  1. What's up guys!

    So I have seen only 1 other post on this topic as we know at this point our addiction to porn is the equivalent to other drug addictions.
    With these additions we can and will experience many withdrawal symptoms that can leave use mental and physically in paint.
    The up side to all this is basically the withdrawal symptoms are early stages of your body and mind repairing itself that doesn't mean its gonna be a fun turn over events.
    Let's list out a few of our own symptoms no matter how strange they are and help each other handle them positively.

    I relate to all the aforementioned withdrawal symptoms.

    Since I started PMO (15 years of addiction, now on day 9) I now have the strong desire to smoke cigarettes, e-cigarettes and drink alcohol (beer). When I don't do sports I always drink in the evenings to calm me down and I use the e-cigarette for hours to battle my nervousness.

    Has anyone of you experienced something similar ? How did you overcome the urge to switch from one addiction to another?

    Wow. I'm so thankful I have found this forum.
    I flatline when I reach 5-7 days.
    Depressed, no motivation, lazy, angry, nothing feels fun, everyone feels annoying, any drive I had to do nofap my mind fights against. I will cry when i am alone for no reason.
    If I resist? I will definitely get a wet dream even when I never fantasize. Then the following day, I feel like I have a block in my head and I become even more furious for resisting so hard against something I can't control that leaves me feeling like i relapsed.
    so i say screw nofap,
    but then i regret my relapse, but.... then my mind and emotions feels normal again.. thats why it feels like i cant surpass these withdrawals.

    i cant focus studying or in class because flatlines make me so emotional.

    The only weird physical symptoms I haven’t expected (for a week or so now) is an itchy forearm, feels like ants are crawling on me. Wakes me up at night sometimes, hot itching...

  12. ok so basiclly whats happening is your brain is going through a regular rewireing pattern. when we use PORN our dopamine receptors are going crazy..when we finish the brain tends to go into rewiring . so your emotions and feelings are all over the place this is a VERY tought time where most people tend to relapse BUT its completly norml it takes time for your brain to get back to normal. its actually a good thing. give yourself time relax and FEEL all emotions but do not allow them to control you
