perception problems

This may be a little off topic, but I am starting to feel bad about my size. I don’t know if I have penis dysmorphic disorder or what. My perception of my penis size also changes frequently.

What I mean by that is some days it looks bigger or smaller than other days despite remaining the same size. I always look at my penis in my bathroom mirror. It is a very true reflection; it took me sometime to find the perfect mirror, but I found it. Anyways, sometimes my penis will look thin and sometimes it will look thick when I am looking in this same mirror. It’s like I am seeing things; it is pretty fucked up.

Also, when I look in the mirror I am not moving around, I stay in the same spot and the perception still changes from day to day. This also has being going on way before I heard of jelqing or anything related to enlarging the penis. I also have a camcorder that I used to hook up to the tv to check out my size, for some reason my penis seems extra long and extra thin when I use this camera. I haven’t used the camcorder for a few years to look at my penis because it depressed me. Do some cameras do that? Also, I have been measuring to often once again. Measuring is addicting for me; I have a hard time controlling my self. If I continue with this behavior I think it is hurting my chances of gaining. Can anybody give me some support on this issue? Can anybody relate to this kind of perception behavior?

I understand what you mean. Some days, I feel a lot smaller in my hand than other days.

I try to avoid measuring too much, just enough to track progress. So even though your perception has changed, can you reliably say that your size hadn’t changed either?

I do believe this to be much more common than you would think; I know I am the same way.

My advice is to continue your current PE, or experiment if you have exhausted your newbie gains from the newbie routine. At the same time I would not measure to frequently and I would also avoid the mirror a lot as well. I would say you should measure every 2 weeks, and check the mirror every 2 months. This is just my take on things; this method seems to give me more confidence.

This site is full of stories like that. Many people here have quite large penises but obsessively think everyone else is bigger, and that they look small etc.

Most of the time these ideas come from seeing dicks in porn, but having very little exposure to dicks in ‘real life’.

Our grandfathers didn’t give a toss about things like this, because they didn’t watch lots of porn, they were often in the forces, or played on sports teams where they would often shower together etc., (without wearing shorts in the shower; a ridiculous modern phenomenon).

People these days often have such cushy lives they have to find things to worry about. In the past there were more pressing, genuine worries, like war; it tends to take your mind off whether your dick matches up to your mates or not. And even in times of easy living, if you have only got your mates who you shower with to compare to, you are most likely going to find yourself about average. If you are large or small, that’s life. At least you are not being exposed to porn dicks all the time.

Rant almost over. But it seems every youngster I talk to has dick size issues, even if they are above average. Back in my day, unless you really had a tiny penis, you didn’t sweat about it, and neither did anyone else. It was a total non-issue.

Try to work out why you feel small, if you are statistically average or above. Because until you get that worked out, you could PE for years, grow a massive dick, and you will still think it’s small, long beyond the time it is of any use to a woman.

Man it would be nice not to worry about dick size. I would be so much happier. Oh I wish, oh I wish upon a star for an 8 * 6, only then will my life be bliss.

When you find that star; let me know.

You may find that when you get close to 8x6, the problem will still exist. Will you be able to convince yourself that you’re large?

If so, you might as well get started now.

Take a look at Still feeling insecured on my size.

If I hit 8 * 6 I will be happy. That is good enough for me. Yep.

I am like you Mr.T I have to control myself not to look at my unit on every chance I get. And like many others even if a have a penis on the average side I still think it’s to small
Specially on girth. So I keep looking at it to make sure is not that bad. And try to assure myself it’s gonna rock the next lady I play with. (This is one year ago)

Now I have realize that what got me so obsess is my urge of achieving my goal of 8x6 like you. But I took the time to think about it and it’s not the proper way to approach
PE. Cause there is way to many thing I don’t control. And mostly it’s all in my head. So as I am still working to achieve my goal I am mostly working on changing my perception
And trying to look at it as a gift thunder’s gave me. A chance to gain in my pants and in my head.

But the best thing I am doing is I’ve stop looking as much as I can at porn with male in it, No more tape and ruler for 3 months now and no more lurking at stats of others.
It helps me focus on my own penis. Think about it even with 8x6 there still bigger out there. Work with what you have and never mind the other guy’s out there.
At the end it’s for your own good no?

Thanks for the support brother
