nerve bar issue?

I have no idea if this is an actual bug or issue or whatever ( nor did I check if someone has posted something similar ) but my nerve bar just decreased by 5 points for no reason while having been stable for months now.

I also don't know if I am writing in the correct section here but please answer anyway?

Natural nerve increases or decreases in increments of 5. Checking from your record, you have been jailed 25 times in the past 8/9 days or so. This may be the reason as to why your nerve bar lowered (from failing drug crimes etc.).

Getting jailed a lot hurts your crime experience, by the looks of your stats that's probably what happened here, you get jailed quite often, essentially decreasing your crime experience thus making your nerve bar drop, this happens in incriments of 5.

If you're looking how to not get jailed, just go to this guide:

the decrease is permanent then?

and i got imprisoned from shoplifting ( don't know if it actually maters )

It isn't permanent, it will go back up over time if you keep doing successful crimes.

Not permanent. You can gain crime experience which will boost your natural nerve bar up 5 again.
