Usually after a relapse or when I hit rock bottom & decide to make a change, I'll be super social,outgoing, positive & seem to get alot of interest from girls around days 5-7 then it tapers off when the flatline hits around day 8. ALOT of people say this happens to them too & I think its cause we turn into our true selves for a bit. Maby the shock on our brain from quitting porn helped our best self get out, or maby its our brains way of showing us what could be if we just get through the flatline & stop fucking ourselves up with dopamine overdose. What do you guys think, why do we go from charismatic, to feeling like Betty White then back to charismatic?
It's your brain trying to rewire it's pleasure centers and to 'get back to normal'. You are gonna notice many flatlines. I think someone here posted a graph showing the mind's dopamine/pleasure and libido activity during the NoFap streak, it goes up and down like crazy, but when the flatlines start to become longer it means real mind repair is going on, just keep at it. The other day i had no morning wood, zero erections and zero "zest" and "drive", yet the next day it was the opposite.
Thumbs up for the Betty remark. NoFap unlocks the door to finding our true selves. We still have to step through on our own, NoFap cannot make us enter the doorway.
