention send me a message, I'll be more than happy to help anyone out who's on the same path.

 

i havent have a wet dream in a week

 

?? what?
You already stated that you dont get wet dreams.

 

Been 60+ days, I still get wet dreams

 

I guess it does take longer intervals. My "wet dreams" have seemed to "evolved" into sex dreams (no ejaculation). My conscious seemed to have infiltrated my dreams. They are very vivid like now, irl. There's one sex dream I recall around two weeks ago when this pretty albino tried to sex me in the back seat, in the middle of sex, I said, "alright, i'm done."; and the...girl(what I assumed to be a succubus) got really belligerent and chased me around the city. The point was, I knew(my subconscious) that in my dream, I was still on Nofap/Semen Retention. Around day 60 for me, I got this severe "depression attack" that transcended the realm of withdrawal symptoms. It's as though my conscious was being possessed by someone. I missed work for five days(the longest i've ever been out; even considering vacations). I also took many succubus attacks around day 60. You must have been praying.

Well, keep it up. You're a true warrior, indeed.

 

Honestly, it's not so bad. I used to be afraid of them, but now, I have real, p.o.v, sex dreams. Those are probably succubusses I be tearing off into. It must be good to 'em. They keep coming back. I pray to keep them away, now though.
