New Guy trying this out

Hey just saying my shi, my inner critic has been messing with me telling me i’m not good enough etc and when im with my gf i can’t get hard. I have in the past but have always had the critic. I am still kinda new to sex and haven’t done multiple positions so moving not knowing what i’m doing also doesn’t help as my critic yells at me. My girlfriend knows obviously but it’s not a topic we talk about really as i’m embarrassed. Just seen a lot of people post their story so i am.

Stay strong man, try to keep your inner critic in control.
I am fearful of initiating sex with my wife because of ED, but today I said screw my inner critic, initiated sex and even got hard to the point we were able to have sex.
Try to shut your inner critic up and don’t think about not getting hard. You are good enough and you can do it.
Sounds to me like your inner critic is just an a… Just like mine.
Best of luck dude!

Your inner critic is not real, you are! Stick with the program, you got this! Don’t worry about not hai g that much experience with sex, I would suggest being forthright about it and learn with or from your partner. Don’t be afraid to step out of your box and explore new things with your partner. This is work and may be a longer journey than you want but just stick with it. Doing the lessons here and meditating has really helped me stifle my inner critic. It’s still there, but more quiet now. Best of luck to you.
