    Hey guys

    New here, so i'll introduce myself. Been Addicted to PMO since I was 13-14ish, I am 23 years old now and have been PMOing several times a day up until now. I had severe social anxiety before and lost my virginity when I turned 22. When I was with the girl I lost my virginity to, I couldn't maintain an erection for more than a minute. That combined with the fact that I didnt know what I was doing because of lack of experience made me depressed (This was all around 5 months ago).

    I found out about nofap around 2 months ago and I think that my ED problems might be because of my porn addiction and deathgrip. For the last two moths I have tried NoFap (no PMO) twice but relapsed after a week both times. I have started a new streak now and am on day 7 today, and feeling very depressed. I havent had morning wood, any urges, nothing at all. Dont know whats gonna happen at the end of this or if its even gonna help me. My anxieties feed into my depression, I keep thinking about how am I ever gonna be with a girl if I cant have sex. I fell restless, bored and spend too much time thinking about the same stuff over and over again. Have any of you had similar experiences? What should i expect as I move forward and is what I am experiencing now normal?

    Hey man,

    Experience and endure the full force of your emotions, it is the release of what PMO has kept trapped under the surface for your almost ten years of fapping. Masturbation traps our underlying feeling within our subconsciousness, by dulling our experience of them. By not experiencing them fully how can we address the issue? We don't even know the full extent of the issue. It's like burying a bomb under the sand instead of defusing it.

    It will get better. I'm on the other side of the world and I believe that you will succeed. DO NOT GIVE UP. Your urges are gone now but they will come back in full force FOR REAL WOMEN. In time.

    I have also suffered from severe social anxiety and I know how painful it can be. What is worth more, small momentary relief from masturbating or addressing your almost constant social anxiety?

    I know you'll pick wisely.

    Go conquer the world.

    Welcome, truc777,
    Your story sounds a lot like mine. When I had my first relationship with a woman, I couldn't maintain an erection until I gave up porn and fapping for about a week.
    I have tried nofap several times before finding this site. People who have been on this journey longer than me say life is better on the other side. It certainly can't get worse. Stay strong.

    relationships should be valued for emotional value- sex is just the topping.

    I understand that but not being able to have sex has to be a deal breaker.
