Is this all part of the process?

That's the effects of the masturbation induced brain fog, it may take a few weeks before its completely lifted.

 

probably more the anxiety/depression. But it could be the headache too, not sure because I'm not a medical expert.

 

Hi

I'm on day 11. I have been experiencing withdrawal for a bit like headaches I think. What else could they be attributed to because I don't remember the last time I got a headache.

However on the good side, I've been sleeping straight through the night and I'm remembering my dream a lot more. I haven't dreamed for a very very long time. But I've been dreaming almost everyday like I've been waking up in the REM stage I think. Also my memory has improved and I'm more mindful of what I'm doing in the day.

I remind myself that the headache and the irritation/irritability is part of the withdrawal and will soon pass as long as I don't feed/fight the urge. And that I'm on the road to recovery and achieving my goals.

I've been struggling with urges at night for the last 2 nights, so I've learned a psychological technique called "urge surfing" and I've been practicing it for the last 24 hours and I feel it has made a huge difference.

I wish you all the best mate. Just maybe you can add running/jogging to your routine as science has shown that regular exercise can keep help so much in depression and anxiety. That reminds me that I should go to the swimming pool and do few laps.

Kind regards

 

I have no problems with anxiety/depression and I have no headaches. I do a lot of exercises (especially cycling) and this seem to prevent depression and headaches as well.
