I am on medication, and it's been invaluable for someone with a history of clinical depression.  Along with talk therapy, it's been very helpful.  My advice to anyone - have a genetics test done (they're $300) prior to going on an antidepressant.  I suggest that because physiology can vary so widely that some antidepressants (or any drug) my not be properly absorbed by your body.  The sudden loss of an identity I strived for years to earn and maintain, and was the proud of, is something I'll just have to work through overtime. The upside is I have more time to see clients, which is something I still enjoy. Thanks for your other suggestions - some are things I really should be doing, as well as getting my dissertation finished by the end of Spring.

I think I've given 5-7 guys genuine, full body anal orgasms, and knowing I got them off in that way is truly flattering... It's up there with getting guys so turned on they anally lubricate...

As soon as they make the 4th booster more widely available, I'll get it then.

I got it a few days ago and I know several people in their late 40s who are scheduled to get their second booster through cvs.com

Thanks for sharing info on the DayUse app!

Some info in this thread where others and myself mention the DayUse app, some other recommendations in the thread as well.

There is no universal key to orgasm.
Excitement can be the thrill of connection and it can be the fear of strangulation.
Both positive and negative impulses can get you there
You just need to understand your turn ONS and be willing to share those with your partner.

I have just stopped worrying about it.  I can cum in no time when I'm beating off, but it takes me forever with a partner - even with my husband.  I still have a great time with guys, but I just don't orgasm or cum that much.   I don't expect providers to come either - so I'm easy to satisfy.

Stop thinking about Margaret Thatcher

Having gotten a PA, I can attest any discomfort only last for a few minutes. It's really not that bad. 

I totally agree about small and mid-sized cities. If I'm in a market like that, it's generally for other reasons, but I use it as an opportunity to see clients. And you're right, if you're in one of those mid-sized cities, demand will dry up after a few weeks. It'll be interesting to see what happens next once we get to 'herd vaccination' for COVID (no such thing as herd immunity with COVID).

Hey guys: I was wondering how those of you manage your depression when you're already doing all of the right things like a) taking your meds, and/or b) in talk therapy.  Oddly (or maybe not), being a service provider helped quite a bit with my depression in a couple of different ways.  But, since COVID began, and only having a few clients in the last 18 months, that 'depression relief valve' isn't really there. I've always been a lone wolf, so I don't have a circle of friends or 'tribe' like others do.  On top of that, my professional identity was shattered a month ago - just as I was entering the final stretch of my PhD. I still have a job, but it's not the job that I always strived towards.
Its been tough on everyone over the last 18 months... I'm curious how those who suffer from clinical depression have found outlets that helped mitigate those feelings. 
Thanks guys... Cheers!
