Hi,

This site is by far the most helpful site on the web. I have had almost all of the symptoms of over masturbation and I have been doing research for almost a year. My main problem is sleep, I just can’t sleep, these stress hormones are literally destroying my body. One of the main reasons I continue to not get sleep is because of wet dreams. I feel I have this problem…

“Abrasion of the prostate ejaculation ducts and neuromuscular endings results in instant ejaculation urgency upon erection and immediate ejaculation upon stimulation via vision, hearing, touching or vaginal penetration when the serotonin is extremely low. It also inflates the prostate size and weakens the prostate’s seminal emission and urinary control.”
So the little bit aroused I get during sleep makes me get a wet dream, and therefore in the morning I feel horrible. I dont know what to do.

I am currently begining to take HTP for serotonin, GABA for inhibitory effects, Nitric Oxide for dilation, fish oil for prostaglandin 3, DHEA for androgen hormones, Saw Palmetto for seminal leakage, mucuna pruriens for L-dopa or dopamine, and a solgar mutli-vitamin.

I cannot get out of this cycle, if only I could sleep I would heal. I have tried melatonin, valerian, and other sleep aids and they do not do anything.

Please give me your advice! Thank you.

ANSWER
Jon, you have to break the ill cycle of excessive inflammatory and stress hormonal release. You are on the right track there. The exhausted modulation on the dopamine-norepinephrine-epinephrine, along with chronically excessive norepinephrine, cortisol, and prostaglandin E2 will only lead to increased inflammatory and stress hormonal release so the cycle will support itself.

And yes, you must sleep for rejuvenation. It’s no wonder that melatonin did nothing – you have your CNS exhausted and it would be of no use. You have to jump start its proper functions. The wet dram part is just a sympathetic firing messed signals (“flight of fight”) while you are experiencing weak nocturnal erection. The result is an ejaculation to burden your already exhausted system.

Be careful when taking DHEA for androgen hormones. You may end up with your organism producing even lower levels of DHEA upon discontinuation. You should check your testosterone levels to know for sure if you have your hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis locked completely. If you do (lower than 300dl/ng) I assure you that taking androgen hormones from other sources won’t benefit you in a long run and it may completely ruin proper endocrine functioning.

Also remember that it is very important not to masturbate for many months. If you do it even once in the next 2 months you risk of having your old neuroplasticity back again.
