ED from JELQING - Please HELP

[OSUguy25]

I foolishly decided to engage in jelqing thinking that if I did it 5 days a week with two rest days, while in the shower with warm water and lotion I would avoid injury.  I am extremely regretful of this decision as it has caused me some serious problems.

After jelqing for one week, I noticed a definite girth increase - which had me excited it was working and thus I continued for another week.  Now I know better, and that "girth increase" was likely swelling from the jelqing and not actual 'progress'.

I began to notice that once this swelling subsided, my penis looked a little smaller and was stiffer in a flaccid condition.  It wasn't until a few days ago when I went to have sex with my girlfriend when I noticed there was a real problem.  I couldn't get it fully erect no matter how hard I tried.  Eventually after applying a silicone based lubricant and her stroking me I was able to get it just barely hard enough to enter her.  Once inside it got slightly harder, but still only about 70% of normal.  Then another problem quickly became apparent - I ejaculated within 20 seconds.

I immediately realized that this nightmare was because of the jelqing and promised myself I will never, EVER partake in this practice again.  Now, 4 days after we had sex I have seen no improvement in my condition.  I haven't gotten morning wood, and can not get fully erect when thinking about things that would have made be erect before, and my penis will immediately lose it's semi-erection as soon as stimulation is stopped.

I have no sexual desire at the moment (likely because I'm ashamed of myself down there now & stress), and do not even want to have sex anymore when previously I would want it daily and get erections daily just thinking about it.  

I have no idea where to go with this.  It's only been about 6 days since I have stopped jelqing.  How long will it take to fully recover, or is that even possible?  I am extremely fearful this could be permanent in which case my sex life and romantic life are over - which I know will pull me into severe depression.  Please help!

Thank you,

I have been applying warm towels a couple times a day and taking extra long warm showers and some signs of improvement began to show yesterday evening.  The stiff flaccid is slowly going away already and I was able to get a full erection.  However per your advice I will refrain from this and give it more rest and time to heal.

Thanks!

Your sex life will not be over. you can recover if you stop sexual activity completely at least for 3 months. During this period if you are aroused do abdominal breathing. First practice abdominal breathing( Google it ) for 10 minutes twice a day. Use 6 or 7 breath when you are aroused, your arousal will calm down. This will give you complete rest.
Masturbation does not do permanant harm. It is reversible. so do not worry. worry is more harmful than the act. so be free from        worries.
