Years of fapping whilst having no erection. Is this common with some of you?

    Hi all,

    So for years I have struggled with PMO but recently I became concerned by the fact I would PMO at least 5-6 times a day average and I would even M without an erection. Is this common for some of you? I would still get urges without the supposed "horniness" or penile arousal. I even O without one. Sometimes the P would not be another to get an erection and I found that with TS or genres that I had no 'normal' sexual desire for would stimulate the creation or rise of an erection. I seriously hope that fapping without an erection isn't just a problem I experience. I know of PIED, but I thought that was generally an issue when it came to real life sex, not necessarily a case that would occur during PMO. Any advice or personal testimonies on this issue would be great.

    If you’re going outside of what you consider normal, what you are doing is called escalation. You may never do any of those sex acts IRL, but you are programming yourself to become aroused to that stimulus. You’ve become desensitized by what you consider normal and you’re getting into newer things to get that kick. Please stop while you’re ahead. The more you watch, the worse it will get.

    i have experienced stop what you are doing now and start hard mode/monk mode immediately it is the only way to repair the immense damage you have done to your brain.

    Currently on Day 8. The urges are so strong its hard to take my mind off things...I have been watching movies and playing games but they don't really fill that dopamine void. I think PMO has drained my dopamine entirely :(

    I’m not a medical professional, but I highly doubt that is the case. As previously mentioned, your brain is conditioned to those stimuli and your tolerance is boosted. You’re in the beginning phases of your dopamine receptors repairing themselves and finding pleasure in things that aren’t PMO.

    From a fellow Day 8.
