    I want to start off by noting I have completely stopped masterbating in a prone position as of a week today. I am 20 years old about to turn 21 in October. I would say I started watching porn at the age of 15, however my porn consumption grew worse and worse following up to about 8 months ago. To where some days I would ejaculate via prone position up to 3x a day. This is going to be a very long post so please bear with me. I am currently very scared and I genuinely don't know if I will ever be able to have a wife and children. I am not stating this to brag but to give detail into my problem. As of late 2019 I have measured myself to be at full erection at 9 inches, but as of today; due to what I believe in traumatic masterabatory syndrome, I cannot get an erection bigger than 6 1/2 inches for more than 30 seconds without stroking to maintain it. I apoligize to anyone I may offend by saying that, but i feel its needed for context. I've also experienced a change in my penile tissue being more course as though I have took a wet sander to my junk. Has anyone ever fully recovered from years of improper prone masterbation? Because as I scower the internet in tears looking for answers, all that I come across are a bunch of quora assholes saying 'you might never recover' or 'stop blaming it on porn' I honestly feel like I have been stripped of my manhood and I don't know what to do. Please help me. I'm not in a good place.

    I know how you feel in the regard of only being able to get a decent erection when stroking one’s cock after masturbating for years, and the ED that comes after that. What’s more, I think my erection size has shrunk too since this has occurred. It is awful and emasculating for a young male in the prime of his life to have such conditions when, if he hadn’t done all that masturbation and porn shit he could have given his virginity to a girl who truly appreciates it and been in a passionate relationship by now.

    However, I have found the solution. What you need to do is to think about what it is that causes you to want to masturbate. Not the sexual reasons, reasons deeper down in your psyche than that. Think about what non-sexual thoughts pop into your mind that make you want to masturbate - pretty much every guy here has some sort of mental trauma or anxiety that is prompting him to seek relief by masturbating and/or watching porn. The problem with that is, as well as the negative effects that come from it, despite the initial rush of dopamine you get from orgasming from such stimuli, the problem doesn’t actually go away - it’s still there, deep in your mind, you’ve simply used a dopamine rush to forget about it for a while, and in time that will wear off, prompting the problem to return and you to seek more PMO to soothe it. That’s how our PMO addictions develop.

    What you need to do is to find out what these problems inside you are, and instead of PMO-ing to get rid of them, you need to take action to resolve these problems once and for all, whether doing something physical or simply developing a positive mindset to banish the negative thoughts once and for all. Simply knowing those thoughts have been resolved will give you a dopamine hit that rivals that of orgasming from porn, because of the knowledge that your battle as been won makes you feel great, and avoids the negative side-effects of PMO. Then, whenever these problematic thoughts return, you can perform your replacement actions to keep them at bay, so that in time these habits will replace PMO completely. Try it, it’s worked with me and given me far less of a desire to masturbate or watch porn.

    Once you’ve got this going, you then simply need to be patient and give your brain time to recover from all the porn you’ve been saturating it with.

    Best of luck :)

    You can 100% recover from Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome, or TMS. Check out this article: https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/por...ing-problems-traumatic-masturbation-syndrome/

    There are men your age who have seen major recovery signs in just one week! However, these men were not porn abusers, like us. Therefore, you will likely recover on the same timeline as those who go through a reboot and rewire, which are 90 days each. Do not worry though, for many have been in your shoes and recovered.

    I can't agree more with the posters. You need to get at the heart of the need to PMO. The trigger. We all have it. For me its anxiety, I want to stop worrying for a few moments. After I cum I feel like shit again. As far as keeping and errection I 100% agree and have had the same issue. I can PROMISE you that it will get better after a few weeks of no PMO. Your girl will want to have you inside of her and you will want to be there because that's how we are naturally wired. Don't freak out you are in the right place you can do this.

    Stop seeking help from quora. It will never help you. In case of nofap, the people on quora always mock this practice. They say porn do nothing to your brain. They say porn is fun.Enjoy it. It will demotivate you to do nofap.

    You can fully recover from this situation. But it takes time. Patience is the key on nofap. Do semen retention. You can recover within a year or two.
