    Like I said in the title. Am I the only one who needs less sleep?
    I wake up pretty early everyday and I am full off energy and can get out of bed easily. The only thing that keeps me in bed is the cold. I keep my bedroom quite cold.
    Today I woke up at 4:30 and wasn't tired at all. I started reading and got out of bed at 6 AM.
    Has NoFap affected your sleep in anyway?

    I think it depends on when you slept the previous night.

    This is a common benefit of retaining the semen, just because of the fact that you now contain more vital energy. This was one of the many reasons why men engaged semen retention back in the day.

    I mentioned on a post a while ago, that one benefit I noticed for myself was not needing much sleep. I can have 4 hours of sleep and literally feel like I've had 10.

    This morning I woke to only having had about 3 and a half hours of sleep and I feel great. You can actually enhance this particular benefit through meditation and things. When you learn to circulate your energy right, the benefits feel just a tad bit more awesome.

    I noticed it due to the holidays. I don't have a fixed time when I have to wake up but I wake up fairly early, like 6 to 7 AM. Last Night I had max 7 hours sleep. And it's not like I'm not doing anything. I'm going to the gym + doing small home workouts, walking the dog and doing work in the house. So I'm still physically active. On New Years Eve I slept 4 hours. In the morning I was a bit tired but still had enough energy to do things. After a few hours I felt like I had a full night of sleep again.

    Yes I agree, but still I don't think you can have 4 hours sleep days at a time. For one or two days that works but 4 is simply not enough. On average one should get about 8 hours of sleep a day. But sleepling like 10 hours+ is very rare for me today. There is a reason why men get tired after sex (if they have conventional sex where they ejaculate.).

    I've done it for days at a time and I'm fine :D

    I get busy and just start doing things. With less sleep I get more done, but that is the wonders of retaining the semen. You don't need as much sleep because of the added energy. The higher streaks I reach, the more the usual 8 hours of sleep feels just too much. I will wake up automatically anyway. My body will want to do stuff.

    This happening to me as well,I don't need as much sleep as I used to. Every time that I would not release between days 5 to whenever I would get a burst of energy.As someone said sperm is our life force as men.When we watch porn and masturbate,we are giving away our life force as men away.The longer that we keep our power meaning not release,the more we grow stronger and keep our essence as men.
