In spite of being born with fragile constitution, people these days are too lascivious and end up dying young. It is diabolical. I would proffer to physicians that if people who are sickly suppress their sexual desires for six months, or a year or two, they will recuperate without need of any special treatment. Most young men are weak-willed. It is woeful that they lack willpower to control their carnal urges for the sake of their well-being.
I abstained from having sex for seven years, I didn't fall ill, and I'm still very much alive. I have never really needed medicine before; although there were times when I felt under the weather, I was able to power through.
