Welcome to NoFap!!!

 

Welcome to NoFap inrainbows. I want to help you but I don't know what to say regarding your anxiety and depression. I'd say no PMO can only help. I also think you need to psyche yourself up. You say you have a good sex life, a job and studying your dream degree. Perhaps you are feeling withdrawal symptoms simply because you don't have those anti depressants anymore. Maybe it's a good thing. But it sounds like you are in a good place, you just haven't gotten out of the funky mood you're in. In my opinion you are doing a great job at life than most people. Have you tried getting a bit of exercise or meditation? If you feel these things its important to be proactive about it. I believe you should keep doing the no PMO thing, as this is most important. Don't become someone who relies on PMO when you feel this way. Be strong and be amazing brother.

 

I second what @Breakthrough23 wrote. I would definitely stress exercise too as it really helps me keep relatively sane. I'd say more importantly though you need to reach out to your friends and just talk with them. It doesn't have to be about what you're going through right now, perhaps it would be best if you did talk about it, but I would be hypocritical to advise that since I shut everything up myself too and I don't want to tell you do as I say, not as I do. But I do know that visiting with friends and having loved ones around is good and healing and I can't seem to do enough of it these days and that is my sadness, so don't miss out! All the best.

 

Hello and welcome!

 

Welcome to NoFap @inrainbows! Glad to have you with us!

 

Hey friend, you're not alone. You are fighting for all of us. I don't know why but I feel really sad hearing your story. But just because your friends are not talking to you doesn't mean there will never be a good person in your life. Talk to your parents. You can private message anyone of us if you need an ear to vent out to.
And if you relapse, as you probably will. You do not render the progress you have made worthless. Beacuse relapse is an inevitable part of recovery. And next time you do fap recognise andwand analyze happening in your body. Focus on what's happening in your body. You'll understand that fapping actually doesn't bring you happiness even for a split second. And it is "YOU" who have to make your life better. Like a cigarette addict once tried analysing what happened in his body when he smoked. And the next day his exact words to his therapist was "Smoking tastes like shit and burning chemicals" So he went from knowing in his heart that smoking is bad to knowing in his bones.

All for one and one for all!
Peace out
