Hi, I'm on day 20 and I have a few questions, but first I'll give some context:
I have PIED but I don't crave P at all, I sometimes get flashbacks but that's it. I discovered I have PIED because I got a new gf a few months ago and after getting my blood analysis done (all right) and overcoming performance anxiety, I still couldn't keep it up. The thing is I could get an erection with my her, but it wouldn't last if touched or if we tried to do anything with it, cum without orgasm would sometimes get out tho even if the erection wasn't 100%
In the first days I had a higher sex drive, but no porn cravings. After 1 week I had my first MW, actually got three of them, until everything stopped. Right now it feels dead but when I pee cum gets out pretty often.
I don't feel like I crave porn, but videos are the only thing that makes it work, I think I watched 1 video a day for 8 years or so tbh and nothing extreme, so maybe that's why I still have erections (with my gf only) but they don't last enough?
Then I think I'm flatlining cause my genitals reduced in size a lot and I feel very low libido but it's not 0, I still feel something, is that normal?
Wouldn't it be too early for a flatline?
A few days ago I was with my gf and even though I wouldn't get aroused at all before, we got naked and cuddled, and eventually, I got an erection and something came out but the erection wasn't even 80% probably...is this normal too?
I also started experiencing SEVERE anxiety a few days ago, my stomach hurt so bad and I couldn't eat or breathe well, is this a normal symptom?
My psychiatrist prescribed me Lorazepam, will it slow down recovery?
Or does it just heal the symptom while I recover?
Btw I am also quitting gaming, so could that be related?
Could gaming slow down my recovery or could quitting it (I'd do it anyway) worsen my symptoms?
Maybe this sounds normal to all of you but I just don't know where I fit between the people on the forum and it's scaring me...
