Is this normal?

    I used to masturbate 4-5 times a day, and that seemed to have an effect upon my penis size. When I refrain for a week or so, it measures at 6.2 inches- fairly average. But I am also a grower. When I'm flaccid, it's like 2 inches long. The flaccid state really stresses me out. I'm also grossly overweight, which doesn't help much. But I'm on a diet now.
    Anyhow, I've stopped for 4 days now, and am experiencing really weird symptoms:
    My flaccid length is even smaller, and it has become really hard. It feels so rubbery to touch, and it;s hard to urinate now.
    I'm even more depressed about my penis size.
    I find it harder to sleep, until 6 in the morning.
    I tend to get really aroused now.
    I just can't get an erection.

    As mentioned, I am really stressed and anxious, which probably has something to do with it.

    The exact same thing happens to me when I'm stressed out, which is damn near always. All those symptoms sound like the "flatline" experience that goes along with NoFap, it lasts a different amount of time for each person, but it isn't permanent.

    Your penis is fine - seriously. You do not need the doctor. You just need patience. As Johnny said this is part of a temporary withdrawal symptom. Nothing is wrong and everything will return to normal within the next 1-2 weeks. For your own sake, don't obsess about it and stop touching it to see what it feels like. Just be grateful that you are not erected most of the time while trying not to masturbate - then you really would have a problem! Chill, dude! :)

    Is the shrinking of my penis and its hard texture a common symptom? I appreciate the fact that it varies from person to person, but it is normal, right?

    It's normal for me and I think it happens to others as well when they're stressed. I have a ridiculous amount of anxiety so I may not be a good example. I'd like to see more people posting in this thread, this is a source of concern for the two of us and I'm sure many others...
