Right up front I want to say I'm sorry for the length of this post

...
So, I did read your post and it sounds fairly similar to what I've been dealing with for about 5 months now. I've never had a long enough streak to prove one way or another whether this is linked to pmo (hence why I posted here for answers), but I certainly suspect that it is. I will share with you some posts that I gathered, hopefully it will help give you some hope. Some of them might not be that clear without context, but just know that everyone of them is in relation to fatigue or energy and pmo. I got them from Nofap, Reddit, Your Brain on Porn and a few others...here you go
-Well for me, I also suffered from the symptoms u have described and now I am safe to say after about 78 days of abstinence all of these symptoms have disappeared i have way more energy now
- Before I dealt sometimes with fatigue I was tired most of the time . But one important thing is when you do this you're not tired as before. I haven't had such a good energy on years I feel like everything is possible all that you're afraid of and all your fear will darken away
-I know exactly what this is like...the fatigue continued
for me up until around 2 months no PMO/MO/O - then it improved immensely. I relapsed last night after a 94 days no O.
Just hang in there, it does get better,i was in hell for a few weeks
.
-Fatigue and shortness of breath had disappeared in my 109 days streak
-You will definitely feel a lot of energy, and vitality
-some benefits I’ve experienced during last 3 months.
For starters I got rid of chronicle fatigue. This means more energy through day
-When you reach a certain point (for me it was briefly after reaching 90 days) you will start to experience higher energy
-NoFap literally transforms you. I simply started it as an experiment though its benefits are immaculate. NoFap leads to surplus energy
-Initial symptoms took about 2 months to go away when I started rebooting.
-It gives you energy, self control and confidence. Mark these words its true. I am not joking, I myself have felt it.
-6 months for me.
-When I still did P, it made me tired. Both physical and mental. Now I don't have that problem anymore.
-Yes but it takes a while, for me around two months.
-it has been almost 4 years since my last 30 days+ and back then I felt amazing too. It can only get better, just imagine how you will feel like after 100 days... 300 days... etc forever.
-Thankfully the fatigue is nowhere near as bad or prevalent as it was in the beginning
-Fatigue is the first symptom of mine that is almost gone
-Changes After 31 days
I Expected to get a little better but I didn’t expect what I felt:
1. Chest pains and palpitations vanished completely
2. Mental clarity returned, I spoke with amazing coherency.
3. I could get only 4 hours of sleep a day and still feel strong like Hercules the next morning.
8. Most importantly, I wasn’t waking up with anxiety and panic attacks every morning again as the chemical imbalance in my brain had been repaired.
-I'm convinced that PMO caused my adrenal fatigue, which is basically just a colloquial term for HPA-axis dysregulation. I've been free of PMO for exactly 50 days now, and I can already feel that all my physiological problems are in the beginning phases of correcting themselves.
-I have experienced all of these symptoms during my recovery but you will find that over time they are all less intense and less frequent.
-Yes, I have definitely experienced huge improvement in energy after rebooting.
-I used to not be able to spend even a whole day at school or work and would fall asleep sometimes due to severe fatigue. Now my energy levels are very even throughout the day and they don't dip. I am able to focus a lot more on the task at hand and I feel a lot more productive.
-I've been doing NoFap for a little over a year now, and it has definitely helped my adrenal fatigue. I still don't feel 100% better, but I can tell it's helping.
-One of the pathological consequences of over masturbation is the buildup of cortisol in the body. Cortisol, known as a stress hormone, creates a host of harmful side effects when overproduced. It commonly leads to chronic fatigue
-I’m less tired. About a year ago during the summer holidays I would binge with PMO every night for weeks. I started to feel really tired and weak during the day to the point I’ve seen a doctor about it. It never occured to me that me PMOing every night could have something to do with it
- I got to 3 weeks and actually felt a lot better
-Exhaustion is a symptom of PMO. I've been struggling with it for a long time. PMO is way more powerful than you'd think in terms of it's effects on your physical health. Like you, no issues with depression (or ED), but I've had a list of 30+ physical problems that all clear up with a sustained no-PMO streak
-I’ve done 6 months of NoFap and my fatigue has seemed to improve a lot . 3 months wasn’t enough for me but 6 I’ve seen bigger improvements. The biggest thing to improve due to NoFap is 80-90% less brain fog.
-might be broscience but i definitely feel more energetic and healthier.
-100% pmo free since i post this, and i do feel better after 1 month now
-Upon waking in the morning I will struggle to get out of bed. It's that feeling of wanting to snooze non-stop and not get up. However once you get up and about, 9/10 times you will feel fine
unfortunately brain fog still exists, however it is NOWHERE near as bad as it was 3/6 months ago.
-I would often feel tired. While doing this no PMO (100 days today) it's gotten better at times. In the last two or three weeks I've had days where I feel really energetic, and in general I've been waking up earlier ready to go, without the need to keep sleeping like I used to.
-Agree 100% with this. I used to be sort of tired and lifeless throughout the day but couldn't fall asleep until 2 or 3 am at the earliest, having to wake up at 8 am.
Now I feel much more "natural," like I did a decade ago or so - tired at 10 pm, wake up at 6 am completely rested. If I don't get a full 8 hrs, I can still wake up no problem (this was very, very hard for me while on PMO).
Time is the best healer I needed 5-6 months of monk mode to lift it, BUT you will surely need less. I was addicted before you were born
-have been dealing with this shit for such a long time, it destroyed my life. I got anxious and depressed. My grades started falling off. And i was once a bright intelligent guy who used to learn stuff pretty quick. Then the brain fog came and it hindered me so much. I hated even waking up, didn't want to really live because of it. I tried everything from diets to doctor visits to allergies and nothing helped me. At one point i thought I had MS. But then i found out about NoFap, and boy did that do the trick in my case. Right now, i can say that i am 100% me again. Colors are once more bright. I love waking up and just getting out of bed fully rested once again. My energy is through the roof, i am working out twice a day. I can also finally have normal conversations without stuttering and trying to remember the right word.
-go on nofap you will have no brain fog after, trust me on this one, thank me later
