Guys, i have stopped porn for one entire year in the past. After that, i just peak once in a while, rarelly actyally. Recently, I even worked for 4 months in a farm where i couldn't get any kind of stimulation be it on or offline. Very peaceful life. After that I have been avoiding excessive internet use for 4-5 months now.
Yet, pretty all symptons of a low dopamine depression are still here. I don't know what to do.
To be honest, the biggest problem is not even the quality of erections but rather energy and motivation for life. MY self-steem is extremely low and this is hurting me like nothing before. I never was the most hard working person out there, but i never been the laziest either, never stayed more than 8 hours in the bed before, yet nowadays going to/being in the bed is a good thing instead of facing the world.
I'm in my mid to late thirties. Can age affect recovery this much? I know that there are external factors that are affecting me, but then no motivation to fix them.
I'm avoiding going to doctors because i don't believe in them. They probably will give me some addicting pills that i want to avoid. Plus, i don't if they ever will understand someone is this situation, because most good (veteran) doctors came from a time where this kind of depression (low dopamine from too internet/stimulation) just didn't exist. Excluding drug addicts i mean. Oh, and i actually fear sounding like a total life loser to someone.
If someone is experiencing the same, i would be more than happy to ear your case. Any tips or ideas about this, would be very much appreciated.
