6,5 years free of porn and masturbation, still PIED

    Hey at all,

    I was watching porn constantly when I was 13-25 years old. Then I met my wife and stopped immediately till now. So I haven´t masturbated for 6,5 years.
    Half a year ago I stopped my hardmode challenge that I have been doing for one year. Even hard mode brought no success. That´s why I stopped.

    Situation now: Erections are weak, I still need manual stimulation, cannot keep erections.
    I tried ED drugs which worked very well but than I got eye problems because of the pills. So I can`t take them any longer.

    I discovered that even if I try to masturbate I am not able to get a strong erection. That seems very weird.

    In one month I will start talking to a psychotherapist AND doctor about what I can do to improve my situation. To be honest I don´t think I will ever recover. Things can be damaged irreversibly.

    Good luck to everyone!
     
  2. Do you have morning woods? Did you tried exercises for you pelvic floor to see if it is weak ou tight or both? Did you tried dopamine fasting? Do you edge?

    morning woods? Not in the past two years!
    When I did hard mode, I had wet dreams. But I am still waiting for the morning woods to come back.

    pelvic floor: No! I am in a good shape, doing a lot of sports etc.

    dopamine fasting? No! I can´t imagine that this is a good thing.
    But I do not use instagram or facebook, no social media in general.

    Do you edge?
    No! I just tried twice to see if I can get hard by myself. I can`t.

    Have you used any hair loss medication? Have you had any blood work?

    Go get a full hormone panel done, testosterone blood test for sure, both free, and total. Join this group on facebook, very helpful if your T is low:https://www.facebook.com/groups/testosteronereplacement/

    If you have low-T, TRT can fix pretty much everything you're describing. I only say this because 6.5 years on Nofap, you don't have PIED, it's something else.

  6. If you don't have morning wood, the first thing is to do a blood test.

    The dopamine fasting is good for people who have d2 dopamine receptors disensibilized caused by PMO, edging ( my case) and fantasizing.

    If you believe what you have it's not hormonal nor someting in your brain, probably can be organic and I would recommend to do Angion Method to recover your penis.

    I don't mean to hijack the topic, but I also do not have morning wood. However, my dick was responded to sexual stimulation while standing in the form of semi erections with precum at times in very rare situations but not always. Can this be a form of severe PIED?
     
  8. This is something that I'm trying to understand. I've met people with ED who have MW and people who does not have MW but does not have ED.

    But doctors says that not having a morning wood it's not healthy.

    What I guess, is, probably dopamine addiction have some impact on morning woods, but science still don't know. I'm saying this because almost everyone who was addicted to PMO lost their mw.

    I see. I just hope that I’m physically okay down there.
     
  10. As I said, if you have morning wood, Angion Method can help with your erection.

    I will tell you more when I have spoken to the doctor in a few weeks.

    Interesting thing in my case: When I expect and wish to have sex with my wife I very often have big problems getting and keep erections. Sometimes (very rare though) having unexpectedly sex can mean that it´s easier, but even then using a condom would be not possible. But PE is the next problem I have.

    Having mornings woods would definitively improve selfconfidence.
    I don´t know why I don´t have them.

  12. I'm sorry what i say now, severe cases can not be cured, in my opinion. I have been in the same situation for 4 years ... nothing has changed. I have night erections only with the awakening they end. So i d ont have physical problems ,i can get erection just like you ,just by manual stimulation. They are only weak and cannot be maintained for long time. My girlfriend works as a host on a webcam site ... she told me she has more man who don't want sex anymore ... they are impotent as we are ... they told tried everything ... nothing worked they are young ! I spoke to a Tantra teacher who said " have you heard of anyone who has been cured of this ??? " has such men daily who want to heal from it ... no one has succeeded. Read the forums on the success stories chapter, how many write that they have cured by ed? Almost no one of the thousands of threads, most are just successes with abstaining from porn or masturbation.I am sorry to write these .... many believe in stories on this site but miracles do not exist.
    Good luck to everyone!

    Guys who think they have incurable PIED should really go get their hormones checked. Even normal testosterone in the lower end of the normal range can really throw a guys ability to get aroused, and hard off.

    Testosterone replacement therapy can turn guys lives around if they're lowish.

    It's variable. If you were once much higher you likely will suffer as a result of a drop. If your biology has always been in the lower range, and everything functions normal for you, then awesome. A good TRT doctor doesn't treat numbers, he treats symptoms, and the numbers are simply a good indicator of the underlying issue.

    Do not follow what anyone is saying. Sometimes all we need to good rest and not stressing. It all in the brains. You should just relax and do all you can. Some people had their life back after 5 years and nofap. Other had it after a few weeks or months. You should just be positive and rest a lot.
