Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

Hello everyone. I joined CM 3 years ago, I was very active during my first year at CM, learned a lot and got to practice chastity reaching periods of 30-40 days in chastity, and I made that on my own and without a chastity device (mainly using tucking as a way to “lock” things away). One of the things that caught my attention the most was the mood stabilization experience connected to chastity. The last couple of years have been a roller coaster for me, I don’t want to bore you with the details. So let’s get to the point: I’m considering to get started with chastity again, and there is one main reason for that: “mood stabilization”. I have no mistress/keyholder and I’m not specifically looking for someone. I believe she will appear when the time is right. I’m open for online coaching/guidance if someone is interested (feel free to send me a PM) What I want to focus on is: practicing chastity with the goal of mood stabilization in mind. I’ve been reading a lot about brain chemistry, male orgasms, etc. So I understand the “science” behind of it. So, I thought I post some questions here related to mood stability. Feel free to answer all of them or only some of them or just tell your story in one piece sharing your experience. Please remember, I’m mostly interested in “mood stabilization”. All other kinky details are more than welcome (I live kinky stories) but I’m looking for mood stabilization ingredients in your experience. Thanks! So here we go: 1 – What is your experience with mood stabilization as a consequence of chastity? How was your mood before you got started with chastity and how is it now? 2 – If your mood is more stable now, how would you describe it? Happier? More submissive, more focused, more obedient, more disciplined, more assertive? 3 – How long after being in chastity did you start feeling the difference in mood? 4 – Do you start feeling the difference after several days? Or do you start feeling the difference after several periods of chastity? 5 - What do you do in order to avoid the “letdown” after an orgasm? Milking? Ruined orgasms? Something else? 6 – When you get really horny, how do you manage to cool down again, without it affecting your mood? 7 – How do you get sexual satisfaction during the time in chastity without de-stabilizing your mood? 8 – I’ve been also reading literature from a spiritual point of view (like yoga, tantra, etc). Many spiritual movements along centuries used chastity to “redirect” sexual energy to other aspects of life. Any experience with that? How did you managed to redirect that energy? What did you used it for? Well… that’s it. Can’t wait for your reactions! Thanks, Katy
