    15 years of PMO, 2-3 times fapping and orgasm everyday.

    Now, 45 days of nofap and still When I go out and see beautiful women, I feel nothing, no excitement , My mind says fuck her but my dick remains dead. I m crying,

    The only difference I have seen is "morning wood", and when i physically stimulate my penis , the erection is harder than it used to be.. thats all improvement i have seen so far.


    When I see couples on roads walking hand in hand, I cry, I feel impotent as a man, I am crying while im typing this.
    Please help me !!!!!!!!!! Im ready to do nofap for entire life but please can someone assure me that I can get erections just by looking at a woman? :( :( :( :(:emoji_cry::emoji_cry:

    Lol. It varies. The flatline is the majority of the 90 day minimum reboot, but it's part of the recovery process. Some people get out of it around day 80, some experience it for months. The more you stress over it, the more difficult it becomes, and probably delays your recovery time. Just breathe, take in the situation at hand, and just accept it.

    My life is finished, what is the use of living a life as a man when your dick cant even get erect by looking at a hot woman?
    I dont know how long the flatline will last or what is flatline...I just want to be a MAN again, the man who gets a boner just by standing near a woman, just by touching a woman or just by talking to a woman.

    Are you sure that i will be able to achieve the above things after my flatline is over? Will I have instantaneous erections? :( :( :(

    Your life is far from ruined bro. After the age of say, 18, you don't get erections from looking at clothed women or simply standing next to a woman. That's still an awkward teen phase, that's not what happens to men. You're still a boy. Don't worry.

    The flatline is the period of the reboot where you experience all of the symptoms you're having.

    Focus entirely on yourself! You don't need friends to make you happy, do what makes you happy and friends will come. Again, just do what YOU want to do. Start exercising, pick up a random skill, start drawing, anything to keep you busy and preoccupied. You got this. We've all been in a similar situation. Don't worry. Good things will come.
     
  12. Bro, depression is an illness. If you have been feeling depressed for a long time then it is probably time to seek some professional support. It might as well be withdrawals. I do not know your situation well enough. The flatline can last for a long time. It depends on how addicted you are. For some it takes more than 90 days to reboot properly and get out of the flatline.

  13. If you do more PMO things will get worse.
    Just believe that you are preventing things from getting worse than expecting super powers.

    How can you expect to get results in 45 days if you have done PMO for 15 years. Just think about it use common sense. Secondly what is te use of PMO ? Its just temprory relief. No reward. So even if i was in your place and my PIED would not get cured due to no pmo i would have still not involved into it because i have that much sense that i am being fooled in PMO. Its like Making fun of my desires.


    Secondly, i donno but I want to ask something to people of about 35+ in age.
    How can you have so must need for sex or sexual desires even after being 35+. Its not that i dont like sex or such desire but still i feel that its not worth it.( At least for now i feel so. ) Having sexual drive is normal and i am not objecting that but still after being 35+ people get to know alot about the world and desires. And the wrong path to which the desires may lead. All i mean is that it doesnt makes sense for me.


    Its like
    As a kid we cry for toys
    And as Adult we cry for sex and such desires.
    Whats the use of being such adult.

    I can clearly see that PMO is making the adults dumb ass. And soon it would get banned. I hope so.

    No hard feelings.

    Hey man, I feel your pain. Imagine my surprise when 4 days into reboot it was like my dick didn't work anymore. Like period. You think it's rough not getting it up when you look at hotties, I was literally going down on a girl I've liked for months and nada from the man downstairs. It was fucking mortifying even though she was pretty cool about it. I can't speak to your depression and sadness, if you're really concerned please seek therapy if that's within your means or more targeted support groups and communities. As for friends, you're amongst a good bunch of candidates I'd think, reach out to some of us and you'll find plenty of friends. Chin up dude.

    To your points about masculinity, all I can say is that men are more than their penises. We are more than our sexual prowess. We're more than our attractiveness. What makes a man is the deeds you do, the friends you make, and the lessons you learn as you work toward the best version of you. I think by rebooting you are fixing one aspect of yourself and you're well on your way to your best self. Hang in there!

    Ok, at least you can cry. I think today I died on the inside. I don't care about anything. I don't care that I have PIED. I don't care when and if I will ever recover. I don't care about my girlfriend. I don't care about not getting it up for her. I don't care about getting it up for her.
    I don't care about porn. I don't care about my streak. I don't care about getting any sign of progress. I don't care about flatline.

    If I have an erection I wish I could lend it to you, you seem to want it more than me. If I have morning wood I say oh hi penis, what do you want from me? Leave me alone. I don't care.

    Don't worry

    We are all going through the same thing. Your not the only one. Some flat line for over a year or 2.

    We all start from different places. This will be one of the hardest thing you will do it your entire life. If you can do this, there are lots of things you can overcome.

    I'm flat lining and its been over 40 days as well.

    I don't understand?

    Sex drives DON'T go away at 35+!

    I have heard that whenever i go through menopause it MIGHT go away and I hope it DOESN'T. My sex drive (TMI, sorry!) went down a bit when I started doing busy, stressful jobs for a while, but then it's come back with a vengeance! There are even people here much older than ME on this forum, who have high sex drives! Regardless of age, we all share this in common --- porn and masturbation HAVE TO GO!!!

  19. 1) I clearly said that having sexual drive is normal.

    2) I wanted to say that being an adult we do have that much brain to differentiate b/w right or wrong. If adults would get so depressed its no use of being an adult.

    Anyways... Its better to stop pmo now than never. :) Good luck m8!

    I'm not depressed about having a high sex drive! I'd be more depressed if it went away! I AM a bit depressed about having a PM addiction though
