    Hey guys,

    im 20 years old and I am on my day 19 of NoFap facing a real depressive stage.

    Ive been talking to this girl for about a month now and it’s been amazing, we haven’t even met in person but we were planning to next weekend, I was excited af until she started replying hours later with very lame texts so I realized she probably got bored and I am here, giving the max out of me, i don’t even know what to do, my anxiety levels are on another level, I’m always checking if she’s online or not, it’s driving me crazy, I’ve never been like this before.

    does anyone know here if this could be part of a flatline from nofap? Will I ever get this over with??

    Anxiety and depression are common symptoms of flatline and withdrawal. This will get better with time, but you have to be patient.

    Also sounds like symptoms of really liking someone.
     
  5. Everything is okay, anxiety and depression would often appear throughout a reboot.

    The thing is, there can be a millions of reasons why that girl started answering with lame answers and started answering late, and you know what ? That's none of your business. You're not the only guy that faced that, in fact i have faced it myself too ...i would just stop replying to them because i can't carry a conversation on my own, if person is interested in persuading you such person should invest at least some of its time and effort into conversation. If such person isn't doing that ? Then stay away from such people, they're not worthy of your time, and neither is that girl, don't stress yourself over what you did wrong, focus on right thing to do. Which is accepting that there are just some things you cannot control, and move on from it.

    My suggestion is to stay away from dating at least for as long as you're rebooting. It can have your mind cluttered and your thought process shifted for worse, you don't need that stress stacked on your regular reboot, trust me on this. Everything will be alright, there will be plenty of girls but you need to reboot before anything, cheers.

    Thank you so much for that answer, I needed that, I guess that I was overthinking about the situation cause I was starting to reply very lamely and she just suddenly saved the conversation, it’s like she doesn’t want me to think that she is like interested or something, I actually think that it will help me more if I am with a partner, it actually motivates me of not watching any porn or masturbation

    To be honest, I envy you.
    I've been realizing how I don't even enjoy porn, and finally begging to see this the opioid-like drug it is, so I am 'excited' to get to the point when I have to deal with withdrawals, since it's when the 'curing' actually occurs. Be grateful that you are going through this, it's more than expected, it's necessary.
