For any guys suffering with performance anxiety this might help. For years I’ve been affected by ED due to my performance anxiety but now I’ve figured out how to get over it (This is my experience so don’t necessarily expect it to work for you)
The simple answer is to not care. Which sounds silly but it’s the honest truth. After a breaking point I decided to go deeper into why this was happening to me. I sat with a pen and paper and listed all the possible things that were likely affecting my performance anxiety. I came to the conclusion that I wanted to please my partners too much; And also that I wasn’t fully comfortable with my size. I’d recommend doing this, but don’t just write a few sentences. Really go into it and challenge negative thought patterns that may be affecting you.
After truly accepting that what I was putting pressure on myself for was stupid, I had no problem in the bedroom. I was treating sex like a test which led to the ED. But it’s not a test. It’s two people coming together for mutual pleasure. You need to care about yourself and what you gain from the experience and not worry about anything you can’t change. So find out what’s stopping you and accept that in the grand scheme of things that it doesn’t really matter. Focus on this, get comfortable and enjoy. You matter too.
Thank you brothers, all the best with your journeys.
