Hello fellow rebooters! I am about 30 days into the reboot and I would like to know what withdrawals, if any, that you all have gone through.

Here are mine: More susceptible to stress/tension (though its lessening). The depression and anxiety comes and goes. They are felt more when I am not doing something.

In all, my withdrawals are getting better but I would like to know what your personal experience was with them at this stage (32 days no PMO, 9 days no MO).

Thank you for sharing!

Here are three journal entries I wrote earlier this year, which describe my feelings:

There is an overhanging feeling that a part of me is numb.

This is pretty bleak. I still have that numb feeling of emptiness whenever I'm not distracted by something else. However, it is not a feeling of depression. I've had that before and that is very different; much worse.  I just feel like a bit of me is missing. What a stupid thing to say. 'Numb' is probably the best word to describe it.

I still feel that horrid numbness when I happen to think about my body having a sexual purpose....but I guess it is not worrying me when I'm not thinking about it. I only feel sad about it once or twice a week nowadays. But to keep realising that the same feeling has returned, makes it seem worse overall.

Week 1 -2:

* more focus
* more energy and a high level of motivation to change and do things
* random boners through the day
* mood swings and the fear to relapse
* "defrozen" emotions (crying, laughing, feel sad, feel hopeful etc.)

Week 3 -4:

* brain fog
* temper
* a lot more mood swings
* social anxiety
* imsomnia
* new hope to better my life
* happier in overall
* "numb" feelings

The good news is:
I love every withdrawl. Every withdrawl means a step further to a better (means unclouded) real life :)
