Skin Got Worse on Nofap

Short introduction...

I am on day 7 monk mode. Also, quitting video games and excessive internet usage. However, I still smoke which is one thing I am not ready to give up yet.

Made up my mind to quit pmo for good so this isn't a streak or challenge. It's a permanent lifestyle change for me.

Now about my situation...

I have always had really bad skin and eczema but it is usually not this bad. My skin has gotten so dry that there are constant flakes on my clothing. (I wear black all the time.) If it wasn't for covid I won't even be able to go public. Only these times I am able to hide behind a mask.

Any idea, what is causing this?

I know once you quit an addiction you start getting a lot of stress since your mind is lacking the stimulation you use to get and I know stress worsens eczema. There is also the possibility it's a detoxification like herxheimer reaction. Feels like it wants to get worse before it gets better.

Anyone else experienced worse skin during nofap?

Edit: I forgot to add that I am feeling flatline & just extremely bored almost the entire time. Which prolly adds to the increased stress.
