My severe PIED case

[Lucky]

Hello everyone. I'm so glad I found this community. I started masturbating at a very young age I think around 13-14 years. At first it was all fun and it took me about 8 days after the first time I tried it to masturbate again and after that I did it again 5 days later. Since then it has been a continuous reoccurrence in my life. I've tried to stop this habit more than 3 times now but to no avail. The first time I made the decision to stop it lasted only 7 days and I was dragged back into this life. The second time I was able to abstain for only 5 days and I bounced right back. I remember making the decision to completely stop on my 18th birthday but I couldn't bring myself to do this. I was already addicted.
My parents never really had the best marriage and this planted a notion in my mind to not want to get married coupled with not having many friends and always being alone. I stumbled on porn which became my first addiction b4 graduating into masturbation. Sometimes I masturbated as much as 8 times a day.
I'm 21 now and I met this really beautiful and kind hearted girl who im really into and I care for a lot and the first time we tried getting intimate, I couldn't get a full erection or even maintain it for more than a minute. Although we only agreed to oral sex for now I still feel something is wrong with me as since we started making out and other stuff, I don't get erections as frequently as I used to in the past and even my morning wood is gone. I don't know the cause of this and I also don't find porn attractive anymore. The only time I have an erection is when I'm with her but it's weak and I can't maintain it for long. Pls I need help with this as I really care for her and don't want to loose her. I've also not masturbated now for about a week. Thank you. Looking forward to y'all replies.

Im 22 and im in the same situation. You just have to stop. Im on day 27 right now(almost 4 weeks). My morning wood is also gone and if I get an erection it usually just lasts 1 minute and then it’s gone.

Wow 27 days. I'm so glad I found someone in thesame situation myself. Yes definitely I'm determined to end it this time. Thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate it. And pls I just wanted to ask if you are taking any medication alongside your recovery.?

Yes i do. I take pde5 inhibitors. I know a lot of people say that its not necessary, but im just really paranoid that if i won’t take them my dick will shrink and atrophy because the majority of the time its lifeless even on medication.

Hey guys. Trust me. You’re not permanently broken. It takes a long time to get things back to normal. porn has fucked us all up. I’m 7 months into my reboot. I started really feeling better and noticing a difference in life about 100 days in. The time before that I was emotionally numb, my dick was shriveled up and small, I had zero libido. I actually thought I ruined my sexuality and had become asexual. The cure is so simple but it is a challenge.
1 - no porn. Ever.
2 - repeat step 1

that’s really it guys. I promise. I would recommend zero masturbation for the first stretch of time. Zero orgasm as well. After a month or month and a half….your body will let you know when you’re ready, masturbating (without porn or porn fantasy) seems to be ok. Sex/oral to completion seem to be ok after a period of time as well.

you WILL get better if you stick to it. It takes awhile though. Just don’t give up

good luck. Hopefully this helps.

This pretty much sums it up. Just be patient, it’s not a race and it’s not something you can force. It will happen if you let it happen naturally, that’s a fact.

Were you fucked up (dick was shriveled up and small, had zero libido, thinking you're asexual) before you started your reboot/NoFap streak/abstinence? I masturbated to porn one day and my dick shriveled up and became small, with no libido. Like a flatline before starting NoFap, wtf?

Honestly dude I’m not super sure. The entire year leading up to my reboot was fucked mentally. Spent most of the time unable to fuck my wife With no idea why. I kept a pretty detailed journal after I started. Looks like I felt pretty good from day 14-35. I was having sex too. Hit a massive flatline from 45-100. That’s about the most detail be got though.
When it happened to you, how often were you pmo’ing? I suppose it makes sense it could happen.

Often. I often did it out of sexual urges and habits. I PMO'd since 2006 or so, masturbating even longer than that. I hope that I can cure this.

You can dude. It takes way longer than you’ll want it to. But we spent years washing our minds with smut. Takes awhile to clean it up dude. The trick is to not stop. Just keep going. It’s really that simple. How long ago did you start your reboot?
