Should I be seeing something?

Almost at 10 weeks, which is still early, but...

Positives: 

Anxiety is much better.  More relaxed and less irritable with people in general.
My wife and I are physically and emotionally closer than in a long time.
I have no desire to look at porn ever again.
I'm much more relaxed about the process than I was when I started.
I'm just calmer in general.

My only question, mainly for the guys who have successfully rebooted, is:  What was happening when you were rebooting?

Did you get ANY erections?  ANY morning wood?  Or was everything dead for a significant amount of time, then slowly began to get better?

I know I was in a flatline for a long time, but my emotions and a bit of libido tell me that I'm at least partially out of that.  But I haven't had an erection this whole time.  No morning wood either.  And no wet dreams.

I did have low T, but I'm getting pellets inserted in my hip, and supposedly my T numbers are in the acceptable range.

Thanks for any info here.  I appreciate everyone on this forum!

Hey man - i've seen a couple of your posts but i don't know your story very thoroughly. So I apologize if this is not relevant.

I believe you have said in the past that you sometimes get turned on by your partner - and you experience some libido but no erections. Have you tried using viagra or some other variation?

Well I'm taking a break from P, M, and O, so I don't really want to have sex.  When we fool around, it's mostly me doing stuff to her.

I'm just wondering if the guys who've rebooted had any occasional erections during the early stages of the reboot.

Thanks
 
hey man glad to see you're improving

I'm not successfully rebooted yet, but I'm a bit ahead of your reboot (i'm a bit over 4 months into it).

Some time into it I started testing myself (kind of regret that, but it is what it is). I was able to get an erection after a bit of time. This only worked some times though-- if I was flatlining it would never work, only when my libido happened to be in a 'heightened' state would it work. Then, I started to get MW only when I was sleeping FACE DOWN. Nowadays, I've started to get more "normal" MW, but what happens is the MW comes in WAVES. For like a week or so I'll be dead, then slowly get to a point where I get ~70% MW for a couple days, then slowly get worse until the cycle repeats. Pretty frustrating, but it is what it is.

I'm also 21 if that changes anything for you at all.

Best of luck to you.  Let's both keep going!
