People are predictably joking about this stuff and ripping OP but porn addition is a huge problem that everyone just turns a blind eye to. We have 13 year olds watching BBC gangbangs or some shite while y'all older guys just had a centerfold. It's a problem.


It's the hidden addiction that no one wants to talk about because it's even more uncomfortable than the rest.

Now everyone has to be aware of drug and alcohol addiction because fentanyl has made it impossible to ignore. But porn is doing plenty of damage that no one wants to talk about, understandably so.

Porn is so damn destructive for the mind. Best thing you could ever do is give up porn.

Know what your are dealing with. Sildenafil is generic now man. Get goodRX you can get 30 100mg pills for like $27 now. Getting older sucks. but these pills seem to work for me.

There's a great YouTube video out there about how porn does this unbelievable amount of damage to the male brain ... especially to the young male brain. It's worth watching.

Better yet, go to YouTube and use the following search string; "destructive mind porn"

Finding it quite the opposite these days. I find myself disinterested in porn and can't keep it up with that.

You don't have ED in the literal sense. Whacking off too much doesn't do that. You've desensitized yourself by looking at too much porn. My guess is you moved to stuff outside the norm to the point that wasn't doing anything for you either.

It's like any other drug addiction. Once you quit, you'll eventually get better.

First, if OP is a troll, frick off.

Second, if you think it’s just age, get your testosterone levels checked.

If testosterone levels are normal, PIED (porn induced erectile dysfunction) is a thing. Go watch gabe deem on YouTube.
If you can get hard with porn it’s not a cardiovascular problem. If you can’t get hard without porn it rules out performance anxiety (there’s no one around just you and your hand). Which points to - it’s possibly a porn problem.

And for those saying just stop, that’s not how a brain addiction/compulsive behavior works. His brain is likely craving dopamine hits from the porn to medicate something else in his life. Especially if he’s been watching for 25 years. It’s not really like a substance disorder; more similar to gambling and video games. Everytime he’s searching for his favorite porn site, he’s releasing a chemical cocktail in his brain… Lot of information and resources on this stuff if you need help.

And as another poster mentioned, it isn’t your typical playboy magazine or vhs tape from the video store anymore. It’s HD tube sites, live cam streaming, 20 tabs open at a time, every angle of a gangbang. shite is not good for anyone’s brain really.
However, the brain can be rewired over time and PIED can reverse itself. Try to stay off porn, replace it with other healthier activities and reach out for help. More guys struggle with porn than they’ll admit.

Can you get hard from looking at pics of naked girls or just porn?

Would jacking off to naked pictures have been be better (trying to avoid ED) than porn? Is it better to jack off to your imagination? Not jack off at all?

I just turned 50. Having looked at porn for years I find it incredibly boring. My imagination does more for me when my girls not around. As others mentioned unless there's underlying medical reasons you should be fine if you quit watching. Also Cialis is a helluva drug ;) You'll be able to put your dick right through her. You're welcome

It’s either physical or mental. Assuming you don’t have out of control diabetes, you may need a shrink … even though this post is probably fake
