Hi guys ,
This is my first post on reboot nation , what a wonderful job everyone is doing here. I was addicted to porn for 9 years when i finally found this awsome website & the videos i stopped porn & masturbation in August 2015 , i felt really good after quitting for 3 weeks but then i decided that i will masturbate without porn because i had a slight urge to do so , the moment i was done i felt terrible again & new symptoms appeared similar to withdrawal in which i never had before, most of them disappeare after a while , so i stopped it & when i did it again in jan 2017 because of intense urges , the symptoms reappeared again. my question is, is it possible for masturbation to cause withdrawal symptoms? My symptoms are very similar to withdrawal symptoms & they keep appearing evey time i MO but i'm confused wither it's MO symptoms or withdrawal. I had suicidal thoughts , social anxiety, low self esteem, anxiety , irritability & anger. I really need your insight on this guys as i'm still having some of the symptoms but thankfully much of them are gone, thanks.
