Help...Medical Issue

Hi guys, I have been a fan of this website for more than ten years. I used to post using the name "rockhard" but I cannot find my password and or email address I signed up with. I missed all of you.

Anyway here is my health issue. I am suffering from Depression and Anhedonia for the past nine years or so and I am taking some heavy duty medication. My penis has disappeared. It has become very tiny. It is difficult to urinate. Sex is not going to happen. I have spoken to my doctor but he refuses to look at it. I don't know what to do. I am fifty years old East Indian male.

I have lost my confidence.

Thanks for your feedback.

Depression and connected issues are no joke. Have battled them myself, gladly made it through the depression part. Medication can be a tough thinbg, when we look at side effects.

Try to visit some other doctors, best look for some advice which are the better ones in your area.

Depression is not a final thing, you can get over it.

One thing that massively helped me was daily work, physical labor, whoch gave me new perspectives on life, and changed my rather saggy body. You should try that!

Seriously ? Wha kind oof a doctor is this ? What kind of doctors refuses to look at a patient medical issue.
What you describe seems serious man, not the kinnd of issue you can trust internet people you know nothing about to help you with. You MUST have a doctor to look at it, by any possible mean.

Sorry for your condition.

Is this you?

It says you were last here in April 1, 2017 at 7:07 am. You do need to write this stuff down: u/n, password, email address etc. Write it down on the back of an envelope if need be.

Now what befuddles me?

1. How many email addresses have you had during the last six months? Since April 2017?
2. A password should be easy to remember. It doesn't take rocket science here. It's your birthday, pet's name, favorite sports team, etc.
3. You can have Google save the FreeOnes website (u/n and your password too) as one of your favorites.
4. Do you keep information on sites you've joined? u/n, password, member #, subscription #. Most people do. Put all of that information into an excel file. Keep it handy.
5. Lastly, if you can find that email address, try to email the FreeOnes webmaster for your password and other information.

Wow....way to be a decent human being.

Indeed. What an asshole thing to say to someone. I'm sure glad I don't know you. What an irony it will be someday when someone laughs at you for a physical problem, Nicole. Perhaps you'll remember this.

WilliamsLake....I would ask you what kind of doctor are you seeing? What drugs are you taking? Did he prescribe them? Did you get referred to him or is he your regular physician? I would certainly get another opinion. There are many ways that impotence and ED can be treated successfully. I can't imagine that anyone who is taking drugs for depression should have to simply accept sexual death as part of the regimen!

Do you suffer from BHP? If so, that can be contributing mightily to your problem. You should consult a urologist to see if the problem is physiological. If it is a side-effect of the drugs you are taking I would find other alternatives. First and foremost, I would most certainly not simply accept what this doctor is telling you. After all, if it were his sex life we were discussing I guarantee you he would not simply shrug it off.

Feel free to PM me if you need someone to talk to.

Step one is fire the fucktard that calls himself a doctor, and find a new one...and do it NOW. A doctor....any doctor you go to, works for you. If they disregard any of your concerns, they aren't someone you should give any respect, let alone your trust, or money. You can be fixed, but not by this clown.

Thanks man. I have no recollection of this. I think the last time I signed in was five years ago. No new email addresses in a number of years. I do not remember things like before. I told my psychiatrist and psychologist many times but all they do is take notes and look at me as if I am a new creature on earth.
There is a whole team of therapists and doctors working on my case.

In 2004 I started working for a medical lab as a driver. The money was good and I liked the job. My job included driving to various hospitals and doctor offices and picking up medial specimens. Things went well at first but after a few months other staff members started abusing me verbally. This got worse and worse. I filed many complaints but nothing was done. I was feeling overwhelmed. Every hospital I went to the staff abused me. They claimed I was early for the pickup or I should wait for them to finish doing what they were doing. I was on a very tight schedule and monitored by GPS. I got hell from my HR. They said I was wasting too much time. My union failed to help me. I started having nightmares every night. No sleep some nights. I felt physically sick. Eventually my family physician at the time sent me to see a psychiatrist in April 2014. As soon as I walked in his office Dr. Silverstone told me, "You are holding up a neon sign flashing severe depression." I was both relieved and scared because this is more serious than I thought. Dr. Silverstone told me I have to take a minimum of four months off work. I filled out the forms for Short Term Disability and I was off. My health did not improve. I continued to worsen. September 2014 I filed for Long Term Disability. By May 2015 I was bed ridden. I laid all day in bed and my sister had to come over and look after me. I had no motivation to get out of bed. I would finally get up around 11 pm and have breakfast. I was like this for several months. Only one of my close friends Tim phoned me. Joe who I had lent ten thousand bucks to a year earlier never phoned me. Joe had promised to repay me by the summer of 2015. John never phoned me. I have known these guys for thirty years each. I did not understand why Joe and John never called me. I felt very alone and sad. October 2015 a fourth psychiatrist saw me and placed me on Effexsor XR 300 mg. The side effects were awful but I started seeing some improvement. December 2015 I was able to go to group therapy once a week. Progress was slow. The summer of 2016 was better than 2015. I was able to go leave my house everyday but my sister had to help me with chores because I would forget what I am doing. December 2016 my doc switched my medication from Effexsor to Cymbalta 120 mg. I am still struggling today but I am more talkative. Sometimes when I meet my friends for coffee I complain that the abuse I endured at my work place caused my depression. My friends disagreed with me. They told me I was never abused at work. The people were merely rude. I asked my friends if they were present when the abuses occurred because I have eye witnesses to support my case. They said no they were not there but I must have done something to make people angry. These claims by my friends made me feel more ill. I did not understand why my friends were saying this to me. A few months back I asked Joe to start repaying me the ten thousand buck he borrowed from me. Joe told me, "I don't know what you are talking about. I don't have to listen to this." He got up and left. I still continued speaking to Joe because I want my money. Last month Joe was complaining rich people never worked for their money. They stole it. I said to Joe I worked for my money. Joe said, "No you didn't." I said, "Yes I did." Joe again said, "No you didn't. You stole it." He laughed and walked away. I was shocked. Why is this guy saying this? I do not understand what is going on. Yesterday I phoned Joe again and asked him to start repaying me even fifty bucks a month. Joe said, "I don't know what you are talking about." I reminded him of the dates etc. Joe said,"You never gave me any money." I said, "Yes I did." Joe said, "I am not going to listen to this." He hung up. Note I documented the dates and amounts of cash I lent to Joe. I have the ATM receipts to back up my claim.

So I was abused by staff in my workplace and now that I am depressed my close friends are basically calling me a liar. Note. I am not a rich guy. I have an ordinary house and car.

I have done many full time psychiatric programs at my local hospital but nothing has helped. I am currently doing Art Therapy, Men's Group, and Anxiety/Depression groups once a week. I try to keep busy all the time. Every evening I go out and meet people at Starbucks. I am doing every thing I can to get better.

I still get horrible nightmares every night and I often wake up drenched.

To conclude I am still on Long Term Disability and I keep hoping to recover soon. Sorry I veered away from my topic. I just wanted to let you guys know a bit about me and what is going on.

Thanks man.

---No BHP. Prostate is normal.

---This doctor is my current family physician. No medication from him. I see him at least once a month because of my disability insurance requirements.. It is very difficult to get good doctors. We have many Medi Clinics but the doctors change often so it is hard to find a solid one. My previous doctor disappeared.

---My psychiatrist have me on Cymbalta 120 mg. I see my psychiatrist any where from once a week to once a month.

---I see my psychologist every two weeks.

----------------------------------------------------------

Medications

2014....Fluoxetine (Prozac). Then switch to Cipralex.

October 2015 to December 2016....... Effexsor XR 300 mg.

December 2016 to current Cymbalta 120 mg.

---------------------------------------------

Thanks for the PM offer.

A huge Thank You for all your responses and words of encouragement. I will keep you guys posted. Thank you guys.
 
I just want to add the TDG problem I had at work. Transportation of Dangerous Goods. The staff at the places I picked up medial specimens from refused to follow the TDG rules. For example, if a patient had aids his or her blood sample has to be package in a special cardboard box and labeled correctly. The staff at the labs failed to do this everyday. I had to inform them I cannot transport specimens unless the box is correctly labeled. The staff would get mad and verbally abuse me. They just flatly refused to follow the Government rules. I did not make the rules the Government did. I have to follow the rules because I was the driver. All this stress everyday caused my depression and Anhedonia. Note..the other drivers (my co-workers ) did not follow the rules. They would pick up any specimen with or without labels and transport them. This is the main reason why the staff hated me.

Thank for listening.

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
You don't mention a relationship with a significant other so I am assuming you are single and not involved in a relationship at this point. ???

Just a couple of observations from a layman's perspective....there may be some sort of co-dependency between your perception of persecution at work and your depression (i.e. one may be feeding the other and vice-versa) going on. Has your psychiatrist mentioned this possibility? The issue between you and Joe concerning the money situation may also be a factor. Oftentimes drugs do not address this sort of thing at all. In fact, in my experience (personal or otherwise), drugs can exacerbate or even be a part of the co-dependency. Is Joe aware of your emotional issues? If so, he sounds like he may be trying to capitalize on them by fucking with you about the money. He's a prick if that's what he's doing and he's certainly no friend of yours for sure. I wouldn't let him off the hook....show him your ATM receipts and pin his ass to the wall about them. Of course, this issue is secondary to your emotional struggles even though it may be a part of their cause.

Your anhedonia....was this diagnosed concurrent with your depression or either prior to or afterwards? I would otherwise guess that it is a part of the depression. Staying in bed and not feeling any incentive to do anything are classic symptoms of clinical depression so I'd say the approach is probably spot on. I am not familiar with the effects of the drugs you are or have been taking with the exception of Cymbalta. I do know that most anti-depressants can have significant side-effects so I would definitely discuss them with your psychiatrist if that is a concern you might be having. Lastly, as far as you present GP is concerned, I would not rely on him for any suggestions or guidance as it pertains to your depression or anhedonia. Your psychiatrist would be much more attuned to diagnosis and treatment. Share your sexual problems wit him as well if your already haven't. I'm no doctor but it seems plain to me that your issues are intertwined between you work situation ((which has really got to be a major problem if it is giving your nightmares), your depression and anhedonia, your drug regimen and your sexual dysfunction. Find the key to one and I would bet the others will slowly unwind as a result.

Good luck and please keep us posted, amigo. I know it's difficult but try to remember that this too shall pass.

-=========================================


Note. Webmaster has merged my accounts. I am the same as WilliamsLake.

========================

You are correct. I am single at the moment. No gf.

My current psychiatrist never mentioned co-dependency of any kind. I will ask him next time I see him. I am trying to get another psychiatrist involved in my case. My current psychiatrist has sent me to other psychiatrists for second opinions in the past . Their diagnosis are the same.

Joe is fully aware of my depression. He did psychology in university but dropped out around year three. He reads psychology books all the time. Yes he has used me.

April 2014 ....Dr. Silverstone told me I have both depression and anhedonia. He only sees patients once at the University Hospital.

I have shared my sexual problems with my psychiatrist. I will mention it again on October 5th.

I do not ask my family physician for any drugs or advice. He is aware of my depression.

I want to thank you for taking time to respond to my issue.

I will keep you guys informed anytime I have something new.

A HUGE thank you to everyone.

Strangely phrased but possibly spot on. I would not stop taking the meds without medical supervision, however.
