PIED and overstimulation of your brain

[Sheet420]

I just wanted to warn you guys about something.

Everyone here obviously like erotic games. They're awesome and great fun!

But you have to be careful about what this does to your brain. If you're like me and can easily go on 1 hour+ session with this stuff your brain is getting overstimulated with dopamine. Porn games are definitely worse than just regular porn, since you're stimulated for so much longer.

This will lower your receptors and make it harder for you to get sexually aroused. For many people this results in erectile dysfunction with real women.

I'm not sure how many people here are virgins (my guess it's a pretty large amount - no offense.), but you really need to watch out for this stuff. During my first sexual encounters I struggled heavily with this. I quit porn and masturbating for months and months and rewired my brain. It got better, but I really don't want others to go through what I did.

You might think that this won't happen to you, but that's exactly what I thought too. Some warning signs are:

- Lack of morning erections
- Lack of spontaneous erections
- Being unable to cum without pornography or thinking of pornography.

Stay safe guys. I hate to act like your mom, but this is a very real problem for many guys and most won't notice until they can't get it up when it matters the most.

Sorry for this negative post.

This is a nice post tbh

Porn and erotic games in general are so addictive, it's important to keep an eye on how frequently you're using it

I use it every time I see a new release of smth that I played before, or new versions.

Couple pointers..
1- Your brain does NOT get addicted to pornography.
2- Not everybody masturbates while playing these game or even gets off on them - I'm one of them.
3- Masturbation can be quite healthy. It releases stress, improves sexual stamina, sperm motility (fertility), prevents Erectile Dysfunction by exercising the pelvic floor, and prevents prostate cancer by 33%.

Sometimes, you're desiring something else that isn't being met. For some of us, it's not the sex itself but the thrill of the chase. For some others, their significant others will not scratch an itch they have. Like some women honestly find it humiliating and demeaning to do anything other than "vanilla sex" - i.e. highly religious women. The reasons for playing erotic games are as varied as the people playing it.

As to the issue of performance, I went through a brief period where I didn't perform as well as usual - it didn't get up a couple times, my stamina was cut in half, and I didn't have much interest in it. I did not have any porn materials of any kind at that time and didn't masturbate much. It turned out to be performance anxiety because I misheard a conversation between 2 ladies discussing my ability in bed. I was dating one and had been with the other girl - they are bffs. So after a friend revealed the truth, I sat down with the girls and had a good talk. I apologized profusely and the one I was dating told me to "just relax and take a chill pill." So I did and my performance came back.
So if you have trouble performing, take it from an older guy - just frickin relax!!! You can do it!!

I actually agree 100% with you and it's nice to see that people actually care enough to give advice about this sort of thing.

I personally play H-Games for the thrill, its exhilarating being able to carry out fetishes etc that are frowned upon in society, for example what MuttDoggy said about most women only willing to have "Vanilla Sex".

But I digress, it can be difficult for men to be confident and have a sexual relationship when they have erectile dysfunction etc, so take Sheet420's advice and you may be grateful you did :3.

Ah, so you're saying that maybe I should cut down on smoking jazz cigarettes and tripping balls on adderall while I jerk off to my chinese nudie games.
