Cliffs- - Erection half the size it used to be - Want to know if this has happened to anyone else through fapping - Want to know it if it changed during reboot - How long did it take, was full recovery made? Mad props
I can't speak for the recovery, but I have to admit mine have severely suffered in the past two years. I've had long streaks with infrequent pmo before...and long streaks with excessive. I think the real binges have come in the past couple of years and I do notice that size seems small, perhaps not half but smaller. I remember not fapping for a week, meeting up with a girlfriend (four or five years ago) and having a monster (okay to me it was)....but with the last girlfriend when my addiction worsened I remember telling myself something seemed off. Another big factor is weight gain. If you're still getting rock solid, and it's shorter it could be from that. I know they say ten pounds equals a half inch or something of the sorts. I'd go read though some success stories to see if there's any other cases.
I don't think your erection can't get smaller through fapping. You mean that it goes limp. It might not be rock solid as it used to be earlier, prior to years of incessant fapping but not smaller. But, one thing you can be sure of that your erections would be harder and more massive after a reboot. So, don't worry. )
Yeah, when I say it's smaller, I do notice that it's not as filled with blood etc as it could be (and used to be). I've had some experience with cialis because of this. The cialis helped, erection was a lot stronger/larger than since I developed my problem so I'm hoping not fapping + cialis would do the trick next time I'm waith a girl. Shame that my longest NoFap streak so far has been only 3 weeks -.-
Actually, at the height of my fapping I did see my erection get smaller. How often were fapping? When I was at my worst I was fapping two, sometimes three, times a day everyday. Yes, it was bad. Anyway, at that point my erections were smaller. My theory is that my body was tired and possibly low amount of semen. Mind you my theory is just that a theory. I have not been able to prove or disprove my theory. All I know is that when I didn't fap for a few days my erections got back to their full size, until I fell back into my multiple times a day every day fapping habit. I hope this helps.
Yeah, similar amounts of fapping actually. Quite roughly too. I think perhaps it is hard to become fully aroused, maybe similar to fapping induced erectile dysfunction? Only instead of having no erection, it's just a way smaller one
Yup. Once you've gone without fapping for a few days you should see improvement. Your friend just needs time to recover.
Yup, that sounds like porn induced ED. The problem is in your brain - it adjusts to receiving the dopamine and craves more and more. That's why we start doing it more frequently and looking at more hardcore or new and different material, looking for that rush. It also explains why it's harder to get a full erection. My understanding is that typical ED meds cannot remedy this because of what has happened in the brain. There's only one way out... NoFap... I'm on Day 4 and getting crazy urges. No girlfriend at the moment either so I have no way of getting relief. I just hope I can get better erections by the time I meet the right girl! Good luck to you!
