Yeah, I'm actually still somewhat traumatized by condoms... I always just got whatever the local stores had, and those are ALL regular size (width is around 53mm or smaller). It was always very difficult to put one on; it was a real struggle to get it past that widest point and even after that I had to try and grab it with both hands and kinda lift and stretch it a bit in multiple places to get it on. And while I was getting frustrated and nervous with that my erection would start to go away (both from the frustration and the compression). It became a negative feedback loop to the point where I was anxious about it when I was thinking about having sex. And I felt next to no sensations when having sex, which didn't really help with the anxiety. It actually wasn't until some months ago that I realized I can order larger sizes from the internet. Now I'm using 'king sizes' (width is around 60mm), and its a lot more comfortable: I can push it down with 1 hand and the feeling is a LOT better. Actually with my main girl (IUD) we'll start out au naturel, and then I'll usually put a condom on towards the end and it doesn't even feel that different.
So if anyone's in doubt its definitely worth it to try different sizes. Correct size is more important than material thickness or the material itself, imo.
