    Mission: to recover my libido and maybe form a new sexual identity

    So, I’m beyond 1 month into my reboot now. I think I’m in a flatline at the moment so I’ve just been going about my stuff. The urges to meet people have actually passed which is a bit annoying - though stress from my business is probably a factor here. I had intended the reboot to be just the 1...

    Mission: to recover my libido and maybe form a new sexual identity

    So just like that it’s 3 weeks down and it’s been great. Quite a journey of discovery. this last weekend I really for the first time in decades I really had the urge to find someone to go have sex with. I didn’t but feeling that urge was a great step. It was something I said in my original post...

    Mission: to recover my libido and maybe form a new sexual identity

    Hey @Beautiful1973 . Thank you for the podcast. There was a lot in the early part of that I identified with a great deal. This idea of getting self-worth from many men, and the destructiveness of that behaviour. Gladly I don’t have the trauma he speaks of in his experience, but the end path is...

    loosing this battle!

    @Crackers1 im really sorry to hear you’re having such a bad time of it man, and I just wanted to clarify stuff I wrote earlier in another thread. As I think I might be the person you’re referring to as a “non degree urologist” as I quoted some stats to you I think this might’ve come across...

    39, PIED, Gay. Finding it tough to be in gay social settings when porn is everywhere.

    Yeah, this is huge in the gay community. The standards we end up setting for ourselves when we watch porn is ridiculous and damaging. I had to change gyms because of it. I seemed to have ended up at London central for onlyfans people and despite having gone to the gym for over 20 years and it...

    weight loss helping with reboot and libido

    Buddy I think you are worrying yourself without cause. Current rates of prostate cancer are 208 men per 100,000 - so that’s 0.02% chance youd get prostate cancer to start with. Lets just for argument’s sake say that we accept studies saying that those who fail to ejaculate 7 times a week (or 21...

    weight loss helping with reboot and libido

    @Crackers1 60lbs is not a drop in the bucket - that’s a massive effort and a massive achievement to boot. Congratulations. min my experience (im a Personal trainer and nutritionist) there are a number of pathways through which excess weight could contribute to ED. Likely high cholesterol...

    I found these podcasts (they are both podcasts and YouTube videos) from Huberman Lab to be really informative on this: for the second one, I hope you like your science - but its really awesome…
