Just wondering if anyone had this issue before. I am taking the 5mg daily and it was working for 2 months and doesn't seem to help anymore. I still get morning erections with it.
Cialis quit working, any ideas?

Stop taking it for a few days and see what happens, are you taking it for ED or for recreational sex.
I am taking it for ED that I have been experiencing for a few months. Uro seems to think it is psychological. I will try stopping and see if that helps. Thanks.

You may have to make an honest assessment of yourself.
What stressors are going on in your life? Fitness Level, Alcohol Consumption etc..
I agree with BigO, take a break from the stuff.
Cycle the stuff much like I do with Creatine for my fitness regime.
Good Luck and keep us informed as to your results!

Stop drinking alcohol. Stop consuming any type of drug. Stop watching pornography. Hit the treadmill for 45 minutes a day and don't be a pansy about it.
Problem solved.

I exercise 6 days a week, hardly ever drink and stopped watching porn 2 months ago. I started taking wellbutrin again this last week, as it only seemed to make things worse when I quit. At least when I was on it I didn't feel so depressed about a failure. I had previously taken cymbalta for around 9 months, which I believe started the problem.
Yeah stop taking it. Save it for "emergencies" and then take two pills, not one.
More seriously, you better figure out the cause of your ED and deal with it. Your body builds up a tolerance to drugs, plus drugs do not fix or cure your problem. Your ED is your responsibility. This forum eliminated my ED. The answers are here. Keep looking. Keep asking. Good luck.

If your problem is because of your meds, well that makes sense. The answer is obvious. Stop taking your meds and feel like a man again! Look up safe and natural alternatives to your meds, or just quit if you can handle the rebound effect. You can do this.
Your body could be adapting. As with any drug or supplement, I always recommend taking off at least two days a week to delay the adaptation process (even with basic ones such as caffeine, melatonin, etc. this can go a long way).
Also, as draggin says, if you started taking wellbutrin and that's when your new problem started, the answer is probably there.

No, the problem didn't start with wellbutrin. It was with the other drug, cymbalta. The dr started me on wellbutrin when I came off of cymbalta as it known to have less side effects. I think taking cymbalta is one of the worst decisions I have ever made. I trusted my doctor, but it was my responsibility to research it, and I didn't. I have taken wellbutrin in the past and didn't notice any side effects besides more sensitivity sexually.
I wish stopping anti-depressants was as easy as saying it, but it isn't. I have had serious depression / anxiety since I was a teen and stopping them all together is very difficult. I was off of everything for a month and am now feeling horrible. I am hoping that wellbutrin won't cause as many problems. I think my depression is to the point where it contributes to the problem as much as an anti-depressant does.
Thanks again for the responses. It is nice to know people are listening and have had success.

Not quite that simple, besides do you know if he drinks, does drugs and is hooked on porn. To be honest you threw that out there like you actually know something, did you sleep at a Holiday Inn last night?
It is good to offer advice but not all good advice is good, unless of course it is related to the problem, next time ask what may be causing it before you assume. There are many guys in excellent physical shape with ED, its true.
Your Uro, if he is qualified to treat male sexual dysfunction and is not a pill pusher, should be able to perform appropriate blood tests to track down the root cause of your ED. Some uros are not well trained in ED and you may want to make a change.
