decrease in intelligence after PMO

I think that's brain fog, not intelligence decreasing. Still sucks but not a permanent problem. Work on your self and itll come back.

 

Yes my man. You are completely right and many of us experience similar things. I myself can say that brainfog goes away pretty quickly. For me it disappears after like 3-4 days after PMO

 

Probably part of withdrawal, but it would get way better. With NOFap I scored my highest score in college last semester on 70 day streak . I have been relapsing constantly since this sem, will probably screw up college.

 

Education + porn = impossible

Yes, i am definitely much "slower" after I masturbate or watch porn.

 

Whenever i used to get stressed i used to just go for it for that "shot of dopamine" until it became such a horrible habit for me. I even realized it increased significantly during the exams period which left me in deep mind fog and devastating results in my exams. Although i always had a partner during my university years i just found PMO to be my way of dealing with stress rather than blowing off sexual steam. Took me 7 years to achieve my degree and only because i was forcing myself not to PMO during exams. A few years later now i decided to follow up with a masters degree and found myself in the same dark cycle ! it's like no information sticks to my head at all and no matter how long I study, even if i give subjects 3-4 times what normally i or anyone would, when the day comes and i have to take it out on paper my brain just goes blank ! That's when i decided to join the nofap and although it's only been 2 days but from previous experience..all you need to do is give time some time and be both patient and brave
