Hi, I am a 27 year old male who has been watching porn and struggling with PMO for 17 years. I’ve been going through Nofap and relapsing for a while now, but I have gotten to the point where I can easily go 4-6 days without porn at all. And even seeing porn, or if a girl I hookup either sends...

I have some PIED/anxiety and am in the process of rebooting. A Doctor measured my Testosterone level to be 600, where 400-800 is healthy for men in their 20s. (I'm physically healthy: 15% body fat, can bench press body weight, and run for 25 mins at 170/min heart rate). After doing some...

This is my journal of attempting to free myself of the slavery of pornography, and my experience in overcoming some of the difficulties. I didn't believe in the harm of pornography (P), because I had naively mistaken masturbation (M) to be the same as sex physically, without knowing porn is a...

Hi guys, I have been in recovery for quite a few months now but thought it would be good to post here, to receive some support and document my journey. I am 33 years old, soon to be 34 and I have watched porn since 15 years of age. I guess I have known this to be a problem for some time, but...

I would like for people here to share storyes and give each other a support so we can grow together in recovery. And maybe tell what we expetc of our lives in future. 1. I live in a beautifull city with great weather. But that doesn't matter becaouse I make my days dark. My life is messy. I...

Hi everyone. I’m 70 days completely free of PMO. I have experienced intense withdrawal symptoms in the form of consistent P flashbacks and intrusive thoughts. It’s distressing but I haven’t even been close to a relapse. What I need help with is that I am currently unemployed due to a health...

Hi everyone, So I’m coming up a month without PMO. I’m doing ok, but one huge withdrawal symptom I have experienced is flashbacks. These flashbacks can range from vivid to dull, intense on one day to less common on another and on some days they are just lurking, constantly, ready to spring into...

Hello Guys, im 20 y/o. Quick recap of my addiction: First porn at 10/11, addiction started at maybe 16. Up to 3-4 times a day sometimes, mainly every day min. 1 though. At 17 I started viewing T-Prn, which resulted in weird fem*om, S**sy and porn of that kind. 4 Months ago, i got a...

Hi there! So quick question out there to rebooters and also those that have rewired. I’m 20 days into this reboot and have experienced strong MW (75-100% strength) consistently for the last week-2 weeks. Is the return of strong MW a good sign that positive changes are happening and is this a...

Hi guys, just wanted to share my progress with you. I started on this platform around 2018, when I couldn't put a 2 day streak together. I didn't realise how detrimental PMO was. It messed with my brain, my mental wellbeing and of course my dating life. I just wanted to share my story so far...

Warning!: I'm new to this forum and I have no idea what counts as a triggering subject, so be warned. Honestly, I don't even know how to properly start this, but I will try my best. [In a nutshell at the ending] I'm 18 years old now, but I started watching porn when I was really young...

I have been user since years (10+). 4 years ago my consumption increased significantly and escalated. I have tried to quit several times, and I have faced numerous challenges along the way. I have successfully reduced my PMO (Pornography, Masturbation, Orgasm) habits over the past few years...

Hi so I have recently discovered that I have PIED and it was a shock because Im used to having rock hard erections when I masturbate. But I have been trying to sleep around and so far when im with a partner it turns into a confusing mess on why Im unable to stay hard if im able to stay hard im...

Hello everyone Im new to this Nofap life and I only recently discovered that I have been addicted to porn ever since I have been having more regular sex with actual people. I am most scared of the fact that I have discovered that I have PIED. Im really trying to overcome that and allow myself to...

I am 35 and I have been struggling with porn addiction for at least ten years, probably more. In 2018-19 I had a series of failures in my relationship and career. I returned to my hometown to start from scratch. But then my father got cancer (he died two years ago) and then it was the quarantine...

Here's my story, followed by my question... that I would kindly appreciate your opinions on: 48 year old male, estranged wife, and I have 3 kids. Wife turned off sex and intimacy 6 years ago and I immersed myself in porn and MO. I've never really been into vanilla porn before this but very much...

hi! first of all, this is such an great initiative and I'm so relived to finally join something like this. I have been masturbating almost regularly for more than 2 years (M 20 in college). I usually use soft-porn (hot reels on insta/fb) or masturbate with my significant other (SO) (for last...

I have been dating my girlfriend a few months before I deployed. I go home in a couple weeks. When I get home, I’ll be 63 days into my second no PMO reboot (the previous one was also 63 days long, the two were broken up with an MO session). If I am capable enough to have natural sex, will the...

What do you think are good signs to begin rewiring with other people? I am 23, currently deployed, and come home in a couple weeks. By the time I’m home, I will have had two back to back 63 day no PMO streaks broken up by a MO session. I am anxious about my recovery because I haven’t been able...

To preface, i'm 16 and fighting a porn addiction. I started around 11-12 and struggle to quit. From what I can remember, when I first started watching porn women did turn my on, but I can't recall a time where I had a strong erection with a real women. When ever I'm with a real girl my erections...

Hey guys, Quick backstory: long history of porn use since I was in middle school, had sex in high school into freshman year of college (2016), nothing since then until this year. I relied heavily on femdom/findom stuff. At least once a day, often times multiple times a day for hours, you know...

I am currently over 90 days porn free. 60 days into my PIED reboot I MOd once, and haven’t since. Ever since I MOd, I’ve had 0 libido. Not a deadline exactly, just no libido. Why? My theory is that I have no libido cause I am no longer turned on to porn, like I was not turned on by actual women...

Hi everyone, I m new on this forum, i'm French, and even if i often use English for work, i can make some mistake as it's not my native language. I am 37 yrs old, single for 1 yr, and stuck with PIED since i was a teenager, because of porn i started to watch when i was 13. As i remember, i've...

Hello, I have always had PIED, I started watching pornography when I was about 13, I had my first sex with a woman when I was 20. My sex with women has always been such that : its not easy to have erection but sometimes I have erection just for a while and I have to hurry and put my dick inside...

When I first started my reboot, I experienced an ache in my penis during a flatline. Now, a few months in, I am experiencing that same ache/pain in my flaccid penis and morning wood erections. I have PIED; I only MO once two months into no PMO, and am three weeks past MOing. I initially thought...

I am male, 23, and started PMO around 12 years old. I have had sexual encounters numerous times in the last few years, but all one sided/fails because of PIED. Now, I’ve been hardcore free for about 5/6 months, soft core (social media) free for a little over two. I recently decided to...

I'm 21 years old. Struggled with severe PIED for a while. I've improved but relapsed and now I'm around 50%, but it just doesent seem to improve. I've been in NoFap for around 6 months. I've taking finasteride for almost a year now. I've had erections while on finasteride although not 100%...

Hi all, thought I would share ways that have worked for me getting over PIED and what I have observed from people trying to recover. I will start with the below because people are going to ask “but how sever were you?” Or “how long did you PMO?” Or “what type of porn we’re watching?” I am 35...

So it’s been around 10 days that I’ve started to abstain and before this I have tried to abstain multiple times but I failed miserably in that. But this time I’m feeling a lot better than my previous tries and my urges are very low this time. Now I don’t know what’s happening me to me, but I’m...

So I went to meet my gf yesterday and we got intimate. So I have a history of 10 years PMO and PIED. So last two times when I tried to have sex with her, it got failed because of my weak erection due to PIED. So I decided to abstain many times but failed miserably. But recently I started...

I don’t know why it’s happening but whenever I see a real naked woman(my gf) in front of me, I don’t get that hard and it doesn’t give me that excitement which I used to get before. I have been consuming porn from like 10 years now and stopped it 6-7 months ago. I have PIED and I’m fighting with...

The last night, I had 2 wet dreams, wich is very unusual lol, I had the first one, woke up in the middle of the night after ejaculating, went back to sleep, then had another one in the early morning before waking up, I remember in the 2nd wet dream, I'm not going to go into graphic details ofc...

So recently I just got to know that I have PIED. I have been consuming porn since 14-15 years of age and now I’m 24. I have a gf from like 3 years. I love her immensely and she’s the kindest soul I’ve ever come across. So I have told her that I’m dealing with this issue and she’s very...

I think it is worth watching the full video before commenting/posting. There is a lot of information here.

i can only get and maintain erection to porn and moment i shift my focus it go flaccid, is it severe pied or something else ?

This month marks 56 months since I first started recovery. Over the past few days I have been experiencing bouts of morning wood and deeply vivid dreams. Morning wood is at around 65% but still not 100%. What is interesting is that when flaccid it is still small, but last night I woke up in the...

Hey fellow Fapstronauts, wow, I'm nervous. It's the first time ever that I introduce myself in an internet forum and pretty much the first time I write to the interested public, what's cracking, what's wrong (?) with me. Hm, don't know where to start - so emberrasing ... maybe start like this...

Hi all, I have been meaning to write an update on my overall progress: This month marks 4.5 years (or 54 months) of recovery. The good news is that I am 100% healing, however 99% of the time it simply does not feel that way. A few weeks ago I woke up out of the flatline. No brain fog, a clear...

Day 32 at age 32, I am a PMO addict of 20 years. Still no morning wood, no libido. Brain fog seems about the same, although it is xmas holidays so I'm not really using my brain too much lol so its hard to tell. Overall, I feel determined like I never have before. I will reach 90 days and...

I'm just trying to understand, how death grip cause desensitization and ED? Everything online simply says that it's "too much pressure" on the penis. Okay, but what is the mechanism that causes desensitization? With PIED, it is explained that sheer overstimulation leads to neurochemicals...

Guys, Due to long fapping Now, I am suffering from watery semem . My semen comes out just by thinking sexual or watching some erotic scenes. Also my tool not erect fully i have to use my hand to get full erection .Whenever I release my hand my dick loose all the erection . What to do Can Anyone...

I'm officially at my breaking point. I'm 35 (holt shit) and I'm dealing with soul crushing loneliness. It's at a point where I'm reaching new depths of depression I didn't know were possible. It's to the point where I'm just losing hope. When time keeps passing by, and nothing changes, despair...

Hi everyone, I am 33 and have been watching porn for 15 years. I noticed early signs of addiction (e.g. having the urge to watch a cpl of times a week) several years ago. And I have been watching it 5-6 hours a day for the past 5 years. I am partnered and I have PIED and PIPE. So, here I am. I...

At what point in the recovery process should you start pursuing women and having sex? Should you wait until you feel totally healed? How do you know you're ready? Or do you need a partner as part of the recovery process to help you heal and rewire your brain to healthy sex? I've heard...

Hello! Short story about me: Im a 23 year old guy. My ed problem began at 19 years old. Started watching "stuff" from the age of 12-13 like most of you. One day I just woke up without morning wood and could not have intimacy with my now ex girlfriend. PIED was at the back of my mind, however...

I'm 25 years old, i was doing PMO since i was 11 , in the last 3 or 4 years i started to watch more more more intense porn. and this intense porn started to be more frequent in the last year. in the last few months maybe 4 or 5 months i started to suffer to maintain erection during PMO...

I've tried for over a decade to recover from PIED, but I always relapse. My longest streak is 7 months, but I need at least 1.5 - 2 years for a full recovery. I've tried all the usual recommendations: exercise, diet, hobbies, outdoors, therapy, etc. I'm at the point where I'm desperate for a...

G'day fellow brothers. Background: Close to 30M, 10+y of extra ordinary stimuli. Categories: Exposure to the worst most addictive categories is not good to your receptors. One can recover from all the categories, No matter the amount of time you spent with them.Well that doesn't mean that you...

My age is 25 years, I'm a virgin and I'll get married to a beautiful lovely girl after few months maybe 4 or 6 months from now (we are still arranging) and according to my culture it's not normal to have sex outside of marriage. I'm diagnosed with OCD and borderline personality disorder. I...

Just curious, I suffer from PIED and currently in the process of doing a reboot and keeping the porn to zero and only masturbated once this month currently on day 25 streak which I'm very impressed with and know I'm not going to break it as I'm proper committed and am not suffering due to poor...

(English is not my mother language, so down there is google translate, sorry for my lacks of English) Hi everyone, I think myself needs a bit of advice from you. First, a little background and my Nofap process. I know starting masturbating with Porn about 9 years. With the frequency I follow...

Hi so basically im 15 and started masturbating when i was 12. Went fine until i was around 14ish and started escalating in what i was watching and my erections got weaker and i developed pied. I had many failed attempts till late march in which i have begun a long streak of nofap *have...

Has anyone with pied taken ciali$ and over time noticed it has become less effective? My understanding is it is not a drug that the body builds up a tolerance for, so you shouldn't even have to increase the dosage. I took 20mg on the weekend, ended up getting lucky, but my erections came and...

Greetings I'm 21, college student and currently trying NoFap PMO in ordrer to cure my erectile disfunction. I started NO pmo in order to cure my mood, harm caused by masturbation overall... But as i naturally increase my exercice these secundary effects completely faded away to the point that i...

Semen leakage, when arousal occurs. It can literally be just seeing a hot girl irl and getting a bit aroused by her, then I notice when I go to take a pee after, there is some semen discharge in my boxers. This also happens during sex and pmo, semen will leak during arousal and it will cause my...

Hey, I am a (21 M) who has been PMO since 11. Although I have had plenty of sexual encounters throughout my teens, with only problems being lack of satisfaction in the bedroom, after COVID hit I reverted to PA which tbh has spiralled out of control. Ever since then I have noticed slight ED and...

Dear readers, Greetings! I am a 33 year old married husband. I have been married for three years but have been suffering from severe PIED. I have been a porn addict since I was around 19. I realized about porn addiction and its adverse impact on sexual health and embarked on the recovery...

Hello fellow nofappers. I thought I'd check in to journal this fight I'm STILL fighting, register some minor victories and ask anyone if they have any advice about my situation. I'm 28, been trying to go 90 days seriously for around a year and a half now, have experienced what I think is...

Hi there, Has anyone successfully rebooted (or in the process of rebooting) and played video games during? Was just wondering if playing video games hindered anyone’s progress or led to relapses? If you did play video games did you play them regularly? Thanks for the help rebooters!

So I haven't posted yet, this is actually my first post. And I'm so proud that it is. So this is also an intro post, so buckle in, it's a long one. Background: 27 y/o, in a committed 3 year relationship, and kinky individual having dabbled in nonmonogamy prior to. I am one of those who has gone...

Hello everyone, I registered today and I am proud of being an officiall fapstronaut now. I started consuming porn at around age 12, really cant remember anymore. First there werent really any changes in my mood. Back in this time (around 14) i was fit, extroverted, did well in school, and had...

I'm now 30. Started nofap at 25 years old and managed a full year long streak. Since then, I've been having sex with mild success. I've always dabbled with porn the last few years, but nowhere near as much as i was when I was an addict. Maybe watch one every 2-3 months, and not like full blown...

Hi, everyone. I'm new to NoFap, although I've attempted porn and masturbation abstinence several times. I started watching porn and masturbating when I was 12. Now 22, it's been nearly 10 years since I got addicted to PMO. Watching and masturbating to porn and other sexually arousing content...

The flatline is and has been a commodity that not many of us truly understand. We dip in and out of it throughout our reboot, and it can last anything from a few days to months. It is essentially an emotional rollercoaster that we not only fear but struggle to understand. In this post I will...

I'm a 21-year-old boy who only watched porn for 4 years few days earlier while I was watching porn I started to feel that my erection wasn't hard enough and now I don't feel any sexual desires and I don't want to watch porn like in the earlier days and I'm quit healthy I have built muscle from...

Hi, I'm 44, I live in France and I have been doing PMO since I was 18. I have 2 kids, and last year I quitted their mother after a 7-year relationship. I'm in a build-up phase of my life since last year: reuniting with some of my family, reconnecting with good old friends, being a better dad...

Hi everyone, here's my story: I'm a 40-something guy with a great wife, and traditionally a pretty high sex drive. I've been with my wife for 12 years, and we have sex 2-4 times per week. But in between that, I was using porn pretty much every day. Sometimes I would even have sex with her, then...

So I need ur advice with my problem. I am 18 years old, and i used to masturbate to porn every day, i didn't even think about it as an addiction it was like a habit i would just do it when i didn't have anything to do even to the point when i wasn't craving it but i still did it out of a habit...

Hi everyone. I've been on this journey for almost 2 months now. I've had a pretty severe for almost 15 years addiction to femdom and hypno porn. Which is MUCH worse that plain vanilla porn but that's another story and we're not here to compare who has it worse. I'm happy with the way I proceed...

Hey everybody So after going through some of threads on here and just googling a bunch of shit I realised there aren’t many threads about being addicted to (basically) gay hookups. So I decided to make one. Im still on the journey of recovery so everything I write on here isn’t gonna be a...

I am currently doing a study on the role trauma plays (if any) on individuals that develop ED/PIED symptoms. Once I have this information, I plan to release a post with all my findings - and a comprehensive guide on: a) the true nature of PIED/ED b) the cause of PAWS symptoms...

I have seen some of the reviews of these products and some people are claiming these products do wonders if taken together. They are supposed to increase your testosterones and blood circulation and they are supposed to be containing only natural ingredients. Anyone (especially 30+ with PIED...

How will i know if my PIED is fully cured?

Hi Everyone, i want to share my success story. I was watching porn since i was 15 years. I had sex when i was 19 and couldn't keep my thing hard. Tried again at 21 same thing again. Recently i had sex twice with a girl and couldn't keep my thing hard. I thought i was having some problem and i...

Hi there! Nice to meet you all. I'm very happy to have found this forum to get some company on this problem we all have. I'm 23 years old male suffering from porn addiction. I've been using porn since getting my first portable device in 2012. An 4th generation iPod touch. I started streaming...

So I had pied for a while and then I started nofap. Took a while but eventually I got around to my longest streak like 75ish days. I felt like I was about to explode all the time even though I felt like I had more energy and enthusiasm than I did ever before so I decided to rub one out. It...

So, I'm a 20-year-old male who hasn't had a morning wood since I was late 17 or early 18. From that time until now (late 20s), I've noticed that during sex, I get hard, but I can't stay hard without constant touch, and even a minute without it causes me to go flacid. Then I discovered that even...

I will try to keep this short. I have been using porn pretty much daily since I hit puberty back when I was 12 or 13. I have had a few streaks where I have quit PMO for a week up to a month, but it has pretty much been a consistent habit in my life. I grew up very religious and because of this...

Hello there. I'm going to tell you a bit of myself and my current status. I've 36, I started PM with 13. At the begining it was with magazines, then with Internet downloads and finally with streaming. When I was 24 or so, I started to PM to fetishes that years before would've been unthinkible...

After a lifetime of PMO I have decided to go for a hard reboot for at least 1 year. This after my daughter heard me PMO in the closest yesterday. I feel like a complete degenerate. Controlled by my addiction, week, and feeling like I am a total fraud. My marriage is already in the toilet and...

Greetings everyone, I embarked in the nofap journey to kick away the pmo habit and also to solve delayed ejaculation complications in the act of sex, I have had relapses here and there, but for the last 3-4 weeks I haven't consistently pmo'd at all. I am married and sex is a key element to...

So this is my first post. I never engaged actively in any forum but now feel that it is necessary. I have first encountered NoFap in 2018. Identified IP as a problem and am battling it since then. I started doing several streaks of hard mode since New Years of 2019. Suffered from PIED before...

Hello guys I have problem my peins looks small i was watching porn video alot and I am maried i can do sex but no wood morning ,some times ihad wood morning but doesn't look hard like before, always bad mode no libido stress i don't know what should to do.my age 28 and i was watching porn more...

Hi, I have been on Nofap for three weeks and can notice a weaker erection, a thinner erection, shrinkage of penis and worse incontinence. Anybody else experiencing similar thing? What can this be?

I can't express how low and lonely I feel right now. I could really do with a friend who's going through the same thing to talk to, preferably someone also lgbtq+ but I obviously won't discriminate.

I Lonnie Riley ,Am currently 19 years old, and I have made 95 days with this method, I have suffered at the hands of my own ignorance, I have lost my happiness, My ability to feel, I have even lost my ability to maintain solid erections. At around age 12 I fell victim to my own curiosity I...

This is my first post. I have used porn and masturbation around 2 times a week as long as I can remember. I have never had a problem getting an erection with my wife, and have always been able to perform. She caught me lying and using porn behind our back for our entire marriage. I am trying to...

I'm 29 now, and have bated PIED for years. I've had extremely long streaks and suffered alot of erection issues. My question is, can your dopamine receptors truly heal, or can there be permanent damage?

So last night I was with the love of my life and she told me she wanted to start a family and that she wants me to have my way with her. As I feared, I couldn't get it up for some reason even though we had sex two days ago. I am so confused and I do not know if I just have pied or if I am...

Hi guys, Little introduction. I am a 30 year old man, I've been watching porn since I found out it's exist, around when I was 14 years old. 16 years of experience in self destruction .. that's something to be proud of am I right? (joke... it's sad) I am currently on a 90 plus days streak...

Like the title says I have pied. I’m on day 7 with minor peeking and no masturbation . I’m just very lonely and tired of being alone and sad . Is it still possible for me to try and date with pied? Sometimes I just sit at home and wonder if it’s going to be like this forever . I will be 31 in a...

Hi there, Well, lots of things to say, I will try to write them down here, not sure in which order. So, I'm 40, married, with children, and a beautiful wife I've been with for 15 years (and she was the one who took my virginity). Been fapping on porn for 20 years I think maybe a bit more (it...

So like the title says . I ordered an ED medication online . It’s a new Compounded medication and it comes in a trough or dissolvable medication . It honestly looks like 4 hits of blotter acid in a gelatin form. It’s a compounded medication, it has 110 mg of sildanifil, 22 mg of tadalifil and 3...

Yesterday, for a reason I can't quite work out, I felt 100% healed. I spent just under a day feeling pretty much back to normal. I cannot express in words how good I felt. It is one thing to sit online and read other peoples recovery stories, but it is totally another to feel cured after years...

I read that the supplement L-Tyrosine and DL-phenyalanine is good for increasing dopamine in the brain. Have any of you tried this or something similar? I'm at the very beginning of a reboot, and I've used this as a replacement whenever my brain starts to wander to wanting to turn to P***

Good evening everyone Today is day 2….. yet again . Tomorrow I am going to make an appointment with my primary care physician . I am going to ask for an EEG scan to see if drug use from my early twenties has affected my brain in any way . I am also going to ask for a referral to see a sex...

So i'm 18 turning 19 in 2 months, i've been watching femdom since i was about 11. The thing is that i can maturbate to normal vanilla porn, i can even masturbate to my imagination based on normal sex. But i just can't quit femdom, and the bigger problem is that i can't get hard while watching...

I have had this fetish since I was a teenager till about now (I’m now 30). I don’t want to trigger anyone I’m just going to explain what it is . I like to wrestle, usually fit, athletic escorts and sex workers . I never really watched any “vanilla porn”, I just watched these erotic wrestling...
