I have a question about edging. I know the concept of masturbation without ejaculation, going to the point of ejaculation and stopping. For seven days I've adopted a policy of not touching myself unnecessarily. Here is the question, what if I let my girlfriend edge me? Is that just as bad?

Why would you want to do this?

Hi. Edging is very unhelpful, especially during the reboot. It is a way of using artificial sexual stimulation to give yourself a dopamine spike. Part of overcoming the addiction is not just quitting do that to ourselves, but learning to live with lesser dopamine spikes than porn can produce. During the reboot, the answer is pretty easy: avoid spiking your dopamine levels in any way. I have looked over your posts, and though I don't see the phrase "PIED" specifically mentioned, it is pretty clear you have suffered from that. During the reboot, the addiction will talk to you, and it will try and reason with you. That whole thing about finding a woman attractive and wanting to be intimate sound very reasonable, but it could be the addiction trying to talk yourself into a dopamine spike. Since you asked for advice, my advice is to do the hard 90. Kill the addiction cold, now, so that afterward, you can just have sex, normally.

Edging refers to stimulation without coming. Do you not understand that you are going to feel like shit if you have some girl do this? Try not to start these kinds of stupid threads. Also, stay in school.

The problem isn't how you are getting an orgasm but the state of mind when you do. Deep invasive erotic fantasy is the problem. Your gf can masturbate you, you can masturbate you or even a monkey can masturbate you, it will not change the problem which is between the two ears. Fight the cravings, only way.
