After two weeks
Hi Dr Richards,
I've been trying to go without masterbating for the past few months as I suffer from big time sexual exhaustion. (I've been taking the supplements) but everytime I get to week two I start to get a numbness in my feet, like they're cold but to touch my feet they don't feel cold. I think it's nerves because when my girlfriend rubs my feet I get a tingling in my penis and if she continues rubbing my feet it feels like I'm going to ejactulate without erection. My lower back gives me the same cold, numb, burning feeling and same thing... when she rubs it I feel like I'm going to ejaculate, but with no arousal or erection. Are my nevers all wacky from not getting dopamine fix or are they so use to the chemicals masterbating provides that the nevers are all sensitive? I've never gone past two weeks because I've always ended up ejaculating to releive the symtoms in my feet and sometimes lumbar back. It's like a built up burning pressure. My legs get heavy sometime too.
Any thoughts?
thanks,

An oversensitivity of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves due to stress and inflammatory hormones fluctations, along with the negative neuroplasticity developed are the most probable reasons. The slight rise of androgen hormones while still experiencing high levels of excitatory and inflammatory prostaglandin E2 in the local nerves and tissues contribute to the condition.
Masturbation return you to status quo with elevation of prolactin levels and support the negative neuroplasticity that your organism used as an operating mode for years.
okay, so...
...does that mean I should just try and tough it out and eventually it will go away?
Giving in to masterbation to relieve it just puts be back to square one, so no matter how much that will help me temporary, it's the wrong thing to do, right?
It's almost like my nervous system wants me to ejaculate so it can get a fix. Any idea how long this could last?
It's not as bad in the morning, gets worse as the day progressives. Could too much choline be causing this? I take B complex during the day, along with citicoline.. then my Gaba, 5htp formula at night which seems to settle it down a bit. Is there anything else I can do to ease the symtoms? Hopefully this doesn't go on for too long. It's hard not to stress out when you've got the "shakes" to ejaculate.
This sucks.
Acupuncture
I was thinking of trying acupuncture to calm my nervous system. Do you have an opinion on this? I tried this a long time ago and it made me VERY relaxed, although it also gave me a the shakes/chills at night in bed.
One last thing... I've always
One last thing... I've always have suffered from really bad anxiety which is why I think I started masterbating in the first place. I also have a few phobias, such as urinating in public. I guess these things don't make it any easier for me to relax and let my system heal. I have knots in my stomach from stressing over this.

You should try to abstain for the first months of the negative neuroplasticity rewriting. However, if the urge is too strong you may ejaculate, this will slow the process down but it is unlikely to put you on square zero.
Any idea how long this could last?
Average I would say 1 to 2 months. However, you seem to suffer from anxiety even before starting masturbation, which is an indication that your individual gene expressions are not favourable for a quick recovery.
Is there anything else I can do to ease the symtoms?
You may try the new GRB6-GABA, as well as Multi-A, and B-Amino (to be replaced with A-Amino after a month) for even greater synergestic effect with the old supplements.
Could too much choline be causing this?
Highly unlikely.

Yes, if performed by well trained specialist it may prove to be highly beneficial.

Actually it is disturbing that you suffered from anxiety even before engaging in over-active sexual activities (which surely worsened the condition) but is an indication of individual gene expressions that need to be dealt with properly for satisfactory results.
