Having read stuff, I'm interested now... About whether or not masturbating can have a negative effect on one's energy level. I have had a chronic energy deficit that has gone on for several years now. I masturbate over 5 times a week. I'm going to try and abstain for 2 weeks (14 full days) and see if I notice any energy improvements. I will post-up along the way with my observations. There have probably been threads like this before. If you guys and gals want to discuss coping with more erections in public and wet dreams, please do so here.
I went about 6 weeks without blowing a load. I didn't notice any more energy than usual. I didn't have any wet dreams either (I've never had one ).
That's discouraging. Yeah- I've only had three or four seminal emissions (intense Jennifer garner wet dreams). Anyway... i usually wank to keep wet dreams from soiling my sheets. Also, masturbation seems to keep my boners from being difficult at work when i'm standing in front of people.
i dont think u loose any energy with masturbation but in any case you can drink a bottle of red bull and gaining it back
I find that wankin it makes me more calm and relaxed. When i try to go days without it, i feel very uneasy, uncomfortable, and the opposite of relaxed.
is trouth that with masturbation you loose some energy for this reason athlets have to avoid both before any athletic ivents. But for normal ppl this is not important take in account the relief that you get after cumming by either ways
Thanks for the contributions to the thread. I think the only way I'll find-out for sure what the best thing is for myself is by abstaining for a month and seeing what happens. Thinking back on my wet dream phase, I think I slept better when I was getting ready to ejaculate in my sleep. It's just a matter of preventing the mess I keep mentioning. I had blue balls this morning. ow.
I think I'll make a thread to use as an outlet for this sexual restlessness I have. I'll use said thread to write detailed sexual fantasies. For those of you who are still masturbating, i suggest you check-out some of these stories. Another benefit of not masturbating [and being horny instead] is that I'll be more desperate for female attention. It will probably help me try harder to get dates and have sex.
it's been eight days. Haven't noticed much difference. It's gotten really easy to pop a stiffi any time now though. Sex drive is high. Repeat- sex drive is high.
Not masturbating for extended periods, especially before having sex, can also have its disadvantages (although this can sometimes be an advantage, depending on the circumstance). In particular, it can put ejaculation on a hair trigger that can be released by something as minor as a bump in the road. This is particularly a problem when having sex as you would be likely to ejaculate, even before any sexual contact, let alone managing to achieve penetration. This is why, if you believe that you are likely to be having sex it is often a good idea to make sure to masturbate at least a couple of hours beforehand. I, on the other hand, have a slightly different problem. Due to side effects of certain medications I am on, ejaculation can often be very much delayed (which can also have obvious benefits, to a degree), but if I have a sex date lined up then I try to abstain from masturbating for at least 24 hours beforehand, so as to make ejaculation easier. As it is, I find holding out for even that 24 hours to be a major challenge to will power, making it worse the more I try to consciously deny myself. Regarding the part about athletes abstaining from masturbation before an event, so as to conserve their energy, that's just another of the old wives' tales to be included in the warnings of growing hairs on the palms, making you blind, giving you spots, etc. Masturbation is a perfectly healthy & natural activity which should not only be nothing to be ashamed of, but something that should be actively encouraged.
(DING DING DING)...WARNING! BORING THREAD...(DING DING DING)...WARNING! BORING THREAD...(DING DING DING)...etc...Yawns, falls asleep and collapses into a state of unconsciousness.... PS. Hearing about people abstaining from wanking, fucking and sex in general is as boring as listening to people droning on about their dreams last night..... AAARRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!
Sorry...What did you say? I just nodded off...and..[yawn]...time for bed. (Does a reverse spiral up his own arsehole - sound effect of bath water going down plug hole.)
you do know that if you go without ejaculation for more than a week you will have wet dreams and will make semean at night regardless of what you do. So I really don't see a point.
It's actually better to keep yourself active. Instead of trying to repress your sex drive, use it. Use it for creativity. Channel it into something you really want to do. The results will be completely massive. Try it.
Thanks for the helpful, detailed post. I laughed about the hair trigger ejaculation. Ha ha. It's so true. When I abstain for more than 10 days, just watching a porno (without even touching the dick) can almost make me ejaculate... I'm not in a relationship right now, so i'm not about to have sex. The second I start dating again, I'll start conditioning myself to last better than 10 seconds (the way it is now). I'm not really noticing more energy. i might start to wank again. I haven't had any wet dreams even though it's been about 10 days. Weird. Winkie: I know that this thread isn't as fun as some others, but I'm trying to actually get some help. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it. Try not to be such a Butt Head.
I have been in a better mood over the past few days and I do have some more energy. It's not much, but noticeable. However, I love masturbation so I blew a load this morning. The first few shots were pretty powerful, then it kept going (like porn stars do). I enjoyed it a lot. I'm gonna' try to abstain for two days again before I blow another. I'll keep track and see if I feel more tired again.
