    My Journal
    I have been on and off Nofap for a while, but I PMO'ed significantly more and more over the past 2 years. Now I am beginning to feel some brain fogs when I'm on my streak / not doing PMO, and I'm not sure whether it is due to quitting PMO or my mind is already conditioned to liking PMO such that the only way to get rid of brain fogs is through PMO itself.

    I don't know about others, but it's a really scary moment, which forces me to think what's the motive behind watching porn. When I relapse I don't even feel good anymore, it's more of a compulsion, a "need" rather than a "want" to relieve emotions.

    This is a rationalisation from the part of you that wants PMO. The addictive part of your mind lies to you in any number of ways.

    If you have brain fog check your diet, sleep health, mental and emotional health and exercise. Do you have things in your life that are meaningful? I 100% guarantee that porn is not the answer.

    That can be the abstinence, in my case when I haven't masturbated for days I suffer anxiety and trembling because my mind need dopamine from masturbation. In this cases the only solution is tolerate it and be strong, when I am in this state I usually do mindfulness or I go to a place where there are people and I can't be alone. You have to find something that can help you in this cases. Let's go, you can do it!
