    Hello, Im 23 and I have ED. I feel like Im kind of a worst case scenario. I learned to masturbate prone with a flaccid penis, putting immense pressure on the base with a countertop corner or something similar. I started probably around 12-13. I did this exclusively for a few years until i was 15 I think. I realized that it wasnt normal so I learned how to use my hand. It took a while to get an erection but eventually I was able to get erections long enough to masturbate and orgasm but they never lasted very long. I would masturbate to pictures, underwear ads, rarely softcore HBO stuff. I got a cell phone around 16 and started masturbating exclusively to porn several times a day and gradually stopped using fantasy of real people. I escalated genres and was addicted to PMO, usually several times a day until about age 22. My erections were weaker ove this whole period. I never got hard without touching myself, and it usually took a lot of stimulation to get hard enough to m and o. Sometimes i couldnt get hard for a long time even with p and touching. I never used lube, just tight and fast stroking without my hand sliding over the skin. I would usually only get full hard right before O, and the erection would be gone instantly. I edged with p quite often. I became aware of nofap around 22 and tried some streaks, usually with cheating though. Getting nudes from girls, touching without O, etc.

    After I graduated college I started going on dates for the first time, kissed for the first time, gave oral and fingered for the fist time. I can get semi hard sometimes but usually its just lifeless. Im like 143 days no p or o but i did cheat during the streak by edging and getting nudes from girls. Im on a 10 day streak without touching my penis and Ive stopped most of the cheating (gotten nudes 2 times).

    I dont really know what kind of damage Ive done because Ive never had normal erections. Prone flaccid+no contact with girls+early porn use+death grip. Its like everything that I could have done wrong I did. I programmed my brain to porn and to NOT get erections when Im aroused.

    Only time will tell if I can heal. But Im worried about what damage Ive done to my penis. Obviously Im completely desensitized. But I dont know If Im able to physically sustain a full erection. I get morning wood sometimes but it goes away really fast. What should I do to test if there is anything medically wrong with me? Like go to a regular doctor? Ive read that flaccid masturbation can cause peyronie's disease. I basically jammed a sharp object into the base of my flaccid penis under my full body weight for years, so its definitely possible.

    any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Ok most guys on this site have ED from the brain. Using porn so much has made their sexual neural pathways wired to porn and masturbation. The 90 day reboot allows these neural pathways to degrade, so that an individual may put in place pathways associated with real women. However, this is for people who PMO "normally".

    Pone masturbation not only generates intense sensations that are very dissimilar from any type of sexual contact, but it also can degrade the muscles and tissues in the penis and pelvic area itself. It's obviously not a good combo.

    On the bright side, people have recovered. The pros at Your Brain on Porn say this https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/por...ing-problems-traumatic-masturbation-syndrome/ . Once you stop with the prone M, it usually gets better. I would believe though you will need a full reboot as well

    Well you have a pretty substantial streak rn. If you've been faithful and stayed away from all types of PMO, you should be resensitized and your mind should be free of pathways wired to P. I would go have sex with some girls if I was in your situation. I finished my 90 day streak a while ago and then went into having sex. The first few times it took me a while to feel good, and I didn't even get 100% hard. However, after a few times, your brain begins to associate sex as really really good, and will begin giving you much harder erections for sex, as well as feeling much better. As long you stay in the moment and don't flex the shit out of your PC muscles, you should get back to normal. If you continue to have problems, then consulting a doctor might be a good idea. I've yet to meet someone on this site who has been able to give professional medical advice from going to med school aha
