my dick doesn't work lately
    #23825268 - 11/12/16 08:53 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Much like the title says, my dick has not been working lately, which has led me to a good deal of embarrassment in sexual situations and kinda causes me to avoid situations where I could potentially get laid out of anxiety. I'm a young dude in my early 20s so I don't know what the fuck is up. Depression? Stress? Anxiety? Drug use? Low testosterone or some shit? Been like 6 months since I last got laid so there's definitely some element of anxiety, but either way it's pretty fucking concerning to me. Been going on about a month or so.

Yeah, I feel embarrassed as fuck making a thread about this on here, but I don't know where else I could open up about it :lol: does anyone know of anything I could do to help get it up? Natural remedies, etc? This shit is freaking me out

Any help would be appreciated

Chances are it is related to lifestyle.  It could be endemic endogenous, in which case there are likely medical treatments.  Get healthy and if that doesn't help see a doctor.

Is this only when you're trying to have sex with a partner or own you own too?  Is your sex drive reduced or just your ability to get/maintain an erection?

Nothing to be embarrassed about.

:whathesaid:

Unlicensed but well qualified I assure you.


But yes lifestyle does play a big part into it. There's a reason mostly older men have ED. They have high amounts of stress and circulatory problems built up over a long period of time. Even in those cases is it rarely something irreversible. There's a host of ways to treat circulation issues. But I'd eliminate the other potential causes first.

Yeah I jack off a lot. That's pretty much the only times I can get my dick hard lately. Been taking breaks from it though but it doesn't seem to be helping. Maybe I need to take like a solid month long break to reset my system or something.

I definitely need to work on my health. I don't lead the best lifestyle. But I'm not completely inactive or anything. It feels more psychological than anything but I really don't know. My sex drive has kinda been decreased lately too

Cut down on junk food and start eating more greens.

Here's a good list of some foods that you might want to consider getting more of http://www.eatthis.com/best-foods-for-your-penis

And check out the link I added before, there are tips on managing dysfunction brought on by excessive masturbation. I dunno how much is legit but I would endorse the using some light lubricant and taking a good break. The one I glanced at says to stop for a week and then go to ONCE a week while trying to let your erections occur naturally, not force them with stimulation. I'd also add to that to try not to watch porn videos (pics should be okay) as your mind will begin to associate that as the trigger for your erections, and not what natural stimulation you might otherwise have.

The brain is a funny thing.


I'll also add that eating better will make you feel better and will help with your performance anxiety. It won't just make your junk work better (and I mean all of your junk) but it will also help make you better in bed overall. :goodluck:

Yeah that definitely sounds like stress/anxiety.  For me abstaining from sex doesn't really reduce performance anxiety.  What helps me is meeting someone who I really like and can be comfortable around.  There's alot of pressure as a guy to be always able to fuck at the drop of a hat, which might be the case for some, but hasn't been my experience. 

Sometimes I meet someone who I am physically attracted to, and they seem willing, but they don't know how to rub me the right way or maybe I am just stressed or tired.  It's just easier to go home and jerk off.  It might just be my coping mechanism but I feel like people who expect sex to be simple cut and dry tend to be more petty and shallow.

Alcohol doesn't help me at all, it makes things much worse.  I don't know what kind of drugs you do but I can't think of many drugs other than weed that don't effect performance in the long term.  If you suffer from weed anxiety that probably won't help either.

I love seeing such helpful and informative posts.
Only time my dick doesn't work is when I'm stressed or just not into it.
Could it be so simple?

Also, expecting your penis to work on demand is a good way to make it not work.
Just let it flow naturally, no expectations.

Thanks for the advice dudes. Will try to heed to it as much as I can and try to chill the fuck out. I also just stocked up on a bunch of herbal dick medicine. Hopefully I find something that helps :lol:

Be careful with herbal dick medications, any that will mess with your hormones can be bad business.  These supplements are designed for late 30 year olds who are over the hill in producing available testosterone.

You can get a testing kit OTC to check your hormone levels but playing with easily accessible herbs can risk opposite mechanisms or dependence.

Btw this is a very common issue it's just that no one talks about it.

:takingnotes:

The ones I bought are DHEA (with yohimbine), l-arginine, and ginseng. Done a bit of research and haven't found much information regarding contraindications, but I'll look into it more deeply

Yohimbine, while nice and useful, can cause alot of side effects. I'd use it sparingly if at all.

According to webmd:

Quote:

Yohimbe, taken by mouth, is POSSIBLY UNSAFE. Yohimbe has been linked to reports of severe side effects including irregular or rapid heart beat, kidney failure, seizure, heart attack, and others.

The primary active ingredient in yohimbe is a drug called yohimbine. This is considered a prescription drug in North America. This drug can be safely used short-term when monitored by a health professional. However, it is not appropriate for unsupervised use due to potentially serious side effects that it can cause.

Children should not take yohimbe. It is POSSIBLY UNSAFE for children because children appear to be extra sensitive to the harmful effects of yohimbe.

When taken by mouth in typical doses, yohimbe and the ingredient yohimbine can cause stomach upset, excitation, tremor, sleep problems, anxiety or agitation, high blood pressure, a racing heartbeat, dizziness, stomach problems, drooling, sinus pain, irritability, headache, frequent urination, bloating, rash, nausea, and vomiting.

Taking high doses can also cause other severe problems, including difficulty breathing, paralysis, very low blood pressure, heart problems, and death. After taking a one-day dose of yohimbine, one person reported an allergic reaction involving fever; chills; listlessness; itchy, scaly skin; progressive kidney failure; and symptoms that looked like the auto-immune disease called lupus.





Though it's limited to prescription in Canada and banned or restricted in European countries. Listen to your body and be careful man.

The only times I had this issue (that were not cause I was on heaps of drugs) are the first time I've had sex with a girl that I really really really like. Which is only like 3/20 partners. If I'm not overwhelmingly concerned getting it just right with her cause I've fallen for her so hard and want a relationship with her then it's never been a problem.

Thankfully it's just been the first time when it has happened like that, and since I'll still put a lot of effort into pleasuring her anyway so she's up for a next time, my performance anxiety (nerves) will have dropped to a level where I can just get into it without overthinking. Sex is a very in the moment activity IMO - overthinking during sex is pretty much a sure fire way to fuck it up - and not just with a limp dick.

Performance anxiety is pretty fucking common man. I suspect probably more common as time goes by now that everyone has seen porn by age 12 or whatever. There's a good chance you're just overthinking things, and when your mind goes racing off somewhere, your dick will often soften. It's a self perpetuating cycle too, as if it happens a few times then you're probably gonna worry more and increase the chance of it happening.

A tip I once came across that was directed at men having this issue at the end of steroid cycles (which often cause really low drive as the body restabilises) is to grab some viagra/cialis for your next couple of rounds, until you start feeling your confidence build up again, and then drop them.

That may well work here if you feel lost in thoughts when you've been in these situations.

I'm fucking glad you did man. ED is a problem for nearly all men at some point in their lives, and opening up about real life shit, no matter what it is, and sharing experiences and gaining knowledge, is exactly what this place is here for.

funny you say that, the first I noticed this happening was when I was hooking up with this girl that I really like and have a lot in common with. I appreciate the advice, I'm not sure how I would get my hands on those prescription drugs though; I wouldn't want to see a doctor about this issue unless it stayed persistent. I kinda fucking hate doctors anyway

Just hit up the DNM's. You mention in OP you use drugs, and you come here, so if you're not using them already then you're missing out on one of the best things to ever come from modern technology.

So, as your attorney I advise you to go to reddit, and learn how to take a little hit of all the things you ever wanted to try. You won't need much, just a tiny taste...

true, I've definitely used the DNM in the past, and plan to make another purchase soon in the future. just never thought to look into non-recreational drugs on there :lol:

thanks again for the advice. you're a hell of an attorney, JSB.

Look into doing some Kegels.  I was able to overcome the dysfunction I was experiencing years ago withdrawing off of oxycodone and benzos simultaneously.  Will work in a matter of days.  Makes you last longer too.

Also cut down on the :whacker:

And learn to relax :chillin:

Best of luck

Yohimbe not only can lead to side effects, including hypertension, renal complications, it also can have dangerous interactions with other medicine/supplements.

L arginine and ginseng are both benign and multi-useful.  You can also look into Maca.

Hate to be the one to say it, but ED can be a warning sign of multiple disease/health issues.  It might be useful to see a physician.
