    Does anyone know how to deal with flatline depression and performance anxiety? I’m about 4-5 days into reboot and I sometimes worry that I may not go back to normal. I’m trying to remain optimistic because I still get erections, but they’re about 70-80% full.

    Any advice helps. Thanks I’m advance.

    You are only 5 days in? The advice is to be patient. I am over 5 months in and I see improvement but I am not complete healed...so...is a long trip.
     
  3. Can you get an erection without manual stimulation?

    Yes. I’m now 8 days in and I get morning wood. When lying down, I can get erect just from fantasizing.

  5. Nice!

    How old are you?
     
  6. Stay away from porn and masturbation .... and orgasm! If you want to heal take months... I don't know how many, don't count them. If you can get an erection without manual stimulation it's a good sign there are chances of healing.

  8. I find my flatline gets worse every time I relapse and binge. Sometimes even after sex I go into a mini flatline.

    I can still get it up, but only like 80%. Maybe i should try hard mode?

    Did you flatline after relapsing, then?

  10. Pretty much straight away!

    After I orgasm to p0rn, my dick shrinks and becomes lifeless and numb :-/

  11. For how long does this phenomenon last before you start feeling better again?

  13. It's normal. In men who aren't PIED is similar.

    They’re semi. I’d say about 80%. Since then I’ve relapsed. For a day or two after, I’ll get morning wood. But after that, hit flatline.
