    Hello,

    I'm new here. I've been lurking these forums for quite a few days and decided to take the plunge to register on this site. What happens if you don't have a porn addiction but still struggle with excessive masturbation at times? Can I still benefit with posting here?

    I'm married with four children. I don't think I've ever gone a month without MO (many times due to stress or groin discomfort).

    I decided to try and get some help. I have noticed more frequencies of erectile dysfunction during sex and difficulty of getting aroused properly with my wife at times. Is this normal with those with masturbation issues? Will this pass if I stop?

    So far I'm 1 week without. It's been difficult but I've stayed the course. My libido crashed for a few days but seems to be coming back. Heck, it's been all over the place lately.

    Eric

    Well give it a try. Having ED was I
    and giving up Excessive PM
    was very helpful.

    Sharing this change with my SO committed me
    and got me further support.

    Post here, process and learn.

    Many on here , realize they had the addiction to M BEFORE porn was even introduced, so yes I think you are in the right place for support!

    Yes, I masturbate without the use of porn. Is the method to break the addiction the same? Is it 90 days about right?

    I want to have normal arousal again.

    Some people here think any P or M in a relationship amounts to an addiction. If you can think at one moment that porn use is a betrayal of your wife and that you want to stop, and yet still find yourself using porn at another time, then perhaps it is useful to think of your porn usage as an addiction even if it does not hit a medical professional's checklist for an addiction. Compulsive behaviour that negatively impacts you, those around you and your relationships is behaviour worth getting help in quitting. I find it helpful, even though I am reluctant to conceive of myself as an addict. You don't need to be in the worst possible situation to benefit from help.
