if you stop masturbation at once, lets say you go cold turkey . you decide you will not masturbate ever again, is it a good idea ? let me answer it .
first of all let me make it clear to you that your balls are not going to explode if you do not masturbate. instead you are going to become a super human. I myself was a hardcore masturbator for a decade , and its now been over a year since i last masturbated. now let me tell you what will happen to you if you stop it completely .
the first thing you will experience is that after a couple of days , you will have some of the hardest urges to masturbate , but these urges usually go away when you don’t feed the thoughts of masturbating, after this phase comes what i call it The Nuclear phase , in this you experience the bursts of energy , you feel full of energy , and after around 10 days , you start to have a improved focus and you could see things clearly, and also you don’t get agitated or annoyed by small things, but the thing is you don’t really notice these changes , its only when you compare the before and after you see the clear difference.
after around week 3 to week 4 you will start to feel frustrated and the energy you boost you had earlier is not there any more , this phase is called “Flatline”. it usually happens to the one’s who were masturbating on regular basis for a long time and this phase is hard for those who were masturbating to porn . now you may be wondering why this happens .
you see , your brain was addicted to the regular surges in the dopamine doses ( dopamine is a hormone that acts on areas of the brain to give you feelings of pleasure, satisfaction), when you suddenly stopped masturbating, your brain stopped to get these huge dopamine surges, which leads to the flatline , in other words we could say that these are the withdrawal symptoms , so it usually lasts around a month depending on how frequently you used to masturbate. and it is easier in that stage not to masturbate , because you will have very few urges to do so.
once you pass this flatline period, you are now back to normal. the sexual intercourse with your partner will feel more pleasurable and fulfilling, due to frequent masturbation you had somewhat altered the natural sensitivity of your penis and after abstaining from it for a decent amount of time it will regain its sensitivity. further more you will be full of energy and drive to do things , and the good part is that you will not feel the urge to masturbate no matter for how long you will abstain, instead you will crave to have an intercourse with a real partner , and that’s the good thing, because it is the natural way.
