Testing erection?

You can check the quality of your erection when you wake up (morning wood erections).

I wake up and see my erections and can compare that with previous erections (but don’t touch it) and you should see the difference of the quality of your erections as you go further into the journey.

When you are in flatline (where I am), I don’t worry about my erections. When the flatline ends, I’ll compare again.

Just don’t touch your penis at all.

 

I tried to test my erection after 90 days. He had trouble holding the pencil since he doesn't have hands.

 

This is the forum I was gonna make but thank you for doing it for me. And all the responses answered all my questions. Thank you. Yeah don't test your erection if you're on a flatline. Worst decision you will ever make.

 

Sounds like it works. Anything more and you're skating on thin ice. You're dangerously rolling the dice brother. This it's not the behavior that keeps you free of porn, and rationalizing it as a "test" only gets you to snake eyes faster.

 

Congratulations on going 4 months (and a little bit extra) on staying clean.

No, you should not "test" your erections. Just don't.

You'll know you're ED is healed when you start getting morning wood again, or when you get a spontaneous erection somewhere.

BTW, just because your ED is healed, doesn't mean you should go back to PMO. ED problems are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the damage porn does to us -- they're the bit we notice, but porn affects our brains in other ways that we are often unable to observe.

 

I have gone through exactly that. Went 5 months started 'testing' and ended up relapsing. Haven't made it past a month since.

 

Easy guys. If you feel you can test cleanly and you're confident that you will control any urges then do it no problem .

 

You're an adult. You don't need permission. But please share your lessons learned with us.

 

This is happening to me except the odd half-hearted morning wood...

It doesn't worry me, quite the opposite in fact - as I read that it was a 'healing reaction' to NoFap. But I am curious to know what other signs your body gives off to show that the healing process is progressing or nearing completion. Are there any other signs/clues other than whether the old boy stands to attention?

 

Best thread title.

 

If you're in a relationship, you can practice karezza sex even if it's not full erect - no orgasms, just slow and gentle lovemaking. It'll speed recovery up!
