    I'm feeling strange and getting paranoid. It's like the increased energy has nowhere to go and my brain doesn't know how to cope so I start getting fearful. But I can't even say what I'm afraid of.

    Had this before on a number of times when around three weeks in to my abstinence. Usually causes me to relapse. Fapping reduces my psychic energy and the fear goes down.

    Anyone else experienced this in withdrawal/ flatline?

    Meditate, Workout, Socialize, basically rebuild your life with this new energy cuz if you don't then you will throw it away with a relapse.

    Maybe spending as much time as possible actively will help. Do sports - so much that you will fall into bed like a bag of potatoes at the end of the day.

    I think you should examine these feelings more deeply. Sounds like your mind might be trying to manipulate you because it wants to stay in control and make you its bitch. It's fearful of being figured out.

    Fear is ok and its alright to feel it. i wake up and feel fear and dread. Going to work for the same job I have done for 14 years and I still doubt my ability or think im going to mess up.

    It doesnt help as post slip I dont sleep well so the world seems so much scarier
