Impotence & Erectile Dysfunction Support Group
Erectile dysfunction or impotence is a sexual dysfunction characterized by the inability to develop or maintain an erection of the penis for satisfactory sexual intercourse regardless of the capability of ejaculation. There are various underlying causes, such as diabetes, many of which are medically reversible. The causes may be physiological or psychological.
To say it's devastating is an understatement. I'm a totally different person. It's changed who I am for sure and it makes me very sad, to say the least.
I often think he's asexual and frankly with very few options after all this time, I feel totally trapped.
We have pills and they do seem to work when/if he takes them. I just feel like he's not working at all on the issue when I am trying so desperately to fix the problem for both of us.
I'm scared we'll never have children. I'm scared he'll never get better. But most of all, I'm scared that I'll lose him because of this.
I don't even know what to do anymore and it terrifies me.
We've tried Cialis and Viagra. Both seem to do the job they are supposed to. He does have caffeine but not a lot. No BP meds.
We have discussed it on several occasions and after we do he does make an effort for a few days with taking the pills, et cetera. But then he stops again.
I just don't want to make him feel like I'm pressuring him. I don't want to make the anxiety worse by "nagging" him. I just love him and I want us to be okay and to solve this together.
I've never been with anyone with this issue before, so it's a whole new ballgame for me. I'm certainly willing to do whatever it takes to help.
I can't thank you enough for your advice and words of encouragement.
I so frustrated that he expects me to way years again before he touches me again. We're going to the dr today to see about getting a daily medicine but why is this important to me and not to him?
I'm I just a bad wife who would like to have sex more than once (after I threatened to leave) in 4 years. I don't know how much I can stay here saying don't break up the family or your the perfect couple.
