    I started with PMO around 11-12 years old. At the time I developed severe social anxiety which triggered a very severe stutter. Again, stuttering reinforced my anxiety and vice versa...a vicious cycle. Around the age of 22, I started living differently - I started working out, started my own business and found a girlfriend. I had a normal sex life, I masturbated from time to time, but I felt great and full of energy, everything was going well, my confidence increased and the stuttering disappeared completely.
    After breaking up with my girlfriend, things went downhill for me, my self-esteem dropped and I resorted to frequent PMO again. I had a very strong stuttering again and it was very limiting in my work and personal life. I tried everything possible - natural medicine, dietary supplements, meditation, sports, anti-depressants. Nothing helped at all and my life was paralyzed by very severe anxiety and depression. I stumbled across the Nofap community and decided to give it a try. I started reading the posts and it all made sense. After about a week without PMO I started to feel like a king - my confidence increased significantly, stuttering suddenly subsided by 50%, anxiety subsided, I couldn't believe it was enough. I had tears of joy. Unfortunately, the joy was premature. After about 10 days I started feeling anxiety and extreme pressure again and relapsed. After the relapse I felt like crap again, but after a few days everything was fine again and I was high. I decided to endure it now no matter what. After 10 days, very strong anxiety started again, chest pressure, zero libido, extreme fatigue, increased need for sleep (most likely flat line), stuttering got significantly worse again. This condition lasted for about 2 weeks and now my energy and libido have gradually started to return, unfortunately not as much as I would like. In my sexual fantasies, only men (penis) excite me now, although I have always been oriented towards girls and enjoyed sex with them. I had similar homosexual ideas as a teenager and attributed it simply to the fact that I am bisexual. I was always more attracted to women and never had anything with any man. My current homosexual fantasies are very disturbing to me. At the same time, my nipples became very sensitive and swollen. It may be related to an increased amount of estrogen or prolactin? Has anyone encountered this? Will it go away?
    Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language.
