You're at 175 days and your PAWS have started getting better already?

Yes, because our imaginations are highly pornified. I ve explained in detail as to why I think that there needs to be a stop on imagination as well.

Yes, you have no idea. Words cannot describe what I went through. I was already going through a difficult time because of PIED. And then PAWS literally killed me. I somehow survived. Now, I only have to get through the PAWS phase. My PAWS have also finally started improving in last 1-2 weeks.

It's probably too soon to say, but my PAWS cycles seem to be shortening, e.g. first lasted one month, second three weeks and third two weeks. But I know this shit can strike back anytime for two years.

Its not too soon to say. 175 days is a considerable time. I was just saying that in comparison to myself since my PAWS started healing like a week ago so around 235 day mark. I have also noticed that my recovery from PAWS until now have not been extreme highs and extreme lows as described by some people. It was totally low all the time and they are gradually getting better hopefully. I will also get to know if my social anxiety has improved or not in the coming weekend. My stress level has decreased but it is still considerably more as compared to how it was before I started my reboot.
Further, I also feel that my recovery process was quite quick in last 2 months because I improved my reboot techniques as discussed in detail in my post

So glad to see your comment brother. So glad. Kindly read my post esp Tips and tricks part regarding mind tricking you to go back to old ways. Please don't do that. Your mind is healing and only you know what you've been through. Don't waste all your efforts. Get married, get a real girl. Our desires and natural and they should be fulfilled in a natural manner.

I Found it odd for me to see a post that u havent got any sex before mariage. but when i see ur a Muslim then Alhamdulillah u can surpass this
i got this PIED too but not maried yet tho
and one my biggest motivation right know is i want to healed form PIED before i get married (even tho i dont have any gf yet), i knew too that the 90 days isnt working for me ive been there (90day of nofap)
i aim for at least 9 month of hard mode for the healing
please make dua for me too so i can forever leave porn, healed from PIED or porn addiction and have a good spouse

Fapstronaut
Yes, I have discussed in detail regarding the 90 day thing which is so famous. It doesn't apply to ppl who started on high speed porn.
Like I said,this needs to be a lifestyle brother. Don't aim for 9 months only. Have mercy on yourself.
InshaAllah, you are in my duas

It is an inspiring story and I hope things continue to go well in the future too!
I am more concerned about never getting married (or laid for that matter), despite almost two years of being on hard-mode at this point. I have developed a lot as a person during this time for sure (and it still gets better by every way) but the concerns about my previous inexperience is what mostly still prevents me from taking action and putting me in situations that might lead to a longer (or shorter) romance.
It might sound ridiculous but I am afraid that my previous inexperience is going to be a huge turn-off and kill the mood, even if I am frank and confident about it. Even if I would get that far, I probably wouldn't be able to perform that time as well (due to my inexperience) and might get judged and ridiculed because of it. Mostly because of the plentiful experience that most dudes my age seem to have in this field. It makes me feel less of a man, despite my physique, self-control and success in other areas of life.
I am many times wonder if I am ever going to even have a sexual-life or if I might be better off just giving up on it altogether. But, parts of me don't want to give up since that's not my character and I have overcome challenges before. Although, this challenge feels a bit tougher since there are still many subconscious demons left that fade away very slowly.

Dude, you have read my post, can it get worse than that for you? I highly doubt that. I highly doubt that you wouldn't be able to physically satisfy a girl for more than 1 year after marriage. Esp after you have recovered from this already. 2 years of hard mode is a huge achievement in itself. Moreover, any relationship, with or without marriage is about two imperfect people accepting each other as they are. Let me tell you one thing. People are very good at pretending. Pretending that they are happy. Pretending that they are okay in a relationship. You are seeing everything from the outside where hardly anything is visible. Everyone gets experience at some point. There is no age limit for anything. Dudes your age are giving such headaches to woman but you have no idea about that. Dudes your age are being so perverted sexually because of porn addiction but you have already recovered from that. You have no idea how much of an edge you have over all the dudes out there. The only thing stopping yourself is YOU.
Moreover, even if you are 100% perfect, which is not true for anybody, most of the times you will not get along with the first woman or the first relationship. That doesn't mean there is sth wrong with you. You just have to learn from that experience and head on. That's how life is. You don't know what awaits you until you get out there to get it.

Thanks for the advice!
Although I am single still, I actually don't have much problem with it these days since I have worked a lot on myself and feel good not being bonded to anyone. Although I would like to get laid sometime (preferably not during a ONS), it isn't something I stress about these days because I know the more you stress about it, the less of it you will get.
I do just feel sorry for all needy dudes out there who jump into relationships just because they feel lonely, incomplete or want to prove for others how successful, happy and great they are. Not only do they end up settling for a mediocre woman and relationship, they have also been so busy seeking approval and status from others that they haven't done much internal work on themselves and those cracks in the pretty façade become more evident for every year, despite what their Facebook-statuses tell (another reason as to why I rarely visit Facebook these days). It is sad to think that they most likely will continue along the same path and end up with a life of mediocrity, misery, envy, and unfulfilled dreams, ambitions and aspirations. Just for the sake of others' approval and not sticking out too much from the mediocre crowd.
A few such skills they have totally neglected is that of self-control, limitation and self-discipline which alone can totally transform your own life if you put in the hard-work necessary to develop them. The past two years of hard-mode has done wonders for my personal development as I turned from a needy, anxious, semi-depressed and reactive child to a confident, satisfied and grown up man. I have matured a lot during that time while learning and acquiring plenty of new skills and interests along the way, some of them which are now leading up to the starting of my future business-adventures and future successes for sure.
I say "successes for sure" because I know it. I do have a natural winner-mentality and that hasn't leached out of me, despite having some rough setbacks along the way which have tuned it down at times.
