    hey guys i have been rebooting my addicted brain for two years and one problem has always been with me that is head buzz/ anxiety from sexual thoughts / arousal/ looking at women . I tried to know the reason for this many times but i didnt get any . So lately i read that it could be fight or flight mode of brain that gets activated from the sex thoughts .
    So if anyone know pls through some light on it

    from a neuroscientist point of view (me), flight, freezing or fight (FFF) are part of brain network involved in anger and fear. So, my first suggestion is to explore if you feel anger or fear when you think, meet or interact with women.
    Stay strong!

    I thinks it's part of your withdrawal. It's either a dopamine rush or your neurons searching for dopamine. I know I would feel a very real sensation in the front of my brain when I would have sexual thoughts.

    it may be the brain is still getting high from visual stimuli , i have been dealing with this for long . i had many bad sexual urges in brain when the brain was getting his dopamine high from sexual thoughts etc. we are addicted to neaurochemicals of brain , will we able to have normal sexual life in future or the brain will again get messed up from orgasms as i tried to mastrubate lately for couple of times and for the next two days after that i feel like so shit , anxiety low all day . will it be the same in future
