Ive been here before, my past record 120 something days, but the flatline never lasted this long. Is anyone else experiencing a different kind of streak than what normally happens?
I was still flatlining (i would say withdrawal symptoms) after 300 days, and there's people still having it after a year up to almost 2...
300 days what the fudge! Maybe the flatline means different things to different people but if I had no libido still after 300 days i'd probably seek medical help cos the thought of that scares me
Ah I understand. Yes withdrawal symptons i.e "cravings". They always persist for me, like the urge is always there, just more subtle
To me flatline is the frame which contains withdrawals acute and post, no motivation, no libido, anhedonia, and depression. I have 10 months off pmo and still having these symptoms back and forth.
But I mean what is bad about flatline? I've never had it, so I don't know, but you seem a bit worried about it. But if it just means having no desire for porn/sex/masturbation, that actually sounds like it makes it easier to not relapse. Although I do remember one time when I hadn't had morning wood for some days and decided to test my erection by watching porn...
There is nothing "bad" about it, as such. I don't mind having a reduced libido - I was merely stating that previously it has never lasted as long this time around. When I implied being worried I was referring to the other poster who talked about it lasting 300 days, but he has since stated he was talking about withdrawal symptoms, and not flatlining
