    Hello there,

    I decided to finally quit my PMO life. I tried some times before but I've never been more decided than this time. The last time I saw porn was 2 weeks ago and the last time I fapped was 1 week ago. Right now I feel better in some things, like I'm playing guitar better than ever... but at the same time I am having a terrible "flatline" and I feel so insecure about myself. Today I was at a party having fun with a lot of people and suddenly two girls started to give me lots of wine... then they started to flirt on me and I felt so insecure about my flatline that I scaped from the party because I felt scare about having something with them... I feel this is going to last forever, I feel I will never be able to have sex again... I just feel bad about my situation. I feel sad. Has anyone of you out there has gone thru something like this'??? I need some words, some advice.

    . G .

    I'm surprised you've already flatlined. I'm on day 73 or something and I have yet to flatline, which is something I'm looking forward to because these urges can be intense.

    This is going to sound very nooby, but what is a flatline?

    From elsewhere on this site: "It is not unusual for guys with porn-induced sexual performance problems to hit a “flatline” (zero libido, lifeless genitals) shortly after they quit masturbating to porn. It passes, but can take weeks before healthy libido returns". http://www.nofap.org/men/

    Birdmx flat line is temporary I assure you it takes a lot of time in some cases but flat line is a very temporary small phase in your life if you beat this addiction once and for all.
    I went 70 to 80 days, finally got out of flat line, got my erections morning wood libido back but I underestimated and stopped taking this addiction seriously and I'm back in flat liNe. Look at my counter. Go ahead. Laugh at me. Shame and fear are the ultimate motivators.

    No reason for shame brother. A 70 day streak is awesome...be methodical in your analysis of what when wrong and you can use this temporary fall to your advantage.

    Honestly I don't think I would have made it if it wasn't for the flatline. Yea its different not thinking about sex but thats really what the reboot is all about. It's about finding other things in your life other than PMO. I have gravitated to the gym like many other fapstronauts. It gets you motivated & you'll be tired at night so you'll end up sleeping quickly instead of sitting in bed & thinking of PMO.

    Bird you are at a good point in the reboot. Don't give up. I can remember a few weeks back when I had 14 days. I am so much better off now & I am not even done. Stay strong
