Day 160!
Thanks for the support yesterday @CloseToToast. That was great.
That little flatline is definitely gone and I'm back to my old self again. My dick is longer and heavier too. If you told this to someone who hasn't had these types of problems before they would probably think you're mad and making it up, but it really is true.
Thanks brother!

So strange how these ebbs and flows happen haha, all part of the natural cycle. I think even without PIED, most guys experience this at some point in their life in different settings
The difference I think is mostly in how we RESPOND. In the internet era, I feel like it's created a tendency to overthink and over-Google on 'what is wrong with me.' And all sorts of people continue piling on to it which makes your fears grow even more. When it reality it's all just really natural stuff. Glad you are back on your feet

After a year of no PMO, I was pleasantly surprised to experience this, too. At first I thought "yeah right", but it's true. I'm still in flatline hell, but I'd rather be here than jerking off to porn.

. But yes, it doesn't help anything. The best thing is to look forward and not think too much about it.
Thanks brother.
May our schlongs become long!
Keep killing it @TryingHarder.
Hey friend @First_step_thousand_miles, I definitely concur. So much of this is in our heads (ha, I just thought about that) "In our heads"
. But yes, it doesn't help anything. The best thing is to look forward and not think too much about it.Thanks brother.
Hell yeah to that. It's most assuredly a pleasant surprise.
May our schlongs become long!
Keep killing it @TryingHarder.

Day 172
I've been going these past few weeks in and out of a flatline. Feeling not sexual often than not, then really horny for a few days with him working well during that time. Yesterday though this "horniness" was a false alarm because I got into bed thinking I'd be good to go but he said "no".
Fuck porn and the false impressions it puts in our minds.
Thank you @First_step_thousand_miles. I'll be getting there real soon.

Morning, mate. Totally get the odd ups and downs with flatlines. It’s annoying, but what you do know is that your flatline rarely lasts more than a day or two, right? So whilst inexplicable, it is just a fact of life. Here’s a question none of us addicts can answer: given that you have officially rebooted, is this how you would be had you not been a compulsive you know what? In other words, is what you’re going through utterly normal actually?
Keep inspiring and moving forwards. Never go back. Cheers man.

Thank you friend. Let's keep on moving!

Good morning @GBS, or more like good afternoon! Yes, this whole thing has always been quite interesting to me, that is the question, what is my true horniness levels? Who really knows? I mean the further we get out is the only way to know for sure, but then we would need quite a few years beyond the first year of recovery to be able to compare the latter years to the first to know that answer. I do know when I was nearly two years out it was different than this and considerably less fluctuating, so that is something to look forward to, and a good reminder that there is no relapse without its consequences.
Thank you friend. Let's keep on moving!
Love
