Success Stories (Official Thread)

Unread post by Ghost »

Check out the list:
http://www.pssdlab.wordpress.com/success-stories



Over the years there have been many threads that cover the same topics:

Do recoveries happen?
Who has recovered?
What is a list of recoveries?

I have seen this problem on many PSSD sites and have compiled a permanent list of PSSD recoveries, and cataloged them by date.

From now on, all topics from the above categories will be redirected here.

This topic will be pinned to the top of the Treatments and Experiments page.

I am actively looking for new stories, so please post comments below and I will update them as I go.

Ghost, thank you soo much for your efforts!!!
I find it very unfortunate that people with success stories don't come back after half a year or a year or so to give a follow up. This would be extremely helpful for us.
Now I wonder if there is a way (and if you think this would be useful/practicable/whatever at all) to ask people to give a valid email when registrating. This way the admin would have means in special cases to contact and politely ask these people to please give a follow up. Of course this should be done only in spacial rare cases.
- just a thought...

I actually have emails for everyone on the forum. There is no way for me to tell if these people still use them, but it's always possible for me to try.

I took cialis 20mg 2 days ago, For the last 48 hours I have been jerking off like a complete mad man. I can move around and lie down, stand up, sit. The erection does not go away like without a PDE5i. For some reason the "visual" queue for sex sends blood straight rushing to my genital area, and you actually "feel" aroused. Every 3-4 hours I am Jacking off, and it feels great. Sure, it's not as intense as before an SSRI but i genuinely feel if i took like 10mg cialis daily it would work the same way and i'd be able to function normally. I 100% urge you guys to try cialis 20mg.

Cialis 20mg does not seem to work for me on the first 3 or so hours, after that its boner city.

Viagra works between 50-100mg dose range for me, but ONLY on an empty stomach.

I am actually mad because i tried cialis like 10 years ago when i was 18, i was with a girl and could not get it up. I took the Cialis an hour before i saw her.
If i had waited 1-2 more hours before i saw her it would have drastically changed my life.

I've lost 10 years thinking im completely impotent... until i got a viagra sample, and it WORKED!

I then got cialis and experienced the same dysfunction until 3-4 hours AFTER taking it... then it works for 1-2 days after that...

If i take a daily dose of cialis it will give me a good quality of life, i hope it doesn't get tolerance.

One other thing i urge you guys to get checked out is take a sleep study and check if you have sleep apnea. Sleep apnea / Sleep arousals deplete NO in the body which will stop your erections.

Sure SSRI's reduced your emotions and make you mroe flat, and reduce the intensity of libido, but for me i think 80% of this problem was Nitric oxide and ability for blood to be pumped to genitals when aroused, without that it feels like you have no reaction to arousal

I highly reccomend you guys try a 20mg Cialis and wait 3-4 hours and tell me how it goes for you.

Wow, this is great. Sometimes, all I want to see is one fucking success story and here's a bunch of them! If we had stories from everyone who ever recovered, PSSD would seem way less intimidating. I think there really are a shit ton of people that get better.

Im happy for you that you made such a good experience with cialis! My highest dose was 10mg but maybe i should try it on 20 mg.
Is "soft glans" one of your pssd symptoms? If yes, does it get better with the high cialis dose?

Im optimistic that things will get better by time but soft glans is the only symptom that i never seen or red some improvement about it.

I've always had soft glans since when i can remember, but it does not matter

with cialis the penis is very hard everywhere else, and it does not go away after 2 seconds without touching and/or moving body around in different positions

You can also try 100mg Viagra on an empty stomach
