I had terrible PIED.
It took me about 9 months of NO masturbating to porn, or even watching it, to be able to get an erection, of any tangible strength, not a full one at all, maybe 70-75%. Albeit, while sitting down. Being able to maintain an erection while standing, took months and months longer than that, as that is more difficult. Even now I don't think I'm 100% healed and I'm at day 664 of no PMO. It took a long time, but it will ALWAYS repair the damage, if you are vigilant. I'm not saying it will take as long as this, or as "short", we are all different and a lot depends on how much you've consumed and how far removed from reality it was. I too thought it was just a harmless indulgence, I had no idea the damage it caused in my head, both about my thoughts and views of women and sex, and my erection.
It's disastrous what that stuff does to the mind. To clarify for readers in case they don't know, drugs like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra don't work for this kind of erectile dysfunction. As the problem isn't in the penis, but in the brain. In a layman's sense, you become unattracted to "real" women, and only become sexually attracted to digitized women. I had things in person where I should have had a raging erection, but felt nothing due to PIED. Then, a porn clip favourite, would have me able to cut diamonds. Took a long time to start reversing that.
Stick with it, don't relapse as that just increases the damage and healing time. I will say this, V3.1-A for me has DESTROYED any slight remnants of interest in porn. It's finally all gone, every last remnant. So it can happen for you too, which will make recovery simply a matter of time, friend .
Maybe buy a toy for your girlfriend and use with her if your oral skills don't work. I personally have a very small tongue, so I'd probably be terrible at it too. She needs to be satisfied, or the relationship may start having problems.
Stay the course, I believe in you!
