    Is being sleepy all the time part of the rebooting? Anyone else going through being sleepy all the time? Im actually on my 13. Day but i had a phone sex with my gf at 8. Day but i reset the counter just to be sure. I am feeling low energy all the time is this part of the recovery?

    I don't know if it's common but that is also happening with me. Really sleepy, although I have trouble sleeping because of sex thoughts which don't help.

    Yes, it's part of the recovery process. You will go through a lot of things in your journey such as depression, anxiety, insomnia just to name a few. Know that it is part of the recovery process, it's only temporary though, and it does get easier. Just take it one day at a time :)

    Thanks bro, that was a relief.
     
  5. I'm currently going through it as well, but I've gone through it in the past when I once went over 900 days without P or M.

    The technical term I believe is Flatlining, and it's only temporary. The worst cases I've heard of can last up to two weeks straight.

    I think of it like working out after a long period of inactivity. Your muscles get really sore and you feel like you can't move. Over time though, you get used to the exercises. By quitting P and M , you've shocked your body/mind and Flatlining is the natural response.

    Right there with you. My physical and mental energy have been extremely low during the entire rebooting process. Hang in there and trust the process that you're brain has to go through.
