I'm a fit 27 year old and have been taking Viagra/Cialis/Citrulline ever since I first got into this hobby 6 years ago. It's not a matter of necessity but rather enhancement. Why wouldn't I use every resource available to make my sessions as pleasurable as possible?

Thank you Miss Tanya. That makes a lot of sense. I see a similar problem in students (which I assume is not a result of internet porn) and even myself, where it is difficult to engage in and focus on reading for an extended period of time. The internet has rewired our brains. And the dopamine shots are addictive.

There's more research being done on the subject but its coming along slowly. The pharmaceutical companies can't make money off guys quitting porn...tthey'd rather just treat the symptoms with Viagra, cialis, antidepressants, antianxiety pills, ...whatever

I'm not antiporn..hell I watch it to!! But over the past 10 years I've noticed changes in men..especially younger ones..plus ive had many clients confide in me about their issues. I cant deny that porn can potentially be quite harmful.

I haven't spent any time researching how internet in general affects the human brain..but am now interested in looking into it. The book mentions its not so much the type of content thats causing the issues, but the way it's delivered, the dopamine high is prolonged by endless novel content.

And if you think the internet affects the human brain, imagine how the brains of young people growing up with constant access to the internet, Facebook, Twitter, etc. through their cell phones are having their brain affected. I teach part-time courses and students are constantly checking their cell phone during my lectures. I would tell them if they can't last thru a 45 minute lecture without looking at their cell phone they have a problem, but I suspect most already know this and don't want to hear it from me.

The Western World is not the problem, it's places like India, China and Africa which have produced most of the population growth.

That's because they don't eat MacDonald's and then watch porn in their mother's basement.

I think Miss Tanya has it right about some of the problem. There is Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome (TSM), which is men who masturbate so violently that they can't get any sensation when fucking normally - and, of course, nobody will have sex with them a second time because they are too violent and take too long. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9509379 http://www.brian-brown.org/2008/04/traumatic-masturbatory-syndrome-and.html

Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome and Pornography = Unsatisfactory Heterosexual Sex Life
A friend of mine recently told me that his sex life had been absolutely horrible over the past year. After a huge spat with his wife last summer over a misunderstanding, their sexual relations had turned cold.

During this cold spell, my friend resorted to masturbation and pornography to relieve his sexual urges. Studies have shown that a large percentage of males masturbate several times a week, if not daily. So none of this sounded unusual to me at this point.

However, after about four months, he reconciled with his wife in the bedroom. But to his dismay he was experiencing a frustrating bout of inorgasmia. Inorgasmia is the inability of a male (in this case) to achieve orgasm during sexual intercourse.

He was also finding that it was taking him a very long time to orgasm at all in the bedroom even though his wife was open to different oral and manual sexual methods. He even remarked that he sometimes had difficulty keeping an erection during intercourse because his penis felt a numb sensation during the act. When he did orgasm, it took him over 30 minutes, which was a lot longer than it used to.

Needless to say, both he and his wife had become extremely affected by this. He was concerned that his manhood was not functioning properly and thus became anxious during any sexual situation, which further affected his performance in bed. His wife began to think that he was not attracted to her like he used to be, though he insisted that he was.

After about three months of this, my friend visited a sex therapist to discuss his problem. My friend recounted his huge argument with his wife, the period of months when his only sexual release was masturbation, his masturbation method & his use of pornography, and his subsequent sexual problems when he reunited with his wife in bed.

The therapist told my friend that it was the way he masturbated and used pornography during those 'lonely' months that led to his lack of sexual performance when he was with his wife again.

My friend masturbated in a prone position that mimicked missionary-style intercourse using pillows on the side of his bed. The therapist told him that masturbating in such a prone position (called Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome) caused the very sexual problems that he was now experiencing.

Basically masturbating in such a way puts extreme pressure on the penis which can not be reproduced during normal intercourse (and can damage the penis in some cases). My friend was essentially conditioning himself to be the only person able to give himself pleasure!

I just started with Viagra at 47. In the past, it wasn't so much the first round of sex with my SP or the second time, but more the third time, although sometimes the second time was a dud, too.

She had suggested it a while back, and at first I scoffed, but now that I've been doing it for about 4 months I don't know why I hesitated. Now every time is amazing, and getting to three is no sweat. And she loves how much bigger I can get and how much better it feels.

The main issue was always maintaining my erection after the first climax, which made things awkward with condoms going on, coming off, working on getting me hard, condoms going back on, endless switching of positions, etc. Now I get hard and stay hard.

The headaches can be a bit of a drag, but other than that I highly recommend the blue pill for those older dudes who want to max out their time with their SPs and maybe give them a little pleasure, too (and maybe less work getting you hard and more time fucking).

As for "Death Grip Syndrome" this article may be useful to debunk some myths: https://www.vice.com/en_ca/read/is-death-grip-syndrome-a-masturbation-myth-293

I guess the key is varying the type of stimulation, e.g. right hand, left hand, vigorous, not so vigorous, porn, no porn. Jerking off the same way every time is the real killer, not the "death grip," per se.

As one of the guys getting older and needing 'assistance', it gets difficult when you don't have a family doctor. When my family doctor retired, no-one took over his practice.
I find that when I use clinics, the girls ask very intrusive questions as to exactly why you wish to see a doctor. I've come to realize I can't go to a clinic to ask for a prescription for Viagra or Cialis because of the staff.
What other options are there?

I'm 67 and have never tried them.

They have to because it's their job. I can suggest saying that you have "Anhedonia"; they don't have to know what that means and you can explain it to the doctor in private. Then when you see the doctor tell you have performance issues.

^ False. An MD can legally and ethically refuse to provide a patient with a prescription. Just think how many drug users go to clinics complaining of pain and want oxycontin. Hell. I had one MD in a walk-in clinic refuse to prescribe me codeine cough syrup when I had bronchitis. Instead, he pushed a $100 puffer on me. As far as Viagra goes, more and more physicians are refusing to prescribe it for their patients because of the risks involved with the drug.

 

[LadyKiller]

You can buy cough syrup with codeine over the counter at the Shopper's Drug Mart pharmacy. They have two different sizes. As for a viagra prescription, it all depends on which doctor you see. Also, the effects of OxyContin and Viagra are very different.

that's horse shit ray

when they ask i tell them that i want to renew some of my prescriptions. when they ask what prescriptions i tell them VERY firmly that is between me and my doctor and it is none of their business. if they persist i repeat myself using the words 'damn business' in a somewhat louder voice

then they shut the fuck up

don't let receptionists push you around ray or the next thing you know they'll have you swamping out the shitter for them... just sayin'

I guess you'll have to get over it. Most staff have access to your file.
You don't have to tell them what it's for. Just tell them you need to renew your prescription.
If they do just wink and say "wouldn't you like to know" and smile
Most medical clinic always have the same DR working there. Find one that is suitable for you and carry on.

You can just tell the receptionist that's is a personal matter and all should be fine

I started reading Your Brain on Porn; Internet Pornography and the Emerging Science of Addiction by Gary Wilson last night & I've almost finished it. Wow..it's a really interesting read. I highly recommend it, especially to anyone out there who watches a lot of porn & is having performance issues. Or even to any skeptics out there..I suggest pick up this book even if it's just to humour yourself.

I've been doing a lot of research on the issue over the past year or so. I'm really impressed with Gary's book & his take on it.

Also google nofap. There is a big no porn no masturbation movement happening due to young males with ED problems.

Umm. Duh. That's not my point. Maybe it'll eventually come to you. Lol.
