Hmmm...usually exercise pumps me up. You might need to start building an exercise habit - once you normalize feeling great after working out your brain will look forward to it, right now you are dreading it. Are you getting enough sleep? Also, do you drink water during then day? I found once I stopped drinking pop and milk and ONLY drank water I had more energy throughout the day. You may also have a poor diet...it might be beneficial to get an allergy test and a testosterone test as well.

Music also motivates me. How is your stress level?

Everything just feels like a chore to me.

You sound bored. What is your general boredom level in life?

Some things outside this forum that help me deal with this kind of stuff is r/EOOD (exercise has helped me more than anything else...also, healthy eating, cutting out pop/sugar and drinking WATER) and r/stoicism (read up on Marcus Aurelius). Good luck brother, and remember, you are not the only one in this situation - we're in this together.

In r/nofap they talk a lot about the Flatline a lot, that might be what is troubling you - especially if you watch porn on a regular basis. Have a read and ask around in that forum.

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned. - Tyler Durden, Fight Club

ALOT of amazing information here, thank you.

I will try to get more sleep and to drink more water, however I am not sure how I can improve my diet because I do not have alot of time throughout the day, and so cooking is kind of hard.

I believe that I have become stressed out alot over my oneitis and I am pretty bored in life. Nothing really just seems that fun to me anymore.

ill try to read up on those forums when I get the chance.

Flatline? This actually seems to be happening to me right now, however I am hoping that I do not need to wait 2 years for my libido to be back?? The only thing is that I dont get that horny anymore, or have a huge desire to masturbate. However I can get horny if I want to be or if somebody/something turns me on. It just seems like whenever I see a girl that looks hot, I don't feel any desire to fuck her unless she is actively touching my dick. I feel like it might be my testosterone levels and my sleep schedule. I will try to fix that up and see how it goes.
