Post Orgasmic Illness Syndrome (POIS)
dopamine:
Hi everybody, happy to know I am not the only one.
800 pages of posts are really a lot to read, so I go for my easy question: have enyone tryed boostind the dopamine levels? I am going to try starting today and will let you know the results. Why dopamine? After ejaculation when dopamine is low, prolactin is high. Prolactin is what make us feel tired after sex, but should stay high only for a short period of time until dopamine kicks back in. If dopamine stays low because of dopamine deficency, prolactin stays high for a long time and make us feel unconfortable. Crazy theory made by me last night. Time to test it.

Hey guys. How is everyone doing? I haven't been here in a while, would anyone like to catch me up on recent news?
Anyway, I'm doing an AMA, which is basically on online question and answer session, about POIS on a site called reddit. I'm making this post as proof, but feel free to check in and participate. Link is here:

Not so long ago I was joking with becoming a Buddhist Monk, if the remaining supp in my repertoire fails to change this state of mind. It was Carnitine. I tried both ALCAR and Carnitine fumarate. Like always, it had placebo effects on me. I didn't wanted to give up so I decided to completely eliminate porn from my life and go on a 30 days abstaining without touching myself, without youtube fetish videos, without girls in swimsuit on social sites etc.
This is my 5th day and I feel fantastic! I have been credited for my recent work by highly respected colleagues. The cloud of depression is shifting, and I actually did pushups and dips for the first time this year. The irrational thinking is gone and no longer have to rely on benzos to sleep. Sleep is still messed up. I got no erections at all (which helps me achieve my goal of 30+ days). I've got that "drive" in life and want to do and learn new things without the brainfog. Adrenals are pretty messed up. Severe fatigue and brainfog at daytime, but superhero at night with a sharp brain. Literally doing so much work in under 3 hours that used to take me 5 days to complete. I'm hoping to fix my sleep cycle to maximize these benefits. I'm looking forward to grow full beard and get results in the gym for the first time in my life. No other supplement or diet made me feel this awesome. Not even close. This is what we need to seek - this feeling of awesomeness & well-being. [O8)]

Yesterday I started to have erections first time in 5 days of abstaining and I noticed an immediate decline in intelligence and creativity. This remained today as well. No porn were involved. It sounds like some kind of brain-, neuroinflammation. Like PTSD? I thought about sex and shortly after I had the cloud of depression remain that's now 24+ hours. Could the porn use in childhood create such PTSD that the sexual imaginations lead to the effects like picturing blood, murder and horror? Maybe that's why I get depressed? The possibilities are so endless we will never find a cure. [V]
