No Fap actually changes

[Aeris]

8 times to "none" of course the energy level density between both should be huge

good sleep & 1/2day & good quality food

and you can fap probably 1 every day.

try meditation & enlightnment ( cessation of identification with thinking ) you'll feel like a god.

@TrynaBeTurquoise yea totally but I just feel like such a dick bag when I do fap, I feel like my life energies are being robbed. having sex requires connection, intimacy, understanding, some problem solving, physical effort, being in the moment, ecstatic presentness... Im sure that does something to counter act the act of losing semen.

I don't know how valid this is but Paramahansa Yogananda talked about the releasing of semen as if it was losing a lot of life force, same was said by sadhguru. 

You lose life force, but its still a function of the male body to ejaculate from time to time. You dont want to overdo it leaving you drained but the semen is meant to flow out eventually and not get clogged up in there for long periods of time. When you ejaculate you should do it with conscious intention. 

Its counter intuitive at times. You could be so afraid to "lose life force" that you just never ejaculate ever but deep inside you want to and its draining you, and ejaculating might actually GIVE you life force from all that relief it would provide you for that moment. But this is an extreme case.

For you though, its obviously best to retain it for a while because of your struggle. Don't be too hard on yourself. Instead of going cold turkey, you could do (if you currently ejaculate 5 times a week lets say) do 4 times this week, 3 times next, then 2, then 1, then keep it at zero for a few weeks, then re-introduce 1, and keep it at once per week every one or 2 weeks.

Careful, can be specially self-deceptive the longer you go on it, because the mania.

As long as you don't see it as the magic pill or use it as a self-deceptive mechanism (very difficult until you see it for yourself) I agree no fap makes your life brighter, less anxious, more grounded.

But remember that NoFap "it's just" an aid. You should strike to feel as secure and confident normally as you would do in No Fap.

This is coming from someone who made it 110days of NoFap, and yeah was "amazing* for feeling grounded and confident in social interactions.

However I discovered porn/jacking off was not the problem. NoFap helps as for example a drug works, it can make you feel alright but beware that it's sold to be against it (porn/jacking off) is not really the origin which cases the illness. Hard pill to swallow but the soon you got this the soon you will actually transcend it.

 

Having said that , I try to schedule my life I'll masturbate the least I Can. Never really a lose of energy and focus feels right so fapping it's really just a representation of a inhability to use or transmute the energy of your root chakras.

@Javfly33 sure. many yogis and wise sages promote abstinence, there must be something to it you know
