    Hi,
    I am a 36 year old guy that has been addicted to porn for the past 20 years on and off.
    When I was younger, I used to be an active, healthy and adventurous guy. For the past 10 years I feel my health has deteriorated turning me into an anxious unsociable guy that has lost all confidence and taste for life. I also have been suffering from PIED during the past few years.

    it all started innocently as teenager and with time I found myself searching for kinkier and kinkier porn as the vanilla porn didn't use to give me the rush I was used too. With time, I evidently started masturbating and edging for hours to femdom, transwoman, bisexual and cuckolding porn etc.... identifying myself as a submissive beta male as I felt my dick and body was dead..i didn't feel like a man anymore.. I also started suffering from severe IBS (D Mostly), that started after I caught a bug and I still have a messed up digestive system till today... With time my hair fell off... I have no energy... skinny as I have difficulty digesting food.. no muscles..

    I have hard of nofap before but only joined the site just now, and did a 30 day streak earlier before I started binging again.. Currently I am on a 38 day streak as of today.

    Would love for insight on the following:
    - Anyone feel during reboot that your penis is rubber like? after 38 days I do feel like my penis looks normal sometimes and other times it goes back to its small rubber like stage.
    - Overactive bladder has improved although I still do feel the urge to urinate frequently
    - I read a few threads of people with IBS or bad digestion that had their symptoms cured or ameliorated.. Can anyone attest to that? Besides ED this is one of my main issues because my Digestion issues have been de-habilitating and have completely messed up my life and my ability to function normally on a day to day basis... I have tried different diets and saw doctors that tested me and they all told me there was nothing wrong with me... Sorry if its too much details but I have had a normal bowel movement or well formed stool in years!!! I really do hope NOFAP can help with issue.

    I am currently on my second streak (38 days) and I feel like my anxiety has lessened, I slightly sleep better, my penis sometimes look healthier although at times it still looks kind of shriveled.. I used to experience occasional pain in all my organs which was weird but seems situation has ameliorated... Digestion and hair fall still bad...

    Looking forward to complete the 90 day challenge at least with hope that my symptoms will ameliorate..

    Would appreciate hearing from guys with similar symptoms that did the challenge..

    Much appreciated,

    G

    Try probiotics like Yakult or Actomel for the IBS, it has def helped me. Odd penis feelings are common in rebooting presumably because it got used to being manhandled for years. Keep caffeine level down to reduce bladder irritability. I too found that I was peeing a lot during first month of streak. Try and see yourself as a fully competent male - forget the alpha beta thing - you are you. Hair loss is genetic and common in 30s but stress can make it worse. Many on here report thickening of head and body hair when PMO free. Oh, and welcome!
