Healing deeper wounds

Hey everyone,

After a long journey of quitting P (and trying to get others to do it as well!) i have reached a certain point.
I don't spend countless hours searching for P, don't read erotic stories, play erotic games and i love every part of it. Only problem is i started heavily watching P since i was very young and i was always the type of guy that was more interested in storyline than the whole act (seriously), like i prefer HTM things, forbidden things etc. Good thing is i don't need that junk anymore  ;D.

Not so good thing is that, during sex, i get excited as hell during foreplay and kinda fall off when it gets to the main thing. I can kinda control it and get hard again but even 10 sec of pause can get me pretty soft. Then i start thinking about it.....it gets in my head and i can't seem to be able to get it up again.

The thing that is bothering me is:
Has porn changed my brain in my early years so i am attracted to these foreplay things and i should do something to reboot my brain, or have i always liked it more than the whole thing and that is just who i am?

Either way i need help to fix this, and i have even thought of watching raw P gifs: no storyline, beggining, foreplay - just the main thing. Or should i reboot my brain by M to 'the main thing' things?

Hey dude this is a great question. First of all I all I'm not an expert, and a recovering porn addiction myself. How far are you in nofab? This could be a flatline and since you started at a young age the flatline tends to last longer. I'm 19 years old and still in flatline on day 116. I don't think watching porn is the right thing to do. You should wait it out. I can have sex as well but if I don't get stimulated i lose erection. That's my advice. Good luck King

no, it would be a very bad idea if you want to turn to porn to hold the erection.

the whole point of the reboot is that you want to quit the digital sex life. this is the time you need to be strong and you need to have patience.
at the age of 23, the amount that this recovery will take will be nothing in comparison to what you will be getting at the end of the reboot.
it will be something you wanted to have and you will have. 

For the reboot, you need to give up digital sex totally there is no question of foreplay or sexy gif or booty shaking videos of girls. there should be none of these porn-masturbation-edging to orgasm- orgasm (PMEO)

when I was recovering I did not even use to watch the sex scenes in the movies I use to just skip it. It took a lot of my will power but I had to do it.
whenever you get the urge to try to distract yourself but don't give in to the monster that has disturbed so many lives.

ITS A TIME YOU WANT TO GIVE TO YOUR BODY TO RECOVER.

You gotta keep your chin up. This is the battle you want to win to win the war.
