  • Recovering From Porn Addiction

    Hey everyone,

    Some of you may have seen me in different parts of this forum, thinking I suffered from SPA as well as an odd patch on my unit. I have spent tons of time researching everything and my final theory is this has to do with a porn addiction. A very quick summary of myself:

    -I'm in my late twenties
    -I grew up bullied and with self-esteem issues
    -I never had a serious girlfriend until recently and we are moving towards getting engaged (can't explain how big this has been to me )
    -I started watching porn when I was 18 and it just took off. I would download like crazy but never got any myself. Looking back, my biggest problem was that I would masturbate with a semi-erection and would ejaculate with it, just to get going fast. Now I see what a full erection is on my body and yeah, what a screw up on my part.
    -I have an appointment with a urologist to discuss this odd white patch on my unit. I don't know if it's impacting my sex life or not, but a slight bend to the left came with it when I'm soft, but when I'm hard I go straight as an arrow with no pain.
    -I have noticed that I do go soft a little more quickly than I would like.
    -I have noticed a low sex drive since I started to watch porn and masturbating felt very mechanical.
    -My sex life has been pretty decent. Sometimes I can pull it off, but other times I just lose it and it's no sex. My gf is very understanding and tells me we'll get it next time. She's been great about it, but I want to be normal and I want to be able to do it every time. I'm still young enough that I shouldn't have ED from physical symptoms, barring the possibility of the patch addressed above.

    I am now four weeks into a reboot. I am starting to notice things I haven't since before watching porn. I have the desire to want sex more and more and more, sometimes it peaks and I totally shut down and just need it there and then. Sometimes I get hard with that and other times not. I do take Maca to help boost my drive and have seen results with it but even when I'm off it, I get the urges. I was getting zero boners alone for the first three weeks of the reboot but they are really starting to fire back up of late. I get crazy feelings down there all the time like I'm ready to go, but I don't always get a boner with it.

    My question is, does this seem like good progress at this point? I'm hopeful this is done and over with within the next month or so but as you can imagine, it can be a little frustrating at times! Any advice, encouragement and support, as always, is very appreciated!

      I'm afraid I don't have any advice to give you, except keep it up ! you seem to be on the right path. Porn is just brain pollution IMO. If you're here you might be interested in PE'ing, it could also improve your sex life dramatically. I'm just getting started but I can already see results, and just browsing the progress and success forums you can see how happier it made some people.

        I'm afraid to get into too much PE tbh. I'm very happy with my size and it gives me what I need. What I need to do is maintain longer erections and be able to better control my orgasms because pre-ejac is a problem. I've started doing kegels and I'm finding that I'm getting early results.

        Another recent issue seems to be caffeine. When I take it, I'm ok at first but once it wears off, I start to lose libido, but it comes back within about six hours (this is of course just what I'm noticing this week). I'm switching some workout supplements to get rid of caffeine gradually to see if this helps.

        I really think this is going to be a great success for me. I'm open to taking an ED pill for a bit to get my confidence going because I can see this has been helping people online quite a bit.

          PE can be understood as "Penis Exercise" ! Not necessarily "enlargement".

            Are there any that help to maintain erections? Again, I like kegels because it uses my own body rather than using equipment.

              Thought I would give a small update on this one:

              -unfortunately, I have lost my job. I am highly qualified and things are starting to look up. But I think this has killed my sex drive. But now that things are starting to look promising, I have noticed it starting to rise up.

              -I have started masturbating again. I don't use porn, but rather just think of my girl and I focus on how good the strokes feels on my penis. I am able to get fully erect with that. I have read conflicting articles online about the correlation between masturbation and sex drive. What I am noticing is a general increase in my drive so I am really hoping here.

              -My relationship is still going well. She's frustrated but patient. She loves me with all her heart and I know this isn't easy on her, but I know it will pay off. Should my recovery not go according to plan or schedule, I will likely take 5 mg of Cialis for a few weeks to get my confidence back and should be all set from there. The killer part is that she hasn't been as intimate lately, but I can see how the two tie together.

              I'm nervous about it all but with items like Cialis out there as a last ditch bail out alternative, I am very confident in this. I'm going to claim back my sex life and I am convinced this is going to be a distant memory.
