Time to change

Hi guys. I've read alot of stuff on this site, and the stories I hear are really inspiring and positive. I've finally decided to start my NoFap journey, and currently on my 6th day (I think...I've kinda lost count).

I'll give you guys a bit of background into myself. I'm 30. Ever since I could remember, I've always watched porn, and I'm talking probably 10-15 years. And as you'd imagine, I masturbated to porn too, if I wanted to masturbate, it was through porn, and that's it. Most days I'd masturbate once, other days, twice. I wish I knew the problems it was doing to me in the long run, especially in relationships.

About two months ago, I was away on holiday with my partner for the first time in person, we've been together for about 6 months now, long distance. Anyway, as you'd imagine, one night, things got a bit steamy in the bedroom, and then when I had her on her back, fully naked, legs open, I just couldn't get an erection, it was just limp and it just wouldn't get hard. At this point, I was scared. In the back of my mind I was asking myself if I had ED. This really, really messed me up. It's something I heard about before, but I never thought I would have it. I'm a very healthy eater, and I power walk quite often, so I stay active.

I have no problems getting erections if I want one, although, it's a bit more challenging without porn. I haven't had morning wood in a while, I can't remember when I did last. I had a very minor erection when I woke up in the middle of the night.

I'm confident that I have PIED, and I've kicked off my NoFap streak. I'll keep you all updated on any changes I come across.

But I do need to say that porn and masturbation is an evil sin in our lives. And I only just realised what it did to me when I tried to have sex. When you want to watch porn, but you're trying to hold back, the devil himself is convincing you that it's ok, and that it causes no harm. We all need to stop this, for our health and wellbeing, and for our present and future partners, relationship and happiness.
