Hi everyone, I am a 23 year old male with what I think is a problem "down there." I will just be honest, as what I am about to explain is personal and not easy for me to do, but I feel is necessary to get my point across.

I have been masturbating daily since I was an early teenager, around 14-15 years old, and gradually even more than once a day, even up to 3 times a day as of recent years. I have always been athletic and in shape, but was never confident with girls due to the fact (I think) that I was tormented pretty badly by guys and girls in grammar school at a new school I went to for a year and a half, and I believe that this really messed me up in terms of confidence mentally. Anyways, just to give you a social background from college on, I drank heavily with friends and used to chew tobacco (which I quit 6 months ago) and still drink to this day, but in much more moderation and rarely am intoxicated. I recently started dating a girl who was a friend of mine for a long time, and invited her on a vacation that I took with a group of friends to "become intimate" after about 2 months of dating. As a side note, drinking is heavily involved each night of the weekly vacation. The first night with her there after partying for a while, I had no problem achieving erection during fellatio and keeping the erection. The following night, immediately prior to intercourse, I lost my erection after having an erection during the entirety of foreplay and could not get it back. As I assumed this was a one time thing, attributable to mostlikely alcohol, I figured I'd "shake it off" and move on, as I've had had sex in the past with other girls without a problem. Herein lies the problem since the incident I just mentioned.

In the past 4 or 5 days, it has seemed like my penis, even in a flaccid state, has shortened about an inch. And I have been able to achieve erections since then, but I would say at "80%", with the shaft still being kind of soft and not as long and hard as the erection used to be. Also, I used to get hard at the first sight of an attractive woman, but now I still think the same way about it, and get no response from my penis like I used to. As this has been going on for about 4-5 days now, I felt it's time to get someone's input, as it scares the s**t out of me to be honest. I'm wondering if it is due to the fact that I drank excessively for 7 days in a row, got little healthy sleep, and ate crappy foods the entire time (which unfortunately also caused frequent bowel movements and a loss of appetite as of the past 2-3 days), or if this is a bigger issue and I need to really be worried.

Also, just to give everyone a health background, I was always physically fit and active, but in the past 2-3 years have not been as active and have put on some weight, but am not obese by any means. I also used to use a lot of salt on my foods, but have been cutting back and almost never use any salt as of the past 4 months.

I feel like I kind of just threw it all out there as to avoid any clarification questions, but please ask away if anything comes to mind, and please offer any thoughts on my situation that you might care to do so. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I hope to hear from some of you out there soon. Take care!
