What is a flatline

See: https://nofap.com/glossary [also linked at the top of the page].

Brain fog is where your brain turns to porridge! Students can fuck up their academic studies because the 'fog' affects their ability to concentrate. But that is not a symptom of the flatline IMO. Mostly, it is low/zero libido or sex drive. The problem that it can lead to is people panic that their dick is permanently dead. So, they relapse to porn just to check it is working. The solution is - do not test your erection! Accept that your dick is temporarily taking a time out while your brain recovers.

 

Thank you for the best answer possible. I did not have this because all my streaks were small (sad ...), well I hope that this specific that I am now works and I reach 9+ days. Also, I'll not test with masturbation if my dick seems dead, hahaha.

 

You are welcome for any help I can give. If you check The Glossary again, read the description of chaser effect. If your streaks are small, it probably means they last 1-3 days. This would be understandable. If that is the case, tell yourself: "This horniness is temporary", by day 4 it will be better. If you can get past 3 days, you can definitely do the second half of the week. Make reasonable goals that you can reach. Then you will progress and slowly increase your streaks. If you can get to 7 days a few times, you could aim for double figures i.e. at least 10 days. When you can do that regularly you can aim for 14 days i.e. two weeks! That might seem impossible now Gon, but if you set each new goal a few days past your personal best you can build up your strength to cope with sexual urges to masturbate and look at porn pictures and videos.

Hahaha! Also, when you get dead dick for a while, it is easier to get longer streaks because the temptation is not there!

exactly what I needed to hear!

 

It's mostly associated with low libidio and lame erections. But I've never had one during my streaks I think, so it makes me so curious what causes this since I was very addicted to porn.
