Don’t get depressed!
Headlines like this are worse than useless. Readers look at them and shake their heads. "Oh yeah," they sneer. "And how's about we tell the weather not to rain tomorrow!" which would be great in a desert climate, but not so good in New Mexico where the Desert Monsoon lives up to its name with flash flooding. Or something. We can all have the best of intentions when it comes to offering advice. What we need to say can sound great as we write the words. But something happens as the words pass over to you. They grow clunky and patronizing. Not surprisingly, they are like water off a duck's back to you. Yet we do need a way of passing on the news of the latest research so please forgive any insensitivity in the headline and carry on reading. It's now common knowledge that erectile dysfunction is a first sign of possible heart disease in younger men. Artherosclerosis is a hardening of the arteries. The penile artery is one of the smallest in the human body. If hardening is taking place, the first sign of it will be when your erections start to fail. That's why you should always check a full medical check-up if erectile dysfunction shows itself while you are still young. The tests could save your life - the preventative treatments can keep you healthy for years to come. As a matter of common sense, men who suffer erectile dysfunction are not likely to stay happy. The mood will darken as performance anxiety persuades you to avoid situations in which sex might be expected. This is a challenge to self-image and reputation. As you deal with comments from others and try to accept the idea of no sex until things are fixed, it's easy to get depressed. But here comes the problem. Many of the antidepressants you could buy online can cause erectile dysfunction. You might find yourself feeling happier in yourself but with no libido while you continue taking the pills. Kind of between a rock and a soft problem. Researchers have recently finished a study with 2,300 men who were diagnosed with erectile dysfunction and depression. The results have challenged the common sense linkage. It now seems erectile dysfunction and depression may independently cause heart disease. This is not erectile dysfunction causes depression and they combine to cause heart disease. Depressed men are more likely to have a heart attack no matter how well they perform in bed. So, if you are depressed, hold off on the antidepressants and take Cialis. This will do wonders for your sex life and may help improve your mood. Have all the tests for possible heart disease and, if appropriate, take the drugs to keep you healthy. But don't take antidepressants unless the situation is desperate. This usually kills your interest in sex and there's nothing Cialis can do to bring it back. Obviously, it's better not to get depressed in the first place, but telling you not to get depressed is the original lead balloon - no mention of that here.
