I have been using Aneros toys for almost 2.5 years now. I have had some sessions with some subtle, fleeting pleasure, but I wouldn’t say I have ever had strong p-waves. I have had a lot of sessions that have no pleasure and I end up a little bored and quite frustrated. Every time I thought I had a good session, I wasn’t really able to follow it up with another one. Lately, I have been spending time taking breaks from Aneros because I felt discouraged and didn’t know what to do. I had hoped getting the Helix Syn V would help kickstart me, but it hasn’t been the magic bullet either. I really thought my prostate was dead.
I have heard a lot of guys on here that are frustrated and are ready to give up…and I hear every one of you because I have been there many times. Who knows? I might be there again. Here is my advice: Don’t give up! You may need to take a break for a while and I would highly recommend that, but don’t give up…
Last Monday, I had a terrible session with my Helix Syn V. I wasn’t in the right mindset, I was getting impatient, and I even started stroking my penis during the session to try to get things going. I had a nice ejaculation, but no prostate pleasure. I did a lot of soul searching that night and the following morning.
On Tuesday, I decided to give it another go with the Progasm. And this time, for whatever reason, things started to happen. I remembered recently that I had been relaxing on the couch with my eyes closed and I was able to tap into some internal energy/tingling in my body. I can’t even explain how I did it, I just could. I decided to apply this technique with the Progasm and I started getting good p-waves in my body, in my cock, and some sharp ones in the back of my shoulder blades. I was able to play with new energies and sensations. I didn’t have orgasmic fireworks, but it was a really fun session!
The best part is that I have been able to continue this success! It isn’t happening in exactly the same way, but I had a good Progasm session last Thursday, decided to sleep with the MGX on Thursday night and had some very pleasurable feelings, and had another fun MGX session today. In addition, my erections and general life/feeling in my cock has improved at other times of the day.
The confusing thing is that I can’t tell you what I did to make things click into place. It kind of just happened…doing a lot of the same things I have tried in the past. So, the question is…did I finally figure something out internally or did I simply use the Aneros for enough hours that my prostate is starting to awaken? In other words, could I have done things better in the past and made this breakthrough a year ago or do some of our bodies just need enough time with the massager to finally awaken?
I guess it doesn’t truly matter. I am starting to take steps forward and I’m really excited about it. With this breakthrough, I am much more content to have a session without orgasms and know that I am building toward something. However, I always tried really hard to think about what I needed to improve and surely stressed myself out in the process. Maybe I just needed to keep riding the Aneros and not over analyze too much.
Once again, to those that are frustrated and want to throw your prostate toys in the trash…don’t do it! If you are frustrated and discouraged, definitely take a mental break and don’t come back to it until you are excited again. I feel grateful because I know that 2.5 years is still a short time compared to some here who are still waiting and frustrated. I certainly haven’t even come close to an orgasm yet, but I am finally having enough fun and feeling enough pleasure to enjoy the journey.

No one can say for sure, but I think the rewiring process takes time. And that time is different for everyone. I was lucky enough to have a lot of pleasure from my 5th session. Fortunately, because I don't know if I would have had the patience to wait months or even years like some people.

I'm sure that's the right attitude. Each session takes us one step closer to more success. Analysis can be done between sessions, but not during. I tended to analyze during my sessions at the beginning of my journey and as a result, I didn't enjoy the sensations produced by my massager enough. Now, I am better able to let go and enjoy what is happening during the session.

This is great!
Orgasms are not far away!
But beware of expectations...
The best attitude is to take each session as a training session.

No toy will work if you can’t get your head centred.

Gotta let the impatience and expectation go. I think you were suffering from siege mentality.

You can do it when you want,you were probably convinced you’d get nothing,so you actually got something.

If only you’d involve the wife,she could take you all the way. Let her take care of the arousal needed.

Don’t need to explain it,just take it. You’ve always been doing it right mechanically. It’s the head that holds you back.

You said it buddy!
I certainly haven’t even come close to an orgasm yet, but I am finally having enough fun and feeling enough pleasure to enjoy the journey.
As above,get the wife on board and find those orgasms together.
Much to my delight, things are continuing to progress for me on my journey…
I was pretty turned on and inspired by @helghast ’s story this morning…haha! I chose the MGX as my play partner for the day. Once inserted, I started by listening to some binaural beats and I laid on my back with my legs resting up on the couch. I decided to read an erotic story from the Marriage Heat website, which I will say has some good content!
As I was reading and starting to get aroused, I could feel my cock starting to get erect. The excitement continued, involuntaries ensued, and my cock started to bounce up and down from the contractions. After I finished the story, I closed my eyes and allowed myself to relax into the pleasure. I started to touch my body by caressing my butt and moving with a very light touch up the sides of my torso, which always starts some great tingling in my body. I eventually got to my nipples, which also gives great excitement.
After a while of touching my body, I rested my thumbs on my nipples and just lay there completely still. I could tell as I lay there motionless that something was building up in my body. I just enjoyed it as the tingling continued to build and I got excited that this could lead to something higher. I could feel the energy becoming more intense and my entire body tensed up like it never has before. At this point, I think my mind got in the way and I couldn’t quite let go like I needed to.
I wasn’t able to reach the higher level, but this was progress that I have not see before and it really excites me that new, good things are not very far away!
I hear a lot of people mentioning listening to music during their session's. Is there anything that works best?
Obviously personal preferences vary considerably as to audio stimulation, you get to determine what's 'best' for you. May I suggest you take a look at the music selection list in the threads Aneros Aural Accompaniment - WIKI listings, The Aneros Audio Experiment & The Erotic Audio Challenge for fellow Aneros users selected ideas.
Good Vibes to You!
Varies from person to person. I guess the beats help focus the mind away from things that block us.
I hear a lot of people mentioning listening to music during their session's. I've been doing mine without thinking of having anything play. Is there anything that works best? Or is it just depend on the person?
I have tried several different things, whether it is listening to binaurals, erotic stories, nature sounds, hypnotic recordings, or nothing at all, just a silent room. I wouldn’t say that any of those have worked “best”, but sometimes, it depends on the day and what I feel like. Sometimes the audio really helps enhance the session and sometimes it feels like a distraction. I would say you should experiment with a bunch of different things and see what you like.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I'll have to look around for something I like
Things are continuing to trend upward for me…
Yesterday morning, I was feeling a little bit aroused, but also a little tired, so I laid down in the couch for a while. As I was laying there, out of the blue, I developed this ability to perform a rolling PC contraction from back to front and I could feel it gently massaging my prostate. It felt really good, so I kept doing it to the point where I experienced some quick tremors. This was a nice moment, but I got up and continued about my day.
A couple hours later, I decided to have a session. I got naked and went back to the couch where I did some A-less contractions to get aroused. Then, I inserted my MGX, laid on the floor with my legs up on the couch, and went to work. I relaxed and started playing with some gentle PC contractions…I can tell that I am becoming much more skilled at manipulating the Aneros with my PC muscles. Everything felt really good and I started feeling some good sensations in my cock. After a while, I started playing with my nipples and I was feeling some of the best pleasure in my pelvic region that I have felt so far. I think this was more anal pleasure than prostate pleasure, but I was definitely feeling good things from the toy. My nipple-prostate connection is absolutely growing stronger!
This type of pleasure lasted about 20-25 minutes and then I could feel that things died off a bit. I assume this is because my muscles were tiring and I’m not able to keep it up yet. Overall, it was fantastic session and I continue to be excited by my progress that seems to be happening at a faster pace than before!
After taking 2 steps forward, I feel like I have taken 1 step back the past couple weeks. Had some dud sessions and found myself trying to chase the orgasm.
Well, this week, I decided on a new approach. I have done most of my sessions while lying on my back, usually with my legs resting up on the couch. I haven’t really fully explored prostate play while lying on my side. I have given it a token attempt here and there, but not really given it a chance.
I also haven’t had any success with the “do nothing” method. I just end up laying there and literally nothing happens. On Wednesday, I decided to put these two together. I inserted the MGX, laid on the couch on my right side and went with the mentality of “I’m just taking a 20-minute nap”. That way, I should tone down any expectations. I turned the lights off and didn’t listen to any audio for this session.
As I laid there, I didn’t do or force any PC contractions and really tried to tune in to even the smallest pleasure. I did this for 30 minutes and I could feel some subtle pleasure begin to grow. I just had a good overall feeling and I noticed a few subtle zings of pleasure reach up into my breast/nipple area, without me touching them.
Yesterday, I followed the same process and again, had a nice result. I had the same nice overall feeling and some more zinging pleasure to my nipples. I also noticed some involuntary muscle contractions in my hamstrings. When I was done, I removed the MGX and rubbed my nipples. This felt really nice and I started to pop a pretty good erection and emitted some nice, thick precum. Another positive sign!
I know these are just baby steps, but it is really exciting and I can’t wait for another session today! Patience really is the key here and I really enjoy the process of quieting the entire body and “listening” for the pleasure.
Once things move is the time for discipline. If you aren’t disciplined,you just end up trying to recreate exactly what happened before,this is the epitome of expectation. It’s also must be accepted that not every session is successful.
Just accept the step forward and believe another will come in time.
