I'm on a no fap of currently 7 days. Running through the trp checklist and this is one of the last habits I'm breaking and took me longer than I'd like to admit to stay dedicated on.

Day 2 or 3 was the hardest. I was super horny mentally. Took everything I had to not jerk one off. Day 6 my balls hurt when I went to bed like I was being blue balled.

But here's the thing. Passed day 3 I have noticed a huge difference in how I feel. I Don't feel tired. I feel like I have more energy. My focus has been inconprehebsible. Usually I get distracted easily. Lately I've noticed myself be more in the moment and caught up in what I'm immediately doing. I've also been more zen like. By that I don't mean calm because calm is the wrong word. But I definitely feel less emotionally effected. No doubt the result of more testosterone in my reserves.

I have no idea why this is. My last sex fest relationship we fucked nearly everyday multiple times a day and I felt unstoppable. So why is it when I'm jerking off It makes me tired? Or less focused? Granted in the relationship I didn't feel like I had to try so hard because life was good. I was getting paid and getting laid. Now that I'm learning to live the Bachelor life I have to improve. That could definitely be a factor of the tiredness. One last key piece I'm not a chronic masterbator. I'd normally masterbate once every one or two days. Sometimes a few days in succession.

I digress. I see how this habit can be a crucial component in game based on how I am feeling on day 7. What gives?
