Just wanted to share my story real quick for those who might come across this. I’m currently 24 and have watched porn for 10 years now.
I was young enough in high school that I could put porn aside for my girlfriend and had no issues. We broke up and I succumbed again and probably more rigorously. College came and this is where my issues started.
I’m a good-looking guy and girls came naturally. The first time I couldn’t get hard for a girl I blamed it on alcohol. The second time I blamed alcohol again. Now I’m feeling anxious and start overthinking things. I’m scared of not performing or being able to get hard sober – the mind is a powerful force and that became reality.
I stopped trying and relied solely on porn. After two years of college I enlisted in the air force. BMT was a godsend, 2 months of no girls/porn and my mind reset itself. I was a new man and the first girl I set my eyes on had me back to normal.
Fast forward a few years and my stupid self reverted to porn once again and suffered the same embarrassing consequences as college. I gave up hope.
Just weeks ago, I met a girl and we instantly were attracted to each other. We went for a walk and things started to heat up. She tried to get me going to no avail, I was terrified of disappointing.
Instead of giving an excuse, I told her straight up that I had ED from porn and I’d need time. She didn’t understand so I told her how dopamine works.
Surprisingly she didn’t run away. Me spilling that dark secret to her and her accepting me is what my brain needed. All my thoughts turned to her and I couldn’t wait for the days we saw each other.
On our second outing I had signs of life down there. By the 3rd date my brain had rewired itself from YEARS of daily porn. I guess what I’m saying is the key for me was admitting out loud to someone that there was a problem.
I haven’t beat off for 3 weeks now or watched porn and feel great. Being able to get an erection from just looking at or touching someone you care about is the best feeling. Hopefully this helps some of you that have similar situations.
