    Hi, this is embarassing?

    Can hypnosis cure mild impotence?

    Im only 25 but now and again and cant seem to maintain an erection for very long and its driving me crazy! Ive been with my girlfriend for about a year and a half and for most of the time the sex is fantastic, but now and again I dont feel very confident and I get nervous (I think!) and I loose my erection. Its embarassing and its driving me crazy, my girlfriend has been very understanding and has been telling me its down to me thinking Im no good at it, when she always convinces me Im great! I know I can please her when Im relaxed, but its just so hard to relax sometimes and I worry I'll loose my erection!

    Ive been to the doc before about this and he gave me viagra and other tablets, these obviously work and help my confidence for a while, but I dont want to get dependant on them, Id prefer to be confident in myself, knowing that its me doing all the work (so to speak).

    Does anyone know if hypnosis can cure my problem? The reason I ask about hypnosis is that Im sure its a psychological problem!

    The doc said that sex therapists are for people who dont turn each other on and dont feel very sexual. Im the opposite, my girlfirend turns me on so much but its frustrating not being able to do anything about it!

    Please help, and no smart comments please...

    Thanks!

    Frustrated!

    First things first, it's not impotence, mild or otherwise your suffering from. That's a whole other kind of thing.
    What you're going through is something that loads of guys go through. From what I know it's probably just a psychological problem. One that the more you worry about it the worse it seems to get. All you need to do is relax a little and not worry so much. I know that's easier said than done.
    You said your girlfriend is very understanding, how about when your together you don't actually have sex! That would straight away take the pressure off. No performance pressure (self induced or otherwise) equals no problems. Then your confidance builds up and next thing you know you're not worried at all.

    Hope this helps.

    I suppose I loose confidence in myself, worrying that I might loose my erection again mainly... once I maintain the erection I know what she likes and I know I can please her...

    I wouldnt be worried about former lovers at all...

    The thing is that once it happens its REALLY hard to get my normal confidence...
