Does this sound like Depression related ED

So last December, (2020) I fell into a deep depression it’s something I’ve always dealt with but never this bad. This time its more related to my current life situation. I do remember back few years ago when I used to take SSRI’s this similar occurrence happened and it went away after a couple weeks. I forget if I was under stress or depression at the time or if it was just the change in meds. I’m no longer on SSRI’s.
It’s been 3 months and I’m still dealing with my depression, although I feel things are starting to get better.

Anyway last December I noticed when my penis got hard the shaft would get hard but the head/glands wouldn’t. I know the head is not supposed to get rock hard but it seemed to have a lack of blood flow, it was like a gummie bear feeling lol I don’t know how to explain it it was just soft feeling with little blood flow. This obviously caused more stress as I didn’t know what it was figured it was just a stressful time and it would improve in a few days. We’re now almost 3 months later and the issue is still the same, My erections are not like they used to be, I get about 90% hard and the head/glands are the same they don’t get much blood flow.

At the time my diet was good not the best but better then it had been, Also I worked out 3-4 times a week.

I stopped working out in December because of how I was feeling but I’m gonna start again, I also gave up smoking weed for the first 6 weeks or so of 2021 and then I started again. For March I plan on working out as well as not smoking.
I feel or atleast hope my situation is caused by depression. During this time I have lost enjoyment of everything, all the things I used to like doing I no longer care for. Which makes my believe it’s also effecting my sex drive and causing this ED type issue. I say hopefully Depression related because I was also doing a light version of PE, Stretches and jelqs same as I’ve been doing on and off for years and never had an issue. So I don’t think I injured myself.

Sorry for this long post and my horrible grammar.

Hi taco lover, how are you?

I’m familiar with SSRI’s. I’m fighting depression my self. So, SSRI’s can really be the cause of ED. Talk to you psychiatrist, maybe changing the medicine you have your erections back.

For me, the best way to fight depression is focusing in my body image. Workout everyday in the morning, running at night, occupying my self with most productive activities as I can. The less I do, worst I feel.

As I said in my post I’m no longer on SSRI’s I haven’t been for a few years. But I agree with the working out thing.

I have ED caused by PMO abuse.

I discovered I’m addicted to porn when I got ED. For me to get my erections back I really have to get into nofap and reboot my brain (at least 90 days without porn, masturbation, orgasms, sex…). As an addicted guy, I never really got there, so I still relying on Viagra and Cialis.

Maybe you are just depressed, maybe you are also using porn, masturbation and orgasm as a escapism. If it’s the case, stop while you still not addicted.

Wish you best

Our mindsets are best positioned where real life visuals and stimulus is what’s on our mind. Porn is completely artificial and gives dopamine hits for “poor performance” ( jagging off ).
