78 days in to my reboot, had sex, but is this a flatline?

Hi guys, am new here, apologize my english as it is my second language.





So here is a summary of my story and let me know what you think.

Im 22 now, I started masturbating at the age of 12 I started watching porn at the age of 15 I did stop sometimes cause I started having normal sex at that age as well, with no issues at all, during my past relationships I did watch porn and masturbated almost every day, I left porn for maybe 2 months during those relationships and then returned back to it, from age 21 to 22 I watched porn nonstop, every day, sometimes I fap 2 times a day, escalating on more hardcore stuff, In october last year I met this new girl, and I found her really attractive, we were making out but I noticed that I wasnt aroused, dont know why I felt that way in that moment, I dind't have an erection so I freaked out, 2nd time same story, and 3rd time I undress her and I had an erection like 70% but lost it when I was about to penetrate, So I looked for info, I found these forums with guys my age suffering the same stuff, I related to that cause I am a healthy man, so I have read all the information possible in regards what porn was doing to my brain and I learned almost everything about the reboot and rewiring, so here is my progress, I have been 78 days in to my reboot, at day number 34 I had successfull sex with this girl I was so happy because I thought I was fixed, however I still have some issues with morning wood, I dont have it all days and some days I have strong morning woods and some other days is very weak maybe a 60%, so far during my journey I have had sex with her 11 times of those, maybe 5 of them had been successfull and the other ones, welll let just say it take me a little bit more of work to get hard, I do feel anxious some times cause of the past failures but man, there are some days that we just remove our pants and i am perfectly ready, so now I am so sad ad this point, 2 days ago, we tried to have sex, but my erection was not reliable, I wasnt interested on having sex, I was not aroused, and I just didnt wanted to have sex, I did penetrated her with an erection of maybe 70 % and it improved during the act, I eyaculated, but man I dont know why I just don't want to have sex, I am not the horny guy I used to be, I don't know if this is a flatline, cause man I have no libido, I am no pursuing sex, I think I am in the path to recovery because I have had successfull sex during this journey, but dont know why the last time I tried to have sex I felt numb and was sor hard to get turned up, I am just not in to sex as I used to be, I feel so lack of energy, I just want to be in bed, LET ME TELL YOU THAT I have already spoke this with my girl since i started this journey, and she has been really comprehensive, I will really appreciate if you could let me know your advise, and tell me if this is a flatline or why is this happening.

My concern right now is precisely why I was able to have successfull sex during this reboot and why the last time I felt like I didnt want to have sex and it was hard to reach and mantain the erection.I have read a lot and it seems to be a flatline but, I am just looking for an answer, I havent relapsed I have mastrubated just 2 times during this reboot to maybe sparkle my libido, during this journey I have manage to have succrssfull sex, even if I am anxious I am able to mantain an erection, so lets say that The first 9 times I had sex with here I didnt lose The erection and was able to have succrssfull sex, but The las two times where really hard, my erection where not reliable and they did improve during sex but I will get down if I stop stimulation, I have also feel depress and anxious this days.

Guys will apreciate Your support and advise.

Thank you all.

Hi AJHC.

You said that you haven't relapsed in 78 days. Well done!

Recovery is non-linear. Some days we can feel great and everything works 100%, and on other days we can have problems. This is often reported. Everyone reboots differently because there are so many variables to be taken into consideration. Try not to worry about it because worrying can also affect your libido.

Excessive porn consumption can destroy your libido. I know this very well, because I have a partner and I really want to have sex with her, but I just don't feel aroused to have sex. Everything is completely dead! I have rebooted a couple of times and my libido and my erections came back 100%, so I'm confident you will recover if you stay away from porn.

Can I ask if you've been fantasising about porn during your reboot? Some people report that fantasising about porn is as bad as watching it. So, during reboot, no watching porn, no fantasising about porn, no porn substitutes (sex chat, reading sex comics or books, etc.).

I think you are in a kind of flatline. Some guys report that their penises are completely dead during flatline (I'm in flatline now and it feels like I'll never get an erection again, but i know I will. It's part of the process.). You don't seem to have this problem. Sometimes having sex during flatline can slow your recovery. Again, everyone is different, so you might need to experiment a little.

I hope this answers your question.

Hi mousemat1,

Thank you so much for your advise.
I feel hope as you said that you lose your libido but was able to have it back 100% by rebooting and rewiring
Well i havent fantisize about porn, as pmo is not an option for me any more, i do feel in a bad mood, i dont know if having sex send me back in to a flatline, but man last time i tried i was just not in to it, i manage to have an erection with difficulty and improve while having sex, but sex didnt felt that great as previous times doring the reboot, i actually lost the erection and was able to get it up again after a while of foreplay, something i do notice is that worry a lot about having my libido and sexual function back, this days i have just felt tired and depress.

How can i stop all of this thoughts and stop worrying that much.

By the way thanks again for your help.

hmmmmm interesting... it may be a type of flatline. flatlining usually means you dont get a peep out of your willy, nor have you any desire to do anything sexual. however in your case you were able to successfully have intercourse, and yet still feel as though you are flatlining. hmmmmm interesting... its common knowledge that the penis and the brain dont always communicate so well, so mentally, emotionally you may be in a flatline, however your cock has a mind of its own and was able to overcome the flatline.
either way, its good that you were able to have sex. thats the goal isnt it. sex, successful and erective sex, is a great INDICATOR for the progress of your reboot. it can also help speed it up i have found. keep it up

Hi Fappy,
