Havenāt really done much other than sharing the issue with a couple of my friends. Mainly got the motivation to accept my issue and do something about it after starting Mojoā¦
No help at all. Some Youtube videos were I learned about Kegel exercises.

Wanted help coping with my issue as well as find a way to remedy it.
I went to a counselling service that was free at my college. That was really useful for me. I realised that porn could be problematic for me, and we talked about the potential for having a partner that would be understanding of me not being able to get an erection. I also went to a hypnotherapist, which was really interesting. He helped me visual what it would be like to be sexually confident and helped me get in touch with my subconscious voice.
No real support, I never really felt there was anything physically wrong with me I kind of knew it was always psychological. Discussing that with friends was just too intimidating for me.

With regard to Condom usage I found your video helpful but I also have some tips to add from personal experience in the past. I had a girlfriend who would get me hard with her hand then add a bit of lube then when I felt close to coming would put on the condom and then add more lubricant and continue until the erection regained full strength at which point we would begin love making. This worked most times.

Talked to a friend who mentioned going through the same problems after a bad breakup. Also starting going to therapy

I went to my doctor, then to a urologist. All directed towards mental. My psychologist also dismissed any physical issues and did credit stress, but we never dealt with it. Mojo has helped me in many areas I never thought of.

Getting hormones tested. Learning that I had low estrogen (testosterone was fine). Low estrogen can cause ED! Mine was not detected, and was due to some extreme dieting I had been doing. I used Life Extension, it was cheap and fast.
Went to a Urologist. He just gave me ED pills. It wasnāt helping to have intercourse but it does increase my erection quality.
Bought a few over-the-counter medication, Iām not sure if they worked or it was just a placebo. Me thinking about the placebo effect, gave me the idea that, the problem was actually implanted in my mind, from past experiences. And it was not something physical, because I could get it up sometimes, without any medicinal assistance, and I could get it up when Iām alone. Sometimes Iād go soft at the verge of penetration, that situation was the worst, especially for the girl. But anyway so far this programme is making me aware of a lot of things I completely ignored and also overlooked.
Currently having sex therapy. Try having a look at the linear/circular models of sex which is aimed at putting less pressure on getting an erection, I found it helpful
I reached out to Sex Therapist and had therapy for almost an year.
It felt like it was helping me at least in bits and pieces but wasnāt getting where I wanted.
I saw my GP who palmed me off with a prescription for Viagra. I have also seen a private urologist, who suggested that it was down to a combination of age and psychology and also seemed keen on the medication route. I had a session with a psychosexual therapist but felt that was just words and was a bit too ātouchy feelyā for me. I then had a number of sessions with a hypnotist/psychotherapist - the jury is out on that one! My concern is that something that was initially a one-off has become embedded as a bit of a vicious circle and I do really try to not think about it, believing that it is a situation that I am overthinking now. I am hopeful that following all the guidance here will eventually help.
