Modafinil reducing my sex drive and givine me ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION -- how the hell are there no posts on this yet?

Original post in this thread

[deleted] · 1 points

Edit: Mostly unbalanced advice, snarky remarks and a bunch of downvotes from people who don't want to even consider that modafinil can cause this, even after I provided sources. This happens every single time I ask for advice anywhere on reddit. Fuck this site forreal, you guys are assholes.

So I took my first Modafinil (Modalert) from Friday to Sunday. I took 50mg on Fri and Sat, 100mg spread across 4 hrs on Sunday, and it was all people crack it up to be.

However, on Sunday I was wondering why I hadn't thought of sex all weekend, and wanted to fap it just to make sure I can fap it. Sure enough, my erection quality was down by at least 30%. It doesn't get really hard anymore and loses erection as soon as I stop touching it. This can not happen guys! I have a girlfriend that I'm seeing on Wednesday.

I searched online a bit and barely found any reports of modafinil decreasing sex drive and erection quality. It's apparently a side effect that happens in 1 in 1000 people according to webmd EDIT: NetDoctor.

Does anyone know what I can do about this?

Also, does anyone know anything about drug interactions between modafinil and Tadalafil or Vardenafil?

Thanks

Well, EnormousGenital, it's not so much that your message is poor, it's that your delivery is poor. The response you are receiving on this thread is most definitely not due to the impossibility of lower libido arising from modafinil; as that can very well be a side effect. However, the manner in which you are trying to deliver that message is rubbing people the wrong way.

Saying that this site has gone to shit because of "the early 20s crowd" is to misunderstand the nature of that misconception. It's actually due to posts like yours saying things like: "I hadn't thought of sex all weekend, and wanted to fap it just to make sure I can fap it" or "I am in peak physical condition" or "...usually have raging boners all day." Not to mention your username is EnormousGenital, and you are constantly throwing out pseudo-masculine phrases in response to people. People don't like to read things like that, and their responses will reflect that sentiment.

In the future, know that delivery is just as important as the message itself.

It's time to have the Modafinil talk again.

It's been seven months since I made this post: http://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/199n7l/modafinil_posts/ We had a lull in the modafinil posts for a while, but now they are back in full swing. I just want to re

Here to warn the community that I've experienced debilitating rebound anxiety when taking l-theanine. It was 100 percent this substance. Quit a week ago and back to baseline. Theanine is going in the trash.

Talk to him about it. Modalet is just Modafinil. It is a lot safer than the Amphetamine he is on for ADHD. However, he should make sure you are okay with everything he is doing. You are his parent, afterall. But you need
