I'm currently 23 , i'm afraid to get in a relationship for the obvious reasons, i'm having trouble trying to find a job that suites my condition , am also having problems writing about this in details currently because of pois
Topic purpose:Do you have a suggested format for each summary? I think all of us should do this, so we have a complete record of our condition.
To collect personal summaries and histories regarding POIS.
Note:
- Eeach summary should have only one post
No matter how many times I say "never again" after masturbating, I still end up doing it every other week or so, and the shame of it really gets to me. My entire life is just one long string of illness and recovery only to know I'll be ill again very soon. Even if I manage not to masturbate, I'll eventually ejaculate in my sleep; there's seemingly no escape. I've been suicidal and desperate not to ejaculate, but I can't get out of the pattern. I heard another sufferer compare it to drug addiction - you know what it's doing to you, but the urge is just so strong. And when I'm very anxious - free-floating anxiety being another symptom of my depression - I have the urge to masturbate more as a relief. It's a terrible circle.
Urano75: How do you take all these supplements..I mean dont you eat normal food ? Dont you think you are taking too much and that they may harm you ? I read all these things that you take and i 'm wondering myself what the heck should i start taking too ? I mean is it normal too take so much ? For me even taking one supplement is strange and i have qualms ..I 've also read from many other users the huge amount of supplements they are taking..I mean is this normal ? For me its like doping yourself..I cant understand this technique..
hello everyone I am bulbo
I was bright and very active when i was a child. As i grew up whenever i thought about girls i lose the ability to think clearly.So i started to mug up concepts instead of understanding them. At that age i thought i was studying in a proper way. As i grew up i found out that i can understand concepts but cannot retain them in my mind and also i am slow at understanding.But i dont have adhd. Then i searched in google and found that i had pois.
The day following nocturnal emission will be very hard.there will be occassional sneezing and nasal discharge. My muscles all over the body are weak.I have reduced appetite. I dont have muscle pain. I have reduced taste perception. I have cognitive impairment (cannot understand what i hear, cannot comprehend things from a textbook, cannot store new facts and i forget what i have learned earlier), my eyeballs protrude out. But on that day if i sleep for half an hour in the afternoon, then my pois goes away. Then i am able to study very well, muscles are strong, no protrusion of eye ball.
On a day without pois, if i think that a girl likes me, then pois sets in even before pre ejaculate is released or erection occurs. Cognition is impaired, eyes protrude out, muscles are weak. I am very lean. But if i sleep for some time pois goes away.
At 19 yrs of age i had post void dribbling. Urine gets collected somewhere between bladder and penis. If i press below the base of penis, the collected urine is forced out. I think i have cowper's syringocoele. I have pois after every urination.
If i masturbate, I have very severe pois. This pois dont go away even if i sleep for half an hour in the afternoon. It last for one day. i feel fresh on the next day.
Niacin works for me.I think it is due to its anti inflammatory action.
Etoricoxib also works for me. (etoricoxib can cause gastric ulcer, altered taste sensation, congestive heart failure). I tried it only once . I will never eat etoricoxib again in my life, never.
I am a MBBS student. Because of pois , i think i wont complete the course
I've given-up too, nothing works except to abstain from sex. I tried edging, thinking that if I didn't have an orgasm I'd be ok, but those experiences have only brought on more difficulties with trying to get to sleep. Basically, I am aware that if I have sex I will lose sleep for next night or two, it will affect my mood, and makes me anxious and irritable. So now that I know what I was experiencing for much of my life, I try to keep my sexual gratification on a need basis. Now I can generally go eight to ten days without sex, more if I consider the alternatives, although after ten days my mind becomes preoccupied with getting off. Last night I had another sleepless night and so decided to come to the site to see if anything new for me to consider. The forums don't look very optimistic, and so I am feeling hopeless, and resolute.
Hi everyone. Here's my POIS tale:
As with all of us, we are faced regularly with the tradeoff between fighting the temptation and feeling normal, or giving in and facing "the monster"!
Hey,
Seems like this might be the place to put an introduction. I've been lurking for a year or more. I actually first searched for my malady as Post Ejaculatory Depression a number of years ago and discovered a rock band. You can still Google that string and see my post on TaoBums from back then. So, it's not new to me.
Even then the first diagnosis was guilt. And, that's what I thought it was for years and years until I started becoming more self-aware -- and enjoying my sexuality more.
So, what happens with me? My symptoms come purely from ejaculation -- not orgasm, not arousal, not porn, not fantasy. Thank God, because I enjoy them all. I enjoy intercourse with orgasm and no ejaculation. I also enjoy a lot of masturbation without ejaculation and occasional orgasm. I enjoy erotica and I write about sexuality.
When I ejaculate, though, in from 12-24 hours I'll drop into an ugly POIS state. I lose my absolutely winning social skills, have difficulty stringing coherent sentences together, recalling simple facts and focusing on a task. I want to do little but withdraw. I have little desire to do anything to help myself feel better. I experience irrational feelings and thoughts of paranoia.
It will last from 24-48 hours and end abruptly. Then in about two weeks I'll experience another, similar day.
The only thing that seems to work well for me is abstinence from ejaculation. I've tried fish oil, fenugreek, garlic, niacin, antidepressants, etc. with no noticeable improvement. I've had some success with masturbation within the 12-24 hour period before symptoms begin. That sometimes lessens the effect. I also once tried ejaculating every single day -- that was a cure I dreamed up with my psychiatrist. I lasted about three weeks -- couldn't sustain it.
I used to elaborately plan my ejaculations, considering what I may be responsible for 1-2 days following my thrill so as not to mess up my relationships too terribly or even worse, lose my job. And, since ejaculation is so rare, it's worthy of special consideration to be savored and remembered.
Now, I'll abstain from ejaculation anywhere from a couple weeks to over three months. That's how I manage for now.
Fortunately, my quest to feel better has led me to an absolutely enjoyable fascination with sexuality as a whole. I've discovered a lot of ways to express my sexuality in my life, alone and with my partner beyond genital expression. While I still often think about how nice a really messy ejaculation would be, I find pleasure in learning to play sexually in a multitude of other ways.
I am, however, considering another "ejaculate every day" test to just see how it goes. There may be a hefty price to pay My constants are: a diet low in grain, dairy and non-organic foods and high in veggies, fruits, great meat and healthy fats; outdoor exercise (I bike a lot); laughter; supplements (fish oil, magnesium, D, C, and B-complex) and artistic expression. I have some symptom-reducing ideas I'd like to try.
Thanks, everybody, for your great posts, openness, vulnerability and collaboration!
Prancer, you askedQuotehow do you have an orgasm without ejaculating?. It's pretty much how I enjoy sex (and sex is really important to me) and avoid POIS symptoms as much as possible. Of course, I ejaculate occasionally and suffer symptoms, but mostly I enjoy sex, and just don't ejaculate and avoid POIS symptoms.
First, Prancer, you need to separate the notions of orgasm and ejaculation in your head. They are not the same thing. They are not interchangeable terms. Neither is evil to us, they're just different experiences, that's all.
Separating the two helps you to reframe sexuality for yourself. Most people see sex as an event with a beginning and an end with orgasm with ejaculation being the end. If -- as for us POIS guys -- orgasm or ejaculation presents a problem, that thinking causes a serious problem for the entire event because it can't end.
So, you simply remove the obligatory end-piece and reframe sexuality as a continuous journey. No part of sex needs to be there at any given time. Orgasm or ejaculation or foreplay or kink or porn or erection or fantasy have to occur at any time and in any order. Just be sexual and enjoy it.
This lightening up about sex, has for me transformed my POIS. I still have symptoms from time to time, but way less obsessive about it. I just enjoy what comes and do what I want to do. If I wish to ejaculate, I just think ahead a little and do what I can to lessen a couple down days.
If you want to know practically how you can orgasm without ejaculating, I can write more about that. It's really not that hard and changes how you approach sex. Again, much much lighter -- less seriously, more just for fun.
Peace,
I'm sorry, but I just can't believe it works like that. The same kind of logic Pony is using is what the doctors and psychologists would say to me when they started to think my POIS was a psychosomatic (read: psychological) issue. They would say I need to relax and not worry so much, and my psychologists would try to find some kind of hidden block or trauma that was causing me to induce my POIS symptoms...
I am far from a doubter on holistic, alternative medicine in general. I have practiced mindfulness and meditation for years, and have spent much of my life deconstructing my preconceived notions about who I'm supposed to be or how things are supposed to feel. To become reality based, in short. And I just don't see any matchup with Pony's explanation and my abilty to realistically have an orgasm without ejaculation.
I fear that this is all a post-hoc explanation, something that was made after the fact. It doesn't sound, Pony, like this was a plan you followed that resulted in your separate orgasm and ejaculation. And on those days that you do ejaculate, are you surprised and disappointed that it happened even though you were doing exactly what worked before?
I'm sorry if I come off as harsh or too critical here, but I really find it frustrating when someone posts about how they claim that, if we only convinced ourselves that ejaculation and orgasm don't need to happen at the same time, that we can achieve this separation. What's so different about you Pony that allowed you to achieve that? The fact that you offer some kind of explanation is polite I guess, but honestly I'm not really sure if you know how it happened in the first place? How do you know it isn't something different about you physically? And not in a place like the brain, were psychological approaches can in fact change our bodies?
I just think it is very important to be careful here because it can make people feel disappointed. If you try and try and try, (or as many Eastern philosophies propose, stop striving or trying so much) and yet you ejaculate and orgasam together no matter what, than that is disappointing, a painful thing to feel. And I don't want anyone here to feel the pain of getting their hopes up and trying to achieve something that may be impossible for them.
I think you are a rare person, Pony. And I would do anything to be able to have the ability you have, even if it doesn't work all the time. It's hard to know that I am unable to orgasm without ejaculation. You know how much time we men spend playing around with things.......... =/
I wouldn't worry about it too much.
The main question is why do we POISers get symptoms, whether from orgasm, ejaculation or both, and other people don't. That's fantastic Pony has found a way to avoid symptoms by not ejaculating, but it still doesn't solve the main POIS mystery. Hopefully, our answer will come soon though, now that the research is about to begin.
Also, it says Pony hasn't been active since July so I doubt he's reading any of this right now.
Still interesting yes, and Pony seems like a very, very cool person, but the main question is why do we even get symptoms in the first place.
Hello Cornelius , i think we have reached a common thing between poisers u have said that u had allergy before and then after antihistamine the immune system started tolerating it , well that is impressive cuz i had the same story mosqito bite eczema , and am kind of know the allergen " hous dust mite " skin prick test reavealed dust mites are cause of my allergy and am still having it , i am going to do desensetization therapy for my allergy and treat it , what i sufer from is only head manifestationbut no any physical problems on other parts of body , have any one underwent desensitiZation therapy for his allergies
Hi Quantum....thanks for your reply
My curiosity: The fact that your situation is different regarding cognitive symptoms. I would presume that inflammation after O in your thyroid is not as severe but rather more in chest area, or am I wrong?
Quantum, I have seen you asked few times for some description of symtpoms/remedy of poisers in order to make a chart and try to identify some predictable patterns accoridng to pois type. I believe it's a great idea so I will start here (not sure if it is the appropriate place though):
My symptoms:
psychological: concentration (always), memory (3 to 6 days), social skills (5 to 6 days), bad mood (3 to 4 days), stress (3 to 4 days)
physical: difficulty breathing (2 days), red eyes (4 to 5 days), intense fatigue (3 to 6 days), easily fatigue at sport (2 days), insomnia (always).
What is working for me:
complement: magnesium, zinc, b complex
meds: right after O mythelase + lecithin (get me rid of 90% of my symptoms). Then taking it once/day for 3 days.
Other: abstinence, sport, fasting, meditation.
I don't know if it is precise enough because I don't have any scientific methodology.
I strongly encourage mythelase + lectithin, it is working very well for me since 6 months.
Cheers,
POISse
...POIS is still a "puzzle".
Dear Fellow POISers,
I have been following the POIS Center forum for a while, and I am immensely grateful for all of the treatments, experiences, and stories you all have shared. I feel that it is time to join you, and share my experience. I have suffered from POIS since puberty, and my symptoms have progressively worsened from 1-2 days to a full 7 days after emissions. I have less symptoms from nocturnal emissions, and most symptoms from an induced emission. Being in medical school, I was able to manage with a strict abstinence routine, however recently after taking Tramadol for a month began to experience spontaneous fluid emissions (simply coming in contact with shorts, sheets, and in some cases from laughter or simply walking across the room). These have not stopped even after stopping Tramadol, and I needed to take a leave of absence from school.
I have read that Prozac (fluoxetine) can be very beneficial in terms of increasing ejaculatory latency time, in theory preventing spontaneous and nocturnal emissions. I noticed that a few people have had mixed results with Prozac, anyone else tried it, or have any advice with regards to SSRI's/other medicines that reduce frequency of emissions?
My experience with Tramadol led me to broaden my perspective with regards to the autoimmune theories, as my condition moves from POIS to POIS + PGAD symptoms. I am now very curious as to whether POIS Syndrome results from a spinal cord abnormality. Dr. Komisaruk recently spoke on Tarlov cysts in Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJvfyTvqs38), and mentions that Tarlov cysts could cause other sexual disturbances given they take place in the region responsible for many sexual functions. Looking further, there is some recent research on the way in which the GRP system in the spinal cord regulates ejaculation (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25426011), and on the fact that there is possibly an independent itch driven mechanism from this system - raising the possibility that POIS is not a primary IgE allergy mediated process. There is also research on the role of GRP in immune system activation (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22735756).
In brief, this seems to raise the question for me as to whether POIS could be the result of neurological disease in the spinal cord (Tarlov cyst or other lesion), that is inflamed by ejaculation. I have severe constipation, urinary retention, and pelvic pain after ejaculation, which can all be seen in Tarlov cyst disease. I am going to have an MRI of my spine soon, and I'm curious to know if anyone else has had a spinal MRI? Or similar symptoms including pain with sitting down, hyper-sensitive feelings or decrease of sensation in the lower body.
I would like to end this post by emphasizing that my medical knowledge is rather limited, I am very naive in my medical training, and these are simply ideas that I had.

Thank you, Spartak, for this detailed account of your POIS history ! Thank you for having taken the time to write and share this on the forum.Hi,thank you Quantum!
I will stay connected to hear about what brings you some relief, and hope to be able to integrate some of your data in my POIS types chart.
I wish you to find a way to adapt to POIS, like abstaining for longer periods of time. I know it is harder when younger, but for us, it sure has advantages. What helps me to extend to a release once a week or once every two weeks is to find other significant source of pleasure in life, like playing sports or playing music. I wish you to find something of this kind in your life, and enjoy more POIS-free days.
You are 100% responsible for what you do with anything I post on this forum and of any consequence it could have for you.

i got this from 15-16yo up until now so its almost 2years and Ive Almost totally abstained from masturbating for 1year and 1-2month maybe But anyways i had wet dreams and They caused Symptoms like light headednes disorientation(when i closed my eyes i felt like i was floating in space or something) And Almost everyday if i tried to even memorize something for my studies it caused That uncomfortable undescribable feeling and I my sinuses were tight and i had stuffy nose all day(before pois I almost never had these kind of stuff) And i can tell you (i can feel it) i had a serious change in my brain I mean there was a moment 2 years ago that everything changed the brians way of going to sleep/The way i felt down there /orgasm seemed More like a burning Wiers but still a bit releasing sensation /and When i closed my eyes i felt like although everything is dark But There was kind of a A buzz On that darkness (like a like that rapidly turns on and off it was dark but That Darknes kinda resonated Or something (thats what i meant by a buzz)) all kinds of wierd stuff man And I had to sometimes study plus 15-16hours so... You probably understand how real the problem was and to me it was worse than cancer cuz You can tell no body no body will understand and even if you Find somespecialist thats ever heard of this Theres little chance they can do Anything for you you probably have to deal with it for like decades Or until you die and you know what ? You know what bro? Jesus christ healed me We all have a heavenly father that loves us First of all i was afraid to ask God to heal me I felt like i was too bad(i still feel im too bad because i really am i am a sinner We are are but I feel like a super super great sinner and if i Quit some of my sins Its just be cause of the lord)
But A few days ago i guess it was 30-31august (so maybe 10days ago) I got up that wierd feeling inside of my head was there(again im telling you Before that i never had any Issues i was almost the healthy normal 15year old teen and I took a Brain MRI and even after Getting pois i had No Brain Problems ) So when i got up that wierd feeling was there Nothing was new i knew it i knew i wasnt fixed and i knew That This Change is No joke there is Somehing really really really big Wrong with my body somehing definitly doesnt work and its bad enough to kill me anyday and anytime(although our lives are in lords hands ) And for some reason i said no this shouldnt be this way i started reading the bible( i do almost every day i guess so nothing new) But this time i was like Lord i cant take this anymore/or lord im a christian No sickness shall defeat me like this for the bible says no weopen that is formed against thee shall prosper And everytongue that shall rise againstme in judgment thou shall condemn For this is heritage of the servents of the lord and their rightousness is of me saith the lord(sorry if i got the verse wrong but thats all i can remember you can google it its isaiah 54:17) and i started reading Bible verses on healing and I dont remember exactly but i read Afew verses Before these From the bible app and I was really beleiving that lord has already healed me And No sickness shallenter me And I guess when i was reading Healing verses of bible (i dont remmber the exact time but this is What i remember I dont want to give false testimony but thats all i can remember excuse me for that) I felt something changed in my head it had no pain no bad feeling Nothing big ( i dont take Any medications regularly except for some amoxicylin and I guess that day i didnt take nothing And Theres no chance that anything else healed me ) So From that moment I felt like 2-3years ago It was like I was back to living And i had read Bible healing verses before but this time it was different And After that time I dont feel this at all i still have that stuffy nose and sometimes that Light sensitivity (Mild increased light sensitivity ) but i dont feel uncomfortable At all Plus i had 2-4wet dreams since then and Almost NO symptoms and even that stuffy nose and light sensitivity doesnt bother me much at all Its all back to normal Guys please beleive this This is no joke and i didnt ask God like this "if you real Then heal me !" i dont remmeber but i guess somwhere in the bible jesus says:"do not put the lord your God to the test" its luke4:12 i guess im not a preacher and im not trying to Interpret something from the bible and act like i Know alot about the bible But this is what God did for me And I was not worth it but His Grace healed me And He Is real Shout out to The Guy who said there is No God there is absolutly A Most high-most graceful-Fully rightouss God dont ever deny this No matter what Anybody says Ive Seen Way more than enough to be convinced even before this happened...
So im asking you as the bible says repent from your sins Turn to God beleive in Our lord christ jesus As you savior and that he rose in the third day and that he saved you (again im no preacher for exact words of God you can read the gospel of luke john ...) And beleive all things are possible through God
At last may God forgive me for mistakes i mightve made In what i wrote above And Sorry for being too long but This is to tell You what this life really is about and how merciful our lord is and this is all about God Not me so theres no point of Lieing
All glory to God And God bless yall hope i see all of you fully healed ??????

Okay, time to come back down to reality KIA. It's great you're religious and you believe it has helped you. I can't tell you how many times I have prayed when I was younger with no answer. I realized it was completely upon myself to figure out how to relieve my symptoms. Diet has truly healed me, not god. God gave you a brain and the best thing you can do is use it. Do not expect miracles or else you'll never figure out your POIS. It is a health problem and although praying might have it's benefits (stress reduction and the like), it's not going to cure your POIS, if you really have it. It wasn't until I found my diet in which I was TRULY healed and could have sex without consequence.
There are many members on here who had an NE without consequence only to have POIS upon further "experimentation". Your not really healed until you can have sex everyday without any consequence.
Please don't preach on here. Your starting to sound like my username. There are many people here born into various religions, or not religious at all, by chance. It's great you're religious, just please keep the rants though. This is more of a scientific forum.

Hi KIA777
Thank u for ur reply..... continue fighting.... never give up
It seems that increasing my caloric intake made the difference.
Pois symptomsGreat news wolf berry, oxytocin perhaps does have a role in POIS, I remember each time I see a girl I like I get more social and more attentive. Maybe giving your method a try could help.
Brain fog: Extreme social anxiety , Lethargy, Severe depression, Severe Anhedonia, extremely sugar caffeine Mono-Sodium Glutamate Sensitive, insomnia, Asperger, ADHD, Schizophrenia like symptoms, Bipolar ( hypo mania and mania like symptoms, Schizoaffective like symotoms, Paronia, Delusional
One other thing - when I am suffering from POIS, it physically feels as if my frontal lobe of my brain has almost closed down, and what conscious thoughts I am having are coming from the sides of my brain, which apparently are the temporal lobes.
Wikipedia says
Damage to the frontal lobes can lead to a variety of results:
Mental flexibility and spontaneity are impaired, but IQ is not reduced.
Talking may increase or decrease dramatically.
Perceptions regarding risk taking and rule abiding are impaired.
Socialization can diminish or increase.
Orbital frontal lobe damage can result in peculiar sexual habits.
Dorsolateral frontal lobe damage reduces sexual interest.
Creativity is diminished as well as problem solving skills.
Distraction occurs more frequently
Some of these certainly ring true from my experience of POIS. If I had to guess which area of the brain was most affected by POIS, I would definitely pick the frontal lobes. Plus, the frontal lobes is where most of the dopamine lives, which is possibly one of the things you are interested in measuring.
Physical symptoms: joints pain, itchy eyes, red eyes, Extremely straw hair, Dry skin, loosing saggy face, puffy eyes, Acne, bad breath,
My Treatment:
Chinese wolf berries ( Dried berries) amount 11-12 in the morning cured all my POIS symptoms I'm serious when I say this I have tried many treatments many nootropics none of them help at all
Fenugreek ( methi crushed seed) + Garlic not a cured but it really does help me socialize and get through the day during the severe POIS symptom.
My Fenugreek has all but killed the social anxiety component of POIS I used to suffer from,
This is qoute from Hurray
I had the idea that since oxytocin is heavily involved in the chemistry of orgasms, it might be worth trying to supply my body with the necessary ingredients to produce more oxytocin.
Synthetic oxytocin is difficult to obtain and administer, so I thought I'd give Fenugreek a try, which is praised for its oxytocin-like properties. You can buy it at most heath stores I believe.
I took some of it before and after 2 lots of orgasms, and well ..
Wow!
I had work the next day, which normally would be an excruciating trial socially. Not that day it wasn't. I happily chatted to the boss about some complex issues, and spent a lot of the day chatting and flirting with a couple of my female co-workers .... something that would have been impossible under normal POIS circumstances.
The brain fog had been greatly reduced, while the social anxiety component of POIS had been almost completely eliminated! The following day was more of the same.
I don't want to get too excited too soon, I know drugs and herbs can become less effective as they are used more frequently, and the positive effects might not last forever. Also, maybe I have just had two particularly good days, and it will be back to normal during my next potential POIS episode.
If anybody else is thinking of taking it, it sounds very safe - in fact it is an ingredient in certain foods. Only pregnant women should stay away from Fenugreek. I'll carry on posting here as I continue taking fenugreek, I hope I will continue to have good news!
Alcohol: A few beers before orgasm help relieve a lot of physical symptoms of POIS and brain fog. On unrelated note I have always found out that my pois symptoms were greatly decreased if I have orgasm when I'm extremely drunk.
Interesting article from the BBC on how alcohol can help prevent brain injuries:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8262393.stm
"Experts believe the right dose of alcohol, however, stops the cascade of swelling, inflammation and further destruction of brain cells, known as secondary brain injury."
Interesting that they are considering that alcohol can have anti-inflammatory properties! I should confess that I have noticed that having an orgasm after a few beers does seem to alleviate my subsequent POIS symptoms - has anybody else noticed a link between alcohol and POIS?
I'm not encouraging people to go out and get drunk by the way! Although POIS sometimes feels like its driving me to drink ... :)
On an unrelated note, I have always found that my symptoms from POIS were greatly decreased if I got extremely drunk before orgasm. Now for obvious reasons, this can in no way be regarded as a helpful cure due to all the other negative side-effects of such behaviour.
But it is well known that getting drunk weakens the immune system greatly. Which would fit in perfectly with Dr Waldinger's new evidence - if my immune system is unable to "fight" the semen/pre-ejaculate allergy due to me being drunk, then my POIS symptoms become less severe.
Alcohol exposure stimulates the hypothalamus to produce corticotropin?releasing hormone (CRH). This triggers the pituitary gland to secrete adrenal corticotropic hormone (ACTH), which in turn stimulates the adrenal glands to release glucocorticoids. At high levels, glucocorticoids signal white blood cells to alter cytokine production, suppressing inflammatory and immune responses
Nicotine: Vaping in the morning 15 minutes help cognitive symptoms of POIS 6mg of nicotine e juice
Ginger Root or Ginger Tea
n on and off meds forever and none of them make me feel like how I used to. I have done COUNTLESS hours of research to the point that me and my doctor have agreed that I have become abit of a hypochondriac... I got really into researching the neurotrasmitters and differant parts of the brain and all that shit. But even after knowing that and accepting that I have NEVER felt the same... I have always told myself its just in my head and I am compleatly normal, but deep down I know I dont feel the same... I have become soooo much more sucessfull than I ever have been when I didnt have Anhedonia, but I still feel sad... I have tried therapy which did help abit, I have done Tons of differant meds, Tried wayyyy to many Nootropics, I exersise more than any other 18 year old I know, I have changed soooo many things with my diet which all of them have helped abit but I STILL feel dead inside. Hell I even gave up all videogames, started meditating, and even dropped 40 lbs! I am in the best shape of my life! Currently at 179lbs! But even after alllll of that I still feel differant... But out of EVERYTHING that I have tried there was one thing that helped me a great deal with all of my brainfog, anhedonia, depression, ect... But it doesnt make sense... Its so fucking simple... I have tried it a few times and it helped everytime... I guess I kindof just forgot about it until today... I am being 100% serious when I say this but the thing that helped me was... GINGER ROOT!!! I dont get it! I really dont! Its so fucking simple! The ONLY reasons I can think of is there is something either wrong with my gut or with brain inflamation! Today I was making some tea and as soom as the tea started to take effect I DEFINATLY felt it! I have ate it plain before even and it has really helped! Can someome PLEASE tell me why this might be!!! I have a pinched nerve in my neck to which when I have ginger root it takes the inflamation away from that to!!! I just want to know what I should be trying to fix! I dont want to have to eat ginger the rest of my life in order to feel great! Also: I have tried NSAIDs for inflamation but it did not give the same effects, but I dont know if that could pass the blood brain barrier... or if it would even effect brain inflamation, which is why I also think something could be wrong with my gut... One more thing: I this also helped me with DPDR! Vision feels better, clear head, memory alot better, faster thought process, things feel alot more real 😄.
Cayenne Pepper: Make me high haha
Niacin: Relieved physical symptoms by 95% but doesn't seem to help cognitive
Viagra
Cialis
Cigarettes: The deservely- reviled cigarettes is my best weapon against POIS nicotine is supposed to raise dopamine level.
Dark Chocolate ( cacao 70% ) improve all POIS symptoms
Chewing Gum ( xylitol ) increase ability to focus and improve concentration
Weed, Cannabis, Marijuana, Ganja: Relieve eyes head pressure during POIS and relieved alot of physical symotoms of POIS help me sleep better and aid digestion but if I smoke weed out of pois my short memory is fine but in POIS my short term memory isn't that good
regular intense exercise, Swimming, Steam, Sauna, massage therapy, singing, cuddle, kissing listening to music,Hot shower, cold shower improve all pois symptoms
Diets: Avoid Chinese foods ( Mono-Sodium Gutamate ) , Low carbs, Low histamine diet,
What to eat during POIS: Salmon fish, Lamb meat, Prawns, Eggs, White rice, Cambodia Spinach, carrot, Garlic cloves, Cayenne Pepper, Chicken, Hamburger, Pizza, Tomato, Onion, All kind of berries, Ginseng soup
Certainly protein-heavy meals help reduce my POIS symptoms, it was the first thing I discovered that significantly helped
What to drink during POIS: Water, Coconut water, Ginger Tea, Green Tea, Passion water, Coffee, Red bull, Cocacola, wine, Beer, Pocaria Sweat, Aqurise, Lemon Tea, Honey Tea, Milk,
Sun: Being somehow in the sun helps me,
If you have more questions you can PM me. but One thing that everyone agrees on is this POIS is awful. Sex is normal just like breathing and eating I have. I have POIS since first ejaculation. My name Oudom Horn. I'm 20 years old now I had pois since I was 12 years old. Enjoy life again. And so charismatic!!! not boastful LOL!! 😂

I O yesterdey after 30 days of abstinece , today pain under prostate,That clearly sounds like an immune flare, but I truly think POIS is special with the neuro-symptoms.

That sucks how many O's did you do.The same, that second is a killer. My pois is alsou cumulative.
If i wait that long and only do one O my pois is milder.
Hello everyone,
History
Time to tell my story. I am 25 year old male who has suffered from POIS since I am 15/16 year old (can't remember exactly when it started to happen). Since then, I have always been more fatigued and less motivated in everything I do. Grades started to drop and I needed at least 9 hours of sleep to function normally during a day. Over the years, my social skills started to diminish and I became a lot more insecure. I experienced brain frog and my memory worsened. I sometimes preferred to stay nights at home instead of hanging out with friends. I could never explain why I felt that way. Since I was 19/20 years old I started to feel I was losing my friends due to my insecurity, but in reality this was not the case.
Since I am 22 years old, someone from a project group at Uni told me about NoFap and that you could get "superpowers" from it. Purely out of curiosity, I started to try it out. Around 9 days in and I felt the happiest I've been in around 6 years. I had a smile on my face that lasted the whole day. From that point I thought that I've been a porn addict all this time, since I watched porn a lot. I think I watched porn and masturbated on average maybe 1-2 times per day. Sometimes I masturbated 4-6 times a day. I started practicing nofap, but when I relapsed I would always feel the same symptoms again. I just thought it was because of my excessive masturbation history and porn addiction that I would have these symptoms.
One year later, the nofap went with ups and downs. Granted, the amount of masturbation went down immensely. Sometimes I had a streak of 7 days and sometimes of 100 days. But I had always the same symptoms after I orgasmed. I got a girlfriend for the first time and started having sex for the first time. However, the same symptoms after sex started happening again. I was really confused why this happened. After a few weeks I started googling and found out that it was POIS that caused these symptoms. I was happy and devastated at the same time. Happy, because I found out that it was an actual disease and I was not going crazy. Devastated, because it is something that you cannot easily get rid off.
Another year went by. I was still happy in my relationship, but POIS symptoms were still there. I started reading something about breathing techniques and realized I've been a mouth breather all my life. I thought myself to breath through my nose (both in and out). POIS symptoms reduced drastically since then, from a 5-7 day cycle to a 3-4 day cycle. However, I still need at least 10 days to fully recover since then.
Present
One more year passes by. POIS is still present, but I have noticed that symptoms after sex start to diminish. This happened during the last months of my relationship, which ended half a year ago. I haven't had sex since then so I cannot tell if this is still is the case. All my memories of the past years still seem vague. I can't really remember anything from 17-21 years old. But I feel my memory is slowly getting better. I feel at my best when I haven't been working out for a few days and have been abstaining from orgasm for at at least 10 days. When this is the case, my brain functions really good and my memory/focus is 1000x better. I am still practicing nofap, although I relapse every 30-60 days. Often times this is when I'm drunk. When having a orgasm when drunk, however, symptoms are less intense than when I'm sober. Overall, I feel soooo much better than before doing Nofap, also because I barely watch any porn (1-3 times every 1-2 months) nowadays. I do not dare to think where I would have been now if it weren't for that random guy from my project group who told me about nofap. He might have just saved my life.
Symptoms
My symptoms comprise of fatigue, increased irritability, social distancing (comes in handy nowadays haha), brain fog, depressed feelings, tone in voice becomes worse, increased vulnerability to stress, sense of fight or flight, bad focus, bad memory (especially short-term).
When do symptoms appear
After orgasm. I noticed approx 8 months ago that symptoms after sex started to decrease. I also notice POIS symptoms after working out in the gym, but not as intense after orgasm.

Since I am 22 years old, someone from a project group at Uni told me about NoFap and that you could get "superpowers" from it. Purely out of curiosity, I started to try it out. Around 9 days in and I felt the happiest I've been in around 6 years. I had a smile on my face that lasted the whole day. From that point I thought that I've been a porn addict all this time, since I watched porn a lot. I think I watched porn and masturbated on average maybe 1-2 times per day. Sometimes I masturbated 4-6 times a day. I started practicing nofap, but when I relapsed I would always feel the same symptoms again. I just thought it was because of my excessive masturbation history and porn addiction that I would have these symptoms.
One year later, the nofap went with ups and downs. Granted, the amount of masturbation went down immensely. Sometimes I had a streak of 7 days and sometimes of 100 days. But I had always the same symptoms after I orgasmed. I got a girlfriend for the first time and started having sex for the first time. However, the same symptoms after sex started happening again. I was really confused why this happened. After a few weeks I started googling and found out that it was POIS that caused these symptoms. I was happy and devastated at the same time. Happy, because I found out that it was an actual disease and I was not going crazy. Devastated, because it is something that you cannot easily get rid off.
Another year went by. I was still happy in my relationship, but POIS symptoms were still there. I started reading something about breathing techniques and realized I've been a mouth breather all my life. I thought myself to breath through my nose (both in and out). POIS symptoms reduced drastically since then, from a 5-7 day cycle to a 3-4 day cycle. However, I still need at least 10 days to fully recover since then.
Present
One more year passes by. POIS is still present, but I have noticed that symptoms after sex start to diminish. This happened during the last months of my relationship, which ended half a year ago. I haven't had sex since then so I cannot tell if this is still is the case. All my memories of the past years still seem vague. I can't really remember anything from 17-21 years old. But I feel my memory is slowly getting better. I feel at my best when I haven't been working out for a few days and have been abstaining from orgasm for at at least 10 days. When this is the case, my brain functions really good and my memory/focus is 1000x better. I am still practicing nofap, although I relapse every 30-60 days. Often times this is when I'm drunk. When having a orgasm when drunk, however, symptoms are less intense than when I'm sober. Overall, I feel soooo much better than before doing Nofap, also because I barely watch any porn (1-3 times every 1-2 months) nowadays. I do not dare to think where I would have been now if it weren't for that random guy from my project group who told me about nofap. He might have just saved my life.
Symptoms
My symptoms comprise of fatigue, increased irritability, social distancing (comes in handy nowadays haha), brain fog, depressed feelings, tone in voice becomes worse, increased vulnerability to stress, sense of fight or flight, bad focus, bad memory (especially short-term).
When do symptoms appear
After orgasm. I noticed approx 8 months ago that symptoms after sex started to decrease. I also notice POIS symptoms after working out in the gym, but not as intense after orgasm.
I want to start by saying i cant believe that i actually met people with the same problems that i have i thought i was alone , it sure is helpful to know that the problem has some form of acknowledgment , I hope you all the bestI too was sharp b4 it. Mine are mainly neuromuscularcognitive. Ever had cases of POIS disappearing for while?
It all started right after puberty at age 15 , my symptoms are strictly cognitive , i remember before pois all my teachers used to say that am the smartest kid they've seen , i never actually had to study for my exams and have always been the top of my class , i remember the symptoms started at the first year of what you call high school , i managed to get by a B average , which was very hard for me to achieve during my first experience with pois , i am still very depressed , the most valuable asset i had was my IQ , till now i dont really care if i live or die , i feel that i have nothing to achieve. i have no self esteem .
The symptoms are almost exactly like Cornelius , especially the part about full night sleep would worsen the severity of pois .
I'm currently 23 , i'm afraid to get in a relationship for the obvious reasons, i'm having trouble trying to find a job that suites my condition , am also having problems writing about this in details currently because of pois
