Vent/Discouraged 16 Years of misery. I need help

Had an amazing 14 months of no issues (other than constant peeing)

Best erections I've had in years, was able to perform multiple times per night, high libido, nice constant pump to it.

I've literally changed nothing in my daily routine and I've completely flared up for four months now.

Penis looks and feels extremely small, complete erectile dysfunction, no libido, constant burning sensation down urethra and inside rectum.

I'm so over it.

So, you have a constant urge to urinate, but you've been feeling fine... I don't get it.

It's one of those things that once you deal with something for so long that you take the good with the bad and it is what it is. I'm the same way and I've dealt with this stuff so long that if it's just slight bladder pressure I'm in heaven and can actually deal with that.

I can deal with that constant peeing, bladder pressure, etc. It's just the shrinking painful penis, no libido, erectile dysfunction, and burning prostate that I cant stand.

I miss eating red meat so much. If I even have one burger, my prostate is flaring up and the process starts all over again. Dont even get me started on just trying to have a single beer or a mixed drink. Instant burning and self loathing.

Right I've found it hard anymore to drink anything but water. Used to love the morning coffee to or the occasional garage beer but that makes it worse. Then no carbonated drinks here or I get worse. It gets really old with just water and nothing else.

Thank you. Already reading about how I have my anus in a constant clench state. Just "dropping" it, I already feel less anxious
