Does anyone have it where it is much harder to get / maintain an erection.standing up? Is that a symptom of pied ?  Anyone here have this issue solved by their reboot?

Yes, before I rebooted it was very difficult to maintain an erection standing up. No longer an issue at all. Yes it is a symptom of PIED. Yes many guys have solved their issue with the reboot.

Hope that helps.

Thx so much,! Gives me relief to hear that. I have been very anxious today. I want a good sex life again. I know I need to be patient though. I would be interested in anyone elses success stories w the reboot resolving their ed standing up.

30 days in hard mode. Trying to stay positive. Not much in terms of progress yet.

Gabe, in other words, I can get a much better erection lying down. When I stand up though much more difficult and it goes away quockly. This was your problem too ? and a problem of other guys suffering from pied?

Have the same problem too while rebooting. would get a morning erection sometime and goes away when i stand up. Glad i read this thread because i was starting to think it may be some physical issue with blood flow or something. Compared to no erections at all previously, this is at least progress

Gambit, I'm on day 24, so we are close in the journey. Hang in there buddy! Before reboot, I would lose my erection really fast if I changed position too much, but especially standing up. I think this is pretty normal for PIED. However, from what I understand, at our stage in the process, we really shouldn't be worrying about erections or even having them. The point is to let your body rest from touch and all sex thoughts so that the brain can start to renew itself and reorient itself towards something other than porn or porn thoughts. So, if youre rubbing yourself until you get a boner and then standing up to see if it stays hard or not, I think you are probably just torturing yourself. Gentlemen, correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't he just be letting his dick lay quiet for a few more weeks? I'd like the answer too (I'm no expert, but I have been reading all about this process).

My process has been to basically banish all triggers and thoughts about sex. I don't even grab my dick reflexively when I sleep or watch TV or anything. If I get morning wood, that is totally on it's own. I had one wet dream that happened when I was asleep. I'm hoping this all comes back naturally and the more I think about it and get anxious, the harder it is. Thoughts?

I am pretty similar to you. On my back I can manage sex ok.akthough the viagra makes it harder. When I.attempt me on top.or doggy my erection goes away pretty quickly.

From what I have read I think you have a good approach. Maybe my testing in the morning is not productive. Maybe I should also stay off fb and dating sites since sometimes a sexy pic pops up. Most of my reboot I have been in flatline so.its been easier but my libido was higher today and I couldnt stop thinking about sex w an ex gf but did my.best to think bout something else. On top of all.this I have a hottie coming over this weekend but I am going to stay true to this process and not pop.a viagra to bang her even though there is nothing I want more ha...I think.I.am going to tell her I am doing this zen cleansing thing and no mo or sex for a couple months which is kinda true. If she is still dating me after ill tell her the full story.
Lets hope our sex life is great in 2015!

Out of curiosity, how old are you and how long have you had pied ?
 
I am in the same boat as you guys, am about a month into reboot and haven't really been testing often but let's keep one another updated on this. I think it's the main reason I can't perform doggy either

I did one month of soft mode (no porn but some mo) and now on day 40 of hardmode. I tested earlier and my standing up erection was a little bit stronger . So hopefully the process is working! Thought id report in. Ugh. Hottie coming over tomorrow. Going to stay true to the process though, wana beat this thing after be plagued by.pied for years.
 
Hi guys, thought I'd update you on my personal progress on this matter.

So I am around 2 months into my reboot, PM free, but 2 Os with partner. And I have been plagued by sexual dreams and even dreams where I relapse, had one just today but woke up before it got too far. Anyway, this morning I kept getting MW very easily and they were there every time I woke up, and even though MW haven't really been issues for me I decided to get up and test my erection standing up, the results seemed quite positive in that the rate it was going down was much slower and it was maintaining stiffness for longer. I tried this with my pants lowered, I think in the past with pants on I didn't see much difference.

I hope this is a good sign and works in my favour when things really count.
Keep going bros  ;D

I still do not have strong erections, but I have my strongest erections "laid out," so either supine or standing.  However, if I curl up in some way my erection strength dramatically falls below the already weak erections I have.
 
Guys - whats the update on standing erections. Please chime in. Have you resolved your issue with a reboot? This is an old thread, but really hope to hear from you. I have the exact same problem. I am very depressed.

Yes, I have the same problem. Erections hard enough for sex are only possibly laying down. Standing up or even sitting is out of the question.

Trying to cure PIED, only my 3rd day in. Although I have been able to reduce my daily masturbation counts.

Any tips for sustaining my reboot? Really want to get to at least 30 days. I had a 7 day streak in Dec 2022 and my erections were HARD!
