    i've been in flatline for three months now and had countless sex/porn dreams. was just wondering if this is really flatline because I do wake up
    with strong erections every morning. but I don't have any real sex drive like I used to.
    just wondering if it could be anxiety or depression discuised as flatline?

    Are you talking about when you're aroused, random erections? 90 days isn't a "finish these and you'll be good to go." A lot of reboots listed on yourbrainonporn take twice a long at least. Some take over a year. Most successful reboots take half a year to a year to complete.

    I'm talking about pure physical morning erections with no indications of actual arousal. Few weeks ago there was sign of arousal and thought of girls but that only lasted couple of nights.

    Morning wood isn't generally a sign of arousal, just healthy flow. I'm at Day 40 with no erections from arousal yet. All in due time I guess.

    Morning wood may be more a statement of the fullness of your bladder combined with your age. Very young boys get them, but they don't attach any importance to them, so they forget about them. Mother's giggle at them. Old men rarely get them and eventually cannot remember what they were. The joys of incontinence and senility.

    yes this sounds about right. once I take the days first leak, there's no sign of erections no more. how come full bladder causes morning wood?

    Your prostate is your ultimate shutoff valve for urine. You do not want any urine in your ejaculate. Urine is the wrong medium for sperm, so in addition to providing the fluid and push for your little swimmers, your prostate also blocks any flow of urine. It also flushes the tube with a good coating of pre-cum to prepare it for blast off. It is a fairly complicated process that works especially well while you are young. When you age, your prostate can go over to the dark side and cause a variety of issues that you do not want to even think about.
    Early morning, you want to keep sleeping, but your bladder wants to be drained. Your sub-conscious solves both problems with a good erection. Enjoy.

    Sounds like depression. If you have 3 months of NoFap you should be ready to go by a long shot, your body should be ready for ejaculation.

    Try working out and taking it easy.

    Yes you can get erections during flat line. These are just porn urges. Sex dreams are porn urges. If you don't have a sex drive like you use to, then your still recovering.

    It's definitely porn related
