My Afghanistan No-Jerk Journey

[Tzel]

Hello everyone. I'll keep my introduction short and to the point as possible:

I'm in the US military and currently deployed to Afghanistan until early June. Although I MBed a few times while I've been here, I decided the other day to try and make it through the rest of this deployment without jerking off at all, for a few reasons.

1) I've heard that limiting your ejaculations can boost testosterone a little. Since I'm doing lots of weightlifting, I'm curious to see how this will affect my athletic performance.
2) I'm in a steady 2 year monogamous relationship with my girlfriend, and we have an outrageously good sex life. But one thing we've both kind of fantasized about is having me get pent up to the point where she can make me cum with as little stimulation as possible while I'm still wearing my briefs, before we've gotten to any kind of penetration. Sounds weird I know, but I think we both have a little turn-on for prejac.
3) In my experience, MBing regularly has actually caused me to have diminished feeling during intercourse. So I'm also trying to maintain that pleasant sensitivity "down there" for when I get home and get down to business with my lady.
4) Wet dreams, of course. Since puberty I have had consistent WD's as long as I'm not regularly masturbating, but even then I'd still sometimes get them regardless. I'm 28 and the frequency of WD's hasn't shown any sign of slowing down. I used to find them annoying in the past, due to the mess it'd cause, but after years of holding them off with frequent MB, I realized they're much more pleasant and interesting than just jerking off.

So I guess I'll start off with the first WD... Last night!

I hadn't jerked for a good week or so, so I've been feeling that nice horny, energized "buzz" that I suppose might be due to slightly increased T levels? Not sure, but either way it's good. Anyway, I sleep in a pair of sport briefs usually, sometimes a T-shirt along with that. I've worn sport briefs all my adult life and think that they might in some way attribute to a low, but constant state of arousal... I just really like how they feel and look on me, and the sensation of having a WD and gushing into them is pretty awesome in my opinion.

Unfortunately I remember little about the dream itself, it was just one of those quick 'episodes' in that subconscious channel-surfing kind of dream that I usually get. Basically I was back home with my girl, sitting on the edge of her bed and slipping out of my cargo shorts as she strips down to her panties. She straddled herself in my lap and we started kissing, her hands feeling down my back, me slipping a feel down the waistband of her undies... And as I felt my erection pressing against her, I had that sort of warm, 'pulling' sensation in my lower abs that told me I was about to cum. Whenever I have WD's, I always feel the sensations all the way, and it kind of blends into whatever's going on in the dream. So I feel 'on the edge' for a good half-minute or so, then suddenly feeling my pelvic muscles pulsing as I gushed load after load of semen into my briefs with her still grinding slowly on top of me. At that point I kind of half-awoke at the end of the ejaculation, and the dream fizzled.

Needless to say, I had to change my briefs before heading off to work this morning.

Feeling definitely turned on by the experience, but just a little less "buzzed" than I was the last few days prior to it. i mainly just have to focus now on not MBing, and to constantly remind myself how much better it feels to get that release "hands free".

Hey!

A very hot and interesting experience you've posted about.

Sounds as though you are likely to get many more. Only after such a short period of abstaining too. I'm still waiting. lol Not in any hurry though.

What you described about feeling things before they happen sounds familiar. Does seem as though you're on the edge for a while before things happen. Hard to determine how long it actually is.

I often find I am more sensitive after waking up from a wet dream too.

[Tzel]

Hey there Josh, I noticed you were successful in making yourself come without touching. Is there a thread where you described how you achieved that? I've definitely been wanting to learn that myself!


Looking over this forum, it was a bit surprising to me to hear how many guys actually struggle to get WD's, or stop having them after puberty altogether. I suppose some of the reasons could be simple genetics and natural bodily differences, but I do suspect some of it may be related to health aspects within your control. I've noticed, for example, that heavy exercise tends to cause me to be more aroused in general, and to have more WD's than I do during periods of inactivity.

If anyone's curious about my lifestyle, I take multivitamins (mainly Optimum Nutrition's Opti-Men, protein supplements, nothing fancy), and eat a diet high in animal protein, lots of eggs, healthy fats (olive oil, fatty meat, and nuts), lots of fruit and raw vegetables, small amounts of dairy. I also drink maybe 2 cups of coffee in the first half of the day, tea in the afternoon, and have a little bit of dark chocolate (the low-sugar, bitter 80% or higher cocoa kind)... but I avoid corn, wheat, legumes, and sugar altogether. I drink lots of water, never drink soda, even diet soda, and I only use honey or agave as a sweetener. Since I've been doing this, I've noticed my energy levels and quality of sleep has improved. I do normally drink a few beers or shots each week though, so that is my one drawback... But there's no booze in Afghanistan, so I'll be going dry for a while, which can only be a good thing. I also notice that I have to sleep a good 8 hours a night, no questions asked, if I want to perform optimal and have any kind of dreams.

Everyone's nutritional needs are different, so I won't say the way I do things will work for you, but it's what I found works best for me after many years of trial and error. I find that since I've gotten on this way of eating, sleeping, and working out, orgasms are a lot more powerful than before, and there's a lot more fluid in my ejaculations. But as soon as I don't sleep well, don't eat right, and stop exercising, that all goes downhill.

Hey!

Very interesting on what you were saying about diet and activity levels.

I haven't been overly active until recently. Yesterday I did some swimming and last night I got close to having a wet dream.. Today I have done some trampolining. It may sound silly but that gets your blood pumping and is a good low impact exercise. It will be interesting to see what happens tonight. :-) it could be coincidence , but I think there could be something in it.

I'm also drinking more water. Means a few more toilet stops but it does make a difference. :-)

As for the hands-free ejaculation , I haven't made a post on it. It is something I've always wanted to achieve. I used (when I first abstained) to wonder if it could happen. I haven't experienced any spontaneous ejaculations yet. I know some guys report these happening. I wouldn't mind experiencing these. Though, they (as this hands-free ejaculation did) do delay wet dreams.

I have had it happen a good few times before.

This time I suddenly had this awesome feeling in my penis whilst at the computer (at home) whilst doing stuff which wasn't sexual. I thought that it may be possible to cum if I were to lay down and enjoy the constant twitching and sensitivity. I was right! I just lie down on my bed with my penis out and let it get hard and twitch on its own. Slowly the feeling builds until it triggers orgasm. It is as good as a regular orgasm. Not the most powerful but is rather long. The build up takes a while and the orgasm is quite lengthy as it is hard for the brain to trigger.

It has been about 18/19 days since this orgasm so things are very sensitive again. I have had a few moments whereby I have felt close whilst my hard penia twitches fro the pleasure of being hard in my boxers. :-/ I kinda don't mind if this happens but would quite like a wet dream before. If it happens, it will prob delay a wet dream and may happen every time rather than a wet dream.

I don't take any multivitamins but may start.

The only thing I have found is I am more irritable. I am hoping that a wet dream cycle will stabilise my mood as I am getting regular ejaculations.

[J0SH]

May also be worth mentioning that I have tried since to orgasm from just being hard and get so close but it just doesn't seem to happen... My mind gets distracted and that's it... I am wondering whether this is a transition to WDs...

[Tzel]

Well, a week and no other WD's yet. This is slightly unusual for me, but I think it may be related to the fact that I've been eating late dinners (very BIG dinners at that), which causes me to get a really full bladder overnight. I don't drink much water before bed, so I think most of it is moisture exracted from the food digesting as I sleep. Looks like I might need to eat drier foods for dinner or find some other way to not have to wake up so damn full of piss!

On the plus side, not having an ejaculation the past week has definitely left me pretty buzzed and a little more energetic. My workout routine is going great, and I'm lifting heavier than I ever have in my life, and slowly noticing the bodily results from it. I've always been lean and able to score top of my class for fitness tests, but now I'm focusing on getting some muscle size to throw around. Slowly getting a bigger/firmer chest, shoulders, arms, legs.. So far so good. Can't wait to freak my girl out when she sees me unclothed for the first time in 6 months. I'm no scientist, so I can't really speculate how much testosterone I'm holding in by not releasing it through ejaculation, but I am definitely having faster strength/muscle gains now than I have in all my previous workout routines throughout the past 2-3 years, so I may as well keep it up.

In other news, I recently ordered some new underwear from JM, a brand that makes some really soft, stretchy briefs that I've found really pleasurable in the past, though lost the only pair I had several years ago. I find that having a new pair of athletic, sexy briefs (and occasionally boxer briefs if the mood strikes me) tends to put me at a constant, but manageable state of mild arousal, so we'll see if this amps things up a bit for me. Here's the briefs I ordered: http://www.internationaljock.com/jm-ski ... 78744.html

Well, perfect timing. Had a wet and wild dream last night with a lot of fluid release, more than what I usually ejaculate during my average WD's. Normally sex is when I have the most amount of semen (anywhere from 7-10 heavy spurts on average, and a few smaller aftershocks), and I'd say this was maybe around 6-8 heavy pulses during the ejaculation.

Felt freakin awesome... But I was still insanely horny afterwards, and still am right now. Too bad my girl wasn't next to me to finish up with!

[Ronald]

Congrats on your wet dream! Keep up the good work!

[Tzel]

Well, I'm sick. Afghanistan is an endless buffet of weird diseases. Probably won't have any WD's til I recover, ugh!

[Maximus]

Sorry to hear that, Tzel. Hope you get well sooooon...

[spermgod]

hey tzel-

first, i hope you've recovered. i've read some about the health concerns for those stationed in the middle east. i hope your illness was one of the more benign varieties...

secondly, i like how you emphasized your positive experiences relating good overall health with sexual health. the body is a holistic machine and what a person does with it in one arena will definitely affect another. like you, my gym time is really important to me- not for looks, per se, but for maintaining a fit life including my mental well being. it's amazing how much of a difference i feel since starting up at the gym a few years ago. and it's definitely and directly helped in my sex life.

third, the mastery of one's sexual desires is crucial for expanding the power, intensity, frequency and enjoyment of sexual experiences. that has been absolutely true for me. abstaining for a purpose, as with increasing your fun with your gf or trying to increase the frequency of WD's, brings a level of pleasure most could not enjoy otherwise. even putting off the inevitable orgasm by edging or abstaining for a few days makes MB much more satisfying. and i LOVE riding that "buzz," as you call it.

thx for the pic, too, it's hot and a reminder as to why we come to this forum...

take care- sg

[becky]

You are doing well indeed Congratulations!

[Tzel]

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone. I'm still sick with Bin Laden's Revenge... But was slightly recovered enough to go to the gym today and do a chest workout without any noticeable strength loss. Felt dizzy as hell afterwards though. Sex is about the last thing on my mind when I'm sick... So I don't foresee any WD's til I recover, but I'll keep you all posted.

[Tzel]

Man, so yesterday while out on convoy I had to quickly get out of the vehicle I was driving. I'm 6'2... Pretty tall, and squeezing in and out of the vehicle is always a hassle. I don't know what happened, but somehow my trousers had ridden up so high on my waist that, while I was contorting my way out of the vehicle like a retarded Houdini, it pressed one of my balls so hard it felt like someone had socked me right in the crotch. Still sore today from that, and definitely makes sexy thoughts a bit difficult.

This must really be my unlucky week.

[spermgod]

sucky, yep, and i hope that's the only bad luck you have over there. and thx for protecting us, man...

[wolf_of_benjamin]

cool, I thought being in the military was fun!

[mzero]

Thanks for sharing, Tzel.
One question: In the place where you are, do you usually sleep this way (in briefs and shirt) or you just had taken your pants off to take that picture?
I suppose you're in a tent (or something), and since you're a soldier, you have to be on the alert and dressed, don't you?

[Tzel]

Hey everyone, sorry for the recent silence. Been awfully busy lately and not getting much sleep... Which means no new WD's to report, sadly! Seems like I need to get a good 8 hours a night to have them, and I've been so tired lately that sexy things have been the last thing on my mind. But it seems like I'm getting a little more downtime again, so I'll be getting busy on getting myself charged up again.

Thanks for sharing, Tzel.

I usually just sleep in briefs and a t-shirt/tanktop, yeah. I don't live in a tent though, I live in a connex building (basically a giant shipping container) pretty deep behind the wire, though my job has me outside the wire several times a week. I sleep with my gun next to me, and I figure if we get indirect fire (mortars, rocket, etc) when I'm in bed... Well, guess I'll be diving into the bunker in my undies. Weirder things have happened here.

[Tzel]

Oh! I did forget to mention this. I slept pretty well last night, for the first time in a while. I had a good 9 hours of rest, and I recall at one point having a fairly sexual dream involving my girlfriend. Nothing too specific (the usual fooling around and foreplay stuff), and I remember feeling some kind of dry contractions. They weren't quite orgasmic, but felt like it was the same muscles, just without the semen ejaculation and euphoria feeling. When I woke up there wasn't any moisture in my briefs, so I'm not sure if I dreamt it entirely or if I was doing kegel exercises in my sleep. Unlike some guys here I don't pre-cum much unless I'm deeply turned on (ie: cuddling, foreplay, or doing some really deep fantasizing), so that's no surprise, but having dry contractions is a new one for me. Interesting to say the least.

[ATC747]

At least you are better from being sick and you seem to be enjoying the process which is great. Congrats on the last WD btw. Keep going strong bro.

What weirder things have happened there?
If you want to share them with us, of course.

[crazynhyper]

Your experience is amazing! I envy you very much. Do you think that being uncut has anything to do with it?

I wonder if porn-use has anything to do with your libido. How much do you use porn and masturbate?

[superprick]

Do you ever give yourself any stimulation at all or do you completely abstain? I usually stimulate an hour a day without ejaculating.

[crazynhyper]

Hey Tzel -- how is everything these days?

[ducker005]

Tzel are you OK?
