    Do you sleep or end up sleeping on your front?

    Isn't morning wood reliant on dopamine as well though?

    I've noticed wet dreams almost always happen when I sleep too much (10+ hours).

    In that article, with "dopamine" they refers to visual erotic stimuli or fantasy-induced erections, something that happens when you see something erotic and you get an erection. During sleep it doesn't depends on dopamine.

    I see. Why do people lose morning wood when they have PIED though? I don't get that.

    Just my opinion, but I think it doesn't depends by PIED. I currently still have PIED but under nopmo I have morning wood and wet dreams, something I never had in the past even when I was a teenager hooked to masturbation but without porn. It probably depends on how much you stress your D. I guess that also men with no PIED that have sex daily and maybe more than once a day, still doesn't have morning woods at night.

    Idk man, I think you try something new if this hasn’t improved anything in 4 years. Will waiting another year just for the same problems be worth it?

    I'm on day 40, I don't have erections and no wet dreams, I wanted to add that in other series when it happened that I didn't have erections this pushed me to have sex especially with prostitutes and everything was working normally then I realized that it is my brain that is deceiving me to give it dopamine, once the brain's dependence on dopamine is over I will return to normal there is nothing that doesn't Don't worry, it's just a trick of my brain.

    I am day 151 in a row, no PMO, no sex
    deep in the flatline
    Depression, anhedonia, insomnia,
    No erections, no sex drive.

    I trust God in the recovery process. Glad to not have to be acting out today.

    Quit this habit while you're young boys. Recovery when you are 40+ is very tough.

    I'm over 40 too, things seem to be improving very slowly, I think you need more time and maybe I do too.

    Yes, I can feel things improving very slowly.

    I am trying to help the process with good sleep, daily exercise, prayer, good routine, healthy diet, supplements and vitamins, and so on.
