    I've made it to 48 days when all of a sudden I woke up with nausea, fever, and body aches and pains. Does anyone know if that's part of rebooting I understand porn addiction can be the equivalent of any other addiction but is that normal?
     
  2. I don't think that has anything to do with rebooting.

    Nah, it's just a coincidence. You just happened to get sick. Nothing related to pmo.

    Yes it's good for you. Your body is fighting you. I had the shits the shakes headaches heavy legs etc up till a few days ago. Pain is part of the process.

    You participated in destructive behavior and you are paying the price.

    I've been sober for 49 days though is it different for everyone or what? When did these physical symptoms begin?

    I don't think any two experiences are the same. I'm totally flatline now.

    Mine about 3 days in but if you read other people's experiences a lot of times they may stop and then all of a sudden hit back. I mean you could be ill Ill too.

    That's the thing I remember trying nofap at least 3 or 4 times before I took it seriously at best I lasted a week then one time when I was practicing nofap I had the worst anxiety feelings ever it took me a while to better myself it's still there every once In a while so I know anxiety is normal. How long have u been pmoing for I started when I was 12 so I'm assuming I'm one of us those people that will take longer to recuperate.
     
  11. I started when I was around 12 as well, or 11, I forget exactly, though this is the first time I've heard about physical pain from quitting porn, I'm not sure if this is a coincidence or not, I mean, it could be, maybe withdrawal symptoms. Though it doesn't matter what it is, your here, now, in the moment, the sooner you end this addiction the sooner you'll be free from the pain. I got this quote when hitting the panic button for NoFap.

    Thanks bro I really appreciate it. I still don't understand why i feel certain things but I'm positive they have to do with this digusting addiction. Im staying strong 49 days in!!

    My ED isn't all porn related. I have clinical depression and those meds have bad sexual side effects. The little pills havent helped me so I'm giving the reboot a try. I don't miss the porn at all.

    The no MO has been rough for me.

    I just flatlined the last few days but that's fairly normal.

    I don't miss porn at all either I just occasionally get sexual urges, I've had porn dreams, and porn scene flashbacks and anxiety pretty that's mostly my symptoms.
     
  17. the no mo has been rough for me to, but the moments after I masturbate are even worse. I just remember that. the feelings I have right after I m, I don't like those feelings.

    While I have read that some can experience "flue like symptoms" as part of withdrawals in the early reboot stages I think it is important to know that not everything that we experience relates back to porn and rebooting.

    Generally if you have ED they reccomend you limit masturbation to 1-2 times a week but like I said to me this is an experiment. When I am erect they do feel stronger and longer with greater sensation. I'm about 1/3 into the 90 days. I do feel better.

    I think you might just be ill with no relation to the reboot.
