    I've left porn since April but keep relapsing with MO, yet I'm seeing no progress? I'm a perfectly healthy 22 year old and have decided to get rid of PMO from now on fully. But I'm scared something else is wrong with me as my penis is completely dead. Why is this happening? Is MO essential to get rid of during recovery?

  2. There is nothing wrong with you. My situation is exactly the same, I was porn free for 60 days before abstaining from MO as well. I had the dead dick experience and it is not great, but it gets better.

    In my opinion, MO does harm progress. You should quit.

    You have to stop MO b/c it is inherently tied to P. Go sober bro.

    Did you ever experiment not doing Porn but sticking with MO, and then gave them both up later? Did you spot the difference?

    This has not worked as I am a sex addict who has been Ming, PMOing and Oing since adolescence.

    Any recovery I've made always requires me to quit porn and masturbation completely. I also abstain from O unless during sex and I never ”force” it via masturbating or fantasizing during sex.

    No P, no M and no O (unless during sex and by your partner).

    It is the Way.

    Just accept the fact that you should stop masturbating
     
  8. First 7 days felt normal, before starting I was just masturbating out of habit to psubs. Around day 10 I found NoFap and things started going to shit after day 14, because I entered flatline. No libido, dead dick, massive mood swings, no motivation. I pushed through and right now, around day 30, am feeling improvements. Erections are coming back and feel pleasurable, not stiff like a wooden stick on my crotch. I see women in a more realistic light, I don't necessarily want to have sex with them and if I do, I don't expect the body standards of porn, I like the bodies of real women now. I overall feel more confident and capable of pursuing casual relationships, something I couldn't do before.

    Quit MO.

    I think what worries me the most is I had a 5 day streak, then an 8 day streak and then a 13 day streak where I only MO'd once or twice between each streak (well my last one I MO'd 4 times in a day), but all of this effort and my penis is still flat as ever, why can't I just get it up for crying out loud. I'm just so worried all of this is for nothing and I'm stuck like this for good.

  12. You're waaaay overthinking this. Just stop masturbating, dude. That's all you have to do.
