    I'm at day 63 of hardmode and I am currently experiencing a emotional flatline. I experienced it for a few weeks between days 20-40. Besides the fact that I generally feel shitty during the flatline, I also notice that I toss and turn and wake up a lot at night during this period of time. I have also noticed that I have extreme urges. No matter what I do I get a bunch of persistent sexual thoughts throughout the day. I'm not afraid of relapsing, but these flatlines are irritating.

    Anyone else experience something similar?

    Sounds like you are doing really good. You can do this. Each battle will bring you closer to winning the war against addiction or as you say mind over pleasure. Keep it going. Week by week.

    This is very normal. I remember going through some tough days during that period of time and once it goes away, you feel victorious. Hang in there.

    Well its more like, when I do these streaks I count the days, everyday. Because of that, 30 days seems like forever. Now that I'm at 60 days, I can't imagine relapsing just to start the count all over. It's not an option.

    Oh thanks man. I'm riding on the notion that the hardest challenges bear the best rewards. I hope that after this crazy urge session goes away, the benefits will be better than before.
