    Thoughts and Concerns on PMO "hard mode"

    Hi Folks, is it healthy to have no ejaculations for a prolonged period of time? If I allow myself orgasms but no masturbations, do I make it mentally harder or easier? Since I am not in a relationshop, orgasms but no masturbation also implies I "would need to get out there and try to get...

    Porn is not the menace, what moves me is the desire. Now that desire has come, but so it must go. It's been many years, but now its time to let it go, far far away into the space.
