Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

Hello everyone! Although I’ve posted before and got some wonderful feedback, I’m usually just a lurker here on the forums. I am trying to change that habit now.:) My lovely girlfriend and I have been experimenting with chastity off and on for about a year. So far, it has been an excellent experience that brought us closer together than I ever thought possible. It took me a while to learn how to stop top from the bottom, but thanks to her patience and lots of research, we finally fixed that issue. Thank God. After a year of play with a CB6000, we decided that we both enjoy chastity and wanted to take it to the next level. We ordered a Jailbird device from Mature Metal. It is hands down the best device I’ve worn and is quite comfortable. My KH decided she likes the idea of erection control in addition to denial, so we ended up going with a super short 1 1/2” tube. The device does its job exceptionally well, making erections impossible. Thank you again, Mature Metal. After a short break-in period, she has decided on making this a 24/7 lifestyle with an initial trial run of 1 year. I will wear the device non-stop except when she wants me out for her pleasure, teasing, and shaving. She also informed me that she likes the idea of the 3-month break-in period, so I should not expect a release until at least the 3-month mark. As a truck driver, I am gone from home for long periods, which hopefully will make time pass quicker. I am currently 10 days without orgasm, and this has been one of the greatest weeks of my life. I’m glad to have such an amazing girlfriend/partner/keyholder. Question for the dominant: If you have tried it, do you think the 3-month break-in period is effective? Why or why not? Question for the submissive: What are some of the emotions you go through during long periods of denial? Sorry for the long post; I am just really excited about this journey and felt like I had to share it with someone, or I might explode.
