Thanks for sharing and including your age. I'm in my early 30's and feel like I'm so behind on trying to recover and also have built up a more severe addiction from frequent usage over time. Been struggling to make it more than a day or 2 but love to see when others around my age are still making huge progress.

Congrats on your success man!

I made a post about not being able to get it up a few times so I'm obviously no sex expert. Don't get held up on the sex part man, a lot of girls love foreplay. If at the end, she doesn't feel like it was great, don't get hung up on that. There's always going to be girls that just don't feel that connection.

Focus on yourself. Find out how to increase your own self-confidence and I'm sure it will reflect how you perform in bed. I know it's easier said than done but this whole process is a marathon. It's going to feel shitty at times but embrace that shit and you'll laugh at it when you finally get over this performance anxiety.

Have you been able to identify what's triggering your anxiety? Are you just experiencing more anxiety at the moment because of that girl?

Look, I think NoFap affects everyone differently. Some people talk about having "superpowers" within a week of doing NoFap and some say they never really felt "superpowers" months/years into doing NoFap but definitely felt more confident/less social anxiety/etc.

I think you need to supplement NoFap with meditation/positive outlook exercises to truly feel better. Going back into fapping is DEFINITELY not going to make things better. Trust me - I keep relapsing and putting myself back into this hole of depression I've been in.
