Some notes

Hey all,
Just wanted to say that I read about dipke3's method and the impressive response it got, and gave it a try. Originally, when I started reading this forum I wasn't really willing to abstain for long periods of time -- if I feel masturbating on certain occasions would be helpful for my physical and mental well-being (e.g., to get better sleep), I probably wouldn't keep myself from doing it, let alone for weeks or months at a time. However, there was a method that seemed to be successful for some, and it seemed like a fun idea to experiment with it to see what would happen.
After 7 days of abstaining and 4 more days of visual stimulation for as long as I could, it did not work. Not only there was no WD, but I also found the method impossible to follow by the letter, as visual and tactile stimulation without any masturbation cannot keep me in a "constant state of sexual arousal" for more than a little while. I could add a couple more details on this story but I don't want to make this post too long.
The nice thing about this is that I found it surprisingly easy to abstain during these days. Not that I didn't watch porn during my AB phase -- maybe I did for 15 minutes or so some days, before or after bed, to enjoy having an erection while horny. But that was it, I didn't need to start furiously masturbating or edging or bringing myself to orgasm.
I guess I could get over this and keep on ABing to try to get a WD, haha, but I think, now I'm done with this method, I'd rather go out and find a sexual partner. Who knows what will come first?
Cheers to all.
