Hello everyone,
I am writing this to share a personal experience and to understand if this is a common journey for those who, like me, have been using scripts and devices for over a year.
Recently, I’ve noticed a significant shift in the quality of my sessions. While the climax still occurs regularly, the physical sensation has become “confused” or “blunted.” I feel the contractions less intensely, and the associated pleasure feels muffled as if the physical definition of the peak is no longer as sharp as it used to be.
An important factor: since I started using the device, I have almost completely stopped manual stimulation. I am wondering if this total transition to mechanical stimulation has impacted my nervous system’s ability to perceive pleasure clearly.
I’ve included a poll below to gather your thoughts. Please note that this poll is for our community’s awareness only and has no other purpose than sharing our experiences.
The results are completely anonymous: no one (including myself) will be able to see who voted for which option. I appreciate anyone willing to contribute with modesty and respect.
P.S. > I am also wondering if the type of hardware plays a role in this. Specifically, I’m curious if there is any noticeable difference in sensitivity loss between using a single-axis device versus a multi-axis device, or if the issue stems from other biological/behavioral factors.
Yes, pleasure (orgasm) feels “blunted” or less defined.
Yes (orgasm), and I have stopped manual stimulation.
No (orgasm), my sensitivity has remained the same.
I alternate between manual and device (no issues).
I fixed this (orgasm) by taking a long break (sensory reset).
I suspect the device type (single vs multi-axis) affects this.
Taking breaks are the most important. I usually get dulled orgasms when doing it every day for an extended period of time, but if I take a 3+ day break it is very good again.
Yea, it’s an overstimulation thing. Have you considered chastity as an occasional alternative? A few days in a cage does wonders for your libido, and the feels when you’re out are 10/10…
To address your question about single vs multi-axis: I noticed that when I had my Handy, my dick was more irritated by non-varying repeated up and down strokes. After a few minutes it would start to hurt a bit. But I could go on indefinitely with scripts that had stroke variety.
When I upgraded to a multi-axis OSR2+ I noticed that because MFP creates randomized pitch and yaw movement if all you have is a 1 axis script, I could really enjoy repeated strokes over a long period because the pitching and yawing made every stroke feel varied just enough to not feel repetative. Also I can easily adjust more things on the fly, like have it just stroke the tip even if the script is set for full strokes. That kind of control can be nice if my dick is a bit dulled and it’s harder to get into that edging zone, I can tweak things on the fly to more easily get there and keep that edge going.
That said, a multi-axis toy hasn’t solved the issue of pleasure being a bit dulled if I’m having 1-2 sessions a day vs taking a week off. Taking breaks still does heighten the pleasure. I’ve found the same to be true for real sex or manual masturbation.
I alternate between device and manual. Whenever there’s a lull in my ‘arousal’ it’s usually because the content I’m viewing has become less interesting to me, for any number of reasons. My kinks are so varied that forcing myself to use 1 kind of video/script all the time is boring, even in the case of ‘finisher’ scripts; they’ll probably get me off, but it likely won’t be as satisfying.
Everything needs a reset once in a while. Muscles and nerves get overstimulated/over worked.
In relationships, the girl is normally in charge of your personal “reset” timeline, whereas Porn is available 24/7, and like food, alcohol, and drugs; can easily get abused.
Everyone needs a break every now and then. Just taking a day or two off every week from all forms of sex is healthy, both physically and mentally.
For jorkin’ it, I vary between my e-stim device, OSR, and manually. Each has its pros/cons and loss of sensitivity is a frequent topic of concern within the e-stim forums.
Like with anything that stimulates the body and mind, you need to take breaks from it, or the “programming” of your brain to interpret/limit/respond to stimuli rewires to accommodate.
If my partner is gone for a long weekend and I have the place to myself, the epic session I have will physically require a day or two to recover from. Switching around between various devices and equipment, edge/deny/multiple forced o/endurance at length means there are some basic physical limitations - still haven’t had dust come out, so I guess I’m ok?
A long ways back, I had some extended sessions with pro-Dommes and their machinery. Venus2000 and SeriousKit, endurance/punishment stuff. I was raised in the “if we catch you smoking, we’re gonna make you smoke the whole pack while we stand here and watch” culture of the US in the 80’s - so when it comes to trauma-informed kink professionals, telling them about a desire to be abused with your own orgasm for being a porn junkie is pretty straightforward stuff. Anyway, after these sessions you learn pretty quickly about time off and how long it takes for sensitivity to return (it’s a couple days to a week), which does take longer than your system will need to “recharge”. Had a 2-day back to back session once, and the 4 hours of electrical SeriousKit, plugs/probes/machine assfucking on day 2 was everything BUT satisfying, LOL.
About the strength or maybe satisfaction of an ejaculation orgasm… I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that will generally decline over time as you age, regardless of how much or little you bust a nut. It’s just part of aging - you can do kegels and get into butt/prostate play, it’ll help (a lot) with control, holding back to build pressure/volume, and improve satisfaction.
Like everything, moderation is key. I’ve been using a Handy and Handy 2 pro for 4 years, at some point, I’ve been using it everyday and at least 8 hours a week, for multiple months straight at times, and now I deal both with some pain and ED
To be fair, it’s the other problems in my life that pushed me down the “addiction” than the use of the Handy itself, but my point is you need to let your libido breath a bit. Personally manuel stimulation is still working when the toy doesn’t, and I think it’s because of two things : taking back control and the content you use (or not). I’ve come to realize I’m much more aware of my enjoyment and sensation and being able to adapt on the fly to what actually feels best. As for the second point, scripts with porn feel great, until the porn doesn’t… I’ve also understood part of the problem was simply a burnout of porn, make me lose my erection very fast without physical stimulation. Using my imagination or writing fantasies with an AI chatbot is way more effective for me as of recently, because instead of watching endless slop of people fucking I’m letting myself get in the mood much more naturally.
As said by others, forcing yourself to slow down and go for a few days or weeks without doing it is a great way to make it feel amazing again, trust.
Anyway, take care of yourselves and don’t abuse of good things too much
(Damn, I haven’t posted yet that I cringe at my own comment. Sorry for the unhinged rant guys…)
