    Im n"t the only one then
    I lost really a lot of my cognitive functions & brilliance. May be suprathreshold DOPAMINE levels was the drive for my brain. But i"ll never link that to nofap. My brain will figure out how to get accustomed to normalised DOPAMINE levels & must regain its full functions cuz there"s no more fap. He must accept that.......

    I'm thinking of taking a supplement to help... I found L-tyrosine as a helpful dopamine support. Could help a lot reset damaged dopamine receptors from all the P... Also helpful for flatline period.?

    It"s not about the substance
    It"s about the receptor it works on
    We prescribe dopamine direct in cases of parkinsonism but that never made them horny or perform well during sex
    It"s complicated

    Well i'm happy to say that i made it through the weekend. I'm feeling flatine already could it be? I currently have a super low libido. Having P flashbacks in my mind as well, the thoughts are the strongest when i wake up.

    Don't give up. That is your brain trying any way possible to give it what it wants, that dopamine rush. Claim control of your own mind. You are letting your mind control you.

    Perhaps you are mentally ill, and you are using PMO as a means of self medicating? I'm not saying that you are crazy, but it seems like you have a lot of anxiety, and you should find ways to deal with it other than what you are accustomed to. Your mental health will only improve if you take steps to identify the root of the problem and find a solution.
