I might have relapsed 1000 times Since i discovered this practice 5 years ago i didnt went more than a week Since months if not years i thought it was easy at first but it seems impossible how yall do it ?
LONG AHH STORY TIME, GET GOOGLE OR YOUR BOT COMPUTER BIH TO READ IT FOR YA👽
9:09 rn I fw my angel numbers lmao
Man. Started this first ever in 2020ish going into 2021 and I was 14 going on 15 then. (20 now boutta b 21 soon). On the journey for bout little over half a year. Lost tonz on weight, 260 then dropping down to 170 in about 4-5 months and I was young so that fat ahh shxt I had on my body went away quick. Only reason why it was so easy for me was because I ain’t get no experience with a female around that age, even when I lost all that weight I felt ugly ash in the inside, n going back to school still “depressed” a little, had a lot of shxt going on. And in general I feel like I ain’t do enough for myself when it came to loosing weight etc etc etc. coo. 2022 I attracted a female I wanted LITERALLY Manifested I ain’t gone explain cuz it can b long but just know a little after a year w this girl i wanted to have a child, so such choices are made, have a beautiful healthy child. Coo. Me and this girl has out ups and downs, I still tried practicing it while with her but it wouldn’t be longer then 7 days. And my discipline is thru the roof when not releasing, but I would just retain out of anger cuz we had our downs but when shit get good again , think yk the rest. But anyway real recently like this year she did the most pathetic thing she could do to herself n cheat on me and talk to bih made ahh 🥷🏽 ‘s at her job. So obviously I left too and took my child (DAUGHTER) with me cuz I ain’t raising no H03 fasho. But it’s been 33 dayz today marks my streak and this shit is tuff for sure. I knew It was easier back then when I was young cuz I was a virgin but now I know what 🐱 feelz like fr a peice of that is in my brain at timez and ofc it’s all test, I know I can get some at anytime but I love my “godlike moralz, attention” etc etc 😂💀 “jkjk🙄” but besides that though fr I know i really need to do this for myself and not get distracted by the bullshit I know how the game HAS to be played if you’re on SR. I’m getting more buff exceeding reps, just on my 💩 fr.
But this time it’s lowkey a new experience now that I’m older. People from 2022 that I ain’t seen since then coming back into my like, yk old school homiez fr, if you reading this for research just know, YOUR MASCULINITY WILL BE TESTED. This shxt is not peaches and cream. So one of the homies I ain’t see since then pulled up on me, we drinkin whatever just for the nite, this 🥷🏾 want to work out, ok coo. Now he pulled up round 11pm I been workin out all day damn near. Just know I was hitting this little pathetic 30lbs bar weight we got did 400 shoulder presses 200 curls 100 pushups at least, just on my chill shit fr nothing krazy g. This 🥷🏾 pull up giving me workouts with the weight I got or wtv. He talm bout let’s hit 21 rep back to back, basically to 1 variation of a different workout each 7 reps, ngl I laughed but twin I was lowkey getting pissed, cuz it was this that he was trying “test” me with ? I stopped doing it at some point n sparked my cig lol this 🥷🏾 just got me doing pathetic ahh shxt now n I ain’t for it, and when u on SR you sense that shit like somebody tryna poke yo buttons but it’s their energy and not even what they say, yk? Just now Im damn near yellin at this dude at some point cuz he saying a bunch of stupid shit. Now I put this on my life he was in the marine ns and asked me why I’m not in the military, n look no shit this is the second mf that was in that space asking me why I’m not in the US military. My answer is obviously F the US especially rn, nah. But it’s just funny to me too because he bring his female over and I can tell she loyal and respectful fasho and I can respect that but I could tell if she was around a little longer me and ol dude would probably have an issue, just the classic shxt goin on yk, her takin long ahh looks at me ns, laughing cuz I told the homie( her dude) told this 🥷🏾 to stfu cuz he thought he had dominance in the room at some point. Honestly I probably wouldn’t even call it that completely. Just know dude was talking to the “room” but staring straight at his girl, I tap my brother that was right next to me to ask him question bout some small 💩, homie felt disrespected clearly saying, “HeY wHaT r We TaLkiNg aBt I wAnT tO kNoW”, yelling that pretty aggressively, I just told this 🥷🏾 “why are you hooting and hollering ns this ain’t got nothing to do with you I’m talking to blood rn”, his girl put her head down sittin there laughing ns 😂 then he tried to make it seem like a joke even tho he came off talking krazy LMAOO. This the typa shxt that happened tho females smell that 💩 if you on it fs and males too.
Just writing this so I don’t get stupid mind wasting thoughts bout FxKKIN The shxt outta some divine females guts on my day off on thiz beautiful spring of a Mondae Rising ☀️ only 10Am rn gotta get some shxt off my chest if y’all want to hear more lmk I can share more experiences her on this sub
It works like literal magic.
I genuinely feel like I’m on stimulants 24/7.
There is no way people say they don’t get ANY benefits from sr.
Here are just a few that I think are most important/memorable for me. Would love to know your experiences:
Day 15
Noticing people move slightly out of my way when walking, even when there’s enough space. Not sure if posture or something else.
Day 40
Conversations feel pre-determined sometimes. Like I already know what the other person is about to say a second before they say it.
Day 70
Time perception feels off in a good way. Days feel longer but I’m getting more done. Hard to explain without sounding crazy.
Day 100
Animals are definitely reacting differently. Dogs don’t bark at me anymore, and birds don’t immediately fly away. One literally hopped closer instead.
Day 130
Had a moment today where everything went completely quiet for a few seconds while I was outside. No wind, no sound. Felt like everything paused.
Day 150
Starting to feel like I influence interactions without speaking much. People adjust their tone around me automatically. Also noticing electronics glitch slightly more often when I’m stressed.
Hello People
Has anyone supplemented their SR journey with Shilajit?
I am looking forward to more gains in the gym hence thought about trying it out.
Semen retention is just a way to find your self in purity. While I enjoy reading about other peoples growth from this its time for me to go off the grid, I really want to direct this focus onto my purpose which is absolutely surpassing all of you in every aspect of life. I wish all of you the best and hope you never get lead astray.
okay so ive decided to fully try this semen retention thing since like 2 months from the start of this year my max was 9 or 10 days maybe after that its just like relapsing after 2-4 days im just very angry at myself like why waste so much time keep relapsing and then starting from over and over again my best was this 5 days i did and relapsed today i was feeling so energetic good things happening to me and all i have this habit of consuming p*rn and just edging maybe thinking that no i wont do it till the end which ik is the main reason ive been failing but idk what else to do need some tips .
I’m looking for an old YouTuber (around 2015–2018) who made very minimalistic philosophical/spiritual videos.
Details I remember:
Most important detail:
He made a final video saying he was quitting YouTube because he felt like becoming a “false guru” or that his ego was involved and he didn’t want to mislead people. Thats when I unsubscribed.
I have been searching my ass of the last couple days but haven’t been able to find anything about him anymore. I think he deleted everything.
Does anyone remember this guy? Im looking for a name or a video. If anyone knows anything you would help me so much!
I’m sure everyone has experienced this, when I’m interacting with people I can absolutely tell when they’re acting different because I’m on SR, whether it’s that their nervous, attracted, dazed, or intimidated, whatever it may be, it becomes so awkward and uncomfortable for me if I know I’m making someone act a certain way, that when I see it happening sometimes I start acting differently as well because it throws me off. and where I’m at in my SR journey, I’ve been able to very quickly and effectively figure out/notice people’s true intention that it kinda feels like I’m hacking… like life is a video game and I have a fucking exploit.. every text, whenever someone says something a certain way, asks a question in a certain manner, or tone, I pick it all up instantly and I know what they’re true intention is.. It feels like I’m living in the matrix. Maybe I have psychosis. Does anyone else feel this way? I don’t see anyone talk about this effect often
Greetings dear retainer friends, peace and blessings.
My last relapse was on February 18th, I must be around day 60. I've had at least 3 WDs in that period, but I remain firm, persevering and strong. Each day I get closer to God and to finding my purpose.
English is not my native language, so please excuse any mistakes...
Lately I've been noticing a pattern. I've always been a peaceful and calm person, and I still am. I've never experienced any tense situations before, precisely because I keep to myself and am at peace.
At college and at some parties I went to, it happened between numbers 30 and 60. The guys with their girlfriends felt intimidated by my presence, even though I hadn't done anything, just by being myself. And being around
There were four situations where the guy threatened to assault me out of pure jealousy. Since my nervous system is calm and I do boxing, I remained calm and quiet, knowing I could defend myself if necessary.
That's why I say that SR can become dangerous in some places; people with low vibrations will feel intimidated.
Take care of yourselves, try to learn some form of self-defense, and stay safe!
I wanna hear personal experiences
Before was so easy to get erection but now it happens rarely, it does but not like before, i was curios if has happened to yoall too?
I'm looking to hear from long-term practitioners about changes you've noticed in your hair (scalp and facial), nails and overall physical appearance since starting retention.
Specifically interested in:
I'm asking because I've personally noticed correlations between seminal loss and certain symptoms worsening (nail fungus flaring, hair feeling thinner, etc.) as well as possible improvement during longer retention periods. I'm guessing there's a depletion/repletion dynamic at play that doesn't get enough attention.
If you've put in the time and paid attention to these markers, please answer. What did you notice? How long before you saw changes? Did anything come back that you thought was gone for good?
Appreciate any firsthand accounts.
hey y'all, the gripe I have with nofap and SR is lack of evidence. May I trouble you folks with providing some body battery logs from before you started SR to after you started SR?
Sure there's a lot of factors that determine our body battery like stress, heart rate, and breathing, it's hard to find a control.
But I'm so curious, how well will SR affect you physically?
I will also try to do my part to contribute to this experiment!
Let me know your thoughts 🧠
I know a lot of people say not to do SR just for female attention, and I agree with that. But being honest, part of the reason I want to stay on this path is to become the kind of man who can attract a good woman and eventually find a wife.
I’m not trying to chase attention for ego. I mean female attention in the sense of meeting someone genuine, building attraction the right way, and finding a serious partner with marriage in mind.
For those of you further along, what do you look for in a partner to support this journey? And what challenges come up, especially around your partner’s desire for sex, and keeping the relationship strong?
This isn't the flatline, even though the flatline is its own kind of obstacle.
What I'm talking about is something way worse, and way deeper engrained in the psyche.
When you first start retention, before the flatline even hits, you usually struggle with obvious imagery flooding your mind.
That part is expected, and with enough training it eventually fades. Your mind gets cleaner.
The real issue shows up once you've passed through all of that. The flatlines, the mental noise, the wet dreams, the unconscious releases, all of it.
Even after you've successfully moved past those phases, something else appears.
I’m at more than 25 months of uninterrupted semen retention.
That’s when you start to get a big bump in perception.
You start becoming really sensitive to your own energy.
And that's when you start to feel the subtle lust still sitting in your mind.
That filthy bastard.
That disgusting, shady enemy.
He's still present, and he can show up at any moment to destroy you.
Lust is just here to zero you.
To vacuum all your good character and leave you like a useless waste.
You can feel it. It's almost palpable.
He wants to shut you down.
Lust isn’t love.
His only goal is your destruction.
Because when you're on successful retention, you become a valuable target for him.
Of course he won't show up openly anymore. He already lost that fight. You beat him in the open.
So now he hides. He waits. He looks for the right opportunity to come back and destroy all the effort and progress you've made.
And that is the worst feeling.
Living with the sword of Damocles above your head, and actually being able to see it.
Constantly.
It’s like being under pressure 24/7.
Don't get me wrong, being a retainer is wonderful. The energy, the happiness, the clarity, all of it is real.
But after some time of practice, you start noticing the other side of it too.
I'm at two years of uninterrupted retention, and thanks to the sharpened perception the practice gave me, I can sense lust still being there.
Still waiting.
It’s like having someone you don’t know hiding and waiting to stab you in the back at any moment.
So you live in a permanent state of alertness, always focused, always prepared, never really able to let your guard down.
Personally I can’t stand living with this enemy inside my system.
I don’t understand how most men accepted to be slaves and live with that sword all their life.
I refuse to be enslaved for an enemy that wants my destruction.
I hope that one day we'll be able to conquer lust once and for all.
So we can finally live free.
Unbound by those heavy chains.
Free, not slaves like most men.
I want to wake up one morning and feel free and truly light.
Knowing I've finally beaten lust for good.
But that day will ask for effort, and a lot of patience.
Because the ancient scriptures are clear. Lust is the worst enemy, but it isn't invincible.
It can be fought. And it can be beaten.
With serious, long term practice of retention.
Good luck to you guys,
I’ll stick to my vow and be a warrior until the end.
I was just scrolling reddit when i saw a post of this sub reddit about six months ago...i knew about no fap nit not SR...but out if curiosity i dig deeper and tried to give it a try...in the last six months i relapsed around 4 times.. i dont count days... i grew from 183 to 190 cms...i am 21 year old...i wonder if i would grow more if i practiced it earlier...
Greatest benefit: no its not my height gain, Good luck or attraction from women it is the MINDSET SHIFT...
A shift from procastination to taking actions...i might have grown taller because i started resistance training and taking proper nutrition..
But do you think it would be possible without SR..no it wouldnt...discipline is very easy on SR all you have to do is not ejaculate...i have improved other aspects of my life too...
I really thank god for giving men such a great vital essence of power inside us...
They always act like getting married and having children is such a huge accomplishment , even extremely dumb people get married and have children its nothing special
dont get me wrong it can be a wonderful experience but if you really want it its not hard to do
the moment you tell people you are doing SR and you dont need a woman in your life its like you are an alien threatening their way of life
i got into an argument with a woman , she asked me why dont i get married i told her that right now celibacy is my main goal and she started explaining to me how im wasting my life and that getting married and having kids is the reason God put people on this earth
She is engaged , all day looks at weeding dances , pregnant women , always sending romantic tiktoks to her fiance and yet she flirts with her coworkers , gets touchy/playfights with them , lets them grab her from behind the neck all kind of stuff like that and i really wanted to throw it all in her face " if your relationship/starting a family is the best thing why are you still flirting with every guy from work , touching them , leaning on them , if it was so important you would have more respect for your fiance "
but i kept my cool and let her talk but yeah thats the thing they mock us for being celibate/doing SR while they brag about their fake relationships , women that just want to get married , doing their stupid dance and be in the center of attention while the guy is getting screwed long term
SR just lets me see things how they really are , there might be some genuine relationships these days but they are just as rare as men doing SR
Greetings fellow retainers, I am writing this post to share the most important phenomenon which has helped me retain for over 2 years now (I stopped counting a while ago because that's how confident I am now). The title says it all. The art of not taking action is as simple as it sounds. I can't speak for everyone but personally I have always been lazy in many aspects of life and I think most of us are in one way or another.
There have been many times where my streak broke and soon, I started noticing the pattern. It starts off with a small trigger, this leads to peeking, then edging, and then ultimately you succumb. The trigger is unavoidable in this day and age. It can come from something as innocent as a womens lingerie ad. But what can be avoided? the next step i.e. peeking. Peeking is an action that we consciously make. So just noticing that you feel how you feel but being lazy about it and not taking action makes all the difference in the world. The only place where laziness is finally a friend.
It's also important to remember that semen retention is not just about preservation of our life force but something more fundamental i.e. the discipline of not looking at any random woman with sexual intentions without her permission. Some may argue that platforms like OnlyFans or pornography involve consent and therefore aren’t wrong. I would call this an excuse or at best, a justification. To be a man is to strive for control over one’s mind, body, and soul. Ignore the claim that “we are men, that’s just what we do,” because that isn’t a reflection of intentional living it’s often just a way to justify actions that go against one’s own discipline and values.
Try harnessing the true power and gift given to man in the form of semen, the central life force. This is energy that can be absorbed from within and be channeled into meaningful and great pursuits in the world. But if the fundamental thought process does not shift toward something positive, then that same energy is simply being directed toward negative outcomes. I would also say it's in a way weaponizing something which is inherently good. More often than not, this path leads to heartbreak, suffering, and dissatisfaction.
Try this, don't act on the urge. It will pass and believe me, after the 3-4 month mark you won't feel like the same person anymore. You'll find yourself genuinely respecting women, holding platonic friendships, and having conversations completely free of any ulterior motive. Life feels brighter, better, you are not just happy anymore, the only word I can come up with is to call this state of being as "blissful", only the real ones will know what I'm talking about because words alone are not enough to describe it.
Use this energy with intention, reserve it for when you truly wish to create life. Honor it for the purpose it was meant to serve. We're all navigating this journey together, supporting one another along the way. Stay mindful, stay strong, and good luck to all of you. ✨
So u know how when you edge, the sperm you edge has to be reabsorbed back into your body to recover from the edging right?
And when your on retention your body reabsorbs semen every 30 or 90 days, and thats when you start to glow
So i thought what if you purposely edge so your body can reabsorb it, that way you get the glow quicker and feel the benifits quicker on a streak?
Does this sound stupid or does it kinda make any sense at all to anyone?
Idk just some bs i thought of out of nowhere lol. want yall opinions
