Inner restlessness and concentration problems

[telaframe]

Hi everyone,

I am 13 days in now and I really alter between super good and super bad. The first week was actually very easy and also the beginning of the second week was still fine. But since 4 days I have extreme concentration problems. The kind where it is not possible to read a few lines of text. I have extreme inner restlessness from time to time and I get light headaches in the afternoon that last until I get to bed.
I started to workout more, which really helps with the restlessness but I don't know what I should do about the concentration problems. In the last days I did not perform anyway near what I am usually capable of at work. I am not sure if I can hold this up for a long time if it affects my job too much. From what I read in this forum I am just on the beginning of the second phase that is reported to be quite hard.
I would really appreciate some tips of people who experienced similar things. Also something to handle the restlessness would be nice because I can't just go to the gym while I am at work.

Cheers

The focusing problem will go away as time goes by, there is reallly nothing you can do about it. As for me, I think the most useful things to do is just don't be too hard on yourself. Accept the fact that you can't concentrate and remind yourself it will all getting better. Don't blame yourself if you did bad in your work. But if your work is a highly intensve job and require a lot of concentration, then maybe this is not the best time for you to quit porn. Do it on some more relaxing period of time then.

Good luck!

Hello justjazz903,

I did not break my streak. I don't see a more relaxing period ahead and I think there will never be the right time so I will keep on trying.
The last days where weekend so I could relax my mind a bit. Today was better than the end of last week but far from good. I managed to keep my self over water with coffee.
And I am still doing a lot of sport I do about three times more exercise than before. It really helps me to get my head clear.
