What is this? A flatline maybe?

    It started today.
    I don't need to look at girls, I could easily ignore them. I don't have erections... Today I had only one. Actually I have that erection right now, but I'm not that horny... Almost not horny at all. For me, this would discribe a flatline (+bad mood, etc).

    But. I am not sad, depressed, I don't feel bad at all. I am even much more confident, than I used to be, before I started NoFap, but it's probably because my self development process in the backround, and not because of NoFap, but who knows. Well, I'm not as super happy as usual, but I'm not sad. Maybe I'm just not that happy, because I had a boring day.

    So is it some kind of flatline, or I have problems with my libido, or I am starting not objecting (or whatever) women?

    Yes. That's how my flatline started. Just woke up with no arousal to women. Like I could have sexual/arousal thoughts, but there wouldn't be a physical response (erection) like there were before had I not done the reboot.

    And is it a bad thing? What will happen after it? Will I be super horny again, or will get back my healthy and normal libido?

    Couldn't tell ya. 2 weeks later and I'm still feeling that. Little more depressed than usual, but still no physical arousal. Still get thoughts often, but again, just no arousal. Sooo, ya. I'll let you know in 62 days.

    I'm on day 28, and I'm going through the same kind of flatline. Emotionally I still feel way better than the brain fog/depression I get from PMO but I haven't felt genuinely horny in like a week, and I haven't had any serious erections in that time either, which was happening the first couple weeks of nofap. I think the flatline time/duration is different for everybody but it seems like everybody gets it at some point

    Yeah mine actually started from day 8. Been feeling a bit depressed since then, mainly only when I get up in the mornings and also not requiring as much sleep. Horniness is almost non existent for me, mainly because I try and abstain from anything that could trigger me. Day 5 was a bit rough due to a lady that was dressed a bit unappropietly, but I immedietly went to do some push ups and sit ups, basically anything that could get my mind off my feelings. Didn't last long though, fortunately.

  7. You can still have a good day even if you are flatlining. It is hard to draw conclusions after 9 days anyways. Tomorrow might be completely different. I have probably been in a flatline for the last few weeks. I think it is about to end. I have had some rock hard morning wood the last few days.
