Hi Guys, first of all happy new year to everyone, I want to tell you my story and what I think of NOFAP and SEMEN RETENTION, I can tell you that I was celibate for 2 consecutive years with subsequent serious relapses, now this is what I have to say about it.
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Alessio, I am a 36 year old Italian boy, it all started 7 years ago, from a serious porn addiction, I couldn't have sexual intercourse with a woman, in my heart I knew that this was due to a deep addiction to porn and masturbation. I landed on this site and decided to try this practice, unlike what I read on the forums my determination allowed me to immediately make a 2-year "streak" without relapses, I want to tell you the positive and negative implications that this entailed, furthermore also explain to you why I relapsed so badly.
There are many benefits that this practice brings, they are listed on the forums, you simply need to type on Google and search for what benefits it entails, spoilers, THEY ARE TRUE, but for convenience I'll list some of them:
-mental clarity
-greater psychological strength to face difficulties
-sense of strength, power
-greater physical beauty (including beauty of the face and eyes)
-masculinity
-digestion of any food
-viruses and diseases have no effect on you
-looks of random people, both men and women
Etc...
Now I will also report to you negative psychological, social and physical effects that I have experienced on this two-year streak:
- sense of superiority towards others, arrogance, haughtiness, vanity etc...
-social isolation
-physical weakness
-migraine
-manipulation of other people, men and women
Now I'll tell you what made me relapse, I think that over a long period of time a person really has the opportunity to change their life, at the time I was doing a job that I hated, I had the courage to change jobs, furthermore I had love at first sight ” (I don't know if it's also said like this in English, I practically fell in love) with a girl who went to the gym where I trained.
My insecurity of the past period had implications for the conquest of this girl, in my heart I perceived her interest in me but my insecurity did not lead to the relationship I so desired with her.
Now I want to tell you that this girl physically speaking was a true angel (I think so even after 7 years) the disappointment and failure made me relapse, and this also happened due to what was written above as "negative psychological, social and physical effects"
Now after ups and downs, I'm back on the path to semen retention, I have a better job, greater discipline, but the road to personal improvement never ends.
Ultimately I can say that masturbating in excess is not good, every excess in life is bad, masturbating once a month I don't think it's bad, (only 12 times a year) it keeps you humble and you don't lose the advantages described above, also you don't risk binge eating due to sexual repression.
If you are in a serious situation (you masturbate one or more times a day with porn) I advise you to do a long streak to understand where you can get to, I won't tell you not to masturbate again in life, sexuality is beautiful and should not be repressed
Obviously I'm not a doctor, so take my advice but don't take it too seriously.
I wish you guys all the best, feel free to ask any questions
ciao
