    I'm not sure how else to describe this. After being addicted to PMO for many years , I find myself entering this odd mental state where my body is completely relaxed, I'm not looking at or thinking about anything erotic and I don't have any urges to PMO.

    My subconscious is really confused about it though. Like, my mind is expecting the rest of me to be horny over something as that was my default state for a long time, except I'm not. This brings on a really weird sensation I can only describe as phantom horniness, as strange as it sounds. It's pretty disconcerting and dissociating when it kicks off.

    Anyone else experience this?

    My body is not aroused, I'm not thinking about anything arousing, however there's a sensation in my mind that is telling me that I should be. Imagine your subconscious being confused why you aren't aroused when part of your mind thinks you should be. It's almost like a misfire in my brain that produces a phantom sensation of arousal that's soley in my mind, but is disconnected from the reality of what's going on in my body and conscious thought. I'm not horny in any way, shape or form, but part of my mind is sure that I should be and can't work out why I'm not. I know, it's a real wtf moment when it happens.

    Not a conscious thought, more like subconscious instinct that's telling me that I am/should be horny and then I get a moment of disconnect/disassociation because I'm not aroused or horny at all. It's not easy to explain at all, I know. >.<

    That actually makes sense. I'll chalk it up to my mind being it's usual weird self, then. ;3
