Hello all, I came across this site 30 days ago while researching causes of ED. I read about the symptoms of porn addiction, and it seemed to describe what I was going through perfectly. After reading some of the positive accounts of people who tried to reboot, I decided to give it a shot. It's been 30 days (surprised I lasted this long)and I'm not experiencing any of the positive results I've read about. No morning wood,or no new found energy. I know everyone recovers differently, but shouldn't I be seeing at least some results by now? I'm worried and losing hope. I don't want to give up just yet, but I'm not seeing any of the benefits. Maybe I'm just impatient, I don't know. I'm going to try and stick it out. Wish me luck!!

Hey, 30 days is pretty awesome! Well done! What was it like during the 30 days? Did you give up PMO altogether, or just P? If you continued to masturbate the whole month, then I think it makes sense that things wouldn't change much. Images can pass through ones mind intensely enough while masturbating that it's not much different from full PMO at that point. But if you also gave up MO then I guess I don't know what to say. I don't really know the science to be honest. Don't let it discourage you though. If your symptoms persist, it might be best to see a doctor if you haven't done so already. Anyway, there is still value in continuing the challenge, so best of luck to you!
Well done at 30 days!!
I read that research shows that porn-induced ED takes 60 to 150 days to correct itself. The irony is, it typically takes 60 days to correct in a fifty year old man, and 150 days for a 20 year old! (The research suggests that it has to do with the fact that the older man spent much of his life without access to internet porn, which is much more potent and addictive than print has ever been.)
So. . .stick with it!

Thanks for the encouragement guys. To answer your question Hootja, I gave up PMO all together. This past month has had it's ups and downs. I kind of lost the urge to PMO after about a week. I'm just itching to see results now. I don't plan on giving up just yet. I'm going to see if I can make it at least 90 days!
