    Addicted for about 10 years, didn't start having sex until 3 years ago.

    Diet is regular, no alcohol or junk food, only drink coffee twice a day, don't smoke and exercise moderately.

    Confidence is fine, at times I can have sex but I never have morning wood.
    Seen alot of people getting morning wood after a few months but im about 6 months in now.
     
  4. ten years is a long time, it might take up to a year before your completely fixed

    I probably never had morning wood in all my life, at least not a super strong one.

    Almost at 6 months, and i had morning wood only a few times.

    For compensating, yesterday night i had super strong sexual fantasies, and my d was hard and almost hurting and was not getting down. Had an amazing sex dream also...

    In my case morning wood was coming and going but never to become what people call morning steel. My P addiction was not bad but i MOed for like 15 years. My recovery is taking a while now with over 9 months and occasional relapse (more like one-off rather than a real relapse + occasional sex). Despite these relapses, morning woods is becoming more frequent and my recent morning wood has become encouraging.

    Makes me wonder if mine actually has anything to do with porn or I have another issue altogether...

    That is what I thought for a long time about myself and was considering going to see a doctor but eventually did not end up seeing him. The thing is, you are probably amazed now with how much PMO affects you in many ways.

    In my case, I am finally sensing what actual libido is and not craving for orgasm. In my case, actual libido is when I see a beautiful woman and immediately get things going on in my body (heart, testicles and gut). When I was getting cravings, I only wanted to get an orgasm. As far as morning wood, it is the last thing that will come back and probably right after libido recovers (these two things are the last that recovered in my case). Just think about it, people need about 1-1.5 years to recover. It seems that I am close to full recovery not and things have vastly improved in many aspect. I cannot tell you what is your case for sure, but I doubt you have any real issue other than needing a proper reboot.

    Mine lately has been coming back with a vengance even though I have slipped over the past couple weeks; I'm not sure if I should be thankful or worried!

    How long have you been on nofap so far? For me it is like my real Libido is like zero now, if not below zero!
    I too wonder if it is all about nofap withdrawals symptoms or there is something wrong in there! I feel now Uneasy and down and all I have is craving for p or m, however I can easily manage it.

    How long has it taken to see these results?
     
  16. From what I've read here and elsewhere the most common answer to these questions is nine months (also there are cases where the guy couldn't get fully hard until 2 years of abstinence). I think the standard challenge shouldn't be 90 days but more like 200.
     
  17. It's different for everyone. Some guys rarely never not get a stiff when they wake up and some rarely have them at all.

    Personally speaking I notice a lot more morning wood action after nailing about a week of no PMO. Sometimes I get them the hardest they can get when I wake up, and others I start having an erection shortly after walking up.

    As I've said it's different for everyone. I need a week to get morning wood again and for the next guy he could take months. If it is really that much of an issue you can read up on this or if you think It's health related you can ask your doctor.

    Honestly I did great for about a month and a half, then this last 3 weeks or so I've really been messing up a lot.

    I'm hoping I havent just completely lost all my progress because the flatline was hard to deal with and I really dont want another one. But yeah as it is now I've been having very strong morning wood the past few days. Could be more due to hormones from being back in the gym and such.

    Just based on what most are saying, mine isn't due to no pmo.
    It's been 219 days for myself, starting getting morning wood but then dissappeared again about 2 months ago.
    I still struggle to get hard with my girlfriend and I cannot get one on my own.
    This no longer looks like PIED to me.

    What do you think that you have then? Morning wood comes and goes during PIED.
