    Hi everyone!

    I'm currently at 77 day of abstaining from porn, but I was masturbating/fantasizing during that time ~2 times per week. 12 days ago I decided to go full no PMO mode and what I experience right now is probably most difficult period of my life. My mood and anxiety are terrible and I can barely handle. I took benzos 3 times during these 12 days despite the fact I took it like 7 times through the whole 2015.

    I know these symptoms are pretty common to nofappers. Just wanted to know how long I should expect it to last. Will it be days, weeks or months?

    Well,

    The sadness is not always steady. weeks I would say. Work on convincing yourself that life without PMO is not sad. It's the same feeling as when you stop smoking or drinking. You are led to think life will be boring and sad forever.

    Maybe you want to try meditation, maybe mixed listening to binaural beats with isochronic tones "tunes" (search on youtube). Need some decent headphones. Some tunes CLAIM, to help you becoming happy. Some CLAIM to trick the brain into producing serotonin and/or dopamine. I don't know if its true and effective.

    Careful with benzos, they are addictive. I'm sure you know.
