    Hello my friends,

    I am on my 31 st day. The last weeks I had all the super powers: endless energy, motivation and the ability to communicate with everyone and a very strong self confidence. Since the weekend I feel suddenly depressed and very weak. I could cry every minute. I don’t know what happened. I really don’t want to relapse. Are my feelings normal? Is this part of the rebooting process. What can help? Every advise is very appreciated. Thank you

    Sorry to see that you're feeling down.
    Yes. Part of the ups and downs of the reboot process.
    Look at it this way: For years, whenever we felt down or angry or anxious, we'd use PMO to push away our emotions. But PMO doesn't actually solve anything, it's only temporary. Now, for the first time in quite a while, you're reconnecting with your emotions.
    When I feel down, I either take a walk and just let the feelings settle in (BTW, nothing wrong with crying every now and then), or I talk to a friend or relative. You can also consider seeking professional help.
    Good luck!
     
  3. Feeling sad beats the crap out of being death inside. I hope your flatline goes away quite soon! Be strong!

    Thank you my brother for your answer. I really appreciate this. It’s really true what you say. I have done pmo for 35 years. It’s first time in so many years that I feel myself. I just met my brother and we had a good conversation. I am feeling better now. The urge is very hard today. But I will not give up.

    Thank you for your response. I really appreciate this. It’s so good to know that I’m not alone. I will not give up. I know tomorrow I will feel better because I didn’t gave up. We keep fighting.

    Thank you. Greatest respect that you are still fighting! I will fight too. I hope that this will also end soon for you. It’s better to suffer because of self discipline that because of relapse.
