Hard to say man. I pmoed for 3 years and I still have these symptoms at day 112. Trust in the process and find positive things to work towards in your life
It will change soon. Just keep pushing. I believe if you look closer there are already improvements. What I can just advice is that you don't give up. It's still better than being in that Problem. It will soon happen. Are you more emotionally stable? That's the first step
I am having Insane mood swings... some times happy and after few hours depressed.... and when I see that I am not getting improvements on nofap I get even more depressed....
I'm close to four months now there is pied improvement but I'm I drink alcohol a lot sometimes and I eat unhealthy I also don't meditate I don't cold showers
Don't leave one addiction only to get into another one. Try to stop alcohol because all addictions have very similar effects on the brain. Just exercise more will over your cravings so that you can be healthier and not fall into another trap. Prevention is better than cure
Are you sure there are no underlying problems apart from the PMO. Don't focus so much on the benefits yet. Try to be distracted because depression can also be a trigger.

I had realized that I was using porn to add value ( to validate) my masculinity, when I realized that it was doing the opposite and that I had what I needed in me to be a man, the urge for the porn left. But I understand what your feeling, porn takes on a life of itself and becomes somewhat of a close friend, a companion. And for me, sometimes not having that in my life would give me anxiety, because it becomes part of you. There can be a grieving that can happen when you put that part of your life to death. Talk to a counselor or a therapist. Or check out recovery nation.com they have a free recovery program. Lots of insight. You got this! We all got you!
