    I had erectile disfunction with real women, never when masturbating. This happened to me in my late teens and early twenties. I was a PMOer —not with porn streaming like nowadays tho. Never thought PMO had anything to do. So I told myself: this is mental, you need to relax and enjoy the company. Eventually my ED was cured. I haven't had ED for many years. I'm 42 now. I stopped PMO 26 days ago and I haven't experienced any benefit at all so far.

    I tell this story because many people here fix their ED after quitting PMO and they attribute the healing to the abstinence.

    Hey, people with ED, maybe your problem is not caused by PMO. Psychology is very complex. Often you think you found the cause of your problems, but the cause is other. The subconscious is very elusive.

    Another day I will tell you my recent story with insomnia, how misled and wrong I was many times, how I fixed it and how it still comes back from time to time.

    Be careful bringing that opinion here, there are many men who are looking for an easy fix and a reason to return to porn. What you're saying is contradictory and to be honest, inflammatory.

    I don't care what his brain tells him, but I do care what he tells the more fragile guys here.

    This site is about abstaining from porn not promoting it... Maybe you need to find another site to discuss your findings - We are all here to stay away from porn not to be re-introduced to it. Also, I dont think this thread belongs in the rebooting section ??
     
  6. I do not believe you at all

    It's better to raise false expectations, right?

    I guess you prefer to believe the miraculous stories that some people tell around here, instead of facing the truth. Those you believe without any doubt, right?

    Knowing the truth is not confronted with being virtuous. Here I am, abstaining from PMO for 27 days now.

    Maybe you need to find another site with more censorship, so you can avoid facing reality.

    Guess you haven't experienced the menace and misery that PMO has caused some of us. If you knew the damage it can do to the mind, you'd not encourage anyone to PMO.

    First, I agree PMO is damaging, there are MRIs proving it. And I am a victim too. You don't know about my suffering. Of course you may think your burden is the heaviest.
    Second, when you say I encourage PMO, you are lying.

    I can tell you, unequivocally, yes, reboot works. My wife and I just finished making love. With an erection that was actually hard enough to be functional.

    In fact an erection that is better than when I was a teen. Also something that is new to this month, sex with me on top. With the effects of porn, heavy on my brain, I could barely get firm enough to maintain her on top. Everything about me, sexually, was failing. So I took a trip to the doc, just for him to find nothing pathological.

    I felt like an absolute failure and considered putting a gun in my mouth. But then I found Noah and Gabe, I'd like to say on accident, but I don't think it was divinely uninspired.

    Because of nofap I feel like a man, for the first time in my life. And I believe my wife finally feels like a man is holding her during sex.

    So before you try to rob some guy of his hope to be a normal functioning man, maybe consider how your careless words are going to find him.

    I am glad you fixed your ED. That's all I can say. I don't try to rob anything. I just get angry when I see lack of rigour on many claims over here.

    It must be a lie because you don't like it?

    I edited the title because I agree it was inflammatory.

    The best thing you could do is delete the thread before you carelessly cripple the aspiration of a young man. We are each other's hope here, and a release valve for depression and anxiety for failing as men. Your words may not be malicious, but they are no less caustic to these guys. Please delete.

    Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?
