Hi guys,
new to this but a bit of background. I am 31 years old and have been watching porn since like 14 or so. Sex drive was always amazing and id say by about 18 thats when the internet porn started getting quicker, more accessible, I had my own laptop. I started literally pulling it to porn like 5-6 times a day. Anyway around 19 years of age or so my libido dropped a bit and became a little patchy, lost a bit of interest in it, couldn't always maintain an erection. Got tested for hormone problems, urology tested me for various other things and all normal. Then I got a gf and just couldn't do it most the time, I just felt not in the mood and couldn't get it up but then id go home and without porn manage to get it up but with no interest.
10 years on its got to a point where now, even watching porn isn't doing for me, and i am struggling with erections even on my own which is a first as even with low libido i've been able to get it up using my own mental fantasy. Since being single 5 years ago I have slept with nearly 100 women, mostly using the odd ciailis tablet but some where I have managed to perform and have been aroused without.
The past couple of months have been crap and my libido is shot, erections are struggling even on my own and I dont know what to do as physically i'm fit and healthy. i had hormone bloods taken and my testosterone is higher than most 18 year olds! I do have a bit of general anxiety so I worry a bit more than others about things in every day life and I do have mood swings and sometimes feel tired. I do lack enjoyment in life these days too.
I think even when i am not in the mood for sex I want to watch porn anyway for the sake of it which is probably the addiction and this can lead to weaker erections and dull orgasms.
Anyway, I have come across this and I seem to relate to a lot of the symptoms the guys have on here. I think the difference is though, not even porn is doing it for me anymore, however could my issue still be PIED? Has anyone experienced the same?
Sorry for the long post but any input would be appreciated
Thanks
