Asphyxia

Any way to combat it? I often catch myself visualizing porn like animation in my mind, i dream of sex and im having wet dreams, i know porn is bad and i assume this is bad too, maybe im taking too many supplements that make me hypersexual?
Not sure if i should be too worried about it but i dont want to have orgasms, i want to let my penis rest

Maybe my mind takes time to reboot from years of watching porn? Maybe i need to incorporate some buddhist meditation methods

Btw i posted on this board because i assumed the alternative treatment is probably spiritual of some sort, or some deficiency or my messed up digestion which causes mood swings which
causes me to crave dopamine/serotonin or something,which i dont know how to treat.

Any advice or opinion would be appreciated

Try not to overdo it but, why not? Visualizing sex is a normal and healthy thing.

Try not to justify or judge your situation. Both are your mind's attempt at salvation based on something external.
Simply follow the path and trust that your brain will heal in the best way possible.

I find that after long enough off porn, my fantasies become much less pornographic and are more calm and simple.
It helps me with women immensely, since even just talking becomes something that's mentally stimulating.

It will change in time man.

IMO Performing excercises like squats, lifting heavy weights shifts mental focus from sex to body growth and improvement.

Asphyxia

yup, my problem is im too ill and lethargic most of the day to exercise, i noticed whenever im feeling more sick after eating and having digestive issues and subsequent mood swings, i start to crave everything, and thats when those images in my head are getting worse which is then even more depressing.

perhaps deep breathing is the answer for me, if only i could fix my stomach id have so much easier time trying to deal with peyronies, but it is what it is.

Asphyxia. I can't relate to your digestive issues, but I for sure NEVER thought I would EVER come across such a disorienting & destructive disease in my life... but I did.
My penis is very often hot, as well as my pelvic area. It feels like no matter what I do, this hits the same every time.
There's nothing more excruciating for the human mind than to constantly battle something without knowing how to win. And it's not like this disease kills you. No, not at all. But it will f*ck with you in unforeseeable ways for God knows how long.
That's what makes it worse than cancer, and any other disease for that matter. For men.
It will strip you away of what makes you a man, if you let it. So don't let it.
Don't give up.
Apologizes if this is considered highjacking your topic - but I just had to share some of my thoughts.
30 degree dorsal curve, immobility and heavy loss of girth.
My body seems to get very inflamed when I masturbate too often or eat unhealthy.
Using antioxidants, Pentox and hirudoid cream, as well as manual traction, heat and Cialis.

Asphyxia

Just woke up from a nightmarish dream of my hobby which i can no longer engage in because of peyronies, waking up like this, feeling like a mess makes me visulize sex again, on top of trying to indulge on the memories of the sensations of smoking and drinking.
As things are, i dont feel this is normal to be scared to look at women, to have my mind hijacked everytime i see a cleavage, to have visualizations of sex make you depressed and mess up your whole day, this dissease forces us to quit whatever we were addicted to or indulging on while making our life infinitely worse and harder to handle in a sober state, it took away my hobby, my appreciation for my own body, my appreciation for women's beauty, and i feel a real fear of ever thinking that i can cure this, because if i do then il be forever dissapointed.

I made another post for one  way to go about dealing with those mental issues with herbs, not an ideal way like trying to accept whatever happens in life as if we are some 70 y.o monks but those herbs might help with peyronies at the same time, here it is,

I feel like both this post and the linked one belong in either board, this board and the psychological component. and any psychological improvment is a physical improvment, and possibly a penile health improvment.
So i never know where to post stuff that are both alternative treatments and are somewhat psychological in their essence.

What you describe about mental destruction because of the disease, that's something you can learn to get past. Even if your cook is completely f*cked, you can still have a healthy mental.
That's very true. Meditation and such things help with that. Not drugs.
Gear up, man, because you have a very long fight ahead of you.

I guess the way i see it is that like neoV said, maybe visulizing sex can be normal and healthy, but theres a fine line with this dissease where the mind can torment you whenever you think of sex , atleast for me, and over the last days ive noticed that this depends on many things,  and mostly on my physical health, ive noticed that some days being horny just makes me glad because im getting blood flow in there, other days it reminds me of the despair im in and really just makes me feel worse

I guess being so horny and visulizing isnt the problem, it might be the solution, the problem seem to be the mental and physical state i am in when i visulize sex, in my case the mental is affected by the physical which i see no solution for as for now, but i guess for anyone who is dealing with mental problems solely(regarding peyronies or even regardless of peyronies) then the solution to this is evolved around mentality and mind state.

Vivid dreams are a good indicator of dopamine receptor recovery in my experience - and the daydreams are called 'flashbacks' and go away over time

I did abstain from porn and masturbation for 6 months, had the same symptoms and worse. The whole abstinence thing probably hurt my health more than it helped, honestly. It may work for some guys but for me personally it just made me feel odd with a whole range of bizarre symptoms. Don't overdo it, mate.

Hey Lostandsad, thank you for the suggestions. I updated my profile and created an introductory post with more details in the [Introduce Yourself] section.
