    I basically don't know what path to take in my life. After doing the Life Purpose Course, i ended up wanting to become a psychologist/psychotherapist, but some stuff changed. I don't feel as much interest towards it as i used to do. 

    I have some ideas, but mostly if i picture myself doing them long term i feel hesistant and end up feeling like it's not it. 

    How do i find out?

    Have you sat down and really thought about what you want to do career wise?

    I did Leo's Life Purpose Course over a year ago and ended up wanting to become a psychologist/psychotherapist. I never really took any action on fulfilling that. Right now i don't really know if that's what i really want to do with my life anymore.

    As for the addictions one like that shouldn't stop you from accomplishing your basic survival and independence needs unless it is crippling you to the point where it is happening all day every day.

    It depends. If i relapse i can literally feel like a mindless zombie for over a week and don't feel any motivation to do anything but feel lazy and sluggish.

    I just ended my temporary job, which was utterly horrifying. I was very happy to get the chance to work here, because i've been trying for 7+ months to find a new job, but it just didn't work out yet again. This place was full of angry employers, constantly arguing with eachother. I had a fuckton of work to do by myself without knowing 100% what to do. I had to work overtime which wasn't payed. The person that was supposed to teach me the ropes was on drugs during work, and she was going to be fired, so i was supposed to take her place, so she wasn't motivated at all and basically teached me everything wrong or half assed ( i think she wanted to sabotage me or take revenge on me). This resulted in me making a lot of mistakes but also being very slow in my job, which made the manager question me. 

    Right now i'm 26 and i'm still living with my overbearing mom. This job gave me a lot of hope and was supposed to lift me out of this shitty position, so i could finally move out and live on my own to have my freedom i desperately need. I can't live at this place anymore, i want my own place. I'm 26 and my mom doesn't seem to understand that i'm not a little child anymore. She keeps pampering me with stuff, and still treats me like her little son. She texts/calls too often, and everytime i tell her about this, she takes it way too serious and get's very mad or uses the excuse that this is how "moms" are. After that she subtile starts pampering me again or starts doing the old stuff again. This repeats itself over and over, and i know this will only stop when i leave this place but i just can't without money.

    Right now I probably have to go on unemployment benefits again (  which i feel very ashamed about), which barely get's me through the month since i pay my own food etc.

    Besides this i have a crippling porn/masturbation addiction, which i've been fighting for years now. Right now is trying to lure me in again after such a horrible day. I'm trying not to give in, since this would totally ruin the last 5% of motivation that's left to change my situation for the better.

    I don't know what to do anymore. I'm out of luck.

    Bc I heard people debating about prostate cancer as a siderisk of no Ejaculation.

    Sure, me too. Doesn't mean they are right. All monks would have prostate cancer.

    do they allow wet dreams?

    Can't really choose whether or not you will get a wet dream. Sure you can sleep on your back etc to lower the chance but it can still happen.

    Do monks practice no ejcaulation

    That's what we assume, because it's one of their precepts. Who knows? No one can tell for sure.

    Hi,

     

    I am currently doing my own little 4 day meditation retreat. I am doing 5 sets of 2 hours of meditation and 1h of break in between.

    Now at day two I need your help. I have a lot of questions and problems disciplining myself.

    My back is hurting a lot and I have to urge to look at the timer to see how much time I still have to meditate.

    I am doing the do nothing meditation, because I am doing it in my routine, but I am all the time thinking about how much time is left so that I can lay down to relax my back. 

    I really want to know what leo meant in his video about do nothing by saying "your mind slows down". But I really dont get it. I am concerned, because I have diagnosed ADHD and I think that my mind maybe does not slow down. I once asked my docter about practicing concentration and she said it doesnt help.

    The pain is going from my back to my head and then i get dizzy and feel like I might vomit if I continue.

    I am getting in a little crisis, because I subscribed to a month long consciousness retreat with peter ralston in october.  I thought about a career in this field, but if I am not able to do this for 2 days ....

    This is my first time doing a retreat like this. It would be awesome to get some help advice or different perspectives from you!

    Greetings from Germany

    How long have you been meditating for?

    @Psyche_92 mmm I do worry, it's not that i truly want to stop ejaculation... I think it's impossible to find that kind of a girl 

    I don't see the problem then.

    Is it possible or not? 

    No. As a human you experience good and bad emotions, that's how it is and that will never change. The thing that can change however, is the attachment and wanting to feel a certain way at all times.

    Yesterday I told a girl that I do not want to ejaculate and waste my sexual energy and she was offended saying : I don't like a man that does not cum, I don't want to become a Guinea pig for you just to practice non ejaculation... She is thinking of leaving me.. 

    Also, she told me that she want sex all day, I would become a whore if it wasn't for my conscience... 

    I was like fuck man why I even told it.... 

     

    Wouldn't worry too much about it tbh. Let her leave you if that's what she wants. If you are on this level and want to practice Karezza, than so be it. Just look for someone who is on the same level and don't let someone who is not into it, hold you back from that.

    Maybe you could introduce her to the book: "Cupids poisoned arrow". But it seems like she's very ignorant, so maybe don't bother at all and move on.

    According to Jordan Peterson who had eye floaters, eye floaters are an auto immune disease. His diet would be a carnivore diet with a lot of meat and greens, which made his eye floaters go away. I also have eye floaters, but i haven't tried it yet. I don't really bother too much about my floaters anyways. But maybe you can try it.

    He talks about it in this video;
