Serious Erection Problem
Posted: 02-06-07 00:41am

I have been married for nearly 13 years and have never had any problems with an erection. Well my wife had an affair several months ago that crushed me literally. I thought I would have told her to go take a hike but the feeling of her being with another man made me realize just how much I love her.

To make a long story short I now find myself trying way too hard when it comes to sex as if im trying to impress her so she will be satisfied with me. What this does is causes severe anxiety and makes it impossible to get an erection most of the time.

If we have spontaneous sex im fine but when it comes to me pleasuring her for a length of time it gives me time to "think" about my erection and it goes away. My wife is really trying. She has even been trying to give me oral sex and I have gone soft while she was doing that which totoly humiliated her.

The sad part is that our marriage is better than it has eveb been now and this problem is screwing it up. I take cialis, and levitra and it doesnt help because I guess when the fear and anxiety set in it just blocks my natural felings of stimulation that I should be feeling and that I want to feel.

I really need the advice of a doctor of how to overcome this. For the time being I ould even take the tri mix injections until I get my mind right. Where can I get this tri mix and what does it normally cost? Thanks

If your problem is largely psychological, then the last thing you need is more drugs pumped into your body. You have to tackle the psychological aspect. I can certainly understand why you might be having problems keeping erections after that. It does not sound like drugs are the answer, however. Marriage counseling would probably do more for you than drugs at the moment.

Ok. What kind of doctor do I need to see? Its all in my mind I already know. I need physchotherapy I think. What could a eurologist do for me? I just need the problem gone before it wrecks the good marriage that we have now.

I doubt a urologist could do anything for you since it does not sound like your issue is physical in nature. Counseling, probably marriage counseling, would be your best bet. That would be getting to the root of the problem as opposed to just dealing with the symptoms. You can check your phone book to see what therapists are near you.

Marriage counseling might be good for both of you. Cheating isn't always physical. So if your wife cheated for emotional reasons, therapy could also help to get to the root of that issue and hopefully decrease the chances of it happening again.

You could also look into sex therapists. You could look for exciting new ways to spice up your love making.

Since it sounds mostly psychological the advice above is good and should be looked into. Also, since it's psychological and your marriage is doing good i'd suggest talking about it with your wife. She feels bad thinking it's her fault, and you feel anxious to please her and lose your erection. If you talk you'll ease both of your anxieties and hopefully help.

Just a bit more information even though your problem is psychological, you can find a book that entails how to overcome ed naturally. I don't mean herbs even, though that may help, I mean giving your body what it needs to maintain sexual health. Just like your heart, liver, muscles, etc. Need nutrition and certain ingredients, so does your sexual systems. It'd never hurt to do this for sexual health throughout your life, but you should start with easing your anxiety since that's your problem.

dont bother, its just spam. I totally agree with the others, this is not really a sexual issue, this is a personal issue between you and your wife. What she did has hurt you and killed your confidence and trust, these are the aspects you need to build on. Sex drugs would only act as a sticking plaster to the problem, when it needs to be tackled at its root. Marriage councelling may help, yes. I wish you the best with whatever route you take to mending your marriage.

Dear, forcefan. I actually understand the difficulties you have been exprienced. I can advice you to read and try "taoist secrets of love" by mantak chia. You can try google to find that book. From me I have to notice that I had some experience with my wife after reading that book. And "tao" is a powerful instrument to improve not just your health of body and also it works with you mind. So, if you are interested try to read and practice some of the tao secrets. It can really help. But this way of treatment demands time and patience. For me I combine this method with pills such as cialis or viagra (actually I buy them at http://www.Edselected.Org - good and stable pharmacy online) cause I have not so strong and hard penis. But after having some practice in tao I can satisfy my wife enough. So, I wish you good luck and patience. Don't give up!

Hey forcefan,

was the reason why your wife cheated on you sex related? Why do you have to try hard to please her?

all I know is that for 12.5 years I didnt have this problem. After my wire cheated on me it started happening. Its like I am now under pressure to perform. Im under pressure in my mind to be great in bed. My wife can come up to me and just say something sexual in nature to me and I will get an erection. Alot of times I will be just fine right up until the time it comes to penetration and I will get nervous and anxious to the point of shaking. I loose my erection.

This really sucks because like I have already said, my marriage is really doing good now except for this. My wife has fallen in love with me all over again but I stay depressed because I know I have this problem. I really want to take advantage of this new love we have. I have so much I want to do sexulally with my wife now and I feel like I cant because of this.

Its all in my mind and I just want it to go away.
