Libido and lust

Man, I am happy to hear your libido came back I’m still frickin waiting. Did it slowly come back gradually or was it suddenly? Just keep persevering and whatever you do don’t watch porn!!!

 

If i think about something I would regret I will instead start reading aloud. May help for you too.

I'm glad to hear your improvment.

 

Sir, how did you get to day 459? Did you experience a lot of relapses when trying to quit PMO? I'm still struggling, and its been nearly 8 months since I tried to stop, but I just cant seem to quit cold turkey. Any help is much appreciated, Sir!

 

It took me five a bit years to get serious, I ultimately had to come to a point where I couldn’t function with debilitating withdrawal symptoms. In my own experience mate, honestly, relapsing even whilst on long streaks you don’t make no progress.

Only when you commit to never watching porn never again and recovering properly with lifestyle changes will you notice things getting better. It can take a long time. Best wishes.

 

Hey Big Lebowski! Nice post. So I am doing hard mode monk style. Have you come across any other people that have gotten rid of PIED in hard mode. I understand it is hard as people are relapsing but you think hard mode has been good for you. Also have you any advice on adrenal fatigues as well on the body from NoFap..

 

I think you should not use dating sites.

I started using one the last month, and seeing all those women make me crave to go with an escort...

 

How long was it "gone", your libido/the lustful desire? 9 months without it or did it come in waves or various times?

 

That's exactly how it is for me besides the libido in the beginning. It feels like the symptoms starting again as in the beginning. Symptoms like head tingling sensation or nerves heating, shaking and dizziness, weight on and off or my palms changing color in red and turn back normal. Then they vanished and I felt good a lil bit. Return again so on and so... Sometimes I feel like giving up as the symptoms playing Marco polo with me.

 

Totally agree about this. I eliminated P completely in my last 120 day streak but was using Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge like crazy I think to get a dopamine hit any way that I could. This led me to some of the girl’s Instagram pages where the process continued. The mind has a very weird way of getting what it wants. Eliminating screen time as much as possible I think is a smart way to to go about a reboot.
