Porn addiction and erectile dysfunction

That's actually a really common problem too man. I hear a lot of guys saying that and I've experienced the same thing. There could be a few things going on...most likely that the way that you masturbate produces different stimulation than sex, I mean, obviously it's different but here's what I'm saying - some guys masturbate in their own way - could be really, really fast (way faster than you could physically have sex), really rough (much rougher than anything with a girl) or in odd rhythms (might go fast for a minute, then slow and so on). If I were having this issue and couldn't stop masturbating as you said, I would try to make masturbation as much like sex as possible, same rhythm, same roughness, etc. I would definitely not use porn, just your imagination. I would also limit masturbating to once a day. Masturbating severely decreases sensitivity, making it difficult to reach orgasm with another person. This decreased sensitivity isn't an issue when you are just masturbating, you can go faster, harder, more intense porn, whatever to overcome the insensitivity - you can't do these things with a girl really. Also, I would talk to your girl and tell her that you might want to change some things up. I know for me, it's easier to finish in certain positions and different rhythms. The girl I'm sleeping with knows my buttons and shes awesome at doing things right. This takes practice though and to be honest, a lot of women are not very skilled at reading their partner because most men are extremely easy in this department, meaning that the girl just lays there most the time and lets the guy do whatever he wants, not requiring her to learn about the other person's needs

You really couldn't have given me a better answer, awesome. Thank you

100% spot on with your first point, I never thought of it but you are right, there is no way I can replicate the way I masturbate during sex. To tell the truth, the only time i actually felt some enjoyment was when she started giving me a handjob in a similar way to how i do it.

Also, since i can't just stop, I am just going to try to just taper down the frequency weekly or biweekly or whatever. Hopefully it'll be easier that way.

And I completely agree with most girls really not knowing what to do, it definitely would be a lot better if i just taught her some of the things i like.

great advice, thanks
 
^^maybe you could show her how to jerk you off like you do at home....or let her watch you to see what it is that you do. Just saying.

I have had times where I couldn't get off during sex either....but I will blame that on the MDMA ;)
 
i have ed problems in the morning especially... i can easily bust a load to porn... but in the mornings if i have sex with my wife it takes me forever to bust... she dries up and it starts to hurt of course.. cuz she was done 30 min ago.. lol..

my erections are also way weaker in the mornings...

i do have a higher bp.. 139/80.. which im working on to bring down with potassium and magnesium right now..

it really hinders my sex life... not to mention that my test levels are in the gutter (starting trt tomorrow)

whats your take dialtone??

You know man, I've had the exact same issue my entire life. I never really understood the morning issue but I had so many experiences where I was going to town with a girl for over an hour in the morning that I just quit having morning sex. Even if I want it and she wants it, I know it's a serious commitment. Here's a few ideas just for you to think about, although I'm not saying any of them are the real cause. When you sleep, particularly in REM sleep, chemicals are released into the body that result in muscular paralysis. While this is happening, your brain activity sky rockets. This is when most hormones are released in our sleep as well. When waking up, most of the time these chemicals take some time to get out of your blood stream and I could see how this might affect erections. Another thing, I know for me in the morning, I am typically super thirsty and hungry, have to piss, have bad breath, etc. With all of those things, it's hard for me to focus on sex and enjoy it.

As for the being able to get off quickly to porn and not so quickly with sex - you're probably having the same issue as profboy...you're masturbating in a fashion that can't be replicated during actual sex. The best option is to cut out porn and masturbating all together. This shouldn't be too hard for you because your wife is there and she's always seemed pretty cool, you won't be deprived for long at all. Next, if you do masturbate, try to make is as much as sex as possible. If you cut out masturbation though, you should become much more sensitive during sex, making finishing come much easier.

Also, talk to the wife. Maybe once she finishes, have her take care of you in other ways so you don't have to worry about the whole drying up and hurting thing. I have the same issue with my girl...she finishes quickly and then things start to get dry and hurt, then I feel bad, can't focus on my mission and it takes even longer. Last thing - what do you think about when you masturbate and can finish quickly? You don't have to say it here but think about it. There are typically a handful of things that we think about while we masturbate which make us finish quickly and this becomes kind of habitual and almost triggers for orgasms. Try to think about the same things in bed. I know it's not the best idea to think about other things while you're with another person but it's temporary. What you're trying to do here is transfer the effects of whatever you are imagining while you masturbate to your wife. So ideally, you're having sex with the wife, think about your triggers, finish quickly although it was with your wife. Hopefully after doing this a few times this transfers over to your wife, meaning that she is the trigger to make you finish quickly. It works man, I promise.
 
solid post my man.. keep posting up these articles.. look at the response we got

Blows my mind...if I have any problem at all its finishing too quickly and feeling like a jackass
 
This is spot on. It was a nice read. Unfortunately I am in this boat, only once a day though. I went soft on a girl, most awkward thing. SO I am stopping! The main reason is that it helps me sleep, because of the release of dopeamine I am assuming. I recently picked up a domeamine supplement that I take before going to bed, and it has got alot better. I no longer feel the need. Thank you for the read though!
 
This post reminds me of this girl I started dating in high school. I could never last over 1 minute if she gave me a handjob. It must have been because she would jerk it the same way I would!

She was a couple years younger than me too. I remember thinking "Where is the heck did she learn to give a handjob like that!"
 
It's true, and when it happened, I either I 1; stopped porn for a while, then sex with gf went back to normal, or 2;introduce porn into the bedroom. I just tell my phone to put it on my tv ;)

I didn't see this link in here. Here is a TED talk about over-stimulation due to pornography causing erectile dysfunction and other psychological impairments.

Wow! Nice write up, interesting stuff. I know someone who is on his teenage year who have problem or difficulty getting hard. And yes, he overuse of internet porn. Now, it really makes sense.
