Patricia Garfield, author of the book Creative Dreaming, describes an interesting concept during REM sleep called “Brain orgasm”.
I’ve experienced it.
No POIS!
That's an indicator of Ejaculation's involvement in you POIS.
Nas, I just wanted to clarify that I was not referring above to my “NE’s” (nocturnal emissions), but only to Garfield’s “brain orgasm”, a totally different & rare phenomenon/experience.
In my experience, “brain orgasm” is not very intense, whereas “NE” is often (but not always) a most powerful experience. Even a strong “brain orgasm” is
always for me far less intense than any other form of sexual experience; sex, masturbation, or NE. The conclusion I draw is that a non-ejaculatory ending is the reason for “brain orgasm’s” non-POIS result. I *think* that’s what you concluded as well.
But whether strong or weak, my “NE’s” were *always* followed by very severe POIS, inexplicably more severe than with any other form of sex.
Thankfully, aging stopped my NE’s, concluding the most vile & vicious form of POIS-induction in my life!
