Flatline for days since rebooting

  1. OK, after a few relapses (last one on the 19th), I've been in a flatline. So 4 days NoFap plus a flatline. I don't feel attracted by anyone and I no longer get the obligatory ~5-7 boners a day. It's always limp now. Should I be concerned? I like it like that, because last time I had so much sexual energy in me that I felt my prostate will explode and the arousal made me have a panic attack. I still get panicky/anxiety these days, but it's more bearable. I know that if I persevere through the panic attacks they'll eventually give way to the blissful feeling of enjoying life (so called superpowers in NoFap speak) I experienced on my longers streak. Please tell me those panic attacks are because my energies or dopamine are getting re-arranged or something, please, I had a panic attack today on the bus triggered by a fast tempo song! In march I'll get my testosterone, estrogen, DHEA, cortisol, adrenaline etc. levels tested because I have thyroid and adrenal issues that might contribute to my terrible feelings when climaxing. I seriously feel like I need a 1.5 or 2 weeks off after I climax which is not natural. :)

    Flatline is a great time to work on relationships. The lack or urges and triggers lets us relate to the other person, because they are not a sexual object at this time, they are a person.
    Don't worry that you have lost it, your sexual self is in a cocoon and will soon emerge with new wings. Use this time to get ready for the future when you will be able to fly.

  3. I think my flatline is more like a meh mood. I did look at girls romantically (in an asexual way as I'm flatlining), but I don't have the energy or motivation. Not really feeling like talking to people. Sure I talked to loads of people on the phone today, but face-to-face is different and makes me feel wired and tired, just like a junkie without his fix. I even have the dark circles under my eyes despite sleeping enough.
