Im on Day 17.. K9 Protector failed and I ending up seeing a nude pic. About 5 sec later my head started hurting like crazy, naturally I had urges, but I don't understand why my head started hurting like that. Was it dopamine? Someone please explain why. I ended up refreshing the PC and reinstalling K9.
Though I don't know why your head hurts, I know that dopamine has nothing to do with it. Dopamine is a neuoro-transmitter that's released in the brain when you are about to have an orgasm and has more to do with what drives us to have motivation, pleasure, and changes in our mood. I don't think k9 can "fail" on you, you probably just need to change the settings such as blocking views from not only porn, but images of nudity or even swimsuit apparels like bikinis. As for your headache just turn off the laptop and stay away from it, take some Tylenol if you need it, or get some fresh air and distract yourself. You were probably over thinking the whole thing way too hard. Just relax man.
I recall the first time I was exposed to pornography at grade 4, I immediately got a headache and felt like vomiting. Maybe your brain finally recollected itself but after seeing that nude pic, it just broke out again... I don't really know the science behind it. Maybe Namekian's right, you might just be overthinking it.
Yea I'm probably over thinking it, I've been doing that alot lately but probably my daily meditations will help with that. Thanks for the replies
Keep it up! It's great you're starting nofap young, i.e. before graduating high school. You'll discover potential that you didn't know you have when you spend your time away from pr0ns and recollect yourself.
