Nothing can damage your self-confidence more than being unable to achieve an erection and have sex. It doesn’t matter whether the causes are physical or psychological - or both. When it happens to you, it can knock your for six. Fortunately Erectile Dysfunction (ED for short) is treatable with medication, but you may find that your erections return a lot faster than your self confidence. See how to win back your self confidence and overcome any lingering worries!
Accept that you’re not perfect
If you experienced erectile dysfunction, you may have suffered a humiliation or embarrassment in the process. You probably worried about what your sexual partner thought about you and whether you’d be able to have a normal sex life in the future. Most men will question their manhood and personal sense of worth when they fail to achieve an erection. Logic, common sense, and medical facts might not be enough to overcome these feelings completely . If you can accept that you’re not perfect and that your body will inevitably fail sometimes it will be easier to deal with setbacks.
Getting Treatment is Empowering
It’s not easy to walk into your GP’s office and say that you are suffering from ED. Just to do that much takes a certain amount of courage. Finding the energy and determination to deal with an intimate problem gives you a boost that can extend into other areas of your life. It’s possible that your GP identified other health problems and getting these treated can improve your quality of life. Getting a scare from ED pushes many men into taking a look at their lifestyle and starting a new fitness regime. Weight loss and physical fitness are superb natural confidence builders!
A Fresh Start in the Bedroom?
Sometimes in life you have to do without something before you understand its true value. ED might be worrying and depressing - or even scary - but the right ED treatment may get you back in action within days. It’s a great opportunity to rebuild intimacy with your partner and develop a better sex life, especially if you also started a fitness program, or are taking care of underlying medical problems. A fresh start in bed and a satisfied partner will do wonders for your self-confidence and self esteem. The best-case scenario is that you’ll look and feel younger and will be able to have sex whenever you want.
