Anybody else mentally not anxious around sex but when they are touched their body doesn’t seem to respond in an erection. It can feel good and be aroused but not resulting in an erection. But I don’t have negative thoughts around it as I’m very comfortable with my partner
Only when I’m intoxicated or if I masturbated to closely to the event or both
I am intermittently in the same place. Everything feels good, not nervous, very aroused, but then whether or not I have or keep an erection is completely separate. I’m optimistic that this app can help sort some of that out, in particular being happy with whatever happens during intimacy.
I feel the same, not anxious or worried even when I’m with someone but can’t get hard. I might even be having a great time and getting into it, but my dick just won’t respond. Trying to work out if there’s some anxiety sitting under the surface, or whether even just thinking relatively neutral thoughts about not getting hard is getting in the way
That’s exactly what’s happening to me
Same here, my dick just doesn’t respond whatsoever 90% of the time, I’ll be keen and getting into it and won’t be anxious in the slightest. I’m only young and I feel like I’ve tried everything, I tried viagra and it did next to nothing. I can get hard by myself wich is the strange thing.
The fact is there might well be some anxiety brewing there. I can’t speak for all men, but I am very good at burying emotions and feelings. Unfortunately, that causes anxiety and that manifests in various ways. Sometimes I don’t feel anything really. Sometimes I feel numb, blank or indifferent. This can be caused by stress too which also gets burried along with everything else. Try to release some tension physically with excercise, get some endorphins flowing. Allow some gaps in the armour to show and let some things trickle out. The armour isn’t only for keeping things out, it’s also for keeping things in. So try to take off some of that. Be vulnerable, be open, be brave. Then you don’t need the armour and you’ll be ok.
