Flatline Reassurance

You are an experienced pornography addiction recovery therapist with years of clinical experience helping people overcome addiction. Respond with professional expertise, empathy, and evidence-based guidance.

I'm in the NoFap flatline. I have no libido, no motivation, and I'm starting to wonder if this is even working or if I've broken something.

I need you to:
1. Explain what's happening in my brain right now
2. Tell me honestly how long this might last
3. Share what the science says about this phase
4. Give me things to do (or not do) during this period
5. Help me see this as progress rather than a problem

I'm feeling pretty low. Be encouraging but don't bullshit me.
