    I am a 34 year old man I started watching porn and masturbating to it at 9years old.I had sexual relationship with a very few ladies as I don't get turned on by their nakedness so the few who I was able to have sex with by luck what I mean by luck is that where my dick got erect and didn't go flaccid before penetration I kept them for a while.What used to give me hard rock dick was porn,watching porn was everything for me no anxiety no apprehension I get hard at the drop of a hat but when it comes to real women I panic no matter how hard they dry to get me turned on would will prove abortive.When I realized porn was the major problem I cultivated the habit of staying away from it.This year since April hitherto I have not watched porn nor masturbate although I have had moments which I woke up in the morning sometimes at midnight to discover my boxers pant getting soaked up in semen discharge.However,about two months ago now no more wet dreams I have also observed advancement in the way I interact with people, facing people with all boldness and other stuff I never thought I could do before that gives me joy now but the only issue that is bugging me right now is I don't know if my libido is still active sometimes it feels like I have lost it.I'm scared if I get into a relationship the old problem might occur again

    I believe this condition is called flatline. It will get better and just stay away from pmo and it’ll only get better trust the process. How long have you been pmo free?

    And I believe you have been on pmo since you were 9 so that’s years and years of abuse to your brain. Naturally your reboot might take longer because of the duration. I believe you are in flatline right now, but it gets better. There will be times you’ll want to test your penis but don’t. It’s just going to take your brain some time to get back to normal. This is classic pied.

    Congrats on staying sober for so long, man! Don't worry about libido....it will come back. Please don't have any crazy ideas like testing it with PMO peeking. Don't go down that rabbit hole, you can do better!!!

    Congratulations, you are healing. And, wet dreams are never a problem like intentional PMO abuse. Wet dreams are part and parcel to a well-healed male biology acting naturally. It's a very positive sign, actually. Don't be at war with it - such tension may only lead to repressed dysfunction of other sorts.

    Stay the course bro!! I know it sucks!! When I lost my last streak I was disappointed with myself, but I kept going... I'm also going to force myself to exercise more. 15 min each night. I hear that's the only thing that helps (apart from time) because it provides a healthy kind of dopamine.

    Wet dreams are a sign of recovery. I had my first wet dream in my life after I started with nofap. I’ve had a couple of more ever since but it’s only a sign of good sexual health

    What would you guys say is a sign that someone will heal instead of never truly getting back to the way things were before? I know it has been mentioned that extreme use for many years can have more or less a permanent affect. What are your thoughts?

    You have gone so far with good pace... Why to give up now.... Don't test it with porn... And what is the use of libido ic it works only for porn... So have faith in process. I have read for some people flatline last longer. Right now I m in flatline with zero or fully flaccid penis... But, I generally get urges by the end of 3rd week.

    Have faith In process. You will check with real sex that u have improved a lot... Beat luck buddy

  20. That is definitely my biggest fear for getting into a relationship too. PIED really is the worse part of the porn addiction side effect.
