I did this for 6 months 7 years ago when I was 19.. can say the first few weeks are hard but it gets much easier. The benefits are huge, you really will become a whole new person and girls will be more attracted to you because of the vibe you put off. This is how I met my girlfriend at the time who is now my wife, which is also the reason my 6 month streak came to an end

I am cuming (mispronouncing intened) from a severe porn addiction and I've been in semen retention for over 60 days now. Every time I get the urges, ending up in IG, clicking on links, starting some 'research' - you guys know what I mean - I will just go down to the ground and do some pushups. The deeper I got into it without noticing, the more I 'punish' myself with even more pushups. Alternatively I do some meditation, when I just feel like it or my muscles are sore. Sexual urge is one of the greatest energy a man has! Do not waste it by firing it away into nothing in a few minutes! In these 60 days, I got much more attention by girls, talked to a lot of more girls and felt overall more confident around people. The feeling to have myself under control in this manner spreads over to every other aspect of my life. It's worth the way brothers, stay strong!!!

after scrolling through all of the comments I was rather surprised to see how many men struggle to control their sexual urges. I practice semen retention regularly as well as cold showers and they have changed my life. this inspired me to share a comment to help anyone who may stumble across this. so when practicing semen retention, i want you to change your perspective on it. rule #1.) do not, i repeat DO NOT, strive for perfection. treat it like going to the gym for your will power. you don't get bigger muscles from one session at the gym. it takes consistency over a long period of time. same thing is the case for developing control over your urges. it takes consistency over a long period of time to have full control over your urges. when you fail, don't beat yourself up. you did nothing wrong. think of the failure as doing a workout in the gym until failure. your muscles can only go for so long before failing. same thing with your "will power muscle". work it out until failure over, and over again. this causes it to grow. it's a marathon not a sprint. your will power muscle will grow with time. just be consistent, and self aware. all the best.

because its not a struggle, you’re a man, you have testosterone- its your natural proclivity to wanna “release” bc many years of evolution dictated that. its just when you get that release so easily from something like pron, its more of a problem. but f-ing your girl every other day is actually more beneficial than anything. and I dont wanna be messed up but if it were the caveman days, there would be a lot less “morality” involved in that release- if you know what I mean.

There was a study I read on this, that might explain some of symptoms you experienced (MorePlatesMoreDates did a video on it). Around day 7 is when your testosterone peaks, and then it seems to drop quite significantly in the few days after that, which may explain the anger you were feeling by day 10 and 11. When our testosterone drops, it increases our anger (no idea why), which also explains why some body builders get "roid rage" after they come off a cycle (note: testosterone doesn't cause rage, but the drop in it does).

I think women dislike porn because it makes women less necessary. Men who don't watch porn, like my friend, are constantly validating women and play their mind games.

[@alid0228]

@@Ariovistus50 what a small mind you have. I encourage you to do research on the affects porn has on our brains. There's many reasons women don't like porn or don't prefer their men to watch it, however the studies show extremely harmful affects on our brains that very commonly quite literally ruin relationships or at the very least cause addiction which leads to many other problems. Only someone who really cares about what happens to their brain and how it affects their brain and life long term is going to even look into it and want to understand it. Everyone else will defend it because the ego wants to stay addicted and convince yourself it's "normal" and therefore shouldn't be questioned. I encourage you to look into "Fight the new drug" both on KZbin and tiktok. You'd be surprised the things you'll learn about porn that you had no idea about and then you won't be forced to make stupid assumptions on why women don't like porn. And by the way there are plenty of men who also choose not to watch it. It isn't just women who don't like it. And women and men can enjoy something but still know enough to decide not to partake in consuming it. Porn is designed to make you addicted to it. (Women as well) Do your research, it'll make you look less stupid next time.

The source for your increased aggression in week 2 : changing habits makes you more anxious (=more stress), and stress kills T. Also the vincinity of your dopamine source (Claudia) made it harder to resist (=fighting yourself), hence more frustration. Once the habits changed and the dopamine need was lowered, your T survived a lot better.

Great Challenge! As a Christian guy who practices or tries to practice that on a regular basis, it really changes your life and focus. Having said this, it is not a "dirty deed", but it is supposed to be the deepest expression of love and something wonderful for both people involved in the sexual act - but only as long as it does not become purely a thing of self pleasure but actually a self giving. Just as you said, it connects you on a deeper, spiritual level. That is also why ONS are so harmful, psychologically and spiritually for you. That is at least how the catholic church has been seeing it all along. Stay strong guys - and girls

[@sdfggdfg5fgdfg]

It's true there are people who are in relationships that use sex in an unhealthy way to to regulate their emotional state, or self medicate. They never learned to have control over their sexuality, their emotional state, or their relationship with their partner, and think sex is going to fix everything. Using their partner as a means to an end. A drug. Coomers. They should practice semen retention as well to recognize their flaws and start improving. It's also known as coitus reservatus or karezza. Orgasms are not an essential part of sex

[@Joh-jf5kc]

Personal experience on how I lastingly overcame my anxiety: It's a cycle of thought --> emotion (what you feel) --> thought --> emotion (what you feel) .... First you need to differentiate between these two. Because dealing with one is different from dealing with the other. Since it's a circle, you must break one of these, but you can deal with both. Dealing with the thought(s) is more important. The circle (your anxiety) does not disappear instantly. But it becomes weaker every time you manage to break one element of it. 1. Regarding the emotions you might search for breathing techniques or methods to cause physical pain to lessen the feeling. And remember the emotion (= physical, what you actually feel when anxiety manifests itself) is not the same as the thought which triggered the emotion. You cannot fight the emotion itself or run away mentally without making things worse. But what you can do is to face the emotions which means to become aware of your bodily symptoms and accept them voluntarily. Your emotions cannot (!) force you to fight them mentally (= with your thoughts). That’s how the chain between emotion and thought can be cut by refusing to fight the emotion after having had the thought. 2. Regarding the thoughts themselves: Your thoughts can become an inner circle if you start catastrophising. Catastrophising must be interrupted right at the start and must not be thought through till some presumed result is found which falsely promises inner peace. How do you do it? You must not try to not think about it because that does not work. Instead, you think about something else something that distracts you very easily (for instance, in my case that’s the latest football news). And now back to 1.. And remember, the anxiety circle doesn’t disappear instantly, but it becomes weaker every time focus on 1. or 2.. Your anxiety will steadily decrease by time, might take you days, weeks or months. But it works if you stick to it. You are in control. Your fear cannot force you to fight it. “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” (1. John 4:18, highly recommend the entire 4th chapter)

[@loverofhumanity]

@@SmuzeyHD too much of both is bad. The issue is semen retention is bad but its nowhere near as bad as having a full out porn addiction which is most guys and an increasing number of women in our generation. The ideal from my experience is just jacking off every other day but the issue is that it seems to be one of those things which can easily result in relapse. I did notice though that masterbating without porn seems to have less of a negative psychological impact if any compared to porn. I think porn is the real issue imo but the problem again is they go hand in hand. Very few people can masterbate without porn. It eventually gets boring and your brain wants more of the dopamine release.

If you do think that then I would ask you to just use your brain. Sleep, working out, food and even just thinking about sex can increase your testosterone. He could test a day later and his testosterone levels would be lower. Even the time you test has an influence. This video doesn't prove anything about semen retention increasing your testosterone levels. Testosterone just fluctuates too much to really test if semen retention works or not

@Richtofen That's up to you. Maybe you'll be so happy with the results from 30 days that you decide to just keep it going this way. Maybe you'll decide it wasn't worth it. I just resumed "normal life" but as soon as I did that the quality of my life got worse.

[@The_Fitness_Vault]

@Richtofen I think you can have some “cheats” and still get a lot of the benefits as long as you set some rules. For Example, let’s say you’re allowed to do it once a week or once every two weeks(up to you, wouldn’t recommend more than once a week tho). You go and “do it” once, but as soon as you’re done, you’re done. No more looking or lusting, you have to put your mindset back on retention mode. I think the most important things are 1. Don’t go over your allowed frequency of doing it, 2. You have to be able to do it once and immediately move on. If you binge than you’ll probably hit a slump and it’ll take you some time to get going again. Tbh this is a hard way to do it and maybe it would be better to quit altogether, but it’s an okay solution if you want to get some benefits and still do it once in a while.

My first semen retention experience began with No Nut November in 2019 and i ended up lasting for 131 days. Started as a simple try and ended as a lifestyle. It was hard in the beginning especially because until that time i used to fap almost daily since puberty but eventually i got used to it and figured my life does not depend on masturbation or watching porn. I noticed a lot of benefits, such as high energy levels, better moods, more time efficient, more socially active and more confident and less anxious as a result, so thats why i kept going. My best streak came to an end because of the pandemic lockdown because i couldnt continue without being socially active anymore but play video games all day instead. After that big streak i had another during the next year’s summer which lasted around 65 days and did 2020’s NNN challange again but with a girlfriend too this time (probably only possible due our distance lmao). Outside of that, i dont remember other worth-mentioning streaks but from all this experience i learned how to keep the benefits even outside semen retention and most importantly control my sexual urges when needed. I think every man should give it a try at least once and who knows... it might be a lifechanger for you too!

I can't vouch for anyone else, everyone's results will differ I'm sure, but just for me this is what works. The first two - three weeks is super tough then it gets a lot easier.

Here's a little note about myself guys: I saw some videos like this before and was always skeptical about doing semen retention for multiple reasons: mainly because my libido is pretty high and I also find it hard not to look at pornography sometimes. For the sake of context, let's say I did it pretty much once a day before. After watching a few videos and thinking with myself, I reduced it to 2/3 times a week and my biggest streak was 11 days after 2 months of trying. It's not that much, but it's definitely something. From my personal experience I can tell you it's all about the process, the grind, you have to develop this mindset within yourself and that can take longer for some than for others, it can be easier for some than for others. I lost a 5 day streak last night and now I'm feeling even more focused than before, like "an animal" as he said, because I know my mind and my body can be stronger than this and I want that to myself.

Same bro my highest streak was literally just 11 days after few months of trying. I am on day 7 again with little urge

I did this when I went to rehab in 2008. I lasted 18 months. When I finally 'released' it lasted for about 15-20 seconds. Never experienced anything like it. -- The retention allowed me to focus on rehab and I got so much done accordingly.

Im a little confused on what semen retention is. does it mean you masterbate or is sexually active but intend to hold in to ejaculating for a long time multiple times?

[@ArrKayLondon]

@@kagetsku1309 You don't masturbate nor have sex. I don't know if they still do it but boxers used to do this before during training and abstain from sex before a fight to keep their aggression higher during the fight.

Hi, does wet dream cancel retention? thanks!

[@diamondbureauclan5358]

@@RelentlessGuille nope because you aren’t releasing it yourself the body tends to release sperm when the balls become full so it flush’s it out while you’re asleep

​@@RelentlessGuilleI think it doesn't since it is naturally occurring unless you intentionally wanted to have wet dream
