Not Sure What’s Going On

Hi all,

Im a 25 y/o male who’s been using porn on an almost daily basis since I was about 10. Started super early. Wasn’t having sex until high school/college where I noticed that I had a problem. Early on when I first started around 18-19 Id get an erection and start having sex but midway through id lose it. I cut back on my porn usage to maybe once every 3-4 days and that changed pretty quickly to where I could have normal sex. I noticed that if I pickup heavy porn usage the problem would come back. I’ve had multiple different partners since then. With a few I’ve taken pills and not used condoms and with that I never have any problems. Recently I’ve noticed that with heavy porn usage I’m starting to have the same problem. I’ve been cutting back and I immediately notice that I’ll get erections throughout the day. I’m getting tired of all of this but I have a partner that I’d like to continue having sex with. I’m scared if I cutout all porn then I’ll be subject to premature ejaculation. I also suffer from sleep apnea. Im not sure if my problem is caused by PIED or another medical condition. Throughout stopping and starting I’ve never experienced a “flatline” but I’d just like this problem to be solved without medication. Do you guys think this is PIED or something else?

Stop the porn for sure....porn acts on the same nerve receptors as drugs or alcohol! Since I gave up porn, 51 days ago, my erections are coming back! I've had sex with my wife instead of the visions of porn when trying to have sex with my wife!

It just happened on day 45 of vacation....we were a little stoned and I was very apprehensive but my girl was persistent and I got hard....that was a surprise....and in the morning I had wood so I tried penetration and I kept hard.....I am still rebooting so we will see! But I am a believer and committed! Porn is very destructive to your body! Keep going and be patient! No matter how long it takes, it's worth the sacrifice!

Hi, When u have sex with the same person and if u're not having a porn consumption there is the coolidge effect applying which makes you be less aroused by your partner gradually when having sex with her over and over (talking about physical sexual excitment leading to ejaculation) so maybe will you be "faster" to release than while on porn for a bit but this should go back to normal after a while + if you cutt off porn you'll experience way more connected sex, she'll feel it in her vagina and by the way you act towards her. Also if being more sensitive make you ejaculate faster than while desensitized by porn (which make sense), since your rate of jerking off will decrease (coz no orgasm with porn) you will be able to go for more rounds of sex and still be hard and feeling it so in the end it's 10000% worth it.

And I don't even talk about all the other effects on life, less anxiety, more motivation, etc.. but this tend to get better with time if u're heavily addicted (which u don't seem if u do it once every 3-4 days, unless it's long sessions of course)


Btw idk if u talked about that with ur gf, and if u didn't coz u know she would feel pretty bad about porn u could just say that u cutt off MO alone and will only orgasm with her, which makes u think that eventually u'll be quicker (i mean talk to her about your worries, this could help you not having the problem at all by not feeling pressured, and if it happens she'll know already so it'll be fine)

Given your age it’s more than likely PIED. But the good news is that you’re not fucked! You’ve gotten onto the problem early and need to rewrite your brain. This is the quickest, safest and 100% foolproof way of fixing yourself. Get to it !
