I thought you might be helped (as I was) by an article I just read from the UsTOO monthly e-newsletter.

Thanks David,
ED certainly amplified my depression. Being implanted has certainly had a positive effect on me in this regard.
When I asked my wife recently if she was happy that I had chosen to be implanted, she said yes and that the best part of it for her was the improvement in my mental/emotional state and how much happier I am.

With a big, functional tool like you have, of course your happier.

Re: Depression and E.D.
In my life, it has been the reverse for me: depression (and the medications for it) greatly diminished my libido and subsequently led to E.D. A couple of years ago, my psych and I weaned me off of one of the medications (because I really did not need it anymore), and I found that my libido returned like a freight train coming down the tracks. I deal with my E.D. using a vacuum pump and cock rings (as I have reported elsewhere on this site). But my point is that psychiatric medications can affect your libido, etc.

Totally agree with you!
The answer is most likely somewhere within us..

Years ago I was placed on an antidepressant that made it impossible for me to climax. I would be hard, I would be turned on, but I couldn't cum. I was changed to another antidepressant and that did not cause me any orgasm problems.
