Intrusive thoughts

I often think that in spite of all the progress I’m making, when it comes to getting hard in front of a naked woman I will always fail. Has anyone managed to overcome this thought? Can you share your experiences?

For me it’s about adjusting my expectation about what “overcoming” the thought means.

I will probably always HAVE the thought… just that gauging the intensity of my belief in it is how I track my progress.

I know it sounds cliche, but hope that I can overcome the thought has been critical for me. It comes in waves, weeks at a time where I feel like I am regressing. And… the tracking of my progress keeps the hope alive. The overall trend shows that the weeks of “regression” are not the pervasive truth.

I’m heavy, short, and have a below avg pecker that only seems to work when I’m alone….
I got divorced recently and the thought of being naked with a new partner scared the living shit out of me! The thought of dating at 53 was crushing! I managed to find someone who is as caring, empathetic and understanding as they get. She’s a big reason I’m having sexual successes.
You can do it. Start simple by making a pact to do something good for you each day. You’re here- commit to working the app each day. Find the explore tab and work on the exercises there. Start eating better.
Simple successes will start to have a positive effect on your self esteem.
