Long reboot

Yes, it becomes easier to feel an ambient happiness, just with normal daily life.

Because the dopamine isn't yanking the emotions around, when it receeds and causes anxiety.

 

Are you saying you haven’t looked at porn or masturbated even one time in three years?

and you are still feeling bad effects?

 

You have a confidence problem. That's ok, you can fix it. Confidence is built through work, effort and achievement.

 

How long have you been in nofap year wise? Also how long and how much you were addicted??

 

I did my first streak in 2018. I'd never heard of NoFap before then. I've done 4 full hard mode reboots since, including the one I'm on.

I was 43 back then, I estimate that I was addicted for 28 years. Pretty much daily use of pmo.

 

The question was for OP but I'll address your answer.

You said 4 full hardmode. But how many days of hardmode for each??

Do you feel closer to healing than farther??

 

You probably need 1 or 2 years hardmode to completely heal I guess. However it will depend of how much or many years you were addicted. Also the type of contents you were consuming.

 

I never encountered such issue while in nofap. However I used to have brain throbbing or tingling if I saw a woman dancing in a provocative way on TV.

 

Ok sorry about that. I didn't mean to interrupt.

 

That's alright man
