    Pls note : this is not my personal experience but very closely resembles what I experienced - link to experience posted on quora shared below
    Hey Buddy, my flatline started on day 64 and it’s been a year. The worst part is over. The worst part lasted for about 6 months and now the flatline symptoms are very manageable.

    Here are the symptoms worst symptoms that I experienced:

    Depression

    Anxiety

    Heart Palpitations

    Restlessness

    Insomnia

    Speeding thoughts (anxiety maybe?)

    Weakness

    I am happy that I stuck to the journey. And I have no other choice. Every time I relapse (usually after 30-day streaks), the next two weeks are full of heart palpitations, brain fog, anxiety, mind continuously chattering. But the good news is that I have many more good days than bad days.

    Take care of yourself for the first 6 months in the flatline. Then it will become manageable and when it’s over, you will come out a different person on the other side.

    I do agree serious healing comes with that bear in mind. Leave the superpowers away and focus on this because it leaves you off guard.
