is anyone getting anxiety attacks during nofap..? its my 2nd day and I am experiencing severe anxiety.. during my last streak, i experienced the same for the first few days
Oh yeah I have severe anxiety attacks as well. I deal with it by socializing. Now when I say socializing I dont mean leaving ur house and chilling at a bar. I could be playing online with random folks or ur friends. That might not work for everyone but it works for me. Also leaving my house works as well.
Absolutely, for the first two days I will feel uncomfortable off and on, I solve by going for a long walk
What i did was, i had bought a harmonica 6 months ago, but knew shit abt it. Now, after reading so many posts in the forums abt diverting ur sexual energy to various aspects, i decided to work on the mouth organ. And trust me, i felt a release (emotional, psychological, whatever...) very different from a MO. I was well aware of what i was doing and i had no regrets or shitty feeling afterwards. I felt in control... somewhat. So what i want to say is, i'm guessing here, the anxiety u are talking about is related to the absence of that temporary and fleeting moment of bliss which we associate with an orgasm. So, what i can suggest is find some other source of happiness, for me it was the harmonica. It could be something else for u. I also got engrossed in books for some time and those helped too. So go do your thing and tell me if it helps.
