    I have a severe problem. I can't hold an erection on my knees or while standing. I can only get it while lying down. As soon as I try and move, my erection slowly goes away.

    Please, please, please stick to the topic. How did you overcome this? I need answers.

    I am far past the "90 day" goal mark. I thought I would be "healed" (although some people take longer than others, I understand) by now.

    I've looked through some threads but I can't find many answers. I read one case of someone masturbating while standing up, so they could train themselves and they said it worked.

    I've been doing no masturbation and porn since January 1st. It's been 190 days. I was supposed to go the whole year without masturbation but if masturbating will help me towards getting standing erections, I will do it.

    I sure hope the answer is out there. To be honest, I'm terrified this is going to be the rest of my life, never being able to have normal erections. Please help.

    I have similar problems and am now seeing a sexologist. If yours will be from the same school as mine he'll probabl give you some exercises which you'll learn and then with them try to reconnect/reintegrate the concept of moving with your sexuality! B/c if like me you are a p-addict (btw. congrats on your impressive recovery!) Your sexuality until now meant sitting/lying (and whatching & clicking - but that part you already were able to cut out!). In a way you are conditioned not to move your body body except your arms and legs to expect sexual stimulation and when you try to move it kinda throughs you off balance. You'll have to "(re)learn" that.

    Beware though many sexologists don't "believe" in p-addiction.
    Also you'll want a sexologist with a psychological background nd not some snakeoil salesman or sth.

    Good luck!

    A sexologist? I've never heard of that before. What kind of exercises do they have you performing?
