After doing lots of research I found the supplements from this site 'http://www.actionlove.com/' to be really helpful and they relieved my symptoms specially the lower body pains/weakness. Not a very organized site but I found the some of his POIS explanations logical and understanding. I would suggest that you guys do your own research on this site and do a lot of reading and maybe try out the supplements..
vasopressin is released more before orgasm (?).
Goingcrazy, was that your first period of celibacy? Longest?

1) taking Desmopressin (the synthetic form of Vasopressin), to see if POIS symptoms result. It can be ordered here:
This adrenal fatigue seems very plausible. It kinda touches on everyone symptoms and things noticed about pois. It connects immunity, fatigue, brain fog, sleep ( deep sleep and inability to sleep at night even though tired) It also explains why carbhydrate worsens symptoms and why lots of protein helps symptoms. The adrenal might connect all our symptoms. What do you guys think. After my blood test result come where i tested 13 hormones i think i am going to do adrenal streess index.
I think it is the opposite for most people. Does anyone else have POIS carbo-crave?
Herbs and supplements I've triedZMA: (Zinc, Magnesium, b vitamin): made it worst (no longer take)Ashwaghanda: helped a little at first but later caused difficulty sleeping (no longer take)Rhodiola Rosea: slight increase in energy, but caused difficulty sleeping (no longer take)
Sclover49-- For my personal experiences, I was in college all last year and I would say I got about 12 hours of sleep each night for half of a year. What I didn't do was go to bed before 12. My sleep hours would honestly be from 2 am to about 2 pm, because I took night classes. I honestly feel better sleeping before 12, and waking up as the sun wakes me up. I try not to "sleep in" as I did in college because it didn't help me. But what I did not do in college was combine a lot of sleep with celibacy.-- I think sleeping before 12 pm is the serotonin/dopamine/melatonin <-- I really don't know but--- something with chemicals in your head. In POIS I never get tired. Out of POIS I can actually feel my body getting tired... Maybe a buildup of some kind of chemical depleted after orgasm?-- As for being weaker than my friends... it all depends on who to compare it too. I believe POIS has no affect on your size, but definitely your strength and ability to perform. <-- POIS mental affects. I experience about double the brain fog I normally do after a long workout for some reason. I had that thought in my head too, I think it's more of a depressed POIS thing, thinking I am worse than others around me.-- Even now with sleep I would have to say I wake up about 3-4 times each night, and I also sleep with a fan blowing in my face which helps me fall asleep, but maybe that's not such a good idea for deep sleep.Does anybody experience a bad reaction after viewing porn, not after masturbating.. just viewing porn? Maybe it is a guilt thing.I have quit sexual stimulation "non-orgasmic" sex, masturbation and viewing porn...a complete laissez-faire "hands off" type of personality []
