Hi all, I've been masturbating since i was 13 and now i'm 25 years old. I quit masturbating when i tried to have blowjob and couldn't cum as i felt like i wanted something harder than a mouth to please me. I didn't masturbate for around 50 days nor watched any kind of porn. The thing is i can feel something like a pinch in the head of my penis and it's there all the time. This is really making me uncomfortable and not focused at all during my day at work or even at home. Apart from the fear of not being able to cum with normal sex stuff with a real partner or that half of my penis is numb this feeling makes it even worse. The thing is i could read a lot of threads here about how things completely change when u quit and ur body goes back to normal but what i feel is different. This pinch is bothering me like hell and sometimes it's so strong so i've read on the internet about it and found that it might be something called (Prostate congestion) due to not emptying my prostate by cumming. This pinch in the head of the penis comes with a little pain in the end of the back. One of the solutions i've read on the internet that u need to masturbate every few days to empty your prostate and avoid this from happening to you. I'm afraid if i masturbated again i would ruin my brain again as my intention is making my brain forget what masturbating means at all after all these years to enjoy normal sex. Please help me and tell me if quitting masturbating causes Prostate congestion and what should i do about it? And really guys do u think quitting masturbation will fix any sexual problem i have? I mean has anyone experienced not being able to cum and then he got back normal after quitting?
But my body is not used to have wet dreams as i masturbated instead of having normal wet dreams for years.
i know, i went thru that. I don't wanna give you any medical advice but in my case it wasnt nothing dangerous and i kept going on my streak.
I actually scheduled a doctor appointment for tomorrow. I left home early today from work because i couldn't handle the feeling. I will go to the doctor tomorrow and explain it all.. i hope that it has nothing to do with my prostate as i want to get rid of any harmful effects caused by masturbating. I don't care to retain my sperms or anything i know i can have wet dreams and it's okay but the habit of masturbating and porn is the one i want it eliminated from my mind. I wish just to be normal again if that was possible after years of consuming my penis. Do u think it's possible? I'm on my way up to 50 days no and i don't think of porn at all and not struggling with the idea of masturbating. I just would hate if i physically damaged anything.
See a medical doctor for medical advice. Continue your noPMO journey unless your doctor gives you clear, sound reasons for not doing so. Generally speaking, your body will heal itself from any damages caused by PMO if you allow your body and your mind the time they need for healing. To make it as far as you've done in your current journey, you've found some things that work well for you. Continue doing those things. One day at a time is how we all succeed.
I've seen a doctor today.. he wanted me to do few analysis and told me that i have nothing to worry about. This really calmed my nurves but i will do the analysis tomorrow and see where that will lead us. I DON'T WANT ANY PORN OR MASTURBATION AGAIN. I need to live a natural life and enjoy a real partner. I have a GF who knows nothing but that i can't ejaculate when she tries to give me blowjob. I want this to end really it irritates me. If physical pain disappears it will be so easy for me to stop thinking of it and enjoy a normal healthy life. I also told the doctor about 50% of my dick is numb. He told me that it's only in my brain but i wasn't convinced. But after all i will no longer masturbate nor watch porn and after im normal again i will write down a very big thread to tell people that i'm normal again thanks to NoFap.
Okay i feel a lot better now.. no pain no pinch no sting and all is good. The thing is that i feel i lost my lust a little bit. I know that's one of the side effects for quitting masturbation but i won't try to speed up the process.. i will let my brain heal and my body to rest as i feel more energetic anyway now. I'm not counting days accurately but i'm sure i'm over 50 days now. Sometimes i get this feeling of wanting to ejaculate but i make myself busy all time. I swear to god i will never masturbate again. I get hard everyday in the morning everytime i wake up and i just go pee and that's it i hope to test my things soon and enjoy real life sex instead of the illusion of porn and masturbating as a way of life.
Check out the glossary on the top of this page for definition of "flat line". It may be in part what you are experiencing as "lost of lust". Not to worry, flatline doesn't last forever. Often your "lust" returns stronger than ever, so be prepared to deal with that if it happens to you. One day at a time is how we all succeed.
