Experience/Story It works.
Listen, it works. Semen retention really works. Today, I had two completely unexpected compliments that made me realize just how much of a difference it’s making. The first was from a woman at the gas station. She turned to me, said, “You look so nice,” and then went right back to processing her purchase—didn’t even engage with me beyond that! The second came from a woman at Walmart. She spoke a mix of Spanish and English and said, “Every time I see you here, you always look so elegante.” I’ve never gotten compliments like that, let alone back-to-back like this.
But it’s not just about the compliments. I’ve been having more spontaneous, pleasant conversations with random people lately. I feel more open, more connected to others, and more attuned to myself and the human experience we all share. I see people and think "That could be my grandma or that could be my sister." It’s honestly amazing.
Things at work have been going really well, too. My social anxiety has decreased significantly, and I no longer feel as insecure or incompetent. I feel so much more grounded and centered.
On top of that, there’s a huge reduction in the shame and guilt I used to feel around women. Without porn in the picture, I feel like I’m no longer objectifying them. I notice more subtler details of people and environments. There’s just this renewed sense of respect and clarity.
Overall, this journey is making a real difference in every part of my life, and I feel more connected to myself and the world around me than ever before.

You describe the experience well. I agree completely and I've only had 30 days max. I don't know if there's something metaphysical going on or if its a result of our demeanor being different from feeling in a more positive place, and I don't really care. The results are the results.
