Don't do any heavy workout or push ups out of frustration & anger, (after ejaculation body needs rest) only light work & daily chores

Long Breathe slowly & Sit with your thoughts-Meditate; why you failed to divert your focus when the urges hit

Diary journaling : Write few lines about how & when you relapsed at what condition (sitting alone in room, scrolling through social media or midnight sleep urge) this helps a lot !!

Key things to remember : don't talk much, don't get angry & beat on yourself, don't get stuck in relapse loop convincing yourself I am failed after so many attempts so I should relapse for this week, don't do it.

No spicy binge fast food eating as sexual activity & fapping increases unusual appetite & cravings to salty, spicy & sweet foods

Uplifting Affirmations while breathing & meditation : I will never relpase again , I know what I suffered due to this habit so I will not continue this habits, I know porn & fapping has severely affected my life so I will not fall in the trap of urges & fake dopamine hits etc .

[ Make your own as short as possible, quick to remember lines in your mother tongue ]

Hope this helps you can add on your own things from past experiences.

When you quit PMO and retain your seed, acquiring other good habits becomes much easier. This is not a superpower but is how we were meant to live !Because not only are we practicing self-control which is required for other good habits, but you avoid the shame and guilt that causes us to search out myriad coping mechanisms. Not only PMO, but things like overreacting, drinking, smoking, etc.. the guilt makes us search out things to numb our minds to the negative thoughts and emotion.

Quitting PMO is quite literally a domino effect. Just see what else in your life changes. I’m more confident in social interactions, I’ve been eating healthier, praying, reading, going to the gym daily, and it doesn’t take as much will power as it would’ve before. It leads to powerful feelings of optimism and hope. The benefits compound themselves and nobody will ever regret quitting those life degrading habits. It's like snowball effect. It is the CATALYST to sustainable self-improvement. It’s hard to start, but once you get the ball rolling it gets easier. Anything with momentum becomes easier to push forward. And this applies to habits as well. So get momentum and trust the process.

Those who thinks SR is some kind of one stop solution to every life problems, change your mindset, cause ultimately it's you who have to figure out solutions by using the energy, clarity, intelligence, emotional maturity given by SR. You have this opportunity to pursue your goals, use it fully, extract all the essence of this masculine purity practice.

Yeah you will be tested multiple times at different points of your life with women temptation, urges, money scams, drug addictions etc. Don't try to fit into the old habits, there will be days of apathy & flatlines but you have no other choice except holding your frequency & vibration standard up. Matrix hates men with full sacks charged with VIRILITY, but don't get derailed, discipline is destiny 🎯.

Stay Chaste, Stay grounded 😌🙏🏻.

Found this info (online somewhere) of a Finnish med student's self-researching on T level in SR , I correct all grammatical mistakes , Long post , take time & have a nice read.

I'm 22 yo medical student from Helsinki, Finland. I have done some extensive research to determine if there is some mechanism through which abstinence could have an impact to things many of you have reported such as deeper voice, increased growth of beard, more muscularity etc. I have found a possible explanation to those and I can quarantee it's not all about placebo! I'll try to speak plain and simple language.

Most of the physical benefits seem to be such things that are greatly affected by testosterone. Anyway, you all know the famous study which proposed that plasma testosterone levels spike around day 7 of abstinence. Then you also know that testosterone levels tend to crash back to normal on days 8-10. Then why does the physical benefits really come after much longer abstinence? Testosterone molecule is totally inactive in the bloodstream. It's only a messager which in most cells activates synthesis of certain proteins (hormones, enzymes, muscle proteins etc.). The message is carried on only if the testosterone hormone binds to its receptor (androgen receptor, located in the nucleus).

Now I want you to understand that the effect that testosterone has depends from the amount and activity of androgen receptors as well as from the amount of testosterone in bloodstream. So how do we increase the quantity of androgen receptors? - By abstinence, it seems. You all know the theory about our dopamine receptors and what PMO does to them. There is evidence that suggests that the changes in hormones and neurotransmitters caused by orgasm or ejaculation decreases the amount and activity of androgen receptors.

Here's my theory from biochemical and medical standpoint...

• Days 1-5 : testosterone levels steadily increase.

• Days 6-7 : testosterone levels spike radically. Because of abstinence and higher testosterone levels (positive feedback regulation of androgen receptors) quantity and activity of androgen receptors increases.

• Days 8-10 : testosterone levels crash back to normal, because plasma free testosterone is bound to increased amount of androgen receptors. This is where it gets truly interesting! Next chapter is a bit filled with medical terminology so bare with me...

Here's what should happen next, if my thinking and medicine textbooks are correct: because testosterone is lowered to the "baseline", negative feedback-loop kicks in. Plasma testosterone levels are regulated by HPA-axis and many negative feedback-loops. Now that testosterone levels are lowered, hypothalamus (endocrine gland and part of anatomyous nervous system) produces more gonadotrophin releasing hormone. That stimulates the pituitary gland to produce more lutenizing hormone (LH) which is the major regulator of testosterone synthesis in the Leydig cells of testicles. LH greatly accelerates the rate-limiting reaction of the reaction-chain that synthetizes testosterone by speeding up the transport of cholesterol derivative te to right cell compartment. The cholesterol derivative is used to make pro-hormone pregnenolone. That's the first major reaction of testosterone biosynthesis.

In plain language this means that if abstinence continues testosterone levels will rise again well over the baseline and the same cycle begins all over again. So your testosterone levels and most importantly your androgen receptors will increase more and more by every cycle. That would explain the flatlines and highs that you experience when on longer "streaks", bottom line being that all the time the impact that testosterone has on you will magnify. Some benefits like better skin can be result from zinc that you save by not ejaculating frequently. It's a fact that the zinc concentration of seminal fluid is relatively highest of all human tissue. It's a fact too that human body does recycle sperm cells and seminal fluid at least to some extent.
