I have made improvements. As always, I don't want to hype my stack in case what works for me doesn't work for anyone else.

This is what I'm currently on:

After reading about the 5-ht1A up-regulation (agonist maybe) effects of Turmeric (Curcumin) from one of Ghost's posts (hehe, ghost's posts) I began taking it every day. I take between 3 and 6 capsules every day, along with including black pepper in my diet. Black pepper has the ability to increase absorption of Turmeric by 6,000X.

Just search for "5ht1a turmeric" if you'd like to read about the agonism effects.

I also take malic acid to increase absorption.

I don't even remember where I first read about Berberine, but I did, and began taking it in the form of Oregon Grape. 3x times a day.

Here's a bit from the wikipedia article on Berberine:
Berberine seems to act as an herbal antidepressant and a neuroprotector against neurodegenerative disorders.[91][92][93][94] Berberine inhibits prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) in a dose-dependent manner. Berberine is also known to bind to sigma receptors like many synthetic antidepressant drugs. As berberine is a natural compound that has been safely administered to humans, preliminary results suggest the initiation of clinical trials in patients with depression, bipolar affective disorder, schizophrenia, or related diseases in which cognitive capabilities are affected, with either the extract or pure berberine. New experimental results suggest berberine may have a potential for inhibition and prevention of Alzheimer's disease (AD), mainly through both cholinesterase (ChEs) inhibitory and β-amyloids pathways,[95][96] and additionally through antioxidant capacities.[97]

Other studies have shown berberine to increase noradrenaline and serotonin levels in the brain (rats) while inhibiting dopaminergic activity.[98][99] The half-life of berberine in vivo seems to be three to four hours, thus suggesting administration three times a day if steady levels are to be achieved.[100]
In addition to these two, I'm taking fish oil.

I've managed to eliminate Huperzine A, Tribulus Terrestris, and Alpha GPC from my daily supplements. I've woken up with a morning erection every day for the last month almost, it seems to be improving every day. I also have stronger erection strength, and overall a sense of myself has returned. I believe the antidepressant effects of these plants is also having a benefit on my personality. I seem to be in better spirits overall. Orgasm strength (sans pornography) has returned to near normal levels.

Things I have on hand/other things I'm taking:

I have Huperzine that I take some days, although I haven't in the last 2 days. I still wake up with morning erections.

I have a supply of buspar, but haven't needed to take it recently. Last time I took it was about 3 weeks ago, and I had an erection for 2 hours. This was during sex. I consider it a "boost."

I've been taking naproxen for back pain.

I've been taking ginger.

It seems like anti-inflammatory things might possibly help?

....

Anyway, it seems like Fish Oil + Turmeric/Black Pepper + Malic acid + Oregon Grape is helping. I'd recommend Turmeric-Curcumin.com for turmeric. I use Nature's Way Oregon Grape. I have a second Turmeric (store brand, Lindburgh) that includes black pepper, as well as taking a lot of black pepper on my food at almost every meal.

I'll also post this in the experimentation board, and report back in another few weeks. It's somewhere to start. It also seemed to take a while for these things to begin working.

I've also STOPPED drinking, and using marijuana. I also have limited my pornography usage. These things may/may not have any effect.

I should add I still have somewhat "muted" sensitivity. For this I've been using lotions, as that seems to heighten sensations. I briefly used Arbonne Intelligence rejuvenating cream. It is somewhat pricey, but it seems to jump start blood circulation (kind of feels like icy hot). It is possible it has increased sensation.

Even just using regular lubricants is a good idea.
