Does fapping cause stress and anxiety? It’s been 3 days of NoFap and I feel anxious about everything. I feel like in everything I do I’ve done something wrong or made the wrong choice.

Yes it does.
It’s the dopamine withdrawal, when we do PMO a lot of dopamine is released in our brain and when we try to get rid of it, we feel this empty feeling like something is missing which might cause anxiety.
It is just temporary though, it fades as you stay clean.

Ok thank you brother. I guess I felt better on my 25 day streak. It’s just been a while I guess I forgot. This is tough. Urges are back, and they’re pretty strong. I’ve got to keep busy. Thank you my friend. Signing off until tomorrow morning. Shutting my phone off until then. Have a good day!

The body reacts to this sudden change of sobriety, those are just symptoms of healing. You will get a better feeling after your streak will get higher and by doing your work.
