    For those who have or had pied, do you think it was because of complete libido loss where nothing besides porn could make you get up, and in more advanced cases, even porn doesn't arouse you enough to have an erection?

    I don't believe that someone who couldn't get it up with a woman could really get it up alone by himself without porn (with the exception of performance anxiety).
    I also think that those who lose erection with condom, or without, are also prone to losing erection with porn when it's not stimulating enough, that's when manual intervention is needed to get it up.( light version pied and beginning of desensitization )

    So my understanding is that pied a desensitization, but i am confused why some people here claim to get it up without being aroused, i remember in the past each time i got hard intentionally, it was fast to get it up and i get aroused and feel the need to release.

    1. I get from time to time more spontaneous erections - meaning that I don't need much arousal or even touch downstairs to get it up.
    However, usually I need to get aroused enough to get erection. Sometimes I will not get erection even if aroused but thats when I have stress or slept badly for several nights. This is completely with real partner, not with porn.

    2. I never feel that I need to masturbate/I don't get erection by myself. Lets say max once a month I get erection by myself, but that may be because I have regular sex with my woman so I don't feel that desire. But usually I have no problems to get it up with her.

    3. This is Interesting. Porn gives me dopamine and aroused feeling (heart rate increases, precum, body feels good, etc..) BUT I no longer get erections. I may get hard for seconds max OR just get 50% hard but thats it. I cant even PMO if I wanted. But I don't even want so that doesnt matter. Real woman get it up most of the time, but I think its normal our body is not always up for sex.

    4. My Libido changes a lot. I have days when its very active but then days where its completely shut down.

    5. Morning erections are there if I sleep enough or I wake during REM sleep. Otherwise not. And erections change between 50-100%.

    Ive been porn free this year with regular peeks for porn so I cant say I am fully recovered. Flatline symptoms are mostly gone. I do still get bad days but overally feeling ok and balanced.

    Will write more thoughts if anything comes up.
