Quality of sex/erection after PMO

Hi @karshup - the Success Stories forum contains many empowering posts about the benefits after PMO. There will be a period of flatline where erections will not be very successful, but certainly from past experience (I was clean for a good while back in 2018), I definitely had improvements for a long time with erection strength and longevity (to the point where I didn't need any pill to help with erections). For me, duration of sex decreased (for many years I found it hard to climax with a partner), so actually it improved things by making sex shorter - but that's just me and I had the opposite problem to most men (of finishing quickly).

Unfortunately I didn't manage to stay away from PMO or other sexual addictions, and now back on the road to recovery. But I definitely can say from experience that for a while, there plenty of benefits for me after initially kicking the negative habits! Now into the 5 month, I can feel things starting to improve again

 

My flatlined induced after masturbating to porn. How is this possible?

 

Hey dude, scientifically I can't answer that. But it seems to be the case that most guys who have a PMO addiction will experience flatline (loss of erection + libido) when they attempt NoFap and give up PMO. Porn excites us in an extreme way, so when that is removed, the brain seems to need to recover and rebalance, and a side effect of this is losing your erection for a while

 

Well, I know that much. I just don't know why I my flatline induced after masturbating to porn. I wish someone could help me out.

 

I suggest looking at / learning techniques (such as breathing exercises) to help prevent early climax my friend. I think there will be some useful info on this forum if you do a search and other medical guidance like below: Squeeze Technique and 7 Other Ways to Treat PE or Last ...https://www.healthline.com › health › squeeze-technique

 

It's not a number's game brother. It's not by quitting porn for 30 DAYS that you'll experience change.

Sex is between the ears brother, and the reason why some men last longer in bed is because of their mindset. See they have no doubts, they just go there and perform. The believe they can perform any day of the week, and twice on Sunday.

In the case of a person who's been decentised by porn, the difficulty is that a real person is no longer attractive anymore, so what you need to work on is not to hurry up and stick your penis directly. Take your time to rewire and find a partner that's willing to just kiss, and take it gradually from there, until you feel strong urges about that person by just thinking about them.

See most compulsive porn users would find it very easy to have a long lasting erection for about 1 hour to porn, but just not to a woman; And the answer is that they simply don't find the real deal to be arousing.

So long story short. Find a woman and reprogram your mind to crave her, to fantasize about her, to want to love her, to want to consume her. until you don't need much effort having an erection.

Fix your mindset and you'll last as long as you last in front your screen, otherwise it doesn't matter if you spend 900 days away from porn or even a billion.

I repeat again, it's not a number's game, it's about training your mind and sensitizing yourself again back to factory settings.

 

I wish I could answer. I have the same question. I really don't know.
