Hello this is my first post. I'm having issues with EQ and sometime even getting it up. I'm 35 and was taking desipramine. This has caused an issue bigtime. I started taking L-Arginine to offsetting affects. It worked, for awhile.
I quit Hardcore porn around 1.5 weeks ago. I tried quitting masturbating too but hard to do everything at once. About 1.5 weeks ago I realized I couldn't get wood at all. That's what got me back here to PEGym. So I quit pron. Things got better slowly. 5 days ago I refilled my script planning on weaning off of the meds. Well I accidentally swallowed the bottle after I put my supplements on top of the meds (I used an old script bottle to shoot the horse pills) now I'm 5 days cold turke.
I've kept two tumblr pages saved on my phone and have been looking at them very sparingly. So my real question is, is this real progress or am I just fooling myself on the quiting porn front?
Just today I've been horny as hell and wood hasn't been much of a problem, still to scared to try sex with the wife, plan on it in 4-5 after my camping trip.
Is quitting Hardcore good enough? Sorry for rambling, me not smart me lift heavy.

I'd say you need to give up the pictures as well any other forms of porn. Come join us on the AP90 forum, the aim of the game is to reach 90 days without watching any porn (or quit permanently) and we support each other during the process.

Congrats on quitting porn!
You do not have to stop masturbation, the problem is with porn consumption and its negative effects on your mind and libido.
Your mind needs time to reboot from porn arousal mode to regular mode, during that time you may experience fluctuations in libido and erectile quality, do not worry, it is normal and temporary, you will recover in due time, and your porn induced ED will be over sooner than you think.
Don't RELY on porn for an erection!

So how would you recommend getting erect without porn? Manual stimulation?

Your imagination.
Recalling memories of previous encounters.
Pictures of your partner.
Erotica.
Anything that helps nourish your imagination instead of numbing it like porn does.A real man never hurts a woman.

you might struggle with getting an erection without porn in the first week to few weeks. but trust me you will notice a significant difference if you can quit all forms of porn and stimulation whether its videos or pictures.
your wife will thank you and youll regain your sexual confidence. you wont experience it overnight so every time you do relapse and watch porn its just added time to your recovery. I had the same issue and what helped me was getting back into art and listening to a podcast called dvdasa (for entertainment only, didnt help with recovery
) but the aural and mental focus it took to listen to the podcast and create my art stuff really helped take the focus away from watching tons of porn.
