PIED - 106 days of no porn and still not cured

Discussion in 'Porn-Induced Sexual Dysfunctions' started by Deleted Account, Oct 31, 2020.

  1. I reached 106 days today and I'm still not cured of PIED.

    My background is: I'm 28. I watched porn since age of 12-13, so it's about 15 years of addiction. I watched porn almost everyday many times for 3-4 hours daily. Last 2 years was like 2-3 weeks without porn then relapse and so on. During this time I limp dicked a few girls and I was not able to have sex.

    During 106 days I was completely free of porn and masturbation. I only let myself having sex and orgasm with my girlfriend. I'm still not able to have sex with penertation, because my dick goes soft while putting a condom on, but I can get hard with handjobs. I wonder how long will it take to fully recover and be able to have real sex with penetration and why I'm still not cured...

    Despite the fact that I'm still not fully cured and still not able to have normal sex I noticed some changes/benefits:

    • stronger morning woods, random erections, wet dreams sometimes

    • I'm getting like 30-50% hard just by kissing during foreplay. Earlier my dick was completely limp during just kissing and making out

    • more motivation and energy, not tired all the time

    • clear brain, better and faster learning

    • less nervous and less agressive

    You need more time, possibly 6 months or worst case scenario, 1-2 years.

    My friend, 15 years of porn abuse to your brain isn’t a small number. You will definitely take a while longer to recover than all the others here. The fact that you are seeing improvements is enough to tell you that you are making progress. These were the exact signs I saw once I started making progress too. Give yourself some time, I’m confident that you are on the right path.
    Congratulations on 106 days! I myself am on around 80. I hope you reach your goals!

    You did 3,5 months. If you watched the youtube videos about PIED, you would know that for young guys who used porn as excessively as you did, healing often takes 4-5 months, not 90 days. The 90 day rule is for guys who grew up mostly looking at pictures / magazines, as those are not motion pictures and have less of an effect on the brain. And you even watched it for 3-4 hours per day, you did lots of damage to your neural pathways. Of course you are not healed after 106 days. And you even kept having sex during this time, that's not a hard reset. You had too high expectations while not really putting in the effort.
