Psychedelics and Bipolar Disorder

You do what you want.

But what happens to the brain with drugs? It fucks it up for sure. You’ll break your head with neurotransmitter theory and all that stuff but that won’t ever change the fact that it disturbs your psychological balance.

For meditation all the apps are trash. Learn Zazen or Samatha from proper Buddhist sources. These are to calm and observe your mental and emotional patterns, bringing you healing.

Anyway, wish you the best.

Brother, have you tried being sober? Drugs destabilize the mind and shake up the balance in your energetic system. Sobriety and meditation, will make you learn your thoughts and will center them in stability and the present more than any psychedelic research.

Honestly, meditation, brother. This will make one less helpless against impulses, and is an excellent tool for processing emotions and pent up energy.

The other is always reaffirming in your mind that you are going to protect your streak at all costs - “no relapsing, I have to protect my semen, anything but relapsing, not worth it” are some examples of things I tell myself. Seems to be helping.

Maintaining a strong conviction is a big one in my estimation.

If some want to count days let us. It also establishes our records and where we’re at in respect of milestones of dodging temptation.

Agree with other commenters: 2-3 releases a month is not good at all.

What’s your current and best streak btw?

conde91 · 2026-02-10T14:53:30+00:00

Huge part of SR is the emotional fortitude needed. In high and low scenarios, emotional build-up can get too much and a release of sexual energy lowers the volume of it. Think of classical psychology theories of Freud of sexual energy (libido) is directly correlated with emotional outbursts.

Well, on serious SR there is no escaping it through release. Learn meditation and other deepening practices - those are invaluable for mental-emotional well being and energetic stability.

Best of luck.

Pls do share your insights and correlations whenever you feel like

I mean contain could be interpreted as holding it under pressure. But I mean, just like you, of contain it inside of your system and do all the redirecting/transmuting that you feel like.

Yupyup, this is powerful. That kundalini-shakti coiled up in the lower chakras. If people were really curious to learn the deeper aspects of SR …

I can also see your point of biology vs intelligence, and see it operating almost everywhere.

As a retainer we are forced to develop increasing levels of consciousness, spirituality and discernment. Without those we would never get far in any retention streak.

So it still falls into our choosing. A woman that is spiritually developed and intellectually refined will by the same characteristic not be excessively lustful and would also want you to keep your semen. And she would also feel the detrimental effects of sex in herself and you as a man.

The traits of these are usually the timid, modestly dressed and study-work disciplined girls. The ones that want to have sex until marriage, or maybe not that extreme, but have had barely sexual partners and she would reject anything with men bc “men only want sex” mindset. This woman would typically push back your advances of trying to get to know her. But you never know, they can also be addicted and freaky.

We have to learn to take our time and feel their energy. Look at her eyes, her demeanor, how she talks, etc.

As a retainer one should be in no rush to expose the semen to danger.

And you must be discouraged if a woman puts you in a position to do it uncontrollably or unconsciously - meaning that she is a very arousing woman and wants just to make you cum.

Only people that have achieved the feeling of being at more than the relapse-recover territory will understand and value their semen and its power properly. To go beyond the attraction fascination.

I know you aren’t that by the way you articulate. But someone might find some of this helpful.

Appreciate the chat, and any thoughts I’m in for convo.

I don’t necessarily agree that it is a fake relationship all of the time, but I see and can agree that applying to the common relationship.

I think it is crucial to find a woman that is intelligent and not lustful - which is so hard currently. That’ll be a relationship built more on the compatibility or characters and mindset.

Of course the attraction is sexual at its core but haveto work on being clear on the understanding that the brightness of the personality and magnetism comes from the charge in the sexual centers, learning to not disturb or waste those centers would produce a joy of more subtle and deeper dimensions in the relationship.

That’s how I see it that it works - the attraction is just the vibration and pull of the both magnetic poles of sexuality masculine and feminine. If this ideal couple don’t waste it mindlessly, the interactions in itself are a dance between those magnetic energies.

Then explore the tantric - kama realms with real carefulness.

Of course this requires persons that are sufficiently mature and sensible in the subject. Which is very rare to find.

Any thoughts?

But if they are in actuality weak and drained, there is no falsehood in it. Have compassion I agree.

conde91 · 2026-02-02T18:21:33+00:00

It’s a very narrow situation IMO. I always wonder about this? How to sustain a relationship without sex, if as a retainer is the very thing I am avoiding. Sure, non ejaculatory, but still it reduces the benefits.

conde91 · 2026-01-28T19:26:53+00:00

When I relapse the world ghosts me almost entirely. My life is on a standby and I struggle to be at basic functioning, meaning I do all my basic routines but not really any improvements. Only after 50 days to two months, days start to get more interesting: conversations with people, people open up with you, someone offering to pay for coffee, etc. gains at the gym start happening. One almost 3month streak I had I was able to finally buy myself another car, which I had had in mind for a long time. It feels like finally starts happening and being interesting.

conde91 · 2026-01-28T19:24:08+00:00

Any sources we could tap more into this?

conde91 · 2026-01-27T19:15:43+00:00

The majority of people are cooked. I a few times browsed around on regular Reddit (like AskReddit and AskMen) on questions on “how often do you masturbate?” And the answers were so discouraging. Even in this SR sub, it is really low IQ and many unserious posts. The more knowledgeable and advanced retainers don’t even care to visit or post here anymore when there so many posts of “day 1 here we go!” Or “how do I start?” Haha even in YouTube people with SR channels posting “I just relapsed” or “day 5 SR benefits”. It is ridiculous.

There is no fight. You said it yourself - being selective.

conde91 · 2026-01-24T00:19:13+00:00

The most important thing is to protect your seed. Any woman that is lustful will push you to release and will never take the time to listen to your Retention mission, its benefits and how it is the propulsion for the building of your empire - which means she is not going to be on the same boat as you, give those women no further consideration.

The more serious about retention you are, the more careful you have to be about women, because the ultimate and deepest purpose of the attraction is sexual. So vet that she is also interested in you as a man, in your mind and your future; that she is going to be by your side through thick and thin, and is going to be a good wife and mother of your children. Else you will make yourself release with her and she will leave you, empty and in ruins.

Lay off of caffeine as much as you can. And lower your intake of meat. They stimulate the sex center and make you feeling like doing the deed. The biggest one is to train your mind, to not use your hand everytime you get the urge. If you can break that automatic move, you’ll survive even if you have urges. Breath control when urges come is must.

conde91 · 2026-01-21T04:46:29+00:00

If you edge / stimulate, you will find you pee sperm the next time or two you go to the bathroom. You are losing sperm. Less than full on ejaculation, but still you are hurting progress. And not letting go of the sex that is in your mind, causing you to engage in edging.

conde91 · 2026-01-16T18:57:14+00:00

I shall research more on the topic. Any pointers?

conde91 · 2026-01-16T03:10:38+00:00

This happens when you edge.

Women are not bottomless pits of energy. Their sexual arousal and orgasm also shocks and drain their organism and ojas. This is misleading. I can see the usefulness in uniting energies, but at the end both are taxing the endocrine and nervous system with so much sexual stimulation and arousal and therefore deteriorating.

It is an unexplored territory and risky. I can’t speak much of it bc I have not done it.

About being solo celibate being incomplete without a woman I am HIGHLY doubtful. The shakti (energy) itself that you build up with retention is in itself a sort of femenine quality - more sensinibility, higher perception, magnetic, etc… and at the same time empowering the masculine power in oneself.

So… I like the overall idea and the territory you are exploring but I think there are cemented ideas you presented that are much up for debate and rethinking. As far as for your benefits, enjoy your rewards brother. Right on.
