For unclear reasons, my SO has developed severe ED. There are almost no resources out there that I’ve been able to find for partners who are also being affected. I didn’t know this was such a prevalent issue among younger men and now don’t know what to do to be a supportive partner. Most of the articles I’ve found just tell the partner not to pressure for sex and not to act disappointed. Which it is difficult not to be/act disappointed after such an extended dry spell. My SO has been to the doctor and had tests run, basically been told there is nothing physically wrong. So that leaves that he either isn’t into to me anymore (which he denies) or that he has built up some kind of mental block around sex. My questions are: what can I do to support him and also would ED meds even work if this is related to anxiety or a psychological issue? Has anyone had a similar situation, what helped and what was not helpful?
