Need help

I am 33 years old, I have been watching porn since my teenage and there has been a phase whether I was totally addicted, but after marriage, it reduced, but recently my wife is out of country for work and it has been 3 months I didn't have sex, I started watching porn daily and masturbating at least twice a day. I realized my addiction when I wasn't able to stay even a single day without porn and masturbation because of it. I went to a strip club and started chatting with this hot chick, I took her to lap dances a couple of times, we exchanged numbers. After a while, I asked whether she is interested to come over to the house and perform stripping, she agreed and came. She was dancing and things got hot and I was able to maintain an erection for a couple of minutes and after that, it went down. It was really embarrassing. I used to be good at this stuff. She started saying it is a mental block, by this time it was a flat line. After she left is when I decide to test whether it was due to porn that I got an ED. I was able to maintain an erection and successfully orgasm by watching porn.

Now, I am really frustrated and feeling bad about of myself on getting into this situation. Is the above scenario really porn-induced ED. Need help in understanding and your suggestions to rewire my brain and get out of this awful situation.

Welcome Peter, and thanks for sharing. Prepare yourself for the hardest thing you ever done in your life. I think your ED may be porn induced, I suggest you to see Gabe's videos about it and make the test. Go ahead buddy, you can do this. Greetings from Colombia.

Hi Peter,
Sounds like youve got yourself a case of PIED there, buddy. Abstain from the fapping to porn and it will mend itself. Your brain is wired to get off only to porn, you need to rewire it back to real life situations, nothing artificial. The strippers opinion, a `mental block` is likely a ploy to get more money out of you. A strippers opinion does not count in this case, they shouldne be trusted.
Read as much as you can on the topic and understand the nature of this addiction. Porn has fucked up your brain more than you ever thought possible. But you can fix it ifyou follow the guidelines outlined on this site.

I think it's just as worrying that you are trying to mess around with strippers while your wife is away - but you didn't mention any kind of moral dilemma there, you are just sad that you couldn't get it up so you can cheat on your wife. I think you should have a think about what that means for your marriage. You sound like you're feeling justified in cheating because she went away and left you with no alternative. But do you think she would see it this way? Do you think this might change something in your relationship with her? Are you prepared to have your marriage go to the dogs over this? This is another thing porn does - makes you think life is basically about having as much sex as you can - with whomever you can. So you might have had a change in personality as well as a case of PIED.
