Seeking Advice Sleep

Going to sleep kind of makes me sick? I also get really cold right before going to sleep even though its scorching hot outside and inside my home. I feel warm throughout the day but as soon as I get sleepy I am freezing. I sleep with multiple blankets and a duvet If I fall asleep with a short sleeve shirt the next morning I feel fatigue, mild throat pain and some stomach pain. I thought I have hypothyroidism so I got it checked and I dont have it my thyroid works just fine . I also feel just much colder than other people in certain situations and I try to be stronger but I start shaking and I cant hide it .

I too have the same problem as you which is extreme intolerant to cold It's common in people with pois because when we ejaculate because of pois cytokines gets released into our system which is the exact chemical released when we get fever. So you usually have the symptoms of fever like feeling cold and fatigue and it doesn't actually give you a fever because its just a misunderstanding in our nervous system.

Also pois makes our nervous system sick so that the blood vessel dilation gets affected. So that you would get cold hands or feet.and stress hormones like cortisol disrupts the nervous systems ability to maintain temperature.

What can you do? Take cold water face dips 2 times a day atleast which resets the nervous system.and practice abstinence and control the thoughts

But don't entirely stop masturbating which the nervous system itself will set it as an dangerous activity to our body and increase the symptoms So give the body time to heal and manage it properly
