23, weak erections since SSRI

Unread post by Ghosty »

Been off Zoloft 1.5 years, only took it for 3 days

Weak erection since. Prior to that I was very normal in relation to erections and libido

When I done nofap for a week, I noticed an improvement in symptoms.

I took cialis 10mg on a Friday and it seemed to last a whole week? My libido shot up and I felt normal? Is this normal?

I don’t get morning wood anymore and libido is down

It is not depression as I am not depressed anymore and have changed my lifestyle

Is there any tests I can take? I feel really down because of this

Well, I guess the first step is always to visit a doctor & get some tests done, such as testosterone, thyroid, etc. If the tests are all in normal ranges then it might be PSSD. However, in few cases, including mine, PDE5i inhibiters like Viagra, Cialis, etc, have reduced efficacy, which it [luckily] seems is not an issue in your case. Sometimes low dose PDE5i course on daily basis can be helpful but that's generally been in the case of those not suffering from PSSD.

It depends on where he is ,if he is not in a medication-developed place ,things about curing always run counter to his desire.

Don't no about "medication-developed placed" but he certainly seems to have an access to Cialis, which worked for him.
