    Hi
    Im flatlining for a while and ive seen that some people have the flatline for a year or so, and I dont really wanna risk having that. The only thing I notice is that I cant have a full errection. I wanted to ask if I should go to the doctor, maybe he could help? Or should I just take Vyagra when i wanna get it on with a girl?

    Thanks and have a nice day

    Its not like I cant get aroused. When I think about having sex it makes me feel aroused, its just my Dick that doesnt really get hard

    I didnt relapse. But im still kinda confused about this whole nofap thing. I like that my confidence got up and im not dealing with depression as much as I used to. But im not sure if what I am expecting is flatline. Because in Flatline you should feel down and cloudy and such things, the only thing I notice is my not working dick. I didnt get a full erection in a while. While watching Porn it always got rockhard. I think it might not be flatline but just my dick not working?
    Another thing: When I get it on with a girl after not fapping for such a long time, I will last for like 20 seconds I think. And that would not be very good.
    I probably would stop it now but the mental benefits are very good and I dont want to loose them, but also I dont want to be a 0 when ill have sex. Its prettyconfusing, I dont really know what to do.

    Where are you in your process? How long have you been in your current cycle? If the videos on YouTube have any merit, flatline doesn’t appear, supposedly, until about two-three weeks out. To the actual flatline concerns: I would welcome it, embrace it, and use the time as an opportunity to fully develop your life. Any girl is going to see that you are having an awesome time and will eventually chase and seek you out for that reason. :D

    I wonder if guys who flatline for over a year got that way because they suppressed their sexuality. If you think about the buddhist monk who has no trouble staying away from sex because he doesn't even entertain those thoughts. Is he in a porn-withdrawal flatline? No, he has no libido because he gives no power to his sexual fantasies.

    Now think your brain can't tell the difference between porn and sex. Your brain on porn thinks its having sex or about to get it. So when you fight your porn cravings you are just fighting your libido. And you have to stop all sexual desire at the beginning to even get anywhere. Eventually your brain gives it up, but then your libido is gone entirely and you struggle to get an erection.

    Your brain should be done rebalancing itself around 50-60 days in. That's when the flatline ends. And at this point the aim to go for normal sexual behaviour.

    I'm like 64 days in now, and holding strong, but seriously feel like I might be playing with my sexual energy too much. I can see how its a balance, but my sexual cravings are going through the roof. I dont want to lose them.
