I think nofap causes low dopamine: Lessened eye contact To become solution orientated and not looking the whole picture of situation Inability to present or focus Tend to become more cruel Aggression Zoning out in front of TV or computer Less interest in relationship Becoming socially withdrawn Becoming apathetic Low sexual interests These are the symptoms I've been experiencing lately. I'm on day 70
No duh it causes low dopamine. How do you think you got your dopamine fix? Getting off of dope (short for dopamine) also creates low dopamine.
ur bs. I think what you mentioned is the side effects of PMO actually. Why you look so much at the negative side and not the positive? Look and be happy for the positive and learn from the negatives.. What is with you negative thinking? If there really is no positive effects then 1. You are not rebooting well 2. Your cheating during the reboot, fantisize edge etc 3. You have nothing to compare to 4. You have to clear goal in mind. 5. If nothing improved during rebooting then you arent really rebooting.
It's not bs. It's a community that introduced me to Gary Wilson and his studies and I'm a new person. I got my life back. People here will progress at various results, but this community helped save my life.
No BS here! Like @IggyIshness said, you must either A) Still PMO'ing or B) Cheating during your reboot (Edging). Your on Day 71 so you SHOULD be feeling some sort of benefits. But hey I never made it all the way to day 70 and I also know that everyone experiences different reboot sessions but still there must be SOME positive change that you have noticed since abstaining from PMO for 71 days. But if you TRULY believe that it is not helping you then go back to PMO and reboot again to see if you notice even the SLIGHTEST change in yourself. God Speed brother.
I wonder if you are "flat lining" and that is why you are experiencing these things. If you are, it is temporary.
I think cutting heroin out is bullshit. Less fun, no more euphoria, no more dopamine overdose... BS man
I would agree with you man If I hadn't known the positive things Nofap brings. Unfortunately these benefits most of the time are temporary and the feelings you mention more long lasting. I have been what you've been through multiple times and I can only emphasize with what you are going through. It sucks, I know and nothing helps. No cold showers, no socializing, no exercises. It's just you vs. NoFap. It's up to you, now! Good luck!
