    Severe anxiety, derelization, shaking, bad sleep huge mood swings. I overdosed with a marijuana edible early February and ive been having horrible symptoms since, even though the nurse told me i would be ok after a week. Since this happened i am 53 days into NoFap and have experinced a flatline twice and then i get urges to masturbate. Currently im super anxious and get ideas that im not in control of my own actions and get mild headaches in the middle of my brain. Idk what to do or what could be the cause.. help? Some symptoms have left me and im relieved about that such asdepression, ocd and constant shaking have been pmo since i was 9 currently 21

    That sounds very hard, Ibanezbnd. Many of the things you describe sound like they could be withdrawal symptoms from abstaining from PMO. I'm familiar with having episodes of severe anxiety too, as well as mood swings and bad sleep. But if you're unsure I would recommend you to talk to your nurse/doctor again, to rule out any other causes. I wish you the best, stay strong!

    The nurse that told me that was from the er when i overdosed but im starting to questionwhether it is a good idea to abstain from pmo now since i may have triggered anxiety from the od. I went to the doctor and she said my blood tests looked good so idk anymore i do have strong cravings to masturbate

    It is always a good idea to abstain from PMO, telling yourself that right now might not be the best time is your addiction speaking, making up excuses to masturbate again. Try and think what masturbation will solve. It will relief stress for a short period, but after you're finished, how will you feel? Probably the stress will return, and stronger - and you have a new problem to stress about: the guilt you will feel towards yourself for relapsing... I would urge you to try and stay strong, the cravings WILL lessen over time. You can do it!
