    I'm 16 days in this time and I have felt that my libido has gone down. However, I have noticed that my voice has gotten a lot deeper. I just have some questions regarding the flatline.

    1. Should I try to talk to and sleep with girls at this stage? Last year, when I was 30 days in, I was with a girl and my dick could not get hard even when she was touching it. I felt no urge for sex whatsoever.

    2. I know that flatlines can last a while. Last year, the flatline seemed to have lasted from 30 days all the way until my 90 days had been completed. I didn't feel more confident at all. I had compulsively watched porn from 8th grade until the end of my freshman year of college. I'm just concerned how long my flatline will last.

    3. When will I see a confidence boost again? The only time I felt a confidence boost was when I first started.

    Thank you.

    For me personally I went into flat-line form day 40 into the 60s. I know it feels like it'll never end and it makes you anxious; but you said it yourself man; it WILL end. Nobody can tell you when for sure as it's different for everybody. Just have faith that your sexual energy will come back with a vengeance.

    James, am I reading you correctly that the flat-line ends in a very obvious fashion?

    Obnoxiously obvious. For me at least

    That's good to know. Out of the zillion posts here, I have yet to see a discussion about what the END of flat-line looks like.

    Strong urges! Intense urges!

    Flatline (first stage) lasts from day 40 to Day 60s ( a pattern for many guys) but there will be more flatline stages till the body is fully healed. I’m done with the first flatline phase now. Will probably enter second flatline phase but no clue on when

    I believe that will be very helpful for me.
