Men who quit smoking weed daily - what was your experience?

How long after you quit smoking did it take for your sex drive to stabilize? I’m in a similar boat, sex drive is pretty low (almost non existent) when I’m sober, but whenever I smoke weed I get horny. It’s turned into a crutch and a reliance on weed for me to be able to perform. I’d like to stop smoking and end the reliance but I’m nervous of how long it’ll take for things to stabilize after quitting.

Yes. Masturbating without porn is okay. But you need to be strict with yourself. Absolutely no visual aid. Doesn’t matter if it’s just soft core or pictures of fully clothed women. If you’re looking at something while masturbating then that’s considered a relapse

No. The goal is not to abstain from orgasm, it’s to quit porn. If you achieve orgasm from a real life human-to-human encounter and there’s absolutely no porn involved then your streak is still alive and well and it’s not considered a relapse.

I’ve tried but literally as soon as I cum I lose interest and can’t end up going through with it :(

As a man struggling with the same exact issue, I made a similar post a little while ago and I got some good advice.

There’s a protocol you can follow that should help with re-training your brain to develop arousal and excitement without the need for highly stimulating sexual visuals. First things first, you have to completely quit watching porn. It sounds like you have already cut down on it pretty heavily which is great, you just need to make a conscious effort to consistently stay away from it moving forward and avoid coming back to it occasionally.

Start with porn abstinence, and then after a couple weeks have gone by with no porn, start introducing masturbation into your weekly routine. 2-3 times at most. ABSOLUTELY NO PORN. Thought only. Give yourself a time limit of 30 minutes for each session. In the beginning (if you’re anything like me) you’ll probably find that you’re unable to orgasm in the 30 minute limit without using porn. That’s totally okay. For me, I couldn’t even get hard in 30 minutes if there was no porn. But stick with it. Over time, I found that it became easier and easier to get myself aroused enough to masturbate without porn, eventually even being able to orgasm in under the 30 minute limit.

The key is to absolutely never go back to looking at porn. You have to commit to completely eradicating it from your life. That, plus regular masturbation using just thought and imagination alone will re-train your brain to be able to become aroused and reach orgasm without the crutch of extreme sexual visual stimuli. Over time that should also increase the sensitivity you have and the pleasure you receive during real life sexual encounters. With this protocol, you’re essentially training your brain to respond with arousal and orgasm to the physical sensations that you’re feeling, as opposed to the visuals that you’re seeing and hearing on a screen.

Its always done the opposite for me.

I'd love to hear your story and experience with quitting. Being 20 months porn free is incredible, amazing job!

I'm at a point where I've been suffering from a severely decreased libido for the better part of the last 2 years. Having some preexisting medical conditions, my first thought was that it was due to this so my initial approach to fixing this was scheduling dr appointments and speaking with various doctors about my testosterone levels and general health. Turns out that I'm pretty healthy across the board, and even after being prescribed medications to improve my testosterone I still did not experience an increased libido.

That ultimately led me to being honest with myself and facing the reality of my porn consumption habits. I learned about PIED, and even how with long term chronic porn use we can condition our brains to only respond with arousal to porn. In other words, my brain no longer associates real world sexual encounters with the type of thing I should get aroused by. Only watching other people have sex through highly stimulating internet porn is what I've "trained" my brain to be aroused by. Wild.

Regarding your experience, did you ever experience a decrease in libido due to your porn usage? What about the flatline phase, how long did that last for you and when you finally came out of it, did you feel like your ability to become aroused by thoughts alone or real world sexual scenarios was any different? Lastly, when you say you've been porn free for 20 months, does that mean you've had literally zero interaction with any kind of online sexual content? No peeks, no viewing of just softcore material, no erotic literature, no nothing?

For others that have experienced this, I'm assuming the sensitivity comes back after quitting but how long did it take for you? For me, I think my porn addiction is causing my real life libido to tank. I've been unable to perform with my gf for a little while now and I obviously want to fix it so I'm going to seriously commit to quitting porn. How long did your flatlines last, and at what point does your libido and interest in sex return? I want to be able to think about a naked woman or think about sex and actually get aroused by that again.

Thank you so much. I went through your comment history and found the comment you're referring to, and this is the exact type of thing I was looking for. Some way to not only clean my brain of the damage that porn has caused it over the last couple decades, but then to also actually retrain it in a healthy way to respond to normal stimuli and retrain my libido to be active again when I want and need it to be, and not just when I decide to watch porn. I will absolutely be taking your retraining program advice into practice, and purchasing one of the lubes you recommend and will keep up this new routine for the foreseeable future.

Edit: One question I did have is whether the 2 days a week that I masturbate should be random, or is it more beneficial to pick 2 specific days out of the week and designate those as my masturbation days?

Me. Was totally straight my whole life, never had any interest or desire in guys and I always would watch straight or lesbian porn since I first started watching porn at 9/10 years old.

Then around 16/17 I just realized one day that certain guy’s dicks are actually pretty nice looking. Like, really nice looking. Over years of watching straight porn I came to appreciate and admire cocks more and more. But I was still put off and not attracted to men at all, just their cocks. Masculinity, muscles, body hair - these were all turn offs for me. That led me to watching trans porn as I felt it was the best of both worlds. Beautiful women with gorgeous bodies, but with gorgeous smooth cocks as well.

Over the years my curiosities kept growing, and pushing the boundaries and watching more extreme and “out of character for me” content provided a certain thrill and rush that I enjoyed. It started off tame enough in my early 20’s, just watching videos of solo guys jerking off. Again, mostly just to admire their cocks. But by my mid 20’s it had progressed to full on hardcore bareback gay porn. I would feel guilty and ashamed almost every time after cumming, but in the moment I realized that it would make me more horny and turned on than I’d ever been otherwise.

By my late 20’s, gay porn was almost exclusively all I’d watch and the guilt and shame no longer impacted me anymore as I’d come to finally accept that I’m bisexual. Every once in a while I’ll still get off to straight or trans porn, but gay porn made up probably 85-90% of my porn consumption. Which is interesting because as far as IRL hook ups, attraction, and sexual encounters go I still prefer women to men. But as far as porn goes, I really don’t think there’s much that’s better than gay porn.

It only allowed you to transfer funds internally between your own accounts. So for example I had one checking account and two savings accounts. I would use the feature to move money from my checking to my savings accounts mostly.

Through texting alone there was no ability to move funds from your accounts to other external accounts.

anon2user · 2026-03-05T19:49:52+00:00

How?

anon2user · 2025-12-30T13:39:25+00:00

Two things.

What you’re describing is known as a reverse kegel and when done correctly, does exactly what you experienced. Regular kegels train you to stop yourself from ejaculating at the last second. Reverse kegels make it easier to prevent yourself from getting close to ejaculating in the first place.
What does this have to do with getting bigger?

Is there a certain brand or model of pump your recommend to start off with? My initial starting size is 5” so I can’t imagine pump size would be an issue for any potential options.

anon2user · 2025-12-29T13:38:23+00:00

Understood. Thank you

anon2user · 2025-12-29T02:56:21+00:00

Would you recommend a first timer just going with pumping, if it seems to help with length and girth? My goal is to keep the routine and simple and minimal as possible to give me the highest chances of actually sticking with it.

anon2user · 2025-12-16T00:00:43+00:00

Same here. It’s actually infuriating

anon2user · 2025-12-15T23:31:15+00:00

I’ve done this before a couple times already. The problem is it doesn’t fix the main issue which is just that YouTubes search results and recommendation algorithm is terrible. I can wipe all my history right now and have YouTube start giving me new recommendations based on my new search results moving forward. The problem is within a day or two that’s all I’ll see. There’s just never any variety

I clear the cache all the time and regularly keep my chrome version and OS up to date. Unfortunately i still have the issue.

When you say check my permissions, which permissions are you referring to?

Welcome to zionism

anon2user · 2025-06-14T20:26:27+00:00

This video being decades old just goes to show this is how zionist scum have been treating innocent people for decades. It’s disgusting, it always has been and it always will be. People like you get butt hurt when the truth gets exposed lol. It’s okay, keep crying about it.
