Psychological Benefits

[kickit40]

Hello everybody,

I am scheduled for my implant next week and very excited to get this behind me.

While I am sure this has been discussed, what are some of the psychological benefits to getting the implant? How has it changed your life mentally?

Much appreciated!

Congratulations. Fun times ahead. Very, very fun times ahead....

The psychological benefits are almost, for me, too many and too significant to do justice trying to describe.

Obviously the entire elimination of the anxiety surrounding "will i get hard, how hard will i get, will it be hard enough, how long will i be hard, what will i (we) need to do/plan/accomodate/adjust/compromise...in order to have the sex and experience we hope and want to have" etc etc etc x 1000. All that bullshit? POOF. Utterly fucking GONE.

I am and have been an extremely confident person in most things. ED being the outlier and exception. It fucked horribly with my mind for the last...well...20 years, in one way or another. So to wake up from surgery and think...and to KNOW...ok...the hardon is absolutely guaranteed...

Check.

What price do you even put on that?

I am more confident.

I am more directive.

I am more experimental.

I am happier. Not just in, or related, to sex. But generally. Just. HAPPIER.

The happy and the positive and the confidence the implant has brought me extend well, well beyond our sex life. The new found positivity permeates everything. It's pure gold.

I'm very happy for you. Embrace this thing. Push through the new, oddities ahead. They'll be transient and brief and inconsequential as compared to your new capabilities. I fully believe you will love your new dick. This last year has been nothing short of transformational for us.

Read stephen54's post.

Then...

All that.

And more.

But it took me some time to reverse the devastation that decades of ED wreaked on my confidence, self-image, willingness to experiment....all that. And more.

I may never get to where I would have been if I had not had ED. But then, I might actually be a better lover because of having passed through that dismal valley of experience. The lessons learned through those adversities made me a more sensitive man...and a more considerate lover, I think. For the most obvious example, I likely would have never learned the skills of cunnilingus otherwise. For a more subtle example, I have learned to pay more attention to my lovers' reactions and responses.

So, benefits of getting an implant? Recovery of some of my manhood-like personality traits.

Benefits of having dealt with ED? Learning some of the subtle manhood-like traits, like protecting the vulnerabilities of my lovers and being tender, even during vigorous sex.

I know that last part of my post was not asked by kickit40, but now that I have the implant I am able to apply all the lessons I learned. So, I guess maybe those are some of the psychological benefits of getting an implant - AFTER my hard-won lessons.

Great question but a hard question to answer fully maybe words can’t describe some of the benefits or what it does for your life, self esteem etc. But here are afew for me

1. Weirdly a massive part of my lack of confidence was having a grower, so basically I had a micro penis at times particularly with exercise so then when I played with teams or worked out in the gym I couldn’t shower around people. Also couldn’t use the urinals because of the tiny flaccid, now I’m proud and have no issues doing any of these things(I said I’d say this as others might not mention this part)

2. I wouldn’t even watch sex scenes in movies because I was so damn jealous of the men able to get an erection and satisfy the hot girls, I was frustrated about anything to do with women(sexuality wise) I avoided dates and then the absolute embarrassment of getting with some girls and the dick soft and small as mentioned above, so a double whammy of embarrassment for me. Now no such issues at all. No girl has complained about my penis soft or hard and let me tell ya no girl could ever complain about the hardness and that gives me great confidence.. and also before I met my current girlfriend I nearly got a threesome organised but fell through a t the last minute but my point been I had zero fears about this rendezvous, and not only no fears but I was looking forward to enjoying the sex.

So to sum up before implant here are the words I used and lived with
Small, usleless, tiny, frustrated, soft, fear, pointless, I’m a bitch, I’m not a man etc
After implant(when I copped on and became friends with it)
Confidence, sexy, fun, enjoyment, relaxed, happy, a man, strong etc

So this post is all over the place but hope it conveys the change in mindset that eventually comes with having a very good working dick

For me ED was a huge big black heavy cloud that was always there. I felt less than a man. A part of me was gone. I was not a whole person and in a general bad mood all the time. And all the stuff posted above. Often when I see a man in this condition I often think he is in the same place I was in.

But all that changed when I made my decision to have the surgery. The cloud was lifted before my surgery. I was going to be whole again. I was a bit nervous but way more excited to get this done.

Best of luck to you going forward with this.

My equipment failures before take-off were disappointing. My equipment failures mid flight were disastrous. I remember I would put my wife in an impossible position:If she seemed annoyed or disappointed I felt she was heartless. If she was kind and understanding I felt I don't need her pity. As my equipment failures became more frequent I felt she was just having “Mercy Sex” with me. I was in a deepening downward cycle. I was a basket case.

Now for the good news: My implant makes me 100 percent reliable: My equipment works anytime, every time, for as long as we want. I was totally unprepared for what I would gain with the implant.

Now I have stress free, worry free, anxiety free, spontaneous, playful, joyful, fun filled lovemaking and sex with the woman I have adored for 45 years.
