Cialis is the real cure for PIED

I've been rebooting from severe PIED for a year now with little progress, I also have a gf who likes sex
What's everyone's opinion on having sex everytime using Cialis....my theory is that your penis will get used to it and just get hard everytime you're about to have sex (kind of like the experiment with the dog and the siliva).
I'm only recommending this to the people who have been rebooting for a long time and not seeing much progress like me, I have read some success stories on people who have recovered with the help of Cialis

When I started having erection and ejaculation problems after my divorce I went to the doctor and sure enough, he wrote a prescription for Cialis. I used it for a while and it did help achieving an erection, but at the same time it made ejaculation even more difficult. And since my primary problem was delayed ejaculation, I stopped using it.
 
I did take Cialis a few times with a couple of different girls. The first two times were with the same girl and I didn't O, and the other time was with a different girl and I took it after I failed to get an erection earlier in the night (this time I O'd with it).

If your goal his to have sex right now, regardless of whether or not you can O, then sure take Cialis to help you, but I don't think it's going to help with overcoming PIED for a couple of reasons:

1. Sex lives and dies in the mind. When I used Cialis those first two times with that girl I was in a flatline, and while my penis did get hard enough for sex it proved useless. I had no sensations or excitement, and I didn't O. If I'm being honest, it was very, very boring, and the reason I felt that way is that my mind was still in a very embryonic recovery state. I had just learned about rebooting and was using Cialis to give this girl some sex at the moment, but ultimately it was nothing more than physical.

Good sex is more mental than physical. The dopamine surge you get from natural sexual stimulation that produces your erection is what allows you to not only physically have sex but to also enjoy the feelings and sensations that come with sex. Older men take Cialis because the body has failed them even if the mind is sharp. Our problem is the opposite: our bodies are fine, but our minds need rewiring. The bottom line is that Cialis can help with the physical aspect of sex, but it won't solve your PIED.

2. You run the risk of conditioning yourself to needing Cialis or other Viagra-type drugs in order to get hard. Most of us already conditioned ourselves to porn and not women, the last thing we want to do is rely more on a pill than our own minds.

So I would say no, it won't help in the long run.
 
It worked a treat for me. I only ever needed to take two half pills and it gave me enough confidence to be able to perform after that without any drugs.

My husband has/had PIED. He has been porn free for almost 11 months. He had PIED off and on for the last 15+ years. He has taken every type of drug on the market to help get hard. I have noticed two things. One,  he would take it for a while and after relying on it long term he would have to up the dosage to a point it was pretty unhealthy. Two, it in no way helped his PIED. He just became dependent on the drugs to get hard. The entire time he took them it never helped him achieve an erection without them.  They were a huge crutch and I also think it made the performance anxiety much worse. When he stopped taking them it was a really long time before he could get hard on his own.

Plus as a woman I don't think I need to go into the emotional toll it took on me feeling like my husband needed drugs just to have sex with me. Or when he hid it and didn't tell me he was taking them, well lying is even worse. I would not recommend any erection medication while rebooting. Focus on your reboot and getting back to actual sex with a partner on your own. If you become dependent on drugs it is just putting a band aid on a war wound. Now my husband can have sex, on his own. It is huge for him and for us. If he had continued taking the pill, I am not sure it would be possible right now without them. Just something to consider.

Agree with this...
''2. You run the risk of conditioning yourself to needing Cialis or other Viagra-type drugs in order to get hard.''
You could overcome PIED and find yourself with a new issue. I don't know because I don't know fully how all drugs work...but watch out. Not going to lie i wouldn't mind trying one just to see my fully erect penis (makes me feel good/more confident... and eager to beat it PIED so i can use it).

Cialis has been helpful to me. I have not had to increase my dose. In fact, over time, I have reduced it a lot. Be careful reading the advice of others. We are all very different and are dealing with very complicated different sets of circumstances, so how YOU deal with your situation will be completely different than everyone else's. Cialis may be great for you. Does it cure PIED? Of course not. It's not supposed to. And it's not supposed to help you get erections without taking it either. Be careful--a lot of opinions come with a big dose of personal history and ignorance. Go with your gut. Good luck buddy

I'd say it has its place in specific situations, but it's not solving the problem, it's just masking it and ultimately you do not want to be Ina situation where you have to pop a pill to have sex. Personally I don't find they are always effective anyway. Again, each to their own, but it's just another quick fix that isn't going to be sustainable in the long term.

I take viagrra before sex just so my erection can go from 60% hard to 80% hard. I need it to be able to put a condom on. It also gives me confidence. I will slowly stop using it over time.
