    Hello fapstronauts

    I am on day 62 but for the past 10 days I feel immense anxiety and my brain is like hyper active. I am not able to concentrate on anything for long duration. Also I get overwhelmed by the unreal scenarios my mind indulges itself into.
    To give you a context of my situation: Like a monkey going from one branch to another and doing this endlessly without reaching anywhere.
    Yesterday I was very close to relapse because of this anxiety. Need help
    Thanks

    I know how you feel. On one of my long streaks I felt intense anxiety too. Maybe you should meditate more often or start meditating if you haven't started it yet. Just know that this will go away. before you started NoFap you probably were PMOing to relieve youself from anxiety and now since you don't have that outlet the anxiety that you used to relieve by pmoing is all coming back all at once. Just keep going and stay strong!

    Addiction is always the manifestation of a bigger problem or the inability/refusal to deal with problems like anxiety. Way to go on 62 days btw! I was never raised in the spiritual stuff. But I tried meditation and it really helped me. I also try to think of ways to better myself every day. Although it is very difficult, your state of mind is always up to you. Keep at it!
