Is PIED can be cured with NoFap?

Discussion in 'Porn-Induced Sexual Dysfunctions' started by Coffee69, Oct 18, 2018.

  1. I think it is all random. I had times when I did not consume much porn but my erections were not good enough, then i consumed porn but had no problem with erection, and now it is a bit better. Still very random, but more reliable now that I don't consume porn anymore.

    the less porn you consume, the better it should get, but that is only a part of the story.

    I can say that my healing is pretty stable in term of having longer erection time. You can refer to my 1st thread.

    But I experienced a flatline period even after 6 months of no PMO. At this time I did not feel any urge to have sex.

    Its stable as long as you don’t go back to PMO. Any relapse and you really set back your recovery not by days but weeks or months. The older the dick the longer the heal time and the longer it takes to recover from the relapse.

    Think you never find out, if you never try. I had to find out and try several things before i broke my PE patterns.

    Sorry, I mean my first post on this thread.

    What MarinoBigFan1984 wrote is true. Older man took longer time to heal. Everybody healing time I think is different. For me I can said it took 1 year, but you can feel your body or your erection is getting better with time, as long you do not relapse.

    The penis has its own logic. And that is connected to the mind. I also experience the randomness. Maybe just accept it. And your GF sould also accept it.
    My Ex-wife was great regarding that: she just didnt´t stress me, when it didn´t worked. So in 12 years of marriage I was not able to perform maybe 3 times.
    My new GF stressed from the beginning and I experienced big problems regarding my erection. A nightmare. And I am not sure this is reversible, at least with her. Maybe it just works sexually with some and with some not. Also something one should just accept? Or work together on it...not sure

    If I expected too much when having sex, sometimes my pennis just does not work. I learned to relax more and enjoying the process of having sex.. more connected to your partner , then I can last longer.. but of course this only work for me when I had done the NOFAP. No PMO for over a year now.

    Thanks for sharing your story. This is really a piece of motivation. Did you abstain from sex too during your reboot or did you keep practicing with your wife?

    I used to be unable to get erections when with a naked woman. Happened twice to me. I did a 90 day reboot; no porn or erotic/stimulating media, no stimulation to my dick (even from another person), and obviously no orgasms. Now I have sex twice a week and finish within 15-25 minutes each time. I used to watch sissy P 5 hours a day everyday, and considered transitioning genders because my mind was so clouded. Now I bang my gf all the time and I know I'm manly af. Reboots work guys, you just need to do them the right way, for the right amount of time, and you need to have sex after to "rewire" your brain.

    Great for you, man! What do you mean exactly by doing a reboot the right way? Which practices would be considered as doing it wrongly (apart from PMO, obviously)?

    I set up specific rules by reading success stories, mainly from Your Brain on Porn.
    Firstly, no porn. By no porn I mean I would not go seeking any type of arousing material besides real-life women in front of me (for me this was my gf). What I counted as off limits was porn videos, porn pictures, interactive erotic games/stories, erotica, hentai, engaging in my addicting fetish (which happened to be sP, feminization, and crossdressing), etc. Basically anything that aroused me that wasn't my gf or seeing a hot girl in real life was no go. I didn't even let my gf send me nudes or even sext until my reboot was over. Seeing a lingerie ad or bikini pic on Facebook or something isn't bad, as long as you're not seeking it out.
    Secondly, no masturbation. This extends to "nothing is allowed to stimulate your penis, even a real person". Your brain has neural pathways which are wired to porn and excessive masturbation. Any type of stimulation to your penis allows these pathways to stay fresh. Not stimulating them allows them to decay and die. There are many accounts of men going on 100+ day reboots while having sex or having sex too early in the reboot, and subsequently not being able to cure their PIED. Basically, except for hygiene and underwear, nothing can touch your dick. This does not exclude pleasuring a partner though; I gave my gf lots of oral sex during the reboot, and I really think it helped my brain "rewire" to real women. She just can't do anything for you doing the reboot. Also grinding your dick on people/things is not ok haha. You think people would guess these things, but nope they don't hahe.
    Last, no orgasms. This one is obvious for some, not for a few, and it's undertones are overlooked by many. While most guys assume no M means no O, I've seen some guys trying to meditate to release without M or like going into a trance. Some stimulate themselves anally (which counts as M). These guys get so horny and crazy they find these weird way to O. However, when your body orgasms, your brain remembers the buildup and cause of the orgasm, and when you are presented with similar circumstances/stimulations, your brain remembers and says "Let's get aroused!" For example, if before sex, your gf wears certain underwear, when you see the underwear, you get hard. If you orgasm to methods that aren't sex or masturbation from another person, your body will remember and expect that next time instead of regular sex. Something a lot of guys on this website do is go for a long reboot and do it right, but then don't have sex after. They get really pent-up and horny and end up relapsing to PMO. After your reboot with no orgasms, you must orgasm by another person's doing. Doing this rewires your brain to real people, and must be done consistently in place of PMO to fully complete the process

    Agreed.. I also into feminization.. sissy.. story.. same as you described. Its really weird to think that porn can alter your brain. Although we are not gay.

    Check out the groups "Recovering from Sissy Porn" and "Confused Sexualities". Read a lot of the posts. Many of the guys in these groups have similar experiences to yours but have recovered (like myself for example)

    Any reason why you're only having sex twice a week?

    That's all the time my gf and I can find. We're in college and both work part-time and do a bunch of clubs and study all the time so it's really all we can do. I didn't wanna say "We bang as much as possible!" because some people might get a different number lol. I'd be down for more, we're both pretty horny all the time.
