And no one has to endure the pain. We, as corporeal creatures do have to endure what nature gives us, but the PAIN comes not from our condition but how our minds respond to it. Even physical pain can be mitigated by the mind. Emotional pain is tricky business, but can be done. Faith in a higher power helps immeasurably.

How we deal with our emotional pain is a choice and we have many choices. Suicide removes all the other choices,

Unfortunately for some of us, it’s the best & kindest option. Some of these guys can’t understand, and I’m glad for them. No one should have to endure this pain. And we don’t have to if we don’t choose to.

Well I don't accept the implant to be honest it's not even the lack of sex that made depressed, but the lack of the erection feeling which I used to feel itself, so implant really it's not what I need or what I'm looking for, what I need is a real cure, too bad it doesn't exist right? Yeah I'll just try to cope as a lonely man it is what it is

I, too miss (missed) the spontaneously rising erection, but I will testify that an erection from an implant FEELS just as good. It lacks the "Surprize...I'm HERE!" spontaneity, but having the weighty rod out in front of me makes me feel MIGHTY.

So I do get 90% of the "erection feeling which I used to feel" to which I think you are referring.

So, I could have gone on to lead a happy life, even fulfilling sexually with cunnilingus ond/or toys for my partner and fellatio for me. But I made the choice I made. It may not be necessary for you, (nor was it really for me), but I am happier for having done this.

But then again, my self-image nor even my manhood is not dependent on my erections. I learned that lesson LONG ago.

Especially gratifying is that familar stretch that I used to get when my morning erections would be so hard I could not pee.

Still it's just a fake erection even with this "90%", still is not great and acceptable for most of the young people (18 years old or less) due to many factors. It's literally two silicon tubes in your corpora cavernosa, what is the point of having an erection if it's not even a real one? Now if you're only interested in having sex itself than yeah just go for it no problem, but if your interest is your erection itself, well that's another story because a real cure will probably never exist and if that's the case it will not be in near future at least. Everybody has his opinions and experiences, but everybody here forgets all the people who died because of this crap, just pretending every 18 years old boy accepts a fake erection like it was a real and proper solution for every person, yeah what about all the people I've talked (even in their 40s) who literally are not that much surprised from the results because it's not even close to what a real erection should feel due to obvious reason let's be honest. One would say it's better than nothing and I agree with that of course, but is it really a proper solution for every single teenager? Hell nah, that's another story (and I'm not even considering the fact the if you don't have money you're probably fucked because of the price of the surgery and the more you use it, the more the lifespan of the device will decrease of course, implying another surgery eventually). Sorry for the vent but I'm just objective and cynical these days, as a VERY young person, and mad as hell also.

Something neither of us has brought up in the discussion is the feelings of one's partner. Perhaps a few years of experience will elevate the importance of that factor in your estimation of the benefits of an implant.

That aspect of an implanted penis to which I refer is that an implant allows you to have penetrative sex with your partner, which your partner likely appreciates. So, even if I (or you) do not "feel" it as a "real" erection yourself, it is a very good experience for your partner if accompanied with genuine affection between you.

So, even if I did not feel sexy or "real", I would still enjoy sex with my partner because she has orgasms. Such is love - it goes way beyond sex.

LMAO most of you don't know what about the struggles because drugs work for you. Have your bladder and prostate removed and then ... be an advocate and come tell us how good it is to reach out! other than that sut the fuck up you have no clue what we, or people are dealing with. I do. Reach out if you need to talk. I'm not saying suicide is the answer. I've done that and am still dealing with this shit.

No shame .. not a cheerleader! just the truth

I’ve gotten too this point a couple of times.. I’m going to give dr kalby a try in Miami and if that fails then I have no choice but to get the implant.
Sometimes I just wonder why me though.. why…
