    How long did it take for some of you guys to get over feelings of withdrawals?

    I found waves of very intense paws when I committed to this process and stopped edging. Before, I was edging in the mornings... massively anxiety hit and then 6 months of PAWS. A few really bad weeks, then a good few days and then repeat. But every PAWS cycle was a little easier. Now, I have those paws symptoms but massively water down when I have too many orgasms close together. It tends to last for 2 weeks or so, very manageable – just annoying.

    14 days is the scientific number for neurochemistry.
    But psychology correction will take much much longer, and depends all on your effort and approach.

    I know I feel like a ball of a mess mentally. I feel a lot more irritable and it takes little to set me off. Anxiety is definitely a feeling as well.

    It depends on how long you were addicted for and your frequency, but the truth seems to be that it's going to take quite a bit of time if you were anything but an occasional user. Most people here obviously aren't occasional users so I'd say prepare for a long recovery.
