What is going on with my brain? (Need urgent help)

These are all withdrawal symptoms my man, and this is a proof that you were having an addiction in the first place, there is nothing wrong with your brain, you are doing really great, I have reached this stage many times but when I gave up to my urges I instantly regretted it and fell into a cycle of depression and guilt. Please don’t do like me, try to learn methods of dealing with stress, spend time with friends and go out, don’t stay at home of you are going to get urges at home.

 

you may see a psychiatrist for that, or spend time in nature, just do what you have to do to deal with it, just don’t give in to porn for the sake of god.

 

if you did not experience this before, it means you are not having OCD my friend.

 

okay visit a psychiatrist please, to finalize these thoughts and worries in your head.

 

despite that, I want to tell you I have had the same experience when in my first 22 days streak. I was really fatigued and anxious the whole day but many report that this gets better as time passes.

 

you just need to keep it up until then

 

My friend, it's hard for me to fall asleep before like you. Then, my mentor taught me some methods that are really useful.

First, don't worry that you can't fall asleep, because this kind of thoughts just make you more nervous. So, just relax your body and mind before going to bed, and tell yourself that everything is OK and I accept everything no matter what, even if I can't fall asleep, it's also OK. The fact is, closing your eyes and resting on the bed are already enough, you don't necessarily need to really fall asleep.

Second, when you are sleeping, you need to relax every part of your body, and FEEL your every inhale and exhale. You need to feel every feeling of your breath and feel you're relaxed, and do not think if you'll fall asleep or not. And when those worrying thoughts come, do not resist or follow them, just accept and ignore them - be open, and draw your attention back to your breath. Finally, you'll fall asleep.

Third, you need to know that our thoughts are not REAL, they will FADE AWAY as you notice them. The reason why you feel anxious is just because you consider those thoughts solid and real. How do I prove thoughts are not real? You can sit down and feel your every breath, and try not to control but notice thoughts, then you'll find that thoughts just come and go and in fact are empty. Therefore, you'll know that thoughts are not you, just ridiculous thoughts producing ridiculous scenes like movies. That's called meditation, which can help you calm, and with calmness you'll sleep better at night.
