Best decision I have ever made, EVER. Haven’t felt this good in a long ass time, extremely productive, stable mood, loving life. Let it go.

- Sensitivity increase has been absolutely ridiculous, I couldn’t believe how numb my penis had become from the constant masturbation and porn use - its no wonder porn addicts don’t bother with sex, compared to when i was watching porn regularly its an entirely different sensory experience. I was experiencing maybe 20-30% of what I can feel down there now, genuinely insane what a difference ive seen here
- Erections have gone from 70-80% to 90-95% during sex, huge difference here, it feels so natural now and i dont have to worry about it not being hard anymore; it just works like its supposed to
- General focus is greatly improved

This is it for now, but the first 2 improvements are really all I was looking to improve upon on this journey. I’m so excited for the future and also dreading the upcoming flatline; i have quit for 9 months a few years ago and flatline always comes in at around 3 months for me and last for quite a while. This time I’m seeing out the full reboot.

So im off porn for nearly a month now, and sensitivity has increased by a crazy amount, like i can barely last a few minutes now. I genuinely forgot how good sex is actually meant to feel lmao, it was suuuper numb before compared to this. I think erections are slightly better but nothing crazy

What are u guys’ experience with sensitivity? And how long did it take u guys to get full raging boners again?

More and more I understand this quote, 7 days clean and I feel amazing. So much sharper, motivation is back, mood is good, more assertive, more present

Smoking makes you extremely comfortable with not doing anything uncomfortable, makes you absolutely content no matter how bad your life actually is. I wish i could be one of those people that could smoke once every few weeks and have it not affect my day-to-day life but it is what it is.

After 10 years i think its time to finally let go

Context - I’ve been watching porn pretty regularly since I was 12, I’m now 29. I haven’t really watched anything crazy to get off (not since I started watching), just regular stuff and some splitscreen stuff. Some years I’d be watching everyday, some years maybe once every few weeks.

My erections never seem to be able to reach 100% anymore, watching porn / with a partner its always like 80-90% max, and has a soft quality to it. I can still have sex pretty easily, but I’m wondering if this is characteristic of PIED or can it only be PIED if i am completely unable to maintain any sort of erection? Would appreciate any clarity on this, thank you!
