Idea:
What about music (pumped into your ears) to help change your mood?
I use my phone and earbuds and walking to get me through an ongoing, very difficult time. It changes how I feel.
Would love to know what sort of music you love?

Heavymetalfan: You've said that you've "taken a lot of testosterone," but was it real synthetic testosterone under the guidance of a real doctor, preferably an endocrinologist? Here in USA there are numerous "testosterone" tablets and capsules offered with who-knows-what ingredients.

I offer this thought because low testosterone causes depression, and no testosterone causes major depression.
Age 80 in 2025. 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.

Self-loathing, depression, and hating oneself are ALL self-learnt.

It was prescribed by an endocrinologist, yeah. I have taken underground testosterone and it has been legit, as confirmed by blood tests.

I went through a lot of anxiety because of my ED. Information is the best solution there is: the more you know about ED, the less stressful it will be. Read books, talk to doctors, visit reliable websites and forums.
Age 40. Psychogenic ED for over 20 years. Current regimen: Udenafil 200 mg, oral phentolamine mesylate 40 mg, Seredyn.
