Journal Check-In Nofap day 7

I'm on day 7 of NoFap and my emotions have been all over the place. Sometimes I feel angry and irritable for no reason. Small things can annoy me more than usual and it's honestly frustrating. But then there are moments when I suddenly feel a kind of happiness I haven't felt in a long time. It's like experiencing the simple joy of a child again. Little things feel exciting and the world seems a bit more interesting. I don't know if it's related to NoFap or just my mood fluctuating, but the contrast is strange. One moment I'm irritated by everything and the next I'm smiling at the smallest things. Has anyone else experienced this around day 7? Is it normal to feel both extremes during the first few weeks?

I’ve reached day 7 before and my temper does go up and I get mad at the stupidest things. It’s probably because I get super stressed and I’m not able to release it how I usually do so it gets suppressed and turns into anger. I’ve only gotten to 14 days so idk how long it lasts but what I’ve heard is that it’s different for everyone
