So I'm about a month in to no P, but I have had a few slips with MO. I have also been dating a girl for the past 2 months and we have recently started having sex. I can defiantly feel a difference with no P, but it does still take me some time to get going during sex with her. The urge for PMO and just MO in general, but I'm staying strong. To those that are new here, or struggling.... keep at it! I experienced a pretty bad spell of "dead dick" for about a week and a half and it really freaked me out, but stick with it!
During the recovery (reboot) phase. I was doing PMO almost daily, so not doing that made my brain feel there was a serious lack of stimulation.... this is all mental and as long as you don't have some underlying medical condition it will pass. The best advice I've heard, and what worked for me was NO TOUCH! During that time I was edging at times, but just so I could prove to myself that I could still get hard... and I don't recommend that at all. My situation was PA/ED from PMO, so I had to reset my body/mind into realizing where pleasure comes from. It's a slow process, but things are certainly starting to change.
I am on the same bridge where you were standing before. PA as well as ED. I am doing a no PMO for 6 days. Without touching my D at all. Feeling much better confident and in control but how long you think its gonna take a rough estimate for ED to cure?
Hard to say my friend, everyone is different. PA is a BITCH, and I'm still dealing with it to an extent. The thing that really helped me was re-thinking MY level of arousal, and not my expectations of just being "ready to go" as soon as a woman takes her pants off. I searched some videos on youtube and found some pretty good ways of thinking about PA (at least for me) and found this one (sorry if vids aren't allowed). When you feel the anxiety coming because your little man isn't working, take a breath... relax. It's really about re-training your brain into recognizing pleasure and allowing your mind to let go. ED from PA is crippling and insanely embarrassing, I know trust me. Jerking it won't help, your dick works.... just let yourself enjoy the moment. Take a deep breath and just enjoy yourself.
Thankyou! And yes you are right. And mostly the common mistake for a relapse is when we try to check whether our thing works or not and we just masterbate after it. Yes you're right it does work. Thankyou so much!! Motivation has taken birth again in me.
