LOSS of sex drive/EQ during early days of porn detox?

[Lord Harris]

Guys. I have been off porn now for almost two weeks. I haven't masturbated either. My EQ and sex drive have been unusually crappy. My beard is growing fast and gym lifts are good so I doubt it's low test.

I'm thinking it's more psychological due to the sudden absence of strong sex stimuli? Anyone else get this? It sucks TBH as EQ was the reason I quit in the first place.

I am on the (4)G's too. I will say my sleeping pattern is shot, I'm wondering if a messed up circadian rhythym is messing it up.

Many people suffer libido flat line during the reboot, I am one of them. Just stay the course, it should all come back eventually. Check out yourbrainonporn.com, they have a lot of good insight.

Thanks dude, just checked that site now, will need to read further into the reboot though makes perfect sense.

Same things happened to me. Also, My flaccid has gone back to pre PE size. In one year I gained 1" in length and a 1/2" in girth flaccid. In 2 weeks it's disappeared, lol. Sucks but kinda funny as well. Probably no change in erect size though but I can't check because I can't get a 100% erection without some visual stimulus.

Thanks Totenkopf for that link, I've been watching the 4 part series on "ED and porn" and it's really frightening to think how big a problem this is becoming and that it will be an even bigger problem as the next generations are growing up with unlimited porn at their fingertips. I'm glad I'm able to start weaning myself off porn now, in my mid-20s, before it becomes an even bigger problem.

Stay the course. Its normal and should return shortly.

Cheers guys!
