    Hi All,

    Thank you for taking your time to read my post and I hope I will get advice from you. I started nofap on 4th September and it has been around 12 days now into NoFap. So, from day 10, to now, I have experienced a couple of things that I would love assistance on from the community.

    1. I had a wet dream on day 10 - is this a relapse or what does it imply?
    2. Day 10 to now I have been having dry lips, like really dry lips.
    3. Day 12 (today) I woke up and after some time, I have had a really serious headache, like a migraine on the top-left side of my head.

    Please if any of you has any help or input, I would really appreciate it a lot.

    Hi there, congratulations on your journey so far.

    1. Wet dream is not a relapse, there are plenty of threads here about it. It's a natural function of your body and not something you sought out or initiated.
    2. Probably not related, get a chapstick of similar
    3. Without further information it's hard to say, do you have a history of migraine? Again it's probably not related, but if you fixate on it you'll start attributing all sorts of things to your abstinence.

    Good luck

    For 1: Not a relapse at all. For me personally, a relapse is looking at any image that sexually excites me. Whether that is P, or P-Subs (substitutes for p) or even regular TV shows that show too much nudity or that are too suggestive.
    For 2. I had the 'dry lips' already after 2 days of NoFap. Turns out that I was licking my lips and pushing my mouth together as part of a nervous tick due to NoFap.
    For 3. I actually get migraines from PMO, which is a known condition. I've read some posters experience migraines. But it's very unclear whether that's due to NoFap or not. For medical conditions, whenever in doubt, go visit a doctor. If the pain stays longer than 3 days, definitely go to a doctor.

  4. Hey, I experience the same things, but I think only point 1 is connected to nofap.
    I started working early, so I am a little tired which explains the headache, and I so drank a lot of coffee because I am tired, which explains the dry lips.

    Have you had some changes in the last days that could be related to these experiences?

    Hey and welcome.

    As stated above a wet dream is def not a relapse, it’s your body’s way of taking care of what it needs to on it’s own.

    Dry lips could possibly be related to mild dehydration, drink more water. It could also be licking of the lips and something similar so they get chapped.

    A headache could be from nofap. Or the stress and anxiety that comes along with nofap.

  7. about dry lips and headache I had it once in a while but it usually goes away on its own. Drink more water. Somehow after a relapse I get thirstier and hungrier I think it is related to the amount of semen that we throw. Semen is the most valuable asset!
     
  8. Cannot tell you for sure but from my experience when i was 120 days clean i had multiple migraines randomly so yes i would say it is connected to rebooting.
