Hey guys, Richard here.
I just bought OED today and this is my journal.
About me:
I'm 26 years old, and have erectile dysfunction since 17 probably, but I just realized that when I was 25 when things were worse. Yes that's it I had ED all of those years and never realized.
Someday at my bathroom I realized that I couldn't have an erection without stimulation and fantasizing and my erection was always about 70% never more than that.
I also realized that it was years without morning woods. But the more significant thing that I saw is I've lost some size probably because the lack of blood flow.
I tried everything through modern science. Hormone tests, blood flow tests, ultrassound with doppler and many things.
I also went to a therapist in pelvic floor. Also nothing, all okay there.
I'm healthy and exercise a lot. Nothing wrong in my body, doctors says that it's psychogenic.
But all this time I was disconsidering a fact. Since my 12 years old I masturbated a lot to porn. Unfortunatelly I had started with hardcore porn, I've edged to porn since 12 years old until my 24 years old.
When I was 24 I was warned that porn was not good so I stopped since then (That's why I'm not using the OPA). However I continued to edge and fantasizing a lot until my 25 years old. And here is the problem, through my studies I've found that the brain doesn't knows what is imagination and what is real. I was literally running a porn movie in my mind while edging.
Also I've doing edging without ejaculation. According to Gary Wilson this is the worst thing that I did, because doing edging without ejaculation you will maintaing that dopamine spike burning your brain and it will never end.
I basically did this my entire life.
After all medical exams I started to think. "My erection and libido is ZERO, it must exist some pattern that I did all my life to reach such poor healthy". And the only thing, the only pattern that I did was Porn, Masturbation, Orgasm, Edging and Fantasizing.
So I BELIEVE that I have PIED. I also consider that I have some psychogenic ed, I already discussed this with Shannon.
Now I'm doing what they call reboot. I'm not watching porn (and nothing that can cause arousal), i'm not even touching my dick, and I'm not thinking about anything sexual.
I've found some guys with severe cases like mine. Normally they recover themsevels after six months (some times more) doing the reboot, like this guy who is exactly my case: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/...different/
So today I start the OED, this is my routine , I work at my home, I will let running the ultrassonic track all day long in my computer, I believe in accumulative way it will be 8 hours of listening. I intend to use it by 6 months.
I also will use by 30 minutes the Masked Subliminal (trickling stream) while doing some meditation, yeah I do a lot of meditation too.
I read the entire instruction and I believe this routine it's a good one, I would love to see some thoughts about it.
Thank you guys
