Hello,

I am 24 years old and have developed a unnatural image of sex due to pornusage from the age of about 14. It made me develop several fetishes which I never had thought of before the use of porn. I haven’t had any great experience of sex until now although I have had 2 long relationships. The last relationship ended due to me being depressed and overworked. In the months after this relationship ended I have had a few dates with a girl and wanted to have sex. I could not relax or get an erection to have sex. It really made me feel down and emberassed. After this experience (which i have had more often in my life) I began to think about my porn usage and luckily found the reboot nation and read the book of Gary Wilson. After this I finally understood what was actually causing my depressed feeling for years.
I am in the Reboot for 83 days now and already feeling a lot better, but I was wondering whats next? I haven’t had the urge to masturbate or anything like it. Should I just wait until it wil naturally return or should I slowly start maturbating again? Would like to here some people’s view on my situation.

Good work, Badass. What's next is a good question, and the answer is a bit different for everyone. Re-introducing masturbation and/or sex with a partner will be tricky at first. This video by Noah Church is food for thought. Of course the main thing is to stay away from any digital arousal (no porn, no porn substitutes, no sexy imagery).
