Is it possible to be happy in life without recieving sexual gratification

Question

A few weeks ago I got an injury and I am unable to maintain and erection, or it is very diffucult to, I am not one to load myself up with pills and injections so I dont know if I have to face a life of no sexual gratification or kill myself

This is truly a nightmare, the 1 thing that I got satisfaction out of life was either masturbating or looking at girls and hoping to be with girls

I cant believe this happened, suicide seems like the logical solution, I dont think I can go through life the other way, what is the point

Answer 1

I just want to say that I feel very sorry for you.

Do not commit suicide, that is the worst thing you could ever do.

s*x is not the only thing that matters. In fact I'm a virgin with a great life. There's so much more. Friendship, Money (Yes i said money), Satisfactory job, and so much more.  

Answer 2

You will kill yourself rather than take a viagra?

Jeez man

Your priorities are screwed up.

Take the pill, stay alive and have a happy life.,

Be grateful you can still see and hear

what an ingrate

Answer 3

I definitely agree the first answer with megan. ;)

Answer 4

if you truly think the only thing important in life is s*x then you seriously have something wrong with you.  

Answer 5

I am a man, and s*x is no where NEAR the only thing that matters, at all.  Don't get me wrong, i'd be super extra pissed if I was in your position, but don't you think it's kinda shallow that your only focus is stimulating your p***s?

it's like those monks that make those huge works of art out of sand, and then destroy it and throw it in a river, to show that nothing lasts forever.  You got dealt a bad hand, but things could be MUCH worse.  especially because the way your are explaining things, things could get better.

You need to do some searching, and expand your life in more than just masturbation and getting laid.  i don't want to push someone to kill themself...but d**n, that is way too dramatic.

Answer 6

Don't do anything irrational. I'm sure it's just a temporary situation.

It might be beneficial for you to go see a doctor.

Answer 7

Maslow said one of the things that people desire is s*x.  You are in a very tough situation.  

You do have some options though.  You can have penile implant surgery.  You can also buy a vaccum pump which will help you get an erection.

You do have several medications which you can take by mouth.  

Another option is a penile suppository.  What you do is place it into the p***s and you get an erection.

Answer 8

Before I answer the original question, please note that suicide is never, ever an option for anyone to even consider.  I understand your frustration over the injury you had and how it has greatly impaired your ability to achieve erections and m********e.  Be assured that it is perfectly OK to talk to a doctor about sexual dysfunctions.  You might need to be on a medication to solve this problem and get your libido back to normal, as well as get other aspects of your physical health back in order.  You may also need some rehabilitative therapy, too.

Please note that I'm not against masturbation, as this is a perfectly natural, normal bodily function, just like anything else; however, the looking at girls and fantasizing about them in a sexual way can pose some problems.  Essentially, sexual thoughts of a person to whom you are not married is classified as adultery, and this is called sexual immorality, since it is outside the Biblical guidelines for marital relations.  It is possible to m********e without these lustful thoughts, and it feels just as good.

Concerning your suicidal plans, you are contemplating a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and I just don't see any benefit to killing yourself.  Please don't do it.  I do realize that you don't want to be on a drug.  Please keep in mind that if you do indeed need to be put on a medication for the dysfunctions you have, it probably won't be for very long, and it would be designed to help improve your libido.  Alternatively, you could consider seeing a naturopathic doctor about this.  They may have some ideas on alternative medicines you could be on instead of a chemical drug.  Often the natural alternatives work just as easily as the drugs, and have far fewer, if any, side effects.  Hopefully, these ideas will sway you away from your suicidal plans.  Better still, if you have not turned to Christ for your salvation and the forgiveness of your sins, I would encourage you to do so.  Ultimately, only He is the solution to all of the problems and burdens you are having.  Remember, that Christ bled and died for your sins, and mine, and the sins of the whole world.  He then rose from the dead to conquer sin and death and h**l.  Once you receive Him into your heart and your life, you can talk to Him everyday in prayer about anything you wish, including your problems.  The bible says "Cast your cares upon the Lord, for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7).  He will then lead you and guide you and conform you into His image as you learn to do His will for your life.
