I am 31, male and have erectile dysfunction from the last 12 years.

I was prescribed fluoxetine when I was around 18 years of age.

At first the dosage was minimal but after six months it was doubled. I continued with this medication for a few more months. So in total I took fluoxetine for about 10 months before quitting cold turkey because I was spooked by the sudden loss of erecton.

Though I would not advise anyone to quit SSRIs all of a sudden because I had to go through a year long rapid cycling mood disorder right after quitting this medication.

I was also prescribed propanolol and clonazepam concurrently with fluoxetine. I was given these medications because of anxiety and supposed anhedonia. I was admittedly depressed at that point because I was forced by my family to pursue a career I had no interest in.

After this brief stint with SSRIs I experienced diminished mental dexterity alongwith erectile dysfunction. I see no improvement with this condition to date.

People generally assume that something is wrong with you if you consciously ignore the advances of women. I have become sort of used to the social shaming that accompanies this condition. I have no problem with sexual attraction but it all goes to ruin as there is no erection. This itself leads to a hopeless and bleak life which progresses through various forms of temporary escape.

I wonder how anyone suffering from this condition actually deals with it.

I have joined this forum to share any insight and keep a tab on possible breakthrough in treating this condition. Thanks.

I got no issues with sex drive or sexual attraction. I guess it would be less frustrating if I also lost my sex drive alongwith the erection. But it is only the erection part that causes issues. I never tried cialis but viagra did nothing for me.

My ED is bad and I rarely get morning wood. It is very difficult to masturbate as I lose erection multiple times during masturbation. Also, the erection itself is rather weak.

But I am attracted to women and even get random erections when flirting with women. Though these erections appear out of the blue and seldom last.
