    Hi guys, I'm brand new here. Literally like a minute ago. I started my Nofap journey on 19th April. My birthday was on the 10th, I turned 30 and figured I'd do a month as a sort of milestone. Never knowing what nofap was. Also quit smoking at around the same time. Anyway I have been masturbating to porn for longer than I can even remember. Maybe since 13... i used the death grip and I masturbated frequently like up to 3/4 a day sometimes. The most out there content I ever watched was transwoman open but not frequently it wasn't a "thing". Anyway while on this journey I have had sex once with my girlfriend and it was amazing, I felt like my natural sensation was returning because I had kinda been desensitized after all those years of faping and I also used to last forever and not ejaculate. No problem with erections whatsoever... fast forward to a couple of days ago, unfortunately I relapsed. Fapd to open for 2 days. 1 night time session and 1 in the morning. But stopped after that. The same night my penis couldn't get hard and this is like day 4 of my flatline. I get morning wood but like 75% what I used to be. The problem is my girlfriend has no idea what I'm going thru and she wants to link up tonight and probably have sex. I haven't told her because I haven't had the chance, we haven't been face to face since this all began. Tonight is our 3 month anniversary and I hate that htiseverything has all coincided now but I just ahvethought to tell her. The crappy thing is that I love her a lot and she's been sob horny nadaf wanted tonight to be super special. I've been suffering alone, this whole journey I've been having extreme withdrawal from porn which messed with my pre existing depression and also brought on terrible anxiety which I've never had. Today is the best I've felt all week.

    Anyway long story short what should I tell her, how do I tell her even? And then how long will my flatline last and once it's gone can I continue having sex till ejaculation or should I take a couple of months off sex completely. I am totally unsure about any of these details. Please any help anyone can give me will be deeply appreciated. I'm kinda at the end of my rope. My goal is to kick my porn addiction and train my brain to need a real woman and not pixels. Thanks. Any help is truly appreciated.

    Goose, I have built up a large document of resources that may be of assistance. Would you like me to send it to you? You may also send me a PM if you like.

    I'm a partner of an addict with DE. When the two of you had sex did you have DE did you O at all? Did you have to use your hand to O? I ask these questions because if any of these things happen on a regular basis with her she knows something is not right. I knew three months in as well. I never dealt with DE and it is very unsettling to us females but I had to confront my partner about his use of PMO and death grip and even then he lied about the extent of use, denied it was a problem and continued doing it and lying to me for almost a year. I would have liked him to be honest with me early on. You need to tell her everything. Know that she may leave you but it's unfair of you to keep this from her and drag her along on a journey she never consented too. It is a VERY difficult road for partners. If she decides to stick it out then at least she can help you if she knows your plan. I know you are embarrassed but a relationship built on lies will never last.

    Hi GG2002.
    Thanks for your reply. When we had sex I did not have DE, never have. I did O though. But funny enough before nofap I always used to have to use my hand to O because I took to long to from sex. I have been honest with her about everything though right from the beginning and I have told her about doing nofap and all that comes with it and she says she's going to support me.

    I sent it to you as a PM. Check your inbox. Yes I could have just sent it, but especially considering it is a large resource packed with info, I prefer not to potentially spam people.
