    Ok, so 37 days without PMO practically.
    I started nofap to fight against PMO addictions , but now it feels I am fighting against my flatline. :D

    Flatline sucks (withdrawal symptoms) - Huge cravings (for food, alcohol etc) , headaches, anxiety, sleeplessness (insomnia), head spinning, dizziness, nausea etc

    Our brain is like - where the feck I am gonna find my dopamine? lol,
    As if our brain has lost it's mind and trying to figure out different way to get dopamine :D
    Well , Im not gonna relapse so my brain has no other option but to increase the number of dopamine receptor and increase their sensitivities and thats what our goal is to do nofap. :)

    I had this terrible feeling of being sick for the past 1 week, but today it was not that bad, you can say i improved like 1 % , but i dont feel that sick like 2 days ago.

    Morning erections are rock hard, (like i used to have in my teens during my puberty days).

    I see alot of guys complaining about flatline, well all I can say is -
    FLATLINE = HEALING, its your brain re-wiring , and resetting your dopamine receptors . Just have patience and hang in there. :)

    I don't know what the future holds, but let's just see what happens.
    Each day, Each hour, Each minute is a struggle and i wait for the next day but I trust god and all my fellow NoFappers who benefited from NoFap. :)

    Atleast you are having some improvement with withdrawal symptoms. im thinking of going to a rehab for 90 days to break pmo addiction because my withdrawal symptoms are horrible. i feel im going to have heart attack or cardiac arrest becoz my blood pressure is all over the place . Sometimes too low sometimes too high. i dont know what to do

    Hey Im sorry for you condition bro, but the more strong withdrawal symptoms are, that means the more severe the addiction was.
    You have to feel it to heal it.
    We are feeling this pain, these withdrawal symptoms but this is the only way we will heal as well.
    I know its extremely difficult because we have pretty much done this for decades ignorantly and now we see how big of a problem it was, but don't worry bro.
    Do whatever it takes, whether it takes to go to a rehab, counselling etc anything to nofap and abstain from PMO for 90 days and the new dawn of "NEW YOU" is waiting at the end of the tunnel.
    God bless you bro :)

    Is it normal to experience those symptoms during flatline bro? (including brain fog)

    Absolutely ! it's all apart of the reboot process, mind you everybody's reboot can be different but for the most part, the usual symptoms are the same . just stay strong & battle through it... it's your brain rewiring & healing .

    Keep at it with these posts. They're like a mini forecast for me lol. Have you experienced the nausea recently? I think that was an early symptom for me.

    So this is what lies ahead hey, all I can say is.. Bring it on. I'm fed up with this addiction, have given up so many times in the past. That little while of suffering, it has to be worth it.

    Your post really encouraged me even further, all the best to you and good luck!

    Yeah I am experiencing nausea and night sweats, but bro i read somewhere that these symptoms can be reduced by increasing salt intake,
    i just took some extra salt and my symptoms improved dramatically, you should also try some :)

    Yeah bro, even I got fed up by this habit and all i wanted to say is fuck it and im done with this shit, so I decided nofap.
    I hit the rockbottom so I decided to do it, and I guess you have also hit the rockbottom in life, begin nofap bro and dont ever look back no matter how hard the journey will be :)
    Because the end result of journey is the biggest gift that only GOD can give you , that is , your MANLIHOOD.
    Best of luck bro, god bless you :)

    Nice to see the warriors with a strong motivation! i'm here to say it only gets better...i hit a wall at certain moment thinking to myself if this is it then it's not so great as i thought...(as a matter of fact that was kinda a flatline to me). But right now i'm soaring high on energy my natural behavior changed even without realizing (i'm listening to music all the time now - happy, encouraging music; which reflects the state of mind im in right now). I have energy to do several things and to defy me to push forward...i see girls finally in a healthy (and better way as im getting much more love nowadays) way

    Hey bro, are you getting erection by looking at women on roads or just random erections when you are at a public place?

    nothing nasty like that, i simply get to see woman as a human being now, and they notice this which most of the time ends with a happy ending for both of us (that being sex or simply a woman respecting you for the man you are)

    Are you sure that if it comes to sex, you're going to get hard?
    Because i read in few succes stories that guys get erection just by smelling and seeing woman :\

  19. It is important to spread this positive message about the flatline. I would also add that after the first few days of intense sexual urges, it is a relief when your penis shrivels up and your sex drive disappears. Other challenges take the place of insane sexual urges, but it is a welcome break from that IMO.
