I came to NoFap because of porn-induced erectile dysfunction: I couldn’t keep my dick hard while having sex and was convinced that porn played a role in the situation.
I would always take some viagra when having sex (not the full pill) but, for many reasons, that’s not ideal.
The look of disappointment on a girl face when you cannot perform is not a great experience. Nothing bad is said but her eyes are asking “Why are you shattering my self confidence? Am I not pretty enough for you?”… That’s what brought me to NoFap
I would wank every day, was watching lamer and lamer porn about trans, cuckold and that sort of stuff, would masturbate half hard, make it part of the daily routine and have no proper motivation..
Anyway, after working on this since the beginning of April, I’m glad to report it’s not all in vain! Spent the night with the girlfriend and we had sex like 4 times yesterday and this morning. I could get hard and last easily despite the fact I took no pill. Also I had some alcohol which should have made things more difficult but it didn’t. Anyway, it’s fair to say I’m rather pleased!
Another important thing, since my blood pressure is a little high I try to do something about it. High Blood pressure can prevent erection so I definitely encourage everyone to get it checked and do the following simple things:
- LESS SALT (and therefore, fewer ready-meals and less processed food), try to stick to less than 5g a day, not that easy
- healthy weight, check your BMI and shed a stone if you have to
- more exercise, it’s also good for testosterone and sex drive
- MORE VEGETABLES, not that easy if you used to be a fussy eater like me
(btw, I’m 31yo)
Last comment; the thing that got me edging once or twice is online dating like POF or OKC, just browsing hot profiles. I’m not going to close the account but I will stop that sort of useless browsing. But on the other hand, let’s not fool ourselves, we are always gonna see lots of pretty girls in the tube/subway, especially now that Summer is upon us…
[History:]
- I haven’t watched any porn since April 7th
- I haven’t wanked since April 27th
- I had sex more or less once a week over the last 2 months.
There might have been a few minutes of edging here and there but come on, you have to check things still work from time to time…
Don’t think I’m completely out of troubles yet, especially when it comes to use a condom so will carry on with the challenge.
Anyway, thanks for the help from NoFap and YBOP, don’t give up people!!
Good luck to all.
