I'm on day 5 of rebooting. I've gone a few days in the past without looking at porn or masturbating, but I can't remember ever going 5 or more.
The urge to look at porn and jerk off is almost unbearable. It's taking every ounce of willpower I have not to. It really IS an addiction. In my life, I've kicked a few bad habits, most notably: cocaine and nicotine. Maybe it's just the way I feel in the moment, but this feels like it's a lot more difficult than kicking those habits. Either way, I made a promise to myself to abstain for at least 2 weeks and I'm going to stick to it.
I'm now completely off of Cialis. I've already come a long way. I went from having a completely limp dick every time I tried having sex with my girlfriend, spiraling down into depression and losing my feelings self-worth, to seeing a doctor, getting prescribed Cialis, and tapering down the dosage little by little. My erections on Cialis are incredible as long as I took at least 5mg. However, I'm 25 and physically healthy-- I refuse to be dependent on ED drugs given my situation. I'm now taking the next step and doing what I have to do to increase my erectile function without drugs.
On day 3 of rebooting, I had sex with my girlfriend and I had an incredible erection that lasted all the way through the sex, just as good as the ones I get on Cialis. The only problem was that I was worried about maintaining it, so the sex only lasted a little less than 10 minutes and I didn't bring her to orgasm like I usually do. I just came when I was ready. Nonetheless, it's a start on a new branch of my journey and my goal is definitely in sight.
