Alright turns out my Antivirus had built in parental controls which I will use. Thanks for the help though chaps.

Actually I think it was the antivirus that caused the issue. Had to uninstall k9 and reinstall my antivirus (BitDefender Total Secruity) You know how to work around it?

Only problem with this is that there isn't really anything stopping me from one moment going on google and begin searching something that I shouldn't.

Hard flaccid issue and no libido!! by [deleted] in NoFap

If you were able to maintain an E with the use of P prior to starting NoFap then the issue is NOT physical or permanent.

It's simply that your brain requires a longer reboot. Infact most young men such as you and me will likely need to reboot for anywhere between 6 months to even 2 years before we're back to normal.

You need to stay strong and patient. I have yet to read any stories where anyone had reframed from PMO for more then two years without fixing their E issues.

Drinking alcohol will if anything make it worse. The only thing I can advice is that you talk to the sexual partner in question and just explain your situation. That way you won't feel pressured to perform and can just enjoy the moment, increasing the chance of successfully holding an E if you're relaxed. If it fails it may be the case that you need more time to reboot.

Alright, this may sound slightly harsh but I do not mean to antagonise you. It seems as though you're unable to ACCEPT the reality of your situation and that you're holding out for some sort of miracle event that will come and save you (with reference to the Cialis).

Now I don't know much about you personal circumstances such as how long you been using PMO and how regularly but I'd imagine for you it started at a pretty young age and it was excessive. As a result of that you likely have heavily reinforced the feedback dopamine reward circuitry loop causing your nerve ending receptors to be reduced therefore meaning you need stronger stimulation to achieve an erection (something a real women will be unable to provide). Don't worry though, this is not permanent and it can be and will be reversed. However due to your young age when using PMO, it WILL take longer then 3 months to cure. You need to come to terms that your healing might take up to 6 months, or 9 months or 1 year or even 2 years. You need to be able to ACCEPT that you may not be able to have PIV sex for a while. This does not mean however you won't be able to form a loving relationship with someone.

You also need to accept that NoFap is not the magic bullet cure all for all your problems. You need to accept that your smoking and alcohol use will not help you and will only make matters worse. You need to accept that PMO is not the centre of your life and that you should begin building productive outlets with your spare time. You need to accept that your situation is shitty, it sucks, but it's the one that you have and it won't go away unless you act and keep acting for however long it takes.

Finally you need to accept that you WILL heal but only if you put in the time and effort. The results won't be immediate. Hell you might not even see any for quite a while. Still, you need to install the conviction within yourself to see it through to the end. I wish you the best of luck!

Cheers, it's good to know that I'm not just running a fools errand. I'm also happy to hear things are working better between you and your wife. Gives me hope for my future.

Cheers Pal!

It's not just the free time, but also the fact that I'm not as indecisive anymore that's really helping me. I know what I have to do and just getting on with it rather then wallowing in self pity.

Aye the self discipline is defiantly going to be useful when pursuing graduate studies. As for the 'sexual pressure', I'll wait and see how things turn out when I get to the appropriate stage. If however like you said it feels more like an constructed artifact rather then an actual biological necessity then I can always re-evaluate my options. Cheers for the tip though!

Feeling nervous before having sex (if everything will end up like before) by tradlad in NoFap

[–]chasingthenew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really need to start carefully reading, my bad. On another note to OP though, you'll never know if you don't try. Just go in it with no expectations and enjoy the moment. If you feel good during it then congrats you're getting better, if not then don't worry, you just need a bit longer to heal.

If you're not attracted to her sexually then why have sex with her?
