Oh good, I'm not alone on that then. Often nowadays my REM sleep woods are kinda weak but I had a really strong one all night and morning a couple days ago...it's confusing. I also woke with a hard shaft this morning a couple times (not that impressive though) and I had a wet dream. I've been having wet dreams 3-5 times a month since I started nofap in March. Although this month I've had six. I am happy to say though my wetdreams dont hurt anymore and my semen is looking normal again (it was jelly clumps for a few months and smelled awful), now wet dreams feel decent again (nothing compared to a real orgasm though) but its mainly nocturnal erections that vary in quality so often that upsets me. My EQ is still generally poor without the aid of pornography though but at least I can pop the occasional semi now and then which i couldn't do at all before nofap. Still, wet dreams always feel like bit of a set back for me. Before last months relapses however, wet dreams actually stopped feeling like set backs, I felt like I was ble to have a wet dream and be ready for another round anyway and still got hard in my sleep 100%. Oh well, this is the price of relapse, guess I'll just have to win all my gains back over the next 90+ days.
Any long term rebooters still out there? 6 months and still having issues myself with erections and never get morning wood
We will always be porn addicts because we are men. We are biologically designed to want sex, Watch sex. We want it. It's all about being able to control that urge and being able to use it when WE want to use it instead of being controlled by it. For you guys at like 200+ days, kudos fellas. I've never been that far. Do you guys experience super powers all the time? When I reached 40 days last time I was talking to beautiful women left and right with ease. Never experienced brain fog. Or I haven't realized it yet. I recommend you watch this guy. He's on a 2+ year streak.
I don't believe in the superpowers at all. I'm 6 months in now and don't have morning wood. My amazing girlfriend and I can have sex but it takes a lot out of me and I flatline after an orgasm. My dead is once again dead
Anyone of the long term rebooters ever had sex by taking the V pill whilst abstaining from PMO? I had successful sex once but that was it, since then I have relapsed like hell my girlfriend visits in 60 days I will have to use 100mg's of the V pill in order to get it up. She has been so patient with me but she was scared the other day coz she said to me that what if this lasts forever. :-(
After 100 days I had an amazing erection that lasted 2 hours on 5mg daily cailis, but I ended up worried that I'd had a priapism. I've not had an erection as good since and that was about 70 days ago now. Still managed to have sex since but nothing as good as that
The real sad and unfortunate truth. The years of abuse can never be fully corrected. Things get so much better and your life will improve immensely but it's not like you become some kindastallion after.
20 days in again and I haven't had a single morning erection. Had sex on day 12 and day 16 but the erection on day 16 wasn't great. Penis feels as if it isn't even there and I'm not horny at all...
so one year on and you’re still having erection issues? I understand it’s normal not to be super hard every time. what has happened this past year. Have you done anything that you feel works? I’m 5 months in and my erections are still unreliable. I want a gf to get better, but so far no good candidates. Still haven’t properly tried getting an erection without ED pills. But always need a lot of stimulation to get me a boner and recently I’ve had to use a ring to hold the erection. After a bit of PIV, then I can take it off. But sucks putting that stuff on even with ED pills...
So the past year I started ou great. I'm a relationship and had recovered from PIED after 3 months on hard mode. It worked great the first few weeks then had its ups and downs but never failed and I started getting morning wood etc. Then after my break up I relapsed but again recovered, even quicker this time. Had sex with three diffrrent people I've the course of three months and erections were reliable, even with a condom. Then, in September I relapsed again a few times, was able to have sex after 14 days of abstinence but then relapsed a few times again. Now I'm on day 20 but can't seem to get hard and I'm in complete flatline again... Unsure what to do at the moment, I'm very worried about my erections but they were amazing to porn the last relapse so I must be flatlining. But I am panicking and I'm on day 20 now.
Why do you keep relapsing? I see porn as the root of all my problems. I can never return to that poisonous shit ever again!
Guys that post is really frightening Seeing heroes passing long streaks & still having problems is really scary May anyone give me some hope here!!!!!
I believe the main problem with most Fapstronauts is that they think of PMO as their main problem, instead of asking themselves what drives them to PMO in the first place. Addict need to dig deep into himself to find the underlying issue that is causing the discomfort he/she tries to numb by PMOing. Relapsing is not gonna end until he/she discovers and addresses the roots of addiction. Even if he/she gets rid of PMO addiction there will soon fall for some other drug of choice to self-medicate his/hers inner pain.
I'm sure it's not what OP was asking... Bunch of physical and mental symptoms after long of pmo use are the equation and they seems to last forever.
It's when loneliness creeps in and you don't have anyone. You get unbelievable horny or freaked out things won't work so it just happens. It's hard when you don't have a partner.
I've had a year streak in the past though so surely I should be cured. Relapsing a few times shouldn't set me completely back to square one right?
