Hi everyone, I'm new here.
I don't have a diagnosis yet (still in the process) but doctors think it's likely POIS. And I believe that too.
For me it all lasts 168 hours i.e. 7 days. Since puberty. But I believe I survived school because as far as I can remember I often managed to keep it at one relapse on friday evenings. There were exceptions of course and I remember a few times where I could barely walk home from the bus stop to my home.
Now I'm a bit anxious and hopeless about my future. Especially employment wise. I had a summer job once but it didn't work out as I relapsed and POIS came in the way.
I'm wondering if I ever can find a job and especially keep it beyond 2,3, 4 weeks.
I went 200 days without any orgasm or edging. I had hit rock bottom and I treated it like my last chance at life. I became confident. Wet dreams did set me back but not nearly as bad as actually masturbating. I relapsed, because of the huge frustration at myself and my situation even more horribly than I ever did.
Now today a few years on, I've discovered a magnesium b- complex supplement and vitamin d. This sometimes seems to help me with fatigue. Meaning I can do the workout that I only could do after 5 days now often on the first and if not the on the 2nd post-orgasm.
But social anxiety, muscle twitching, hand tremors and voice loss keep me at home for a week.
