To the guys on the forum

I think the abilify im on makes me a little bit addicted to sex and masturbating. It could be that i struggle to feel excitement in life so i impulsively go to a dopamine quick fix like mazzing or whatever.
But to answer your question i always wake up with one if i hadnt mazzed the nighr before. I dont mind it. And its helpful being in a highly sexual relationship with my gf. Sorry of this is too much information haha.

when i was on olanzapine without zoloft i used to have nocturnal emissions every night. sex dreams that end in me waking up with splooge in boxers and having to wash up and change clothes. on zoloft i never get nocturnal emissions, ive been off it for some time now and just on olanzapine by itself but so far none. maybe it wont happen again

You’re a genius dude. :grin:

I don’t dream, I think it’s the meds.

But yes, I do wake up with erections.

Not every morning, but most. That’s how it’s been my entire life.

Sometimes they are intense and I have to lay in bed and wait for it to go away before I get up because I live with my parents and brother and sleep in my boxers and can’t walk around the house like that, lol

I’m 44. I’ve never had my testosterone or prolactin tested so I asked my doctor about getting them tested, so we’re testing my testosterone and my prolactin on my next blood test. She said the blood test has to be done in the morning because that’s when testosterone is the highest, which is a major reason why guys have morning erections.

I think it’s a pretty good chance your T is normal if you wake up with boner. I don’t though and still have normal testosterone… but I think I ■■■■■■ up my body from dieting and overtraining in the past.

I suspect my testosterone will be lower (compared with a 20 year old) because I’m in my mid 40s but I hope it’s normal for my age. We’ll see.

That’s something that hasn’t happened to me in about 4 years since I started Latuda.

My last wet dream was in the hospital 4 years ago. I dreamt I was banging the nurse :rofl:

I don’t miss wet dreams and waking up with sticky messy underwear.

Ohh yeah I don’t have wet dreams either. I just have sexual dreams

Not since my early 20’s

As a teenager; everyday.

My T was low from meds, but I’ve been off for a month now. In 2 months time I will get another blood test to see if I’m back to normal.

No, not any more. It’s the zyprexa.

@Mr_Hope How’s your med switch going? I forgot if I have asked before. You on latuda now?

Rarely. It usually goes away by the time i pee in the morning. Lost it with my fiance once. she said “you aren’t attracted to me anymore!” I should have said “you totally changed your personality!” now a days i don’t know if it’s not porn it’s a ton of talking to myself dirty to get it up. I don’t know.

The switch didn’t work. The latuda had to go because it gave me chestpain even at the lowest dose. Then we tried to up the dose of seroquel that I was taking for sleep, but that didn’t work either because after about 10 days I couldn’t sleep anymore at all. So I’m back on zyprexa.

i’M JUST GRATEFUL TO WAKE UP

Dammit, well at least you’re not on a high dose zyprexa. Me neither… could be worse, we could be on high doses.

I wasn’t sleeping well on 6,25mg zyprexa, and when I came off zyprexa now for a few days I realised that I have very poor physical health. I had pains in my stomach, chest and back. Zyprexa almost works as a opioid on me. I can’t feel the state of my body. while taking it. I will have to up my dose of zyprexa to get better sleep. I will probably have to take 10mg just for sleeps sake.

Before starting testosterone therapy I couldn’t achieve an erection. Now that I’ve been on trt for a while, the wind blows and the lil trombone thinks it’s time for the concerto.

How old are you? Just wondering cos I don’t think trt is available for most people under 30.

I’m not sure if I want it cos I feel fine atm.

I’m 31. It depends on the person, and I started it at 30. I’ve had severe hypogonadism since puberty, though.

Few times a week.

Never had a wet dream, but I’ve woken up to little man at full attention.

Almost feels like a waste to not use it while I’ve got it.
