    Hi every1, I am currently on day 19 and I have seen the benefits of NoFap I feel like I have not been this strong in a while, however I am getting all the attention from females left right centre but I do not get sexually aroused like before, I do not get random boners either. It is very upsetting because I had a chance with one the sexiest ladies at the club the other night and I could not stay hard. I feel like my manly hood is drifting away and I do not understand why I am in my early twenties and this is happening to me. I done a bit of research and i heard what I am going through is called flatline, I want to know how long it takes for this to be over. I just want my manlyhood back i do not even see my self watching porn again.

    Believe it or not, this is a good sign! If you don't believe me (just a random stranger on the internet), believe the porn addiction researchers who made this article: HELP! I quit porn, but my potency, genital size, and/or libido are decreasing (the Flatline) . The rest of that website is a great resource too.

    The flatline is a sign that you do in fact have a strong porn dependency. Guys who go without porn or sex get hornier over time if they aren't addicted; those with sex/porn addictions experience the flatline, which is a result of neural pathways held up only by sex/porn abuse falling apart. The flatline is a sign that negative connections in your brain are collapsing; if you go back to porn they will remain, but wait long enough, and they will die and be replaced with pathways wired to positive sexual interactions that you engage in.

    While in the flatline, it is very important to avoid any direct genital stimulation. Any stimulation, even grinding with a partner, will either "refresh" the neurons we want to die, or elicit no arousal at all, which is very confusing and stressful. Instead, understand that sexual stimulation is not healthy for you right now, no matter how hot that girl at the club is. When I was going through my first reboot with my girlfriend, I wanted to fuck her all the time, even during the flatline. However, we knew if we forced sex, it would be bad for me, and we didn't have sex until the end of the reboot; it's so worth it in the end to feel full sexual satisfaction and function after a proper reboot. While direct stimulation is not good during a reboot, especially the flatline, kissing, cuddling, and sleeping with a partner has been found to be very beneficial for healing during reboots. Going down on a partner is also a great idea, but the favor cannot be returned until after your reboot. If you'd like some more specific articles form YBOP let me know.

    To answer your title, you have lost your mojo, but it is very easy to get it back. Use the tools and knowledge in that article I linked to help get it back

    Let me know if you have other questions!

  4. Thanks for reminding me, because yesterday I was stimulating myself and getting some erection, I was happy, but I started to think something was wrong because I was just at the day 24.
