Had amazing sex with my wife last night. I have tried to wean myself off Viagra as I know this is 100% mental for me at least. The first time I had success a few weeks back I took four pills. Then down to three , two and one and so on . Last night I broke one apart and took probably about 3/4 of one. I know it sounds crazy but it seems to be helping me. Completely normal sex last night the best it’s been in probably three months. If anybody else has success stories in completing getting off of pills please share !! For now I am celebrating the victory and trying to trust the process!! Thank God for reconnecting me with my wife!!

I have been looking for someone in a similar position . I first starting using viagra at 21 after not being able to get it up, been using it pretty consistently during one night stands but have recently got a girlfriend . Been weaning my self off it slowly , on the weekend I tried to cut a quarter piece in half (which is very difficult) Ended up being able to stay hard and finishing even the following day without pills. I feel like I just need a little bit in my system to ensure the first time is successful then a lot of the pressure is off me to perform. Definitely feel as if mojo has helped and I think it won’t be to long before I am back to my old self . Good luck on your journey

Yes chaps… same for me…… I KNOW I can do it without pills…. But just that little bit in my system gives me a confidence boost and maybe a bit of extra ooooommmfff.
TBH….I kinda like the feeling. I use Cialis rather than Viagra, but the principle is the same… chopping down the pills with a sharp knife…

That’s absolutely fantastic news! Congratulations OP!!
I had been thinking of using viagra just to be able to penetrate my girlfriend even just once, but I’m fairly determined to use these exercises to overcome it without the pills as mine is strongly psychological too.
So with the 4 pills, (presuming 200mg of viagra), does that make you hard no matter what kinds of inner critic thoughts and adrenaline you have in your system?

No the first time I took pills it was not enough to overcome the anxiety or inner critic . I honestly think the exercises and open communication had more to do with it . Taking the pills just gave me some type of mental escape if that makes sense. If you can do it without I would say that’s the way to go. My urologist said that a lot of times he will subscribe them just to give you that boost of confidence to get you out of your head. I believe it has worked for me but if you can do it without I would strongly recommend it!!

It’s so crazy how we’re all going through the same things. It definitely is good to know that we are not alone

I first downloaded it close to two months ago and then deleted it based on struggling with being convicted as far as my faith, morals, etc. I re-downloaded it 14 days ago and decided that God would want me to have a healthy sex life . I just kind of pick and choose what to participate in if that makes sense. I would say the biggest things that have helped me it would be the box breathing, kegel exercises, and really battling my inner critic and reminding him that he does not defined who I am. For me the critic is closely related to the spiritual battle that’s going on inside of me. Reminding myself that God is in control and he has created me a certain way and would want me to be one with my wife and Satan will do whatever you can to tear that apart. Sorry if that’s heavy but that’s the truth. Also the support of all these gentlemen has been so so huge within this group!! Any other questions I’d be glad to answer I appreciate your encouragement!

Also forgot to add I have been going to the gym everyday( mainly doing cardio) and trying very hard to eat healthy especially protein.

Also I would add try to do the box breathing before hand. Like if you know that sex is on The table be proactive and do box breathing ahead of time. It seems to be a huge help for me at least. As soon as I feel the anxiety creeping in I remind myself to (box) breath. I also remind myself of how many times I have had successful sexual experiences with my wife. Like the few failures do not define me Or my sex life with my wife. And believe me the failures weren’t just minor they were pretty major so the fact that I’m able to have healthy sex again with my wife again is an absolute victory!!

I personally am using 20mg Cialis as you can be more spontaneous with sex with a partner. The app does help calm me down for sure. I am with a new partner and she knows everything about the cialis and me having performance anxiety from a past relationship. Perhaps weirdly, she actually loves the cialis because we can have spontaneous sex, but also a few times etc during the window of cialis working. This actually helped with my confidence and we have said I will try sex without a pill soon (which I never even considered months ago).

Hey Cobra, thanks for sharing! I feel like I’m in the same boat. The anxiety was getting worse and worse, pills weren’t as effective. So happy I found this App!!! Always felt like I was alone in this.
Yes, agreed, box breathing, pelvic floor and inner critic all helped me as well.
Had a great anniversary weekend away and some great successful sex!!! 
Then also actually talked with my wife about what we all been going on. She was really supportive.
Looking to start to try to get off the pills, since I think it’s mostly mental with me too.
Thanks for sharing and giving hope that I can get away from the pills…
