Is it normal to feel drained/ overall lack of energy at around the 1 week mark? I’m a little over a week of no porn and no fap but feeling superr dazed and finding it difficult to get stuff done. Is this pretty typical for people around the 1 week mark, and what are some tips/ strategies for pushing though this rough patch?

You’re going through some kind of withdrawal symptoms. Since it is an addiction it’s normal to have a reaction when going cold turkey ya know

I also am at day eight, but what I find helpful even though you may feel drained is exercising. It keeps your mind distracted and it improves your overall mood. Hanging out with family also helps.
