Penile Dysmorphic Disorder is a psychological disorder in which a man is excessively concerned about and preoccupied by a perceived deficit in the size of his penis.' This is not the same as micropenis, which is when a man indeed has an unusually small-size penis. The average size of an adult
Erect penis is between 5 and 6.5 inches in length and 4.5 to 5.1 inches in
Girth.
When I started my PE journey, I was a very respectable 6.3 inches (length) by 5.0 inches (
Girth). The fact that I was (at least) average did not prevent me from obsessing over my size. Why did I obsess over my size? I believe that it was due to a lot of things: low self confidence, the fact that I was tall and lanky (making my penis appear smaller than it was), access to pornography with actors who had freakishly large penises, etc.
I didn\'t realize at the time that I suffered from the psychological condition: Penile Dysmorphic Disorder.
Over 20 years later my penis is now 8 inches (length) x 7.5 inches (
Girth). According to all surveys, this size is ridiculously huge and very few men could claim such a size (especially with regards to
Girth).
Here\'s the kicker... When I look in the mirror, I still feel small. If it weren\'t for fact that I have access to all the penis size info on the net, and all the anecdotal evidence on our site, I would believe that I still don\'t measure up; in fact, I still have trouble this.
Last year I sent a picture of my (
Flaccid) penis to a member on this site to get his opinion on (penile) scar treatment. In his reply email he mentioned that my penis looked \"huge\". When I read this, I was surprised because I didn\'t see my Penis as being \"huge\" (note: my
Flaccid measurement is about 6 inches (length) x 6.5 inches (
Girth).
Last night I was with my girlfriend and I was naked. When I got up to go the washroom, , I hid my penis as I walked through the darkened room. Again, I felt conscious about my size.
It seems that (initially) after I have a PE procedure (such as
PMMA) done, I feel big, and have confidence. I look in the mirror and go \"wow, that is one big
Dick\". But as the months progress, I feel self conscious again and feel the need to get bigger (again).
Objectively, as I look at my case I can say that (without a doubt) I suffer from Penile Dysmorphia, but this still does little to remedy my condition.
Just wondering what other members\' thought were on this topic. Do any of you guys feel you suffer from this?
Perhaps the real question is how many of us on this site don\'t suffer from this (to some degree)?
