Soooo - warning, sexually explicit content incoming - I decided to masturbate for the first time in a year and it turns out I'm completely flatlined - very little reaction to stimulation in the member, the ejaculation was very weak and not at a full erection. So I did some digging and it turns out the medication they've got me on after my psychotic episode does have this as a side-effect very often (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10039643/ - and they have me at a higher dose than the guy in this study). And I already had problems of that nature, though never when masturbating at least, ugh. I think I'll discontinue its use and will check my prolactin levels and then try to rebalance my hormones. I'll try talking to my psychiatrist about switching medications to what they suggested in this study, but I'll doubt she'll comply (she's kinda bitchy).
At least now I've got a "clear conscience" that it's "not my fault", as they say, oy vey.
Maybe OED new-gen will have something to restore hormonal balance for good, strong erections? Here's hoping!
