    So how exactly do you get over the needs and urges regarding M-bation? Also is it physiologically safe not ejaculating for such a long time?

    Urges are difficult to overcome but generally an urge will come on very quickly but then pass almost as quickly as it came on - it's just about riding the uncomfortable 5-10 minutes whilst it passes. If you don't have robust coping strategies for dealing with the urge then you will succumb. Do anything that will distract you for long enough to get over the urge - something physical that can get you out of your house is a good idea. Early on I used to spend a lot of time away from home because I knew that if I was at home I would be more prone to temptation.

    In terms of physiological safety - there almost certainly won't be any problems with a short period of abstinence, although if you have prostatitis then this can sometimes flare up. Generally though, your body is more than capable of taking care of itself. Physiologically, sperm that don't get ejaculated get reabsorbed by the body (think of guys that have had vasectomies) and seminal fluid is produced as and when it is needed - much like saliva. You will either have wet dreams or you may get some semen leakage in the urine if your body needs to remove semen.

    Urges will come but i think the majorly important thing is to not feed them in any way. They usually gradually go away but if you try to sooth them with say "soft content" it will make it way worse trust me. And i really dont think that not ejaculating is harmfull in any way. infact if heard that our bodies reabsorbs the semen and utilizes it but dont quote me on that. By any means dont let that be a reason for you to relapse. Stay strong bro, best wishes.
