Hello there, flat-earth tripulants
Trying to get my life back together to its full potential.
First I would like to thank all the comunity for sharing knowledge and care, and that's truly beatiful to see how a positive collective mindset can lift up lives that have been crawling through obscured perspective.
Being a bit inspired by @Grambo's log, I'll try to make it chronological.

- Born on 1996

1996 - 2010
- Stressed out kid, would easily get into fights
- Poor diet, sugar, too much dairy, mostly carbs (breads, cakes, biscuits..), red meat protein, little fat, at least I aways liked legumes, but here in Brazil we have the costume to over cook everything we eat.
- Getting to know sexuality and going nosedive in porn, masturbation (3 times a day) and video-games.
- some family crysis here and there, developing social-inadequancy (anxiety).
- was always into sports, so I was pretty active.
- good sleep, 8 hours

2010 - 2014
- a bit better diet, much dairy (cheese, milk and derivatives), much sugar still, not much vegetables, mostly carbs, red meat protein, little fat. Would skip meals to do something else and eat a bread instead.
- still doing very poorly on porn and masturbation (worse than before), would cut off games for a while.
- crazy heavy headache that I could just lie on bad in total darkness - or I could throw up -.
*Doctor said it was normal and was just because of puberty (???).
- social anxiety increasing (shaking body, cold hands and feet), first signs of brainfog appearing, trouble concentrating.
- not as much active as childhood was, getting lazzier.
- not too fat, but bloated, stuffed face.
- first signs of depression and suicidal ideation, morning fatigue.
- realizing that's something wrong, started to study about general health.
- first signs of frontal diffuse hair loss, but would just notice it later on.
- Got my appendix removed, would get one bad flu by year (antibiotics use most likely), taking pills for headache, Azithromycin for acne.
- low life drive, confidence, low self-stem.

2014
(now things started to get more interesting)
- worst diet ever, premade microwave dishes for almost the whole year
- crippling stomach pain (awakening in the middle of the night), nervous gastritits (endoscopy exam)
- depression and suicidal ideation getting worse
- Sleeping too much or too little
- no physical exercises at all.
- Hairloss getting worse
- Black stools, worst digestion ever.

2015
- started drinking and smoking (tobacco and marijuana)
*cigarretes from 2015 - 2017
- social anxiety still the same but founding ways to cope with it

2016
- Getting into college
- Better diet, much dairy (cheese, milk and derivatives), going vegetarian, cutting sugar off
- getting into NoFap, but would not follow it strickly
- Social anxiety on a medium level, would still get shaky in stressful situation, brainfog, trouble learning and absorbing knowledge.
- Cold hands and feet still.
- Hairloss in its peak, started to consider ways of treating it, used minoxidil for a while (1-2 months), some multivitamins
*lost 30-40% of hair on front, diffuse mixed with V-pattern.
- Still low self-steem

2017 - 2018 (Awakening)
- Best diet (but not nearly optimal), still mostly vegetarian through 2017, would eat a bit of everything, much dairy (cheese, milk and derivatives).
- Almost no sugar.
- Stopped smoking, no masturbation, no porn, no orgarms (except when having sex)
*2,5years of NoFap.
- Started to get into fitness (cycling), it would manage my stress so much, but I really think I over did it, as I could cycle for 30km to 40km almost daily.
- Got leaner and skinnier, lost a bit of muscle.
*Height: 1,82m
Weight: 63kg

- Strict cold showers routine followed by buddhist meditation.
- Hairloss stil a big deal, but not shedding continuously, I would shed heavly for 2 months then no as much for 1-2 and repeat.
*I have long hair, so I can still cover it, but its slowly going. Almost 40% of top-head hair gone (worse on the front and temples).
- Much more happy and content.
- Depression is still here somewhere, but I can manage it, no suicidal ideation.
- Crazy sleep patterns, 5-8 hour of sleep a day.
- Learning got much easier.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Just some back ground,
main concerns are:


- Severe Premature Ejaculation, this one being my top priority. I can get stone hard in no time, just by thinking, too easily aroused. I'm lasting 2 - 3 minutes of slow thrusting, or like 1 minute with the girl on top, with my head too tense to really enjoy it.
*Wet dreams
* Could it be anxiety?
* Low serotonin? High Histamine?
* High sensitivity because of NoFap?

- Anxiety can really mess me up sometimes, I don't remember the last day that I woke up and went to bed being anxiety free for the day.
- Hairloss is still a thing, did salt scrubs for a while, knuckle massaging improved my condition a little, but overall, I'm still shedding too much, and can also see miniaturization happening.
- Remaing signs of depression.
- Energy comes and goes, I have days that I could wake up fully rested and ready for the day, and ones that I just want to be quiet.
- Bad sleep.

Nice lil write up. Man I don’t know where @Grambo is. He hasn’t been on since Oct 3rd, no answer to pm. Hope he’s ok. Kid has been through a lot.

You can definitely get your health to a much better place from stuff you are learning here.

Seems like something is off there with zinc/copper (both low end) and ceruloplasmin low. TSH a bit high and lower thyroid hormones too.

I’m guessing slow oxi. Are you considering having hair test done?

I hope too, man
thanks for the analysis
Yeah, I find it strange too, I always thought that I was fast oxi.(as I am very lean, low body fat, anxiety prone, fast thinking etc. -Dr.Wilson's view.) but those tests would put me into slow oxi. Is the hair test the only safe way to determine the oxidation type?
Definitely, but I can't afford it now, or I could get the hairtest but wouldn't have the money for the supplementation, is it worth it? I guess I could save some money until being able to get both..

Damn man, if ive ever seen dedication than its you. 2.5 years of no fap and also cold showers and meditation... Did you cold turkey fapping or slowly cut it down?

I tend to fluctuate between pe and ed
When i have pe im so easily aroused and i have no hard flaccid but when i have ed i am not really in the mood and i have a hard flaccid. You could try some pelvic stretches for PE.
You cou go for two rounds with a girl if you can still get it up after the first. Just untill you fix it.

Since you were a chronic masturbator, have you been quenching your pelvic muscles to achieve an orgasm faster?

Best wishes man, i really hope you figure this out.

I bet he’s fast. I have almost same bloods and symptoms and I’m fast. Prolactin and copper pointing to fast.

Hey buddy, did your PE start after taking the minoxidil? That’s when PE kicked in for me.

You're way too skinny. Coupled with anxiety, relatively high TSH, easy arousal, premature ejaculation, cold hand and feet - those are all indicators of very high adrenaline. Your mineral and hormonal values seem okayish, apart from Prolactin, which stands out as being too high. You're doing NoFap, don't smoke and don't drink any alcohol, but with what have you replaced it? What are you doing? Instead of cycling and endurance sports, I think you should get into bodybuilding ASAP and build up some muscle. Also things such as martial arts, sprinting, etc. would be optimal.

For you I'd even consider some cyproheptadine at first to increase hunger and to gain weight, but keep in mind that it tends to increase ones water weight substantially, which is easily lost again after stopping it again though. You're not eating sugar and are vegetarian? What are you eating then and how much? Seems to me that you are highly malnourished and need some good food. I know it can be hard because if you run on adrenaline, it's very, very hard to gain quality weight. Because everything is burned pretty much instantly. Maybe also consider supplemental thyroid in some form. Things such as magnesium, vitamin C, taurine and MSM might also be worth a shot for your situation, as they tend to be helpful with anxiety and hair issue symptoms. One other thing: Are you consuming any products containing caffeine?

Your mineral and hormonal values seem okayish, apart from Prolactin, which stands out as being too high. You're doing NoFap, don't smoke and don't drink any alcohol, but with what have you replaced it? What are you doing? Instead of cycling and endurance sports, I think you should get into bodybuilding ASAP and build up some muscle. Also things such as martial arts, sprinting, etc. would be optimal.

For you I'd even consider some cyproheptadine at first to increase hunger and to gain weight, but keep in mind that it tends to increase ones water weight substantially, which is easily lost again after stopping it again though. You're not eating sugar and are vegetarian? What are you eating then and how much? Seems to me that you are highly malnourished and need some good food. I know it can be hard because if you run on adrenaline, it's very, very hard to gain quality weight. Because everything is burned pretty much instantly. Maybe also consider supplemental thyroid in some form. Things such as magnesium, vitamin C, taurine and MSM might also be worth a shot for your situation, as they tend to be helpful with anxiety and hair issue symptoms. One other thing: Are you consuming any products containing caffeine?

Great post, i think you got it with high adrenaline.

@ballheadbuddha just jump on tei and it will eventually fix you. Tei is extremely easy to follow and it will make you more balanced than you have ever been your life. It has helped me with things i thought were normal like: fatigue in the middle of the day, sinuses, slow metabolism, hungry all of the time, 1 bowel movement every other day, sweet cravings, and more ( those are just some of the things I've had all my life). Pfs wise it's helped a lot also. It's basically a legit cure all, and that's what we need for the state we are in.

@RebelWithACause tei will eventually get rid if your digestion issues. Mine were usually a little worse on supps. Currently digestion is perfect and no bloating or cramps on supps. This round of supps almost feels like taking nothing, no negatives.

Lately I have been experiencing the same adrenaline spikes you have, maybe twice a week, an hour at a time. Feel Iike i am running on empty and hyped up at the same time. It gets better with tei. Use to be all day every day I felt like that.

Thank you all for taking the time to respond!
Sorry for the late response, I was travelling and couldn't manage the time!

Damn man, if ive ever seen dedication than its you. 2.5 years of no fap and also cold showers and meditation... Did you cold turkey fapping or slowly cut it down?

I tend to fluctuate between pe and ed
When i have pe im so easily aroused and i have no hard flaccid but when i have ed i am not really in the mood and i have a hard flaccid. You could try some pelvic stretches for PE.
You cou go for two rounds with a girl if you can still get it up after the first. Just untill you fix it.

Since you were a chronic masturbator, have you been quenching your pelvic muscles to achieve an orgasm faster?

Best wishes man, i really hope you figure this out.

Man I wish I were so much more disciplined than I am now, but I'm heading towards my best, really feeling it!
I was just done with fapping and porn, it was more like one of my last chance to grasp life, it was that dramatic, couldn't manage to go on living on those shoes, facing anxiety in every corner, not looking people in the eyes.. I don't know how those so called 'superpowers' , that the Nofap community keep preaching, works, but I experienced many, mental sharpness, will power, courage, equanimity in general.. I was cutting the habit out slowly, but you got to take the leap.. What has helped me the most was Journaling/Buddhism, your present self just can't win an argument with your yesteday self about something that was done and regretted, that reminds you how fluid we are, how we must not answer all self deceiving inner turmoils, but be present and sovereign all the feelings.
I'll look into those pelvic streches, what do you think about Kegels, worth trying?

"..quenching your pelvic muscles to achieve an orgasm faster?"
I belive so, man
just got to break this habit, do you have it too?

Hey buddy, did your PE start after taking the minoxidil? That’s when PE kicked in for me.

I can't track it, man..
I've used sparsely through months and it's been like 2 years ago the last time I've used it.
What could be the link between the two?

thanks for your view, man!

What do you mean by " with what have I replaced it "? those habits? I've got profundly into endurance sports, running and cycling, and just started with bodybuilding, mostly calisthenics (it's been 3 months), do you think I need to lower/cut off the endurance exercises?

I don't usually track what I eat, will do it! but on times that I had it tracked on chronometer.com, I was likely under the calorie goal for the day.

My diet is pretty much cooked legumes/grains, fruits, much dairy(milk and cheese), carbs (more simple than complex, breads etc.), eggs and currently reintroducing meat on my daily diet, which type of meat is recommended?

"..Maybe also consider supplemental thyroid in some form. Things such as magnesium, vitamin C, taurine and MSM might also be worth a shot for your situation, as they tend to be helpful with anxiety and hair issue symptoms.."
I've got liposomal vitamin C and Magnesium Chloride, are they ok to use?
Will look on the other ones!
I want to try the natural homeostatic way, wouldn't like to take hormones for now.. but what could it do for me?
Can't stand Caffeine man! it's just crazy, 1,5 cups of coffee and I feel wired/over the rooftop anxious like if was on bad coke

It's great to hear it, man :)
I hope you all the very best, kind soul fellas.
I just can't afford it now.. Brazilian currency is very low, I belive it could get a bit better on the next year, I'm hoping!
In the meantime I wanted to find routes that would not hurt myself more/put me more out of balance, as I'm feeling pretty good these days.
but really want to feel optimal!

For meat, lamb I like a lot. Try to make sure the meat you buy is antibiotic free, organic.

Fish, chicken, steak, bison, turkey- I do think you need to start upping protein intake. @Brute made a lot of sense up there.

I think someone like you could fix your healTh issues with diet and exercise no doubt.

I'm in the same boat as far as PE and anxiety
My cerruluplasmin is on the low side, prolactin was high when I measured. Check out my thread to see if there are more similarities.

what could be raising the Prolactin level?

@ballheadbuddha: Whoops, after reading my post again I realized it actually does sound like I'm judging what you are doing. I actually just wanted to know how you are spending your time. Yeah, too much endurance sports definitely doesn't help masculinity and often causes prolactin to go up as well. With running you mean jogging I guess, not sprinting? Jogging definitely shouldn't be overdone, specifically as a man. Just take a look at marathon runners: Not exactly the most masculine looking people around. A sprinter's body looks a lot healthier. Legumes shouldn't be a staple IMO as they're anti-thyroid. Rest of diet sounds fine to me.

If your current magnesium supplement doesn't cause any issues you can stay on it I guess. I personally drink Donat Mg. Since many people report positives from glycine, magnesium glycinate could be killing 2 birds with 1 stone, but ultimately it comes down to tolerability.

You could try out Vitamin B6, more specifically P5p, to combat prolactin levels. Drugs such as cabergoline also work, but I'd first try to lower them through other means.

As for caffeine, have you also tried things other than coffee? Tea, Coke (as in Cola) or energy drinks for example?

It is ok, man
I didn't take it as if you were judging me
Usually jogging for like 7-10km, it's not much, compared to how much I used to do with cycling.
I can definitely see high prolactin symptoms (longer refractory period, high body hair growth?* etc.), will look into sprinting, they look way healthier for sure.
I have supplemented with Magnesium Bisglycinate in the past, and got a lot calmer/less anxiety on it, will try it out again.
What do you think about a whole B-complex supplementation?
Never tried high caffeinated teas, I mean, I've drank it in the past, but didn't stick with to see the whole range of effects. I have some good quality black-tea, will give it a try and see. I don't consume any type of soda and never tried energy drinks.
What does caffeine intolerance could mean?

You dont even know how disciplined you are. It takes a lot of effort to get to where you are and im sure you will succeed in becoming even better.

Im pretty sure you have some kind of pelvic imbalance due to continuous quenching to achieve an orgasm.

We all, man.
I've read a bit about it, and it's probably an issue in my case, as I have to use my PC-muscle several times to get the last urine out of my bladder..

Cycling may have caused issues as well. Used to be an avid cyclist now have PE. Never an issue before that.
