Hello!

[Vadher123]

Hello I'm Mayur, currently living in Leicester, England.

 

I was reading an article about semen retention which led me to this forum. Don't usually participate on forums but something tells me I'm meant to be here and I'll gain a lot of knowledge by being here.

 

I've recently been suffering from anxiety/depression issues not being able to mix in with societal norms, it could also be some kind of personality disorder but hey, I know there's nothing wrong with me. Docs/family/friends have suggested medication which I'm against taking as its not a real cure to my "illness".

 

Anyway I'm happy to be here, look forward to reading all sorts of new info and gaining new knowledge and hope to contribute where I can as well.

Hi Mayur,

 

Yeah, that subject is discussed openly here.  Lots of information and opinions.  I won't tell you what mine are, you'll find out soon enough.

 

You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started.

 

May you enjoy your time here.

Hi Mayur - So nice to have you here.  I'm going through exactly what you're going through too.  Only I'm trying to cut loose of 30 years of taking Prozac for ptsd, decided I've had enough of it and I'm going to cut it loose no matter what and let the real human being emerge.  What a challenge.

 

My thread is in the Personal Practice Forum (something about the Real Human Being, I can't remember the exact name of it).  You're sure welcome to dump any frustrations there as you walk your path.  I sure have been.

 

Enjoy your time here!  You'll love this community.

heya fellow Brit, i'm not a million miles away from you down in Bedfordshire

 

there's nothing wrong with you, especially if it's in relation to being uncomfortable with 'societies norms'! the trick seems to be what to do, how to handle this new-found awareness of ones situation. you're on the right path by looking into this stuff, methinks.

Nice to have you here

I trust that you will learn a lot of important transformative things here in tao bums. Lots of young an old are here with a similar problem but we find we do have a place to belong in the world when we find others who see value in things like taoist teachings semen retention and really just becoming a more whole version of our selves.

 

Welcome!
