Day 71 Update - 36 years old w/ PIED - **POSSIBLE TRIGGERS**

Today marks Day 71 of my noFap journey. I honestly didn't think I could EVER make it to 71 days but here I am. I started because I had severe PIED, a completely flaccid dead penis caused by 8 years of fapping everyday. Healing has been an extremely slow process but I believe I am inching towards normality.

This post is only about days 59 to 71. If you want to read more about my journey, here is my last update on Day 59: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/day-59-need-encouragement-pied-flatline.129406/

Day 59 to 67 - Flatline continues with random boners throughout the day. They havent been rock solid and at best I get 80% firmness. Having said that, my penis felt better and looked bigger than it has. I have started thinking less about noFap now, it has almost become a lifestyle. Fapping is not an option. I rarely have any urges to watch porn and even when I do its fairly easy to get my mind off of it. I really really want to have sex tho. (I have had sex twice in the last 71 days, once on day 40 and once on day 53). Two girls waiting in the wings for me but the fear of ED is still strong.

Day 67 to 71 - I have been waking up with really good morning wood the last three days which has been encouraging. Besides that I go in and out of flatline. I met a girl last night and we ended up making out towards the end of our date, while kissing her I got a 70% boner which was a little disappointing. I was hoping for a harder erection and sex but I stopped myself to avoid any embarrassment. In the past (before I got ED), my penis would be rock hard and ready to go, I'm not getting there yet. Another thing I have noticed is my inability to stay erect for long. I lose erections pretty quickly if I stop thinking about anything sexual.

Question: Do any of you avoid getting too intimate with a woman or avoid sex because of the fear of ED? How do you cope with that? Any advice would be very beneficial.

 

I entered flatline right when i stopped watching porn and has been there pretty much throughout nofap. ED kicked about 2 years ago but i would watch porn to get an erection and try to feel like a man.

I have good news tho

 

So i just got back home from meeting this girl ive been talking to and I WAS ABLE TO PERFORM!!! Had some great sex. No ED, no DE, in fact i had to stop her about 5 times otherwise i wouldve busted within the first minute. My erection was firm, at 95% i would say. I was super worried on my way to see her but really wanted to test my progress since ive been getting morning wood the last three days.

I dont think i am 100% cured yet but i feel like its getting there. For all of those with PIED, read my posts. I hope it can motivate you. i had severe PIED, DE, an a very flaccid dead dick. I have struggled, but overcome (almost) something i didnt think i would ever overcome. 71 days ago i wouldnt have thought this in my wildest dream. Feeling great right now but lets see what happens over the next few days/weeks.

 

I apologize, that didnt even cross my mind. I have been detailed and descriptive only to help other guys in a similar situation, not to brag or worse, make anybody relapse. Will keep this in mind when posting in the future.

 

Correct. No masturbation, no porn, no touching the goods at all. I had sex three times tho, once on day 40, day 59 and day 71. The first two times, i barely got going. My PIED was pretty bad. I dont think I would recover from ED if i didnt stop everything.
