  • I need some major guidance with my ed

    Okay, so some backstory. I have severe OCD and have a long history of mental health issues. I've been obsessing about my EQ for the last 6 years. It all started when I read about PIED and I got really scared that I had hurt my EQ by using a lot of porn. My head problems are hopefully my main issue, but I have some other worries.

    Anyway my EQ was pretty decent back then, I think my head made it worse than it was, but I was still worried about PIED.

    Fast forward to a couple of years ago, I got burnt out and really depressed. I started using SSRIs, Sertraline (Zoloft). These gave me some sexual side effects but I managed. I was using porn at this time so I didn't really notice anything.

    I stopped using SSRIs like 2 years ago now, and I have now gotten into my first relationship. I lost my virginity with a decent erection, but it's definitely not as good as I want it to be. I'm scared I might have PSSD.

    The situation right now is as follows.
    I never get morning wood
    No spontaneous erections
    No erections without manual stimulation, and the erections I get are weak and go down very easily
    Generally don't feel very horny, never fully hard with my gf

    My worries
    PIED, which would mean I'm in a pretty long and serious flatline right now
    PSSD, would be soul crushing since there is no cure
    Low T, will get my bloodwork checked ASAP
    Pelvic floor damage, I got used to masturbating with a flexed Kegel to come faster, and I sometimes feel like I probably have a pretty tight pelvic floor.

    My main problem is of course probably my head, which this post should be good evidence of. The reason I'm looking for more reasons other than my head is because I don't get morning wood at all. I'm under the impression that if it's head problems I would still get MW? It's pretty worrying.

    My plan is as follows
    No porn (as I've done for the last 8 months)
    Some masturbation without death grip and I'll try to relax my PF
    Start doing cardio
    Get my bloodwork done as soon as I can, to check for low T etc. (probably closer to summer :/)
    Of course get professional help with my OCD/depression.

    Are there any other things I should do? I'm fully committed to solving this.
    Thanks

    Sounds like you’ve got this figured out yourself. Yes. Do those things. But in addition, relax, enjoy your GF. Having a relationship isn’t just about your performance in the bedroom. Have fun doing things together. You just mite find that when you both are comfortable together, other issues mite go away.

    And welcome.
    A prayer, is kinda the same as a "Like". If there are enough likes, God will take notice. So "Like" away please. My daughter needs your prayers. Thank You.

      Thanks, and yes I will try to relax. That's good advice.

      I'm mostly worried about it possibly being PSSD because I've understood that there is no cure for PSSD. The lack of morning wood and spontaneous erections are concerning as well.

      I've heard of venous leak, and since the erections I get die within seconds that might be the culprit as well. That also doesn't seem to have a cure.

        Good sleep and healthy food is also really important, think about it. I would also like to recommend that you check out the service from Canada Drugs for some good and trusted meds and supplements which might help you. I often use that service too, and I am sure that you will find it interesting to you, good luck with it, hope I was helpful here
