Hello all.
Please help.
I am trying to recover from severe over-masturbation. I used to do it so frequently that I believe that I caused myself an auto-immune disease (Alopecia Areata), in which my white blood cells attack my hair follicles. I learned this from Dr. Lin at www.actionlove.com.
(Actionlove.com is a website by a Chinese medical doctor who blends modern medicine with ancient Chinese medicine, and deals with sexual problems and healing from masturbation.)
He also hold me that my epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine are too high, which is what’s causing my alopecia areata. (And they are high because of severe over-masturbation.) I know that celibacy can, over the long term, grant its practitioners almost super-human abilities. Look at what the Tibetan monks can perform, such as starting fires by directing chi energy from their hands! I also noticed that these Tibetan monks seemingly always have full heads of hair.
My big question is: Can celibacy help cure auto-immune diseases, such as alopecia areata? Will celibacy eventually correct all of the physical problems that I caused myself by over-masturbating?
Another question I have is, do some of you use soy products to reduce sex drive? Is fermented or non-fermented soy products better? What about natto?
Thanks and please respond!

There are several different
There are several different hypotheses as to what causes alopecia areata. Genetic factors seem to play an important role since there is a higher frequency of a family history of alopecia areata in people who are affected. Alopecia areata appears to also have an autoimmune factor causing the patient to develop antibodies to different hair follicle structures. Certain chemicals that are a part of the immune system called cytokines may play a role in alopecia areata by inhibiting hair follicle growth. Some studies show that emotional stress may also cause alopecia areata.
Hair loss occurs because the hair follicles in a discreet area all enter the telogen or late catagen stage of hair growth. In the catagen stage the hair follicle stops growing and in the telogen stage it falls out. Normally hairs are going through these stages at random and the growing hairs on the rest of the head outnumber the hairs that fall out. In alopecia areata, something causes all the hairs in a certain area to enter the telogen or catagen stage at the same time.

Don't hold it against yourself
While physical ailments do have physical causes, the root of most illness is guilt. Love sex and be thankful for our ability to pleasure ourselves. Maintaining the attitude that something you have done has made you unhealthy can prevent you from seeing all the wonderful ways you are healthy and can be healthier every day.
Great resource and Yes celibate efforts allow the body to heal
Great site you referenced, I have read some of it before and it is very convincing, especially since there are so many case examples and science based explainations. I myself am 100% convinced that I stunted my physical development due to 'over-ejaculation' and delayed my emotional and psychological development as well between the ages of 15 when I started and through until I was 20 when I began decreasing my sexual 'activities', primarily masturbation. I now am able to go for as much as a month before I get a wet dream. I know that I am a shadow of who I could have been but I am so much healthier and smarter due to my efforts. I now know why I was chronically depressed and never lived-up to my full potential. I find it funny how my whole life I was mislead by the Western medical system that tells you that you can do as much sex as you like. In my opinion, and I don't say this lightly, most health problems begin and are prevented from healing from this process of sexual loss. This is what prevents your body and mind from healing, but you can almost fully heal if you catch it before the age of at least 30-35 in my opinion. Mineral, vitamin, proper foods, exercise and a positive thought-process facilitate this very much. Advanced biology states that it takes sperm up to 2 months to fully mature which means that men are meant to be even more continent than women since they have a monthly cycle. Men are weak and feeble-minded today directly due to this self-induced (often times) 'bleeding' of the reproductive forces.
Dan, yes you can heal, I have healed, my skin has no more problems and my relationships are also improved due to the past 4 years of 1 ejaculation per month. Ejaculation is something that was meant to be limited by the male body, not done for sport in a chronic fashion, many people have been brainwashed to think it is normal when it is the major sources of problems on all levels in their lives.

Well said Vincent
Vincent,
Thank you for the lovely comments and your honesty. I, too, have severely stunted my growth--both mental and physical due to acute excessive masturbation. Only now through diligent retention efforts have I begun to properly heal.
One tangible example of this that most readers can empathize with is that my penis and testicles are tiny in proportion to my body. I didn't start out that way, just before and during puberty, I was as large as all of the rest of my curious neighborhood friends. But after constant masturbation, when it came time for those proverbial additional growth spurts, I never got them. (I am willing to post some photos, if appropriate or wanted by any readers of this forum.)
To this day, I have a propensity to masturbate even when I have a loving and willing wife at home. To help me, she assists me in the wearing of a locking chastity device on my penis which makes it more difficult (but not impossible) to masturbate. Right now we are up to a full month of retention and we are working our way up to two months. The eventual goal is to attain a yearly ejaculation schedule. Granted, this may seem to others as hard core and extreme, but this chastity therapy really is in proportion to the damage done by a lifetime of excessive ejaculaton.
I would appreciate hearing more from you, or other guests to this excellent forum.

Completly AGree
Vincent i complelty completly agree what u said.
Nature Path
Go to a really good nature path and tell them your problem. They will find a remedy that will help you.
One remedy that cured me from sexual obsession is AMBRA. Look it up on the internet... it's amazing. Go to a nature path who can actually test to see if Ambra is right for you.
Try an experiment
Star recording how often you sneeze. After you ejaculate, this includes both men and women, write down for about a month with your normal frequency of activity. Then stop having sex for 3 weeks and begin recording how often you sneeze or how much allergy symptoms you have after about the the 3 week of abstaining. Chances are that you will see a dramatic reduction including during the spring and summer months. In fact, for me anyways, I had pretty bad allergies between the ages of 17- 21 but also did not consider that my frequent sex may have been the culprit, weakening my immunity. Ever since I have been practicing abstinence I have had no allergies aside from the odd single sneeze during the most crazy pollen times in the summer when I'm outside and such.
If this self-experiment works (considering you follow strict abstinence) then this is proof that it is influencing you immunity in a more obvious way that can be recorded.
If you want to learn about why this may be so, read about Dr Antoine Bechamp to learn about the internal bio-terrain of the human body and how this influences health and the manifestation of disease organisms and immunity.
