    I can’t figure out what’s going on with me, i was wondering if anybody else out there has had the same or similar experiences.
    -I wake up with healthy rock solid erections, most mornings..except on days when i’m feeling a little down or anxious
    -I can get rock hard erections to sexual thoughts.
    -Sometimes my libido is through the roof, except for days that i’m anxious and feeling low.
    Overall my mood and confidence is pretty good.
    Now the problem is, when the time comes for PMO or MO (without porn) my penis doesn’t respond, what i mean by that is not only does it stay flaccid, it shrivels up like i just got out of freezing water, to the point where even stroking it can get difficult and not pleasurable, since it’s so shriveled up.
    -The good news is that i know the problem is not physical, since i canachieve a healthy erections when not attempting PMOing or MO then it happens naturally.
    -I was wondering if there are people out there who have had a similar experiences, and how did you overcome it?
    -Currently i’m on a 2 week streak Hardmode No PMO, and about to see a psychologist for CBT

    Thank you to all whoever took thetime to read and respond to my post, and good luck on your goals and challenge.

    I´d say it is only a flatline, don´t worry. It will pass :)

    You think so? The reason i’m asking is because, it started happening this last month which i was regularly masturbating, can you go into flatline while PMOing? Could it be my mind and body is craving actual sex, and my mind is just not responding to the stimuli of the porn? Even though i find the scenes very arousing.
     
  4. I'm having trouble working out what the problem is here. When you say, "When it comes time for PMO," like it's a natural, immutable rhythm or something. It's not - it's a perversion you're here to eliminate from your life. You should be thanking God for giving your penis more brains than most people have in their heads.

  5. You're definitely not the only one. I've been waking up with morning wood practically every day ever since I started NoFap a few days ago. I just try my best to ignore it and focus on my goals. Might also be my body being so used to masturbating shortly after waking up. Give your body some time to adjust.

    If it is flat-line that's not necessarily a bad thing, it's a sign of your body recovering from the abuse of PMO.

    Absolutely agree, Lord knows i’m weak, but what makes me feel better is that i’m not in this battle by myself, he’s with me.

    Idk what it is, but one thing is for sure, i’m done with PMO or MO...next time i ejaculate is when i’m with a woman or nocturnal emission...i’m sick of masturbating like a loser, the act in itself is foolish and not natural. The penis is made for a vagina, not our palms.

    Hi brother,
    Thats a flatline. Ive had that happen before. In my experience the longer you go the better. Juat be careful when you team up with a partner. Itll ne a rush to your brain and youll need to pace yourself. Find youraelf a poaitive paetner who enjoys healthy sex and you two quarantine it up - slowly. An healthy. Your stride will come back. When at that stage its important toe at least that my mind and heart are in alignment. Youll find your passion for your partner an inferno. Tame the flames and savor it wisely. This along with a healthy lifestyle can be priceleas and just the antidote. You got this!

    Thank you for posting brother, how long did it take you to recover from it? i’m currently 2 and half weeks in or something, i stopped counting. I plan on to go for life without masturbating again. My plan is to never masturbate, and get married and make love to my wife, and have a healthy sex life. Next up is quitting smoking, got to take it one day at a time, other than that my lifestyle is healthy...no illegal or prescription drugs..no alcohol...no junk food...very little sugar, if any. The funny thing is just this morning for the first time i woke up without an erection...so maybe the flatline is starting, which i guess is a good thing, but who cares i’m done no more masturbating i’m done!!! For life. Thanks again for replying God bless!!

    From what i’ve heard no.. but then again i’m nor a licensed practitioner, not a medical professional, so definitely not qualified to give you a direct answer. Make an appointment with a urologist or a general practitioner, they’ll be able to answer all your questions.

    You know, I haven't experienced that exact thing... But I have noticed that there is almost an extra mental barrier against my urges. It's like I am in more control. I only have an urge if I allow these thoughts to pass. My sexual thoughts ask 'permission' if you will. Today I am not having any urges at all. I think your body is being reprogrammed also. Like you know that you won't be getting the full PMO experience, and your 'porn demons' are repulsed by this. hahaha Good luck!
