Stay sober, the longer you do, your desires will change in what you want from a woman or man? Not tryna throw a diss but whatever you like you like idgaf. When I went sober I thought my libido was trashed but the reality was I changed and my desires/ morals changed as well as my lifestyle. Eventually what I wanted came into my life and I found out my libido was def not crashed.
Would pantoprazole count as a PPI (don’t know what the alliteration means)
Yeah I’ve been alcohol free(never did anything else other than booze) for 10.5 months. I’d say this lack of any or much of sexual desires goes beyond that since getting sober because I feel like I lack emotions about 90-95% of the time, nothing really excites me other than my morning gym session, I don’t look forward to much of anything. I’m neither happy nor sad. It’s really weird. But a huge positive take away from it is being able to focus on important shit(instead of constantly chasing puss) like finances, Completely turned my life around in that aspect, and my health/physique, which is a work in progress lol.
PPI stands for proton pump inhibitor, and yes pantoprazole is in the category
You’re just going through a re balancing phase or just now noticing who you truly are without mind altering substances, which may just be a very even keel focused individual whose emotions are so balanced they seem non existent
It’s not a libido increased juts provides more blood flow get some oxytocin in your life
Yeah I know. I just use them for preworkout. I was just saying it would be nice to see those effects people talk about from this drug, however, I’m not dealing with ED, just drive. And when you say oxytocin, do you mean the old fashioned way or the peptide lmao there’s a difference
The peptide my friend lol
I’ve mildly looked into it. Is that something you’ve taken? If so why and how did it affect you?
Just throwing this out there, if you've taken BPC 157 or Retatrutide before they can cause anhedonia. The former has actually shown promise in helping with anhedonia, but there are many reports on Reddit of people taking it and then feeling emotionless.
I’ve heard about that with BPC but not Reta. I am on a lower dose of Reta right now. However, I’ve only been on Reta for about 11 weeks. I’ve been emotionless/zero libido for around 10.5 and that started as soon as I quit drinking. Testosterone is high, estrogen is in range. Haven’t tested prolactin or SHBG yet. But I’ve only been on Reta and a normal dose of test for most of the time but I started running 500mg when I started Reta
If you Google around you will find some anecdotal experiences of people getting anhedonia while taking retatrutide.
They're also linked with esophageal dysplasia and carcinoma. The cells lining the esophagus and stomach need an acidic environment to be healthy. When you turn off acid production with a PPI, and have biliary reflux too (which is common), that environment becomes alkaline and the cells develop what is called intestinal metaplasia, then become dysplastic which can ultimately proceed to cancer.
Pay attention boys, we just got taken to school here!
Have you tried PT-141? I haven't but I read it works well. I'd also try TNE to see if it short term gets you in the mood. Your dopamine and Serotonin is probably all jacked up and needs a reset. I'm not sure how to do that long term but a visit to a psyc Dr. maybe in order. PT 141 is bremelanotide and I am sure you could get a script with a wellness Dr. Other alternative therapies..ketamine, Ayahuasca, ecstasy, etc. SSRI as last resort. Life is short, try some things.
When I put 10.5 I meant 10.5 months. You’d think my dopamine/serotonin would’ve somewhat recovered from some serious drinking in that amount of time, if that’s what it is. But no I have tried PT 141. My luck with a couple of the feel good peptides hasn’t been great. One guy recommended oxytocin, I might try that. The idea is at least promising.
Takes over a year for the brain to actually heal, 45 ish more days ain’t nothin… keep it rolling
I started PT-141 recently. I've been put on antidepressants and other things like viagra etc. The desire wasn't there so the blue pill didn't help. When I tried PT-141 I had sex with my wife 3 times in 1 day. I won't lie, it is a game changer! I experienced a little nausea but like melanotan, you can take a less drowsy dramomine tablet to combat that. PT-141 lasted the whole day with random erections throughout. I was at hopes end before taking it. I highly recommend giving it a try.
