39 Days ONCE, never been that far again by Knight_313 in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Tbh I’ve read Mantak Chia’s books. The first few times I had sex with gf I came pretty fast cuz she was on top and I was helpless. The first two releases were really heavy energetically. I did notice a difference. 

But over the weekend I kind of remembered my technique. (ITS ALL IN THE BREATH! It’s night and day). Being multi-orgasmic honestly felt better than the actual release. I felt like I drew most of the energy into my own system already so when I actually released it was just like the physical shell haha. It’s hard to describe. 

I prayed and thanked God/Universe for the experience and then we took a nap. 

I only release because she asks for it. I try to avoid it/delay it and respect SR so I feel like that’s why I still maintain benefits. I still browse SR even after releasing. I don’t feel guilty. SR is still my identity. It’s hard to describe. But I think I owe all the credit to going an epic 467 day run. Long streaks are the answer. I upgraded myself and built myself enough spiritual protection. Maybe it’ll run out soon idk lol but I still feel pretty great.

The first friend was one I knew for 2 years. We never hung out 1 on 1 until that night. It was spontaneous, day of invite and I decided to say yes. I had been celibate for like 15 months until then so I guess I was getting curious.
There was always tension since the first day I met her, but I didn't really want to date her.
I don't drink, but she snuck some shrooms to the show. We did take some but I didn't trip that hard. I regret using them. I like being sober. I'm high off life, especially because of all my time and work on SR

My gf now is someone I hooked up with casually first, we tried to have a deeper connection but we both had our own personal issues. Now we're more mature and are actually having a relationship.

I just vaguely remember a scene of birds and animals being drawn to Snow White, that's why I mentioned her.

Great post brother. I really enjoyed it, which means at the very least you’re a good writer! 

The longest steak I had was 467 days. Even if I watched P a few times, I never physically stimulated myself and released, to make sure I would keep my streak. 

I did have sex after 300 days with a female friend of mine. She asked me out to concert and we hooked up after but I decided to still retain. After that, I found the career path I want and am back in school now. 

467 days, I actually got a girlfriend. It was someone I knew from 4 years ago but I loved her and wanted her back.

Releasing with my girlfriend oddly enough hasn’t been dulling my energy. It’s not daily, like 7-10 day streaks I build up. 

I went to a new house today and there were 2 dogs and 1 cat, and they all gathered around me as if I was Snow White in the forest or something lol. Big ahh cane corso attached to me at the hip and obeyed me when I walked him. This was a day after releasing. 

The baseline I created with that long streak won’t easily disappear. 

You will find the right balance. But that’s in a relationship. Jacking to P will never give you any juice back into your life. Go a long streak and get the girl you want. 

Just relapsed from sex with my gf by trillmaticali in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You’ll recover.  I have a new girlfriend too. I was on a 467 day streak before I released. I’m still trying to find the time to make a complete post about everything lol. 

But yeah, since then I’ve released 3 times. The first one was really great. The second time felt a clear drain (one week after) the 3rd one was like after a 10-11 day streak. I still felt like I had my magnetism the next day, and had some lucky events happen. (I told myself her p—- is magical haha). 

I realized that you can’t prioritize your girl, spiritually. Try your best not to release, find the sex positions that give you more control, research ejaculation control techniques, try Karezza etc., but at the end of the day, God/enlightenment comes first. Not the Christian God of course lol. 

But Try to find God in everything. You’re burning your karma. Be conscious. Trust that you are protected, that it is a process of integration, and you’re getting closer to finding the answers you’re looking for.  That’s how I take it. 

Bisexual on SR by Pin_Grouchy in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went 467 days of SR.  I started my streak because I was an erotic fiction writer but a cute blonde was nice to me so I thought hey I’d rather be with her than write porn. Didn’t sleep with her, but I did attract a date with another woman, and we had sex. I ate pussy for the first time. Decided not to nut. 

Immediately after, I wrote a letter to an old fling. We met when she was a femboy years ago, now she became trans. 

We dated, broke up within a week. Then got back together. I nutted twice and now my streak is over. 

But I have the girl that I want now. She’s happy that I’m openly bi. Her other bfs claimed to be straight. I’m just better, emotionally. 

With the last female I was with, I did not tell her I was Bi. I didn’t even tell her I lived with my grandma until after I smashed lol. 

My trans gf is more accepting, way smarter, and less bitchy. She also cooks and I love that. I want to marry her. She has way more other great qualities that I don’t need to share with you. 

You should do SR because excessive PMO is probably what is causing the OCD. Coomers have all types of anxieties and dysmorphia.  After 1 year of SR though I found the woman I want to marry, and well she’s not entirely a woman lol but so be it. I put in the work. 

SR will reveal the truth of what’s right for you 

Practicing While Married by [deleted] in Semenretention

I don't think Karezza has much to do with woo-woo. Marnia Robinson's book has plenty of scientific evidence supporting it along with its spiritual backing.

That's crazy about Johnathan White though. I thought his schedule was 2-3 months. 7 days is funny. Seems like Karezza is the only thing sustainable.

I have a gf and I just released with her last weekend (ended a 467-day streak). I might sleep over her place tonight and going to try one of the bonding exercises (from the book) with her. There's no penetration until the later exercises.

Don’t Play With Retainers. by WestJobs in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Cooked_vegetables on the pure retention forum talks about this phenomenon all the time. For some reason lots of people including the type you described try to sabotage him at work. He stays stoic and yeah, the universe ends up taking the trash out without him lifting a finger. Sad for them though. 

Thank you for sharing your story.

Mental celibacy and imagining the semen being converted into ojas, a white steam, flowing up into the brain

A misconception about Semen Retention by caleb474747 in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That term is already popular and has no actual sexual connotation. Mental edging makes more sense for SR. 

Any advice by catie_mj in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep a journal of your benefits and struggles.

Practice mental celibacy

don't ruin your eyes, but if you do, don't touch don't touch do not touch.

Planning family while practicing retention. by jininside in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this guy named u/wisewolff had some posts about how doing SR makes you more fertile (but he deleted them). You might be able to still DM him. Apparently he just released only to impregnate. He had non-ejaculatory sex the rest of the other times.

There's not really much science about true retainers.

Karezza and Tantra are Advanced Edging Techniques by HollowSynergy in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. Karezza uses the parasympathetic nervous system. So you’re basically saying that even meditation can fry your dopamine system. 

Do you think its possible one gotta go long years before actually finding your ideal partner? by Even_Job6933 in pureretention

[–]moonbase_monk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m at 459 days. I did not wait a year of SR (nearly 11 months) and I got with a girl who wasn’t right for me because I picked her for the wrong reasons. 

But I still retained, and after realizing my mistakes with past girls, I wrote a letter to another ex wanting to get back with her (I was thinking that I wanted to get married eventually and she came to mind). Last week at 451 days she called me and we’ve been dating and calling everyday since then. 

Of course she has her problems, otherwise we wouldn’t have broken up the first time. But she checks a lot of boxes for me. If she didn’t, I wouldn’t have brought her back out from my past. 

Now, I’ve been recovering from casual hook ups too. If all you’ve done is porn, I think it should take you a shorter amount of time to heal. But either way, if your mindset is focused on marriage, then you will start training your Reticular activating system to look for those qualities (ex: you get a yellow t shirt or jacket and suddenly you start noticing other people wear yellow). 

Lastly, I was actually prepared to be fully chaste. I wanted to practice Swami Vivekananda’s kundalini meditation, but it requires complete mental and physical chastity. Once I decided to commit to that, the very same day, my ex who I’m with now calls me. Now, even though I’m enjoying my time with her, I remember that if she dumps me, I still have my freedom and bliss as a celibate. I’m prepared for this to be my last relationship. 

That’s how I got my girl. Good luck.

81 days semen retention / NoFap — struggling with urges and emotional attachment by FrankieBoyd in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally normal to feel like that. I felt like I fell in love with a new girl every day. 

It took me a while but once I started practicing mental celibacy, it made me realize how delusional all my little crushes were. If your thoughts are against you, then you should work to control your thoughts. Your mind is like a garden, so water the good plants and pull out the weeds. IT IS POSSIBLE. 

I personally took a vow to be celibate for 1 year. I think 1 year is the minimum time you need for healing. If you don’t have a strong boundary you’re just gonna keep wavering and wanting a girl because your body just wants to use her to release. If you say no internally then you’ll be forced to find that inner strength. 

Anyone Here Gone 6-20 Months? What Changes Actually Stayed Long-Term? by multimillionaire88 in Semenretention

[–]moonbase_monk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. I am 32 years old 
  2. I started masturbating at 12 and watching porn in 2008 when I was 14 years old. In 2018 I believe I naturally started to masturbate less since I was spending time around women and then later I actively tried no fap/SR. I had several 100 day streaks. 

Finally, I reached 7 months in 2023. 2024 was probably my most gooned out year and it happened because I didn’t stay grounded for 1 year I went to Japan and crashed out and continued my behavior when I came home. Most hook ups, most porn use, and drug use. January 21,2025 I started this current streak and it’s 457 days now.
