I recently had a bit of a stressful situation with someone which led to me losing my erection with her. The situation was rectified but I became anxious about this repeating again. It didn't for a few weeks but recently my stress levels were high again and I was unable to perform again. Ever since that I become very anxious about the prospect of it happening which means in turn it has happened again. I'm 23, I am very fit. I've recently quit smoking and only drink once a week/fortnight so I don't think it's an actual physical issue but am unsure of how to fix it.

Relax dear Lybrate user. Your present situation is only transitory. Actually you're in a psychological condition called 'anticipatory anxiety' which will automatically vanish in course of time. All you have to do is to distract yourself from having sex at least for a month by concentrating other things in life. Better not testing the erection levels by any means. If you keep on thinking and testing the efficacy, it will certainly lead to bad consequences. More guidance, if you need, please call me.
