    What you are doing with edging won't help you, in fact, it will make all your troubles more challenging to overcome.

    Read this:


    Short version: DO NOT EDGE ! EVER !

    Edging is really bad. Edging trains your body and mind to expect and to need prolonged, often very intense, stimulation in order to reach O. That level of mental and physical stimulation doesn't happen with PIV relations. Guess what: when you attempt PIV, your body and mind don't receive the kind of stimulation it needs to O, instead your body responds with PIED and DE. Not good.

    Edging does NOTHING good, so stop. Easier said than done, but it is certainly NOT impossible and very much worth every bit of effort required to stop this damaging activity.

    For more information about edging, have a look at:

    DO NOT EDGE. EVER !

    Stop kidding yourself that anything good results from edging: it does NOT !

    One day at a time is how we all succeed.

    Yeah, everytime I thought I could get away with edging I end up finishing the deed eventually. Even if you do the whole timer thing. I personally have abandoned the whole philosophy that edging will help you last longer with a lady. Truly better off giving more oral instead. Am I rambling on here, nevermind...

    Hi @badbanana !

    Good. The only thing that edging will do is help you reset and relapse. Edging won't do anything good.

    If you are using the term edging in reference to masturbation, it does not usually apply to just a few minutes Blue Sky7.

    Edging... involves the maintenance of a high level of sexual arousal for an extended period of time without reaching climax... For the male, the speed of the rubbing or stroking of the penis may vary to navigate right to the edge of ejaculation... masturbating up until the moment before reaching the plateau phase just before orgasm occurs, and then stopping suddenly before experiencing a climax. [Sic] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edging_(sexual_practice)

    The scientist Gary Wilson explains edging and the deleterious effect on our reboots:

    What if I masturbate (edge) or watch porn without orgasm?

    Some men attempting the rebooting process believe that as long as they avoid ejaculation, they are successfully rebooting. This twisted logic leads them to endorse an unhelpful practice common to Internet porn users, called edging. This is masturbating up to the edge of orgasm, then stopping to cool things down, then revving up again. Two versions of edging:
    1. Masturbating while viewing porn, but not ejaculating
    2. Masturbating without porn and without ejaculating
    Since a reboot is defined as no porn or porn substitutes 1 makes no sense. For those trying to overcome problematic porn use, edging while viewing porn (or fantasizing about porn) is far worse than simply having an orgasm and getting it over with. Why is that? It all comes down to dopamine... [Sic]

    Edging is what got me here. I was on a 2 week edging bender. My need for O increased exponentially and i gave in to it in an extreme fasion too explicit to post.

    Many years ago, i thought i could edge instead of O but always went overboard with it. That's how my story starts. My very first relapse.

    In short, dont do it. It will only make you relapse and if it doesn't right away, it will make you miserably obsessed to the point of finding new and bizarre ways to edge,
    and then you'll relapse.

    You already know what comes after that so why bother doing it at all.
