Hello everyone. I'm a 28 year old man from Belgium.
I've been suffering from porn induced ED for a couple of years now. I can't say how many exactly, because I have trouble distinguishing between anxiety related issues and porn related issues with all the occurrences in the past. I used to have no trouble at all achieving an erection, but I have always had a problem with achieving an orgasm with a partner.
I only became aware that I had a real problem, when I tried to have sex with my latest girlfriend. With all the other sexual partners I have had, I always had trouble achieving an orgasm. I never really thought about it, because I was able to have sex in quite a normal way, but recently the problem evolved into full ED. I would get an erection, and lose it midway intercourse. One time, I couldn't even keep an erection for five minutes.
Nothing I tried (Cialis, Saldonafil, Viagra) had any effect. I would always lose the erection.
I went to see a urologist, who assured me there were no physical problems. He called it performance anxiety. Since I have a lot of confidence issues, this seemed like a logical explanation to me. I went to see a psychologist on a regular basis. This helped my overall feeling and improved my self confidence, but did nothing for my E.D.
After a LOT of searching online, I came upon www.yourbrainonporn.com and something just clicked. I knew that this was the answer. I started watching movies and porn when I was about 15 and during the last year, I have lived completely alone, so I was completely free in my choice of when and where to masturbate. This resulted in a lot of porn in a short period. This one year is undoubtedly what pushed me over the edge and created my E.D. problem.
So after I discovered www.yourbrainonporn.com, I have decided to quit porn from my life completely. I've had a few relapses to be fair, but now I'm at day 12 already. It's not quitting porn that's been hard so far. It's always harder to try and not masturbate. I seem to be getting no urge to look up porn on the web, but I do have great urges to masturbate when I'm alone. Keeping busy helps.
My goal is to make it to at least 90 days. I want to get healthy again, so I can enjoy sexual relationships like it should be enjoyed.
I'll keep you posted of my progress.
