5 months no porn. 52 days hard mode no PMO. Been pretty much flatlined the whole time but the last 2 days have been awful. Utterly depressed and anxious; I've had about 3/4 naps a day and it's been hard to work. I had a wet dream 3 days ago and I've been on a downward spiral since. Man... I can't wait for this to pass.
This sounds tough. I am at the start of my journey. Hold on, this too shall pass.. Keep doing positive things you enjoy. Go for a run, take a walk in nature...
Just ignore he calls it an condition which is not your journey is yours. You're flatlining like me it comes and go trust me. Find what works for you to get through it. Dont listen to the cold showers fanmates. https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/reb...oes-withdrawal-from-porn-addiction-look-like/ Dont be hard on yourself mateo89 went through it as well. Take it slowly. If you pmod quit and flatline came go through it. Dont waste on listening people bad advices.
Porn has been the hardest thing for me to quit. I managed cigarettes, alcohol. Trying to reduce caffeine now. But porn is such an intense high. I'm trying to find a way to replace it.. Thanks for sharing the link (what does porn withdrawal look like). My relationship with porn started age 14 when I saw naked photos in the garage (my Dad had taken and kept them). My attraction to naked women has spiralled out of control since then. I am now 45.
5 months is an amazing feat though, well done. I am keen to hear what strategies you have used to help you through this time. I probably get to 2 months then relapse every time..
In the sense of a condition that doesn't exist? I was in a flat line for 4 years, adhering to a strict regime. And I came out of this flat line without a single relapse.
Thanks all. Yeah I'm keeping as busy as I can. Taken on lots of work but feeling so shite, I'm working really slow and having to work late to make up for it. Caught in bit of a cycle. Eating well, exercising, etc. you always think you're prepared for them symptoms but the mental ones are rough as heck! Thanks again. Never going back. Life is isn't life when you feel like this. Not going to watch that cheap shit every again.
