    So I got PIED or at least I think I do. Got ED for around a year, didn't notice until I was about to have sex. Not 100% sure it's PIED tho. Went to doctor's doctors and did all the blood tests (estro, testo, prolactin) and all was good. I am 27 by the way. Then did Doppler and all is good too. So far stayed away 120 days away from PMO and 60 from NoFap. Had sex on Ed drugs a couple of times tho. Sex was with GF. Do I have PiED? Seems I have no Libido until I have a break from any sex for 7 days. I started to get Morning woods, some are strong. Semi erections during the day but only when I walk, so is it pants friction? I don't want to test it on porn, so what do I do?

    Some guys need over a year or longer to recover, due to excessive use of porn.
    Are you physically interested in your girlfriend?
    Is she the type of woman that arouses you, just from looking at her naked?
    How long did you watch porn?
    And i dont get the 120/60 days, although i am assuming you mean that you didn't watch porn for 120 days and didn't masturbate or orgasm'd the second half of those 120 days. Is that correct?

    Are you comfortable around your girlfriend or is there any tension between you and her?
    It could also be psychological with you thinking you have to perform to make her happy and ultimately form a psychological barrier in your head that keeps you from enjoying it and your dick not doing what you want your little love-warrior to do.

    Yeah I am attracted to her. I don't even get erections when I am alone, if I would edge I would get like a 40-50% weak erection. Two days ago for example woke up with super strong morning wood. I have done 120 no pmo and 60 no masturbation, I relapsed and masturbated but with no porn.

    I would leave the edging be for now. Just ignore your dick and don't touch it for however long you need.

    And i know how fucking hard and difficult that is.
    Some people here needed a year and longer for all of the symptoms to go away. The 90day rule is a myth and should just be seen as a general guideline.

    Do it as long as you have to to get normal erections with a regular girl. And if you are able to have sex normally on regular bases, that is when you can think about masturbation.
    I still would recommend not to though.

    But make the recovery first priority.

    I edged just to see if I can even get erect. It was 1-2 times just to see. What do you think about sex on Ed meds?

    I think it is the worst idea ever, because of the reasoning behind it.
    Instead of focussing on natural recover, you make yourself dependend on outside medicine, which also might not work anymore after a while.

    It also suggests that you think you "have to" perform in the bedroom to not lose the girl.

    If you get to the point where you lie naked next to each other, being at the most vulnerable, performance is the last thing you should be thinking about.

    But i see where you are coming from. I have been there as well, way before i started on this site and even knowing about it. It happened after i was with a girl i had a strong connection to and we seperated physically, but i wanted to see her again later and "force" myself to have perfect erections if we see each other again.
    So i tried "training my dick" with Kegels and holding a towel up as well as edging in the shower. I even used porn to get erect, noticing that even that didn't work properly.

    I am going to fight porn for the rest of my life. Probably will never watch it again, just so i can have the CHANCE of sleeping with a girl again and that being beautiful. Preparing for the chance of having sex is good enough for me to never watch porn ever again, as well as abstaining from masturbation or edging as long as i possibly can.

    Fight with us, brother
     
  7. Porn will do this to you man. It completely rewires the brain and sooner or later your penis is only going to respond to what your brain has learned is arousing, this can be porn in general or fetishes in case of severe, advanced addiction.
    It's been just over a year for me since I last saw porn, I had sissy fetish, only now am starting to have somewhat normal erections thinking about straight sex again (without Mo'ing of course). I still get the ocassional sissy/porn fantasy and still can get hard over that, but the straight fantasy erections come as a huge relief. So it can take a really long time. It's been a year and I feel nowhere near recovered. I'm sure I'd have no problem getting erections for a woman in real life but in terms of fantasy it's a completely different story. Once you've developed an artificial sexual taste or fetish they are extremely hard to get rid of. I guess it affects everyone differently but once you can't get an erection for a woman in real life alarms should go off in any case. Porn is just so unhealthy. It will quite literally make you ill and steal your dreams away.
