The AP90 (Anti-Porn)

[Mandalorian Member Find all posts View Profile Close Mandalorian]

Every time i stop watching porn the little amount of sex drive i have goes away, i try to masturbate using only my imagination and it takes like 10min to get a 70% erection and the only reason i masturbate is because i feel like i should not because i am horny, so i get tired of this feeling and proceed to open some porn and man, i feel my head getting flooded with a very good feeling and then i get an 87% erection.

I once did 30 days no porn, not watching porn was the hardest thing i've ever done, i was counting the minutes for the challenge to end.

Is it normal to lose all interest in sex while detoxing from porn? Is it okay if i just stop masturbating while detoxing or do i need to exercise my imagination since i never had to use it because of porn

I'm thinking since you relied on porn for your "fix" for so long your imagination doesn't know what to do. Men are visual by nature. Porn feeds into that need way too easily! Sounds like you may need an accountability partner.

Yeah, usually when i try to use my imagination its easy for me to lose focus and think about something else. I realized this was becoming a problem when i was having some foreplay with my gf and all i could think about was how much i wanted to watch some porn, having sex was so much effort and porn was just easier.

Yes, it is normal. It is called a flatline.

Your brain is so used to have it's dopamine fix through porn that when you stop it you will feel down and loose any interest in sex for a while, before it comes back in a much better way : that is, you will be aroused again by real people and not by pixels.

What you describe is extremely common among porn addicts as is the fact of not being able to get an erection whiteout porn (and able with it), that's definitely a sign of a pretty heavy addiction and of an unhealthy use of porn (think about it, why would a healthy young man be unable to get an erection whiteout using porn??). There are many thousands of testimonies of these symptoms on the internet (for example on the nofap community on reddit).

If you want to inform yourself on porn addiction take a look at yourbrainonporn.com.

Recovery usually takes months but it's worth it.good luck

Never heard of that website, tomassss. I'll have to take a look at it to see if its something I can add to my arsenal of information when helping guys kick their porn habit.

That's because you're missing your dopamine fix. I do have a couple of questions...If you'd rather answer me in a PM that'll work, but otherwise post here...

Does your GF know about your porn addiction? If she does, she could be helpful in transitioning you away from porn. It would take some effort on her part but it would be helpful to you kicking the habit.

Are you experiencing PIED or porn induced erectile dysfunction?

My girlfriend knows about my porn problems, she doesn't really sees it as a huge problem since we never had any problems in bed, of course i never told her that sometimes i rather watch porn than have sex with her.
I believe i have some sort of PIED, i never have a rock hard erection during sex, more like a 93% and when i am masturbating its usually 70/80%.

I watch porn since i was a teen, i don't have morning woods ever, i was probably in middle school the last time i had one, the only few times i can remember having a a rock hard erection was one month ago when i started PE, i was so horny and getting hard all the time so i abused porn for that week and then i never had this solid erections again and before PE i had one solid erection two years ago when i didn't have porn to watch and was thinking about this girl i met (my current girlfriend), it happened just this two times, at least this are the memorable ones. Right after i started PE i had some night woods, which never happened before, i woke up in the middle of the night and my penis was 50% erect, it happened a few times and then i abused porn.. and during my first week of PE, i wanted to sleep with every girl i saw on the streets and this have never happened before, i usually don't feel the need to go after women at ALL! the only reason i started dating my gf was because she and i lived in the same house with other people from college.

I am seriously considering going porn free. I unfornately discovered prone masturbation as my preferred method of masturbating as a kid. I believe this caused me to have what is called traumatic masturabatory syndrome. It gave me a sort of ED that caused problems in my first serious relationship where many sexual positions where not possible due to needing to rub my penis against the mattress in a prone position to get hard. Orgasm and even achieving a really good strong erection was non-existent for me. I thought something was odd when friends would talk about wet dreams and /or morning wood. Two things I never experienced until recently. This problem ultimately ended my first real relationship. A about a week or so before we broke up she told me "sometimes I feel you are not attracted to me. Like you think I am fat and gross. Because anytime I want to be on top you always lose your erection." She was by no means fat or gross and actually 100% my type. It had nothing to do with her. I am grateful that this happened early in life because it caused me to google why I could only stay hard in missionary and why it always took me so long to orgasm from sex.

I took on the challenge to learn to masturbate "conventionally" by hand. And I have finally after taking two weeks entirely off of masturbation begun to be able to masturbate to orgasm by hand sitting or laying on my back. The first time I achieved this it was very exciting. Unfornately, My masturbation by hand is also very dependant on viewing porn.

Masturbating prone I did not need porn. So far by hand I have needed to view porn to achieve orgasm. With the improvement of masturbating by hand albeit with porn use, I do now have morning wood and have even had 1 "wet" dream. Which have actually been exciting things for me. But I believe now it is time to learn to masturbate conventionally by hand with out the use of porn.

Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas for me? I know it is really as simple as stop watching porn! But just curious. I know this was a long post. Sorry guys.

Tone it down bro's. And ditch the deathgrip.

Try your best to avoid it. I have found my mind to be healthier this way and I see women more for who they are.

Once you get off the porn you will and have experienced more normal erections. You need to begin to see porn for what it is...an over exaggerated fantasy. I often call it very cartoony. Its so embedded into your routine that it will cause relational problems if you don't nip it in the bud.

Are you and your girlfriend into slow and easy sex? Maybe try giving each other full body massages if she's willing to try that. This would help you to relax and reorient your senses so you can become hard more naturally...Just a suggestion...

Cut the porn. Cold turkey. Start an exercise routine to replace it. Have a better body. Will build your self esteem.

To truly break the porn habit, you need to start doing something more constructive. A regular exercise routine would be a good place to start. Improve your body and improve your self esteem. Go easy on masturbating for a few weeks. Otherwise it might tempt you back to the porn. If you do have to masturbate, don't have any electronic devices near you.

I erased anything porn related from my computer and got back to the gym last week. My girlfriend and i tried to have slow and easy sex with body massages and all that but it always end up in a rougher way. I will give tantric sex another try.

I downloaded this 90 day chart, i will try my best to complete it. I have just one question, should i also avoid pictures of girls? i don't mean porn stars just some random hot instagram girl on leggings, since its just a picture, my imagination would have to work to make something out of it.

I just woke up to the biggest morning wood ever! i was having sex dreams which never happens, this is the first morning wood i have in many many years, the last time i had one i was probably in middle school, i clearly remember not having them in high school.

I am 6 days porn free, i've been doing RKs for over a month now to treat my IKs (they are almost gone), when i touched a sensitive spot of my glans i would get spasms in my PF, i don't get them anymore and i am starting to be able to masturbate without having trouble to imagine situations, when i watched porn i was watching a guy have sex with a girl and when i masturbated without porn that's exactly what i imagined, a guy having sex with a girl while i was watching but now i can see myself having sex with the girl. I am extending and jelqing as well. I love PEGym!
