Mood changes and Sexual Release

Hello, ever since I was a little kid I've always experienced dramatic and inexplicable mood changes based on fluctuations of my own body.

For instance, till a few years prior, I would masturbate constantly ever since I was a toddler. I would masturbate once a day but I would notice that I would have absolutely no mental energy to do much of anything. I wouldn't have energy or a desire to even perform basic, daily tasks like showering, brushing one's teeth, etc. Or to even socialize with people.

But ever since I began to obstain from masturbation, the longer I seem to go w/o releasing sexual energy, the more 'normalized' my sense of self has become. My mood is elevated, I feel the natural desire/urge to do basic daily life tasks, and I have energy to do things and to go out like normal people. My personality is also less grumpy, easily agitated, and more patient and calm.

It also appears, out of experimentation, that there is a positive correlation with fluency in mental capacity. My handwriting has steadily increased, my verbal eloquence is sharper, my spatial intelligence, attention span, etc. seems greatly enhanced and I feel that my brain is now using its 'normal' potential for the first time since I was born. Fundamentally in a nut shell, the longer I obtain from masturbation the sharper my mental cognition gets.

But if I begin to masturbate constantly again or release sexual energy, all of these mental capacities seem to inexplicably diminish again and my sense of 'self' and personality goes back to how I was once before...lack of energy and I'm a completely different person, albeit subtly.


Does anyone know why this is and if I'm the only one experiencing mood and cognition changes based on sexual consistency? Could this be a hormonal imbalance in the brain?

How do I maintain that 'normal' sense of self when I'm not masturbating but maintain it while releasing sexual energy? It seems like a see-saw paradox, I can't have one or the other.


I know this sounds bizarre but I've talked to other of my friends about it and they don't get it. Much appreciated if anyone can help me out and answer these questions. Thanks.

This can be diagnosed by just one blood test. Contact any pathological lab to get the sperm count test or any test required to find out the deficiency. Testosterone and estrogen levels.
Taoist yoga teaches to do intercourse/ masturbation without ejaculation you may even research'Edging' Where one masturbate till he reaches the urge to ejaculate.and pause fill he is subdued and then start again. Find the details of edging. This is usually recommended to train the brain to delay the ejaculation for longer period. .

Do you think it's the possibility that I might have a hormonal imbalance caused by my suppression of my sexual desires/appetite? Maybe low testosterone or Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism?

Till the time you get married or get a girl friend who is prepared to have intercourse, you try to stop masturbation by following some simple techniques. This will not be suppression of energy, it will be transmutation of your sexual energy to mental energy and chances are that it will help you to be more alert and progressing in your pursuit of enhancing your knowledge.It is worth trial.
As quick fix, learn circulating your sexual urge or consciousness around microcosmic orbit.It is a simple breathing exercise.Google microcosmic orbit and learn and do it. I an sure it will give you more dividend than just abstaining from masturbation.

Well I'm a virgin, for starters. So I'm hoping that having sex might attain a different psychological sensation than masturbating or having wet dreams.

Interesting. But the question still remains: how do I maintain my normal energy while releasing sexual energy by masturbation and sex?

If I masturbate or have sex I lose my mental cognition capacity. I don't want that at the expense of suppressing my sexual appetite.
