    Thank you my friend, its true a positive feeling is a thousand times stronger than a negative thought or fear.
    YOU are the creator of your happiness and your day thus your every need with the power of your thoughts -- Never forget that power....

    Hi all...things were very good yesterday night...had perfect sexual function and was intimate with my wife...i thought my issues were behind me...

    I had the libido of a 16 year old again...but it didnt last very wrong

    Until today i got struck with a genius idea...i pleasured myself to orgasm...right after that i felt guilt...extreme guilt as to why i didnt save it for my wife....as well as was anxious to see if i could still get it up...and boom the symptom hit again....weaker erections...

    Qhat i did to get better earlier was just get on with my life and try my best to feel emotions...thats it...accept every negative thought and emotion...hopfully this is temporary and i'm back to normal within a day or two

    You know the answers my friend, when you give in to thoughts of doubt, well it grabs you and holds you back.Practice each time these thoughts come on you feeling them but also remember to re-frame them to a better thought ok.

    I want to add a quote I read from a member here named sparkle -

    Quote) - ultimately we choose our reactions. (Not that we might not have been influenced in certain, sometimes overwhelmingly strong, ways. It's not what happens to us, but the story or meaning we make out of it, that gives rise to our reaction. So many examples abound of how our perceptions are choices and our reactions too are choices we make, consciously or non-consciously

    Bless you

    I recently read a quote by Joyce Brothers, the advice woman, and she said
    "The best proof of love is trust."

    My stepfather was incredibly jealous of anyone giving attention to my mother. That made us all sick.

    Yes, now your back on a roll, loose the fear thoughts and focus on the outcome you want, not what you don't want ok. You give power to the emotion and thoughts you focus on. Think on the good thoughts only and the psychological thoughts only and you will create positive emotions. You are the creator of your emotions and feelings in your body by your thoughts -- now give yourself a well deserved time for compassion and peace, self control and hope and never entertain those fears cause you are the captain of your ship. Bless You
