Pills no longer working, do I need a break?

I’ve kept increasing the dosages as the effects on my dick became less noticeable, but the side effects affecting my vision made me realize this is a bad strategy. At about that dosage, I lost all vision for a while and went to bed near blind, and took a nap till my vision returned. I can’t speak for what the Internet would say such doses do, just speaking to my own bad judgment in self-medicating. I’ve also fainted when standing up, and had some other bad symptoms.

I’ve been cutting down the dosages and am trying to cut sex out completely while I work through things with my therapist now. So far I haven’t been successful in going completely without sex, and I’m still not enjoying sex but just going through the motions. At least I know what path I need to go on, to get my life back.

Bro. It sounds like you may have depression/anxiety.l/midlife crises etc. There is no rule that you have to have sex. Taking too much ED pills can cause your blood pressure to drop. Low blood pressure is like a car running on fumes, dizzy, fainting and if blood pressure is low for a long time it can lead to heart attack, stroke, kidney damage, visual damage, etc. glad your attempt at the Darwin award failed. Get help. Do things you enjoy. Music, exercise. Find things you enjoy and do them. Once you get your mood back then you will enjoy many other activities.

Trimix injectable. And see your urologist.

If I ever have to put a needle in my dick for it to get hard, I'm just going to hang up my sex life forever.
I don't like needles.
I've also heard horror stories about Trimix. Like overdosing causing permanent dick damage.

Thanks for the further info, things to think on. I’m trying to figure out if I can get over seeing providers daily and two/three times a day sometimes, blowing almost 100k per year isn’t smart or healthy, when I’m just going through the motions and unhappy with everything. This hobby can drain all one’s time and money.

Meeting twice a week with therapist now, they suggested that I try to cut out sex from my life to see the extent of my issue and self control, if any. Also the seeking sex may be side effects of having no friends, no family, no significant other, no kids, no civilian relationship for 20+ years, just work and paying for girls. It just leaves an empty spot that dick pills can’t override anymore.

I thought about the injection route also, but probably need to get my mind in the proper place for now. So I’ll just live vicariously through others while I take a break from sex if I can. Almost like it’s my escape from boredom however.

Dude you need a hobby like fishing or golf. Join a car club, something.

Try to think of the positives. You have 100k to blow. Not many people have that much to blow on entertainment. If you are a high roller you will have people around you that are there for benefits. True friends are hard to come by. Find activities you like or used to like and do them. Stay away from drugs, alcohol, smoking. Money does not bring happiness but if used properly it can help make life easier. We don’t know each other and maybe never will, but I hope that you get your mojo back. You are on the right track. If the therapists you see don’t help you. Don’t give up. Try other ones. You may need to take medication for depression. Those take time to work also.
I honestly think with time and proper tools you will get some joy back in your life.
Lowering expectations is another useful tool.
Good luck bro. Don’t be a fool and repeat mistakes. ED pills only help blood flow, you still have to get turned on/aroused.
Good luck bro
