Impotence is currently the most common men’s sexual problem in the world; psychological impotence is possibly the most inadequately understood and mishandled men’s sexual disorders. Not many people are conscious about the fact that in most cases psychological male impotence is more common than physical impotence, and they have a cure. The reason why I am writing this article is because psychological impotence is very popular among men and I would like to mention the most important facts about it, since I did some research recently about psychological impotence. It is also referred to as performance anxiety or “fear to fail”, and it causes a lot of anger, frustration and loss of self-esteem in guys.
The truth is that a man who is constantly worried about getting an erection cannot relax and probably will not be able to get the erection that he wants. The only way these men can solve their problem is by getting psychotherapy so they can get rid of that anxiety. There are other causes like drinking too much alcohol, fatigue, anger, worry, guilt or any number of other emotional factors that can lead to psychological erectile dysfunction after all, so guys should be careful with that as well if they want to prevent this problem in the near future. Just so you know chances are you may be able to have an erection under some conditions but not in others, so if you cannot get an erection once that does not mean you have impotence for real.
The morning erection can be a clue on those cases when it comes to psychological impotence, because if you are able to experience or maintain an erection upon waking up in the morning that usually means that there is no physical problem at all, it was just a momentary situation that occurred once.
There are emotional issues in almost every case of erectile dysfunction that can gravely affect the man’s self-esteem and his relationships. A lot of men fault themselves for their psychological impotence even when it is clearly caused by a physical problem over which they have little or no control at all.
Relationship troubles, anxiety, depression, tension are some of the psychological impotence causes. There was a study where 82% of men who reported moderate to severe erectile dysfunction also had symptoms of depression, and depression can certainly reduce sexual desire, even when it is not clear which condition shows up first.
There is a good way to get rid of psychological impotence and help your libido, and that is becoming active. You need to go out often, work out, meet people and join with the crowd. Being active will give you no time to stress or get depressed again and that will be a great option to handle psychological impotence.
