I think the others can continue the experiment. Just omit the 7th day masturbation. Which I think is today

[john1234]

day 7.

i'm not going to masturbate. It's okay, considering I think everyone dropped out already.

Oh well.

My skin is looking better and better. The cysts are almost flat. My skin is feeling really soft and elastic and thick. Flakes are all gone. Mood is up.

I looked over my old posts and realized that at point in time I was absolutely championing masturbation restriction becuase of the results I saw. Now I realize why. I have to stop cheating myself. This is very well probably the only reason i have acne.

[john1234]

Thanks. How goes your backward experiment aka super daily orgasm.... : )
Or did you abort it after you left this log..lol?

Yay. Glad it's working for you

[AlexGF]

I haven't dropped out... but it's so hard to resist.. I hate being home alone... dude
I'll be back in this log in seven days and post my results

FOR SURE I WON'T CHEAT!

PS: is there any drug or anything that can lower your libido or sex drive? I think mine is too high sometimes and is not only about controling.. crazy hormones

[john1234]

Just got to avoid the visual stimuli-- no jennifer love hewitt ads or crazy dating commercials with women clearly flaunting their assets. And hit it when it's being bad. I mean, don't hit it. : )

Day 7:

No significant differences after the one orgasm I had this week. Some 2-3 bad zits on my cheeks and back, this morning (in the begging of day 8) they are almost gone.

[xquis3t]

I have been there for 3 months or so...it did not work for me, it just made these "wet" mornings happen, and it was good to finally masturbate in the end!

You said that your skin was better in the sea air, and this might be why: there are apparently more negative ions and more ozone near the beach (cleaner air), and these are responsible for countering the effects of pollution, thereby improving your health. Improving the cleanliness of the air quality, is probably going to affect your skin, seeing as your face is exposed to it every day.

As for masturbation, even religiously I do not think masturbation itself is a sin...it probably just depends on what you are thinking about. You need some sexual release...surely!

[john1234]

honestly, simply given the dropout rate of the experiment, I highly doubt that most people who claim they tried this experiment (on their own) truly came through and finished it. But each to their own. We'll see.

I'm back in, I started again on Monday. And I think it does help for some people, including me. My skin was healing very quickly from old zits the first few days. But now I have a new one on my jaw but it probably didn't help that I cheated on the weekend. Also, I truly think that a high sugar intake affects parts of my skin as well, mostly through clogged pores, so I think for this experiment to work I might try it with a few weeks of eating junk food and a few weeks of eating healthy food and less sugar.

day 8

2 flat cysts and a few clogged pores. Skin looking better and better. Mood also up!

[PlzWrkFishOil]

I'm on day 45 and beyond feeling loads of confidence, my skin hasn't seen a blackhead/zit in weeks.

I plan on going to 50 days then just limiting to once-twice a week.

I think that when you have excessive sex besides losing Vitamin A and zinc, you also increase cortisol levels, not lower them. So excessive sex can cause stress, not relief from it. Besides getting clearer skin and confidence, i've also noticed how my hair will actually lay down from its usually spikey self. Also i've noticed much more gains while working out when i limit "self pleasure".

Good luck to those in the experiment.

[john1234]

dang, 45 days!!! Record. Please share your experience with this in detail at the 50th day...that's crazy...

Day 9

Skin is looking fuckin good. Cysts are flattening. Mood is also up, even though life is crap at this time.

[Yankulov]

Day 9

Some new inflamed zits on my forehead.
Overall skin condition at this moment: no better, neither worse.

[john1234]

Day 10

No changes. Only red marks left. Cysts are totally flat. We'll see how fast these marks go away. Mood is still up.

[wakeboarder88]

can you still fuck

[john1234]

Day 11

Feeling pretty good. Only red marks left and a few clogged pores. Red marks look probably bad though I must admit. I think masturbation restriction is definitely good for spirits though, whatever that is worth. I feel more confident and less anxious with this regimen.

[karma89]

I'm gonna try and get on this. In the summer, I masturbated like once every 6-7 days and I STILL got zits so I don't think it makes a difference but let's see.

Today is Saturday, September 20th, 2008, and I will try to not do it for a month. Wish me luck....cause I'll definetly need it.

[john1234]

Day 12

red marks, I hate them...
12 days ago I was worrying about inflamed acne. Now the red marks. When can I start worrying about how damn good looking I am?
A necromancer moment.

Sigh..these marks look like a spotted leopard.

[karma89]

Um, yah, so that didn't go very well. Let's start it now for real, cause I have a shit load of assignments and tests all due this week that I've procrastinated for, so here comes the stress!
