8 months - PIED not cured, even Viagra doesn't help

I'm 28. I started watching porn at the age of 12. I watched really hardcore stuff, almost everyday with long sessions and lots of edging. I started NoFap at the beginning of 2018 with average streaks about 15-20 days, sometimes longer, but not more than a month. I just reached 8 months porn and masturbation free. During this time I only let my girlfriend give me a handjob, but I was completely porn and masturbation free.

Yesterday I did a test with Viagra. I took 50 mg of Sildenafil. I got hard just by kissing and making out. But when I put a condom on and tried to get inside pussy I got soft (from rock hard I went to 70-80% erect). I tried to get it up by hand, but it didn't help...
In the morning today we tired to have sex again with the pill, but the problem was the same. I got hard, put a condom on and when trying to get inside I went too soft to do it. I don't know if the strees took over or what... I thought that Viagra helps maintaining erection even if you stressed. I noticed that with Viagra my erection is much stronger, but still I couldn't maintain it.

Btw I noticed a lot of improvements in those 8 months:

- rock hard morning woods,

- starting getting erection just by kissing or making out (not strong just about 50%, but before NoFap my dick was completely flat while kissing or making out...)

- more energy and motivation

- enjoying life more

But after today I'm starting to wonder if it's really PIED? Or maybe sth else? I did a blood test a few months ago and everything was ok, testosterone was really high, prolactin was low. It shouldn't be an organic problem as I have morning woods and they are strong.

Performance anxiety? But with Viagra everything should be ok I guess.

After this I got really disappointed and I'm not really sure if PIED is my problem... I thought that after 8 months of NoFap I should be cured and have normal and hard erections.

Could you please help me? I'm so disappointed.

sorry bro but are you kidding? this title gave me a headache. we trying to go hard mode for several months to get to that point where we get hard by just kissing. and you say you going back to 70% hard?? this is real success. it will get better by time. why would you write that kind of discouraging title there are many suicidal guys here. continue whatever you are doing and will be cured. at least you can have sex with pills

It sounds like you have pied ...
If you are not making as much progress as you would like then I bet it's because you could be doing so much more to help...

Keto diet, clean clean eating
Fasting
Fitness , exercises stretching yoga
Medation hypnosis , brain work

Just how hard are you going at this pied are you able to throw everything you have at it...
?

I have read that relapsing on porn makes it harder and harder to recover so never watch porn again

Hey man. Great job on making it to 8 mo! You should be proud of yourself. I read somewhere that taking Viagra and other pills actually make it worse. Also how strict have you been about no sort of artificial stimulation? Its best to be as strict as possible including not watching/turning your head away for sexual scenes in movies.

Hi all
I am also suffering from pied. I was stressing out too much and tried to follow good diet with gym. During that time i had girl and tried have sex but couldn’t make it cause if got softer after 2 mins of erection. But this week i took 50mg of sildenafil and really had good sex. Even in the morning i had good erection and made it up to 30 mins of sex without pill. Another day i took another 50 mg and it went good, and in the morning i really had good sex without pill.
just want to ask that i had over come pied or it just happened because of pill. If it is only because of pill then how would get erection in the morning and had it for 30 mins.

Your situation is similar to me from age 14 to 25 hardcore stuff on a daily basis
It been two years now (trying) on average of (7-10) days
Tbh you scared me a little bet 😅 i thought my struggle will be gone by now
But you and i should but more efforts to succeed average should be about (2-3) months

You might have performance anxiety try to relax and meditate before sex 👌 will be helpful

Best of luck 🙏
 
I'm at 9 months. 9.5, actually. Same thing. I have heard it is unusual but it can take up to 3 years.

I never stopped getting morning wood. I just broke my brain's arousal circuit. The physiology down there works just fine. It's my brain I broke from years of porn which got more and more frequent, long, and intense. I completely believe I could be on that track.
 
Hi, man. I think your problem is due to a psychological condition related to your sub-conscience, stress, or something else.
I think it's physiological ... an overconditioning of the brain that got it used to "the easy button", to where normal stimuli are not enough. I don't know if you've seen my latest update, but it appears that I have gotten better, although I undertook a dangerous test to find that out.

If the people who have studied this say it can take up to three years for the physiological re-wiring to occurr (though it normally takes 6-12 months), I have no reason to disbelieve them, especially given my experience.

Hi bro, congratulations on 8 months of no porn. Have you considered if the condoms are actually the correct size and comfortable to wear and that you are wearing it correctly?

Plus some guys can have reaction to types of rubber, so you could try a different type to what you usually buy.

It could, more than likely be stress or phscological thought when wearing protection but try to relax. Viagra always made me hard but I never managed to achieve orgasm when I used it.
Now, I dont even need viagra. Its only been 2 months of no porn and no self touching to arouse the main area.

Hope this helps

One thing - condoms suck, man. You got stimulated by your girl, you put on the condom, and commenced sex. Lost interest after a bit. That can just happen, bro. Sex with condoms isn't terribly arousing for many people. I haven't been able to orgasm from condom sex since my early 20's. This may not be an E.D. issue.
