    Hello guys,

    I am a 26 year old guy who has recently started NoFap. I am on day 6 and I believe I have entered flatline which is making me really anxious and stressed out. Since yesterday, this thing has been bugging me a lot so I thought I may well ask people here about it. I can't remember the last time I have had morning wood and I have been PMOing hard for the last 2-3 years.

    Can I ask fellow nofappers whether they suffered from a lack of morning wood for a long period of time and how/if no PMO helped in getting them back?

    Thanks,
    J

    PS: To avoid confusion, I would say that I haven't had morning wood for a few months, not 2-3 years which is how long I have been PMOing hardcore.
     
  3. My first time with NoFap, it was about 30 days before I had consistent morning wood. This time around has been shorter. I really believe the loss of the morning wood has more to do with the porn than fapping. At your age, you should be dealing with us. Are you on any meds? Doing drugs?

    Nope, I am not on any drugs nor take any medication. I have had atypical depression for a year now which I believe is a part of the reason why I have lost morning wood. Yes, my porn watching habits have really worsened this year but the past month has been somewhat promising (had a couple of single digit streaks before relapse). I am aiming for a complete hard mode this time (no sexual thoughts, no dating apps etc).
     
  5. Haven't had morning wood for the past few weeks. I'm on day 26 right now and I feel my libido starting to come back. For the first time in a while, I had a real urge to masturbate. Not the biggest urge out there, but it happened. I masturbated nearly every day for 7 years.

    Hey mate. Thanks for the reply. I am in the same boat, masturbated on a regular basis for the last 7 years. Do you want to connect?
     
  7. I joined this forum around the 10 day mark but haven't been coming here as often as back then. However, we can chat if you'd like that.

  9. I have chronically masturbated since age 12. Finally got down to 2 or three times a month. Was so bad I developed PIED.
     
  10. Depression can lead to loss of morning wood.
