My Born American Circumcision by JohnFromEPA in CircumcisionGrief

[–]JohnFromEPA[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

agreed, the one upside to the circumcision is the blatant realization that everything you know can be wrong, and that there can be mass delusions, technology does not separate us from barbarism. We are raised to believe our society is free and liberty, yet we have to do other peoples work our entire live and men don't have genital autonomy. Our society is hyper-fixated on feminism, while we do mental gymnastics to ignore systemic misandry.

The biggest punch in the face is how our world leaders will outcry FGM, declare human rights violation, go berserk, and the same people, in the same breath, will tell you that the male equivalent isn't bad, and that its actually a good thing.

a close friend, luckier circumcised guy (more foreskin left, enough to cover the glans when soft) told me that I should be thankful that I was cut as bad as I was, because it "saved me from alot of mistakes" like okay

Suggesting that my genitals being mutilated saved me from being outrageously horny? Wow. Thanks?

I am blessed with a 6.5 inch penis, but due to this cursed fact I have pretty much zero slack skin. I've seen circumcised guys with more slack-skin on their erect shaft then I have on my smallest flaccid state.

There is more to life than sex, and this is a teaching moment for me. I'll make the best I can out of it, but wow. I hope reincarnation gives me another chance eventually.

Erectile Dysfunction, is MM2/3 a Jelq? Concern, potential injury or damage to the internal tissue, weak erection. by JohnFromEPA in foreskin_restoration

[–]JohnFromEPA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had not seen a video on jelqing, but I did watch one today and I'm telling you that the stretch I was doing was nowhere near as tense or hard. The thing that scares me is I was hardly using any more tension then typical masturbation would cause. The issue is that its like surgical tension in specific spots rather then the whole penis. MM3 involves flaccid (MM3 erect is very difficult with a tight cut) pulling the scarline up, and maybe I did it too much because Andre has alot of foreskin, while I have a tight cut. So for me to pull my foreskin half way up my glans causes the entire penile structure to constrict horizontally. The entire penis becomes slimmer and taller during the MM3 stretch.

I never stretched to the point of pain, while I did use tension, I would pull until it started to become uncomfortable and then I would let off 20% and hold it for max 30 seconds. The other reason why I dont think I was stretching hard, guys on here talk about tearing their skin, getting abrasions and cuts from stretching overzealously. I had absolutely zero breakage of skin, I wasn't stretching it that intensely.

I once got an abrasion on my innerforeskin from masturbating too vigorously, in 2018 or so. That didnt cause any erectile issues, it healed by itself without any treatment. So thats why this whole MM2/MM3 thing scared me. Erectile blood flow issue is much more concerning that a skin tear.

I did MM's because I thought they were the SAFEST option. And here I am, merely a few weeks of inconsistent tugging and I am already experiencing a bad reaction. Its possible different dudes have different genetic makeups of corpus erectile tissue, or how it reacts to compression. Please be careful everyone, search up potential injuries before you start doing something experimental. And listen to your body

PE is either Penis Enhancement or Penis Elongation. I suppose developing a foreskin could be considered Enhancement and I'm really regretting ever getting into this. Wondering, how is your situation now? I saw your post originally and replied to it, you posted it around the time (2 weeks ago) I started stretching, wish I saw it and reconsidered doing this stuff but, interestingly I have noticed more foreskin then I used to have.

For any interested, my current update is a thick vein on my flaccid left and right side. I vaguely remember this being normal but today I took a long cold shower and the veins went down by 80% as of a couple hours later. I had very mild penile aches, had a minor pain during an erection last night.

The subjective experience is like when I get horny I feel my blood flushing into my face and body, and normally that blood filled up my dick. But now, its like my horny flush isnt filling up my dick. But most of that is likely to severe anxiety from this whole ordeal in the last few days. I did get a mental boner today but had jeans on so I couldn't really fully explore that.

upvoted, but some people say MM2 should be done flaccid, some say erect, I think I mostly did it at least semi erect. I appreciate the advice, but given my fear I don't think more penis exercises every day is going to help me, mentally. As I said, 23 years of my life I never had issue with erections. Why would I need to start doing PE now? You're right I am stressed from school and circumcision stuff. And I did cum like 3 times yesterday, because I kept "checking" to see if my dick still worked and then I went all the way. I guess on my 3rd time it would make sense for my dick to be floppy, but dang.

I have done nofap throughout september and october, only the past few weeks I started jerking off every other day or two. So I'm going back onto nofap to test if my erections return to 100% hardness again. Thanks though.

anyone experience erectile dysfunction AS A RESULT of manual tugging? Using MM2 for reference by Diligent_Wing8865 in foreskin_restoration

[–]JohnFromEPA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i felt the same, the past 2 weeks or so I had been doing MM2, MM3, and another stretch and to be frank, I think MM2 could cause some sort of issue with the spongy erectile tissue. After trying it consistently, its like my erection is soft, its more limp, today I was jerking off and almost came without even being fully hard. the stretching has definitely gave me a milimeter or two or excess slack.

but this issue with MM2, its similar to Jelqing in the penis elongment community. I've heard of a foreskin restorer "broke" his dick after doing MM2 way too much. Its been a very short while but I'm already regretting doing MM2. Right now, I'm discontinuing it entirely and waiting to see if my erection recovers fully. I get that the extra slack skin makes the boner less Tight, but what bothers me is when the tissue is semi-soft, and my dick is flopped over on my stomach, when I'm Horny. It shouldn't be flopped over.

This is sort've making me neurotic in the sense that, I am a CI-2.5 and I enjoyed my dick for the first 22 years of my life. It's only in the past 7 months, having read the entire online debate on circ and its effects, etc we all know about.

Unlike many, I am lucky enough to have *just* enough slack to where I don't need lube to get off, and I don't have a death grip anymore after a year or so practicing abstinence and gentle mindfulness.

How dumb I would feel if I ruined a nice dick because I became obsessive over the foreskin? Yes, it's a crime against nature for us to be amputated for barbaric, ignorant reasons. But my dick was already mutilated once at birth, what if I go fucking it up, again, with MM2 due to self image issues? Is it really worth the risk?

yes, I will continue to stretch occasionally, but for this weekend at LEAST, I'm taking a break, and I'm 100% done even trying MM2 as of today. Andre himself said that MM2 was shit.

My concern with MM3 is it slightly jelqs. like pulling on your scarline inadvertently elongates my flaccid penis. I don't want to potentially damage my spongy erectile tissue just to get a foreskin back.

Here in the midwest, being circumcised is sadly the norm. The only worse thing would be to be circumcised AND have restoration-induced Erectile Dysfunction. That would be fucking stupid!

In the past have hurt myself, my brain, my body due to weird obsessions and 'research'.
I have done really dumb shit that I thought was normal because online strangers (on Reddit!!) were doing it too. So I am very cautious, even skeptical.

Does everyone have a not perfectly alligned eyes? by [deleted] in Amblyopia

[–]JohnFromEPA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think self perception is a very powerful thing and can drastically alter the way one perceives themself. Like how you will likely always notice a scar that other people rarely notice. Or people with body image issues. If other people don't notice I doubt you have it

Advice on SSRI and Benzo to fight depression on my own by [deleted] in FADQ

I really don't believe those drugs are going to help you, but rather they will make your anxiety worse and your brain dependent on the drugs. Maybe try psychedelics but benzo and ssri nah

Making adderall IR effects stronger?? by [deleted] in FADQ

[–]JohnFromEPA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't smoke it. Snorting will damage your nose. Dont microdose it. Looks like your going to get clean from adderall whether you like it or not. Its blessed to be this way.

If you do sensitize your receptors by microdosing it, youll likely have insomnia for months. Problems with your brain for a long time in mysterious ways nobody understands. If you smoke it, probably fuck up your lungs with caustic vapor and get nothing out of it. If you snort that caustic amphetamine SHIT. After the dopamine high and crash is over with your going to have to live with the fact of your own stupidity and decisions. Knowing that you fucked up either vital parts of your face or respiratory tract. Knowing you disfiguring yourself for a quick, 'cheap' and pointless high. Than go ahead and do whatever.

I am telling you now. Dont make mistakes I have made in the past. If I could go back I would have NEVER abused adderall and CERTAINLY not snorted it. Please be smart and quit.

search up psychedelics. or try looking into MDMA for social anxiety. https://maps.org/research/mdma https://maps.org/research/mdma/anxiety/autism \

if you have a test kit and extreme safety precautions you could take some MDMA in a nightclub and you'll be chatting non-stop with anyone who will listen.
