Hi. What’s your opinion on PIED? Is it really a thing?
I attributed my ED to my porn addiction. Now that I no longer watch porn my ED persists. How long does the brain need to recover, and reset the dopamine/ rewards center?
I am trying to reduce my use of porn, but I find myself slipping back into a habit of checking sites and looking at stuff when I have free time. I am masturbating much less, but still feel the desire to check sites and such is coming back. Is this something that I need to address or will it improve over time?
what’s the strongest most effective technique i can take to pull away from PIED?
Is there evidence based research which connects watching porn during your teenage to sexual dysfunction in adulthood?
Also, how likely is it that someone would develop body image issues while watching porn in their developing years? I speak as an uncircumcised man who majorly watched porn where the guys were circumcised, which led to a lot of anguish and frustration in my initial years of adulthood about the way my penis looks.
I enjoy watching porn but dont find it as stimulating as I once did. Is my ED making me less interested in it. I remember I would get excited before watching it, now I feel like I force myself to watch it to try and stimulate myself.
Has app worked for anyone, as in it fixed your pied?
What is your advice for dealing with porn addiction towards harmful categories that encourage porn addiction? (Gooner, etc)

I haven’t had a solid natural erection since I took sertraline 5 years ago. Only time I get an erection is if I take experimental research drugs such as kisspeptin-10 or pt141 which can’t be prescribed in my country and I have to buy them off the internet. Is there any relief for me?
I have struggled with this, too! Ive only done the first day but i think that, for me anyway, gooning is a manifestation of that desire to be safe.
Think about it, so much of the kink is about switching off, losing your mind, and just embracing the spiral. I think its often a coping mechanism for people who worry about performance (at least it is for me!).
I mean, how many times have you seen a caption that implies you will never disappoint porn? To me, that makes me think its less about actually enjoying porn and more about the fact that you feel safe and comfortable watching it.
I think Mojo could be very promising
I find myself able to easily get an erection from porn but my ED still stems out when thinking about natural stimuli. Is this stress related?
I am a widower and single parent and not really in a position to have a relationship. I am worried that using porn as a substitute may mean that I perpetuate ED issues if I eventually get into a new relationship. What are your thoughts?
What’s the trajectory and the must take actions during your porn ed recovery to conquer it.
What psychological effects does trans gender porn have ? It’s an amazing the body transitions depicted in highly watched sites … upper female lower male ?
I think that’s probably very true! I do feel a certain safety when interacting with it all, glad to put it into perspective 
How much of porn related ED a confidence issue (porn setting unrealistic expectations of yourself, your partner and the sex itself) compared to a sexual interest? Given how different it is you get off to porn vs partnered sex, feels like using porn too much makes you only respond to porn/porn based fantasy
I started the mojo programs today. And my issues are the I can’t keep it hard because the self criticism. But after the course I went over to my girlfriend and just started to kiss her neck and feel on her and instantly I got hard. That self criticism is such a harsh killer.
