    Salutes my rebooters.

    My name is George, im 23 years old, and I suffer from PIED.

    I lost my virginity when I was 19 years old, and 8 women later, I cant still get a normal erection. The fact that I could only get rockhard with oral sex seemed very interesting to me, as it was my favorite porn category. On the other hand, penetration would take my erection away in a matter of minutes, and sometimes even the act of putting a condom would destroy the erection in a few seconds. After reading about the physical and psicological effects of pornography, and searching around different websites and youtube channels, I decided to quit porn and masturbation instantly.

    These are some of the symptoms that convinced me about PIED:
    -Cant really masturbate without watching or thinking about porn (In the second one I get rockhard when im reaching climax)
    -Technically im a virgin, as my erections always fade away in a few seconds.
    -I can only enjoy oral sex, although it takes around 30 min to cum, and I always need to masturbate to finish (with the exception of two times)
    -I dont feel comfortable masturbating while standing up or being laid in the bed. I need to be sat down.
    -I NEVER had morning woods (with some exceptions)
    -I NEVER had a wet dream

    At the moment im on a nofap/not using porn journey. The goal is to reach 90 days and then set a lifetime goal. I will describe my porn consumption to see if someone can give me some feedback about the process:
    I watched porn since I was 11 and probably started to masturbate around 13. I got the habbit of having edging sessions that would take about 30m-1h sessions with multiple tabs. I normally masturbate 1 time per day.

    I think that my abscense of morning woods and wet dreams has to do with the fact of starting to watch porn in such a young age, but I would like to see some shared opinions.

    At the moment im experiencing a flatline. My dick feels absolutely dead, but I could not care less. This will be a long process.

    By the way, I strongly recommend to anyone who reads this to check this youtube channel: The Universal man.
    You will learn tones about self development, discipline, male psyche and more. It provides a lot of information on how to handdle rebooting.

    Hi George, I'm 21 and have had a very similar experience to yours.

    Lost my virginity at a young age so my dick was fine then but have never reached orgasm from sex, only from oral and that would take a while. Been watching porn and masturbating to it for 10+ years so similar to yourself. Found out I had PIED toward the end of last year: the first time I was completely soft and nothing was happening, the second time with a different girl was a bit better but like you my erection would fade during sex and we kept stopping.

    I'm doing my 90 day reboot now but I don't expect to see significant progress to curing it for another 2-3 months on top of that, and I'd prefer to keep expectations low so I'm not disappointed. Some time after the 90 days, and when I feel ready, I'm gonna throw myself back into trying to date and improve my connection with real women rather than ones on a screen. I'm hoping this will help with the recovery.

    Hope this helps and good luck with your reboot.

    P.S. I would also recommend the website 'YourBrainOnPorn.com' if you haven't already heard of it, and the edited Allen Carr book 'The Easy Way to Stop Watching Porn'.
     
  3. Wet dreams, morning wood and popcorn. Sounds like the life to me! :cool:

    However, most men never have wet dreams after they discover masturbation. (On Nofap, a lot of guys struggle with wet dreams, but they are the rare exception that quits masturbation). It's really not surprising that you never had wet dreams . . . at least not after having sex. (I have had 4 wet dreams. Two when I was 13 or so, and two after many many months of doing NoFap)

    As for morning wood, I'm not sure. Try drinking some water before you go to sleep. One reason guys get morning wood is because they have to pee, and since its hard to pee with an erection, the penis gets erect allowing the body to sleep some more.

    Best advice. Do hard mode. Porn will rot your mind. Masturbation will get you nowhere and orgasms are draining. I did close to a year of hard mode and, while I didn't get erections very often, they were rock solid when they happened.

    Good luck!
