I was trying to have sex with this very sexy girl, and my erection just wouldn&#8217;t function. Made no kind of sense to me.<\/p>\n<p>After trying time and time again to &#8220;force&#8221; myself to get hard (doesn&#8217;t work), we ended up having &#8220;sex&#8221; one day where I was able to achieve about a 50% erection and enter her. That&#8217;s the worst time to have sex, because not only does she not feel anything, but your penis isn&#8217;t &#8220;strong&#8221;&#8230; &#8220;fortified&#8221;&#8230; and is prone to getting &#8220;overwhelmed&#8221; by the amazing, engulfing feelings of her vagina&#8230; and you usually end up ejaculating sooner.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s what happened to me with this particular girl.<\/p>\n<p>However, something interesting occurred that made me feel much better, and showed me I wasn&#8217;t alone with this.<\/p>\n<p>I visited a friend&#8217;s house, and one of his friends was there, a guy who was known in the neighborhood as a &#8220;cool guy&#8221; and had his way with girls&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Thing about this guy was he was actually cool&#8230; didn&#8217;t try, nothing phony about him. If anything, he was <em>very<\/em> honest, in a refreshing sort of way.<\/p>\n<p>And somehow the topic of sex came up, and out of nowhere he opened up about not being able to get an erection with a girl he was with&#8230; sharing all the same frustrations and negative feelings I was going through.<\/p>\n<p>Then my friend opened up&#8230; he too had experienced the problem before.<\/p>\n<p>This was pre-internet forum days&#8230; real life forum. And these guys (two high-school football players, manly tough guys) opened up about having issues getting it up before sex due to nerves.<\/p>\n<p>We all shared, and I felt so much better after this conversation&#8230; and over the years, can&#8217;t count how many times I&#8217;ve overheard guys discussing similar issues. It happens to everyone&#8230; at least at some point in their lives&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety before sex happens&#8230; so.. you just need to learn how to get past it.<\/p>\n<p>So how does all of this tie into how to get an erection when nervous? Accepting that it is normal to feel anxiety before sex actually <em>weakens\u00a0<\/em>that very same anxiety&#8217;s &#8220;choking grip&#8221; on your arousal, and allows the &#8220;highway of horniness&#8221; to open up once again between your mind and your penis.<\/p>\n<h2>Build Up Your Arousal While Keeping Your Anxiety In Check In Order to Get an Erection When Nervous<\/h2>\n<p>Admitting that you are anxious not only weakens the anxiety, but it allows you to see the anxiety clearly and work through it.<\/p>\n<p>To get an erection when nervous, you want to concentrate on becoming as mentally aroused as possible&#8230; Build up that arousal power until the anxiety no longer holds it back and your erection has no choice but to show up. Concentrate on what arouses you the most&#8230; and in layman&#8217;s terms, &#8220;get as horny as possible&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Use her&#8221;, to become aroused&#8230; believe it or not, she will like this. While you&#8217;re working on building up your arousal, she&#8217;ll be getting turned on and super wet. It&#8217;s a win-win.<\/p>\n<p>Accept the anxiety, build up the arousal, and let your erection happen on its own. It knows what to do, no need to tell it.<\/p>\n<h2>Take Your Time and Have Fun &#8211; Sex is Not A Life Or Death Situation<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/erection-problems_thumb.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-12843 size-full\" title=\"overcoming sexual performance anxiety\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/erection-problems_thumb-e1595290358863.jpg\" alt=\"overcoming sexual anxiety\" width=\"605\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/erection-problems_thumb-e1595290358863.jpg 605w, https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/erection-problems_thumb-e1595290358863-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sex is supposed to be fun, but we quite often take it too seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Either we&#8217;re new to sex and don&#8217;t want to be exposed&#8230; or it&#8217;s been a while since we&#8217;ve had sex&#8230; or we&#8217;re really trying to impress a new woman&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been in each of these situations throughout my life, so I can relate.<\/p>\n<p>And one thing I can say is, sex is not that serious&#8230; now, if you&#8217;re in a long-term relationship, and your girlfriend has never had an orgasm, that is a problem that should be taken care, but for a quickie with a new girl, there&#8217;s no need to take things so seriously. You have time to improve your technique later.<\/p>\n<p>Joke about things&#8230; laugh&#8230; have fun&#8230; then when your erection is up and at attention, and you&#8217;re already inside and going to town, then you can go into &#8220;beast mode&#8221; if you&#8217;d like&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And slooowwwww down&#8230; there&#8217;s no rush.

So remove this anxiety from your mind. And enjoy the build up of your arousal.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t take yourself or the situation too seriously&#8230; and slow down, rushing won&#8217;t help anything&#8230; and that will relieve some pressure helping you to achieve and keep erections more naturally.<\/p>\n<h2>Physically Strengthen Your Erections for More Confidence in Your Machinery &#8211; And Better Understand the Mind \/ Erection Connection<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/589704e1-69e0-4d38-b02d-13796b485a5a.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-12845 size-full\" title=\"anxiety over getting an erection\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/589704e1-69e0-4d38-b02d-13796b485a5a-e1595290460875.jpg\" alt=\"anxious about getting an erection before sex\" width=\"603\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/589704e1-69e0-4d38-b02d-13796b485a5a-e1595290460875.jpg 603w, https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/589704e1-69e0-4d38-b02d-13796b485a5a-e1595290460875-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 603px) 100vw, 603px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Performing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3275865\/\">cardio<\/a>, strengthening your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC1324914\/\">PC muscle<\/a>, and keeping your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5503426\/\">vitamin D<\/a> levels in a healthy range are all natural, yet scientifically-backed ways of improving your erection strength, regardless of age.<\/p>\n<p>Improve your erection quality so you feel more confidence in your physical abilities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/erection-strengthening-exercise.php\">For more in-depth exercises to develop physically harder, longer-lasting erections, <em>see here!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And while this is a good intro to what is needed to overcome mental blocks to achieving an erection, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mistermanpower.net\/psychological-erectile-dysfunction.php\">for more in-depth methods to get an erection when nervous, <em>see here.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Have a good one!<\/p>\n<p>-David Carreras aka Mr. Manpower<br \/>\n<strong>Mr. Manpower&#8217;s Guide to<br \/>\nOverall Manhood Enhancement<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:david@mistermanpower.net\">david@mistermanpower.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All of us get nervous before sex&#8230; men and women alike.
