Hey guys
Im new to this fourm. I would to get something off my chest. I'm 26 years old and started getting ed in the summer. I'm a t1 diabetic. I'm in college and the last year prior to the symptoms, I was busy and getting some highs. I shouls have been careful but I was not informed enough that t1 diabetes can cause ed. I have yet to see a urologist, need a referral first and hopefully I can see a urologist at UW medical in Seattle. I tried 5mg of cialis every 3/4 days, can get erections but doesnt last very long. It probably is VL but not 100% sure yet. I've come to accept this condition now.
I'm studying accounting in my last year and a half before graduation. Looking to land an internship and get a job paying job. Good health insurance is important. Ive lowered my my a1c and looking to go down to 5 or 6. I was at 8 before.
My question is, how do you guys try and stay positive? 2 weeks ago I felt pretty happy and just enjoying myself. Last week, I was down and out. I found myself feeling pathetic, disappointing, less of a man, robbed and worthless. I couldnt do what I liked, like playing video games and watching t.v. I would lock myself in my room sometimes. In trying to stay focused in school but at times finding it hard.
Would love some advice.

Re: Young with ed
I should also add growing up never really had morning wood but could get erections. Idk how this helps but its scary to think about the future. Dependency on pills or even the implant. The though of it scares me but then again I take diabetes medications to live. I thought that shit was werid but got use to it.

Re: Young with ed
Sounds like you might have low testosterone. Get it checked for free at your college health service; it's a simple blood test. It invariably causes depression (see my signature).
The other remedy for depression is physical activity. Go jogging or at least get 7000 walking steps per day.

Age 79 in 2024. On testosterone replacement due to hypothalamus malfunction. (Attention depressed guys: low testosterone is a cause.) Healthy health nut but ED due to getting old. Like to keep enough cardiovascular ability to thrust for 30 min.
