Excessive talk is also draining.
Aum Namasivaya
Namaste EM,
I remember reading something in Padma Purana sometime back that I wish to bring here. And what I write has connection with the message in ZN's signature line 'what causes fall also can uplift'. Padma Purana passage lists certain items that impart strength. Prominent one was the breast of a young female. (I hope, people do not take it prudishly) but how true -- both as a source of eternal food-nourishnment and as the cause of arousal of fervour.
I agree entirely with your 'it does have to do with transmutation of sexual energy into kundalini rising up sushumna' and 'True, there is only one energy, but it comes in many forms'. To generalise a bit more: The externalised mind flitting from objects of desire to objects of desire, is a drain.
It is said that when the mind is absolutely devoid of desire, it is Brahman. In sleep it happens unconsciously.
Om Namah Shivaya
That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
