metoprolol and performance anxiety

You are loosing your erection because you are watching yourself -- performance anxiety. The way to overcome this is to take intercourse off the menu for a while. But to do this your will need to have a regular partner.

Beta-blockers affect the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins). Metoprolol is used to treat angina (chest pain) and hypertension (high blood pressure). It is also used to treat or prevent heart attack. It seems to me if you have high blood pressure the medication should be taken regularily and not as needed. I don't know the effect it has on chest pain.

It is probably safe for you to take Cialis. However, your erectile dysfunction is more likely related to performance anxiety since this is the commonest cause of ED in young men. Cialis may give you back your confidence.

I am 18 and suffer from performance anxiety, i cant maintain an erection when im with my girlfriend. We've tried many times it just doesnt work cause im nervious. is there any cure or way to maintain an erection for sure? would a penile pump work?

I can relate to your performance anxiety myself. I think it is more about the feeling of being judged and the thoughts of those in the audience then it is about your capability. I would not try anyones medicine with or without a performance. Performance is more about your self esteem and belief in your talents then any medicine you can put in your body. Capability and Self Esteem are also 2 different animals when dealing with anxiety.

I have been suffering from some pretty bad performance anxiety. I am dating a girl that I really love and when we first attempted sex, I had a problem getting it up. Ever since then, I have been caught in the terrible cycle where I only think about getting an erection, thus causing me to lose my erection. Medically I am fine. Always erect on my own, as well as with her for foreplay or oral. The only problem is with intercourse - right before condom goes on or insertion I panic and lose it.

t have high blood pressure, just tachycardia and the metoprolol really helps keep that in check. Should I just stay on metoprolol and try the cialis and see how it works or should I try the cardizem?

You can look on drug info sites and see that anxiety is an infrequent side effect of metoprolol and other BBs. Same with weight gain, and even a reference to increasing any pre-existing depression. When you have rare side effects, it can be difficult to convince anybody that the effect is real and does come from the drug. I'd identify what web sites he would consider to be as authoritative sources, then print web pages from those sources that list your symptoms as rare side effects.

t like to take pills at all but I am at the point I have to take something for this anxiety because I am barely functioning! I have health anxiety and the PVC's don't help. When I take the Metoprolol it does slow my heart rate so I am afraid if I take the Xanax it's going to slow it even more (heart rate is between 63-75 with med). Please answer as soon as you are able-THANKS.

Now my question, is this the medication, or indeed performance anxiety or just anxiety and stress? I also have been stressing and obsessing about post ssri sexual dysfunction. Im obsessing too much and its out of control I cant relax. Im seeing a new doc to get a different opinion and also scheduled a sex therapist appt. What medications other than Luvox or Celexa could I use for anxiety and ocd? I feel Luvox aint working neither was Celexa. My problem is I cant relax and Im always worrying.

I suffer from CD and anxiety. I've been on meds in the past for both the CD and the anxiety. I haven't been taking anything recently for either. I also suffer from GERD and other GI issues as well as stress related PVC's and the occasional "flutter". I went to the doctor yesterday because I could not sleep Sunday night.

You need to step back and relax... the more you think about your "problem" which isn't really a problem anywhere else other than in your head, the more erectile difficulties you'll have. Thinking about your problems sometimes just makes them worst... sit back and they begin to lighten up until you understand them better. Also, you just have sexual performance anxiety...

I am in search of long-term self-help for the following issue: I am prone to occasional bouts of sexual performance anxiety. Usually, it occurs when I'm with someone I really care about for the first time. My mind gets pre-occupied with wanting to be good for her and to give her total satisfaction. Of course, these thoughts start to weigh heavily, and it affects my ability to get an erection.

I'm a 20 year old male and I've been suffering with performance anxiety for as long as I can remember.Last year I saw a doctor about this and she examined and took blood for me and told me I was healthy and doesn't see anything wrong with me.I'm in a really good relationship right now and we attempted sex quite a few times and it just ends bad.I'm hard when my clothes are on but when I take them off I lose it right before I penetrate.

I am 30 years old. Just married. I used to have sex with my wife before marriage and I used to get full erection and stimulation. I also had good sexual desire. After marriage on honeymoon, I had full erection dad penetrative sex without problems. However after a week of marriage, I had stress due to some reason. On that night I could not perform. I failed to get fully hard. After that night I just lost my confidence.

Good advice from GR. Also, since you have spontaneous morning elections & no prblm getting hard otherwise, you can be assured you do not have a physical prblm. This sounds like ‘performance anxiety’ which is pretty common & has happened to a lot of us. The wurst thing we can do when this happens is to obsess about it - then, the more we think about it & worry that it’s gonna happen again, the more likely it will!

After clinical check and running tests the doctor confirmed that my sex drive is healthy and functioning and that my problem is purely psychological. Performance medications help sometimes help (sildenafil, tadalafil, vardelafil, .. ). But in other times they just don't have any effect. I have been told that as long as I have performance anxiety, all the viagra in the world will not help. To over come the problem, my doctor prescribed me Trazodone Hydrochloride 100mg every night.

Hi, I'm a 24 year old male. I've been having sharp, cramp type pains around the left side of my chest. I get them in my upper back, neck and face sometimes as well. I've had multiple panic attacks in which i get strong heart palpitations. My blood pressure its typically a bit high. Heart rate is normally low, I exercise frequently and eat healthy. I weight 190 pounds and am 6 ft tall.

I'm 33 years old and prescibed Metoprolol for my heart palpitations, which happens everytime I eat food. After all cardiac tests came back normal, she mentioned that it may be stress related. I'm now being prescribed 20 mg Celexa for aniexty. I only take 6.25 mg of Metoprolol, cutting it into quarters, but are scared to take the two in combination. There are so many warnings about not mixing them. My heart rate has slowed down with the Celexa, but I still get the pounding sensation.

Thank you SO much Teak. So as long as there was a control line then it got an adequate sample and I don't need to worry about the saliva? Thank you, truly, for dealing with my anxiety-driven questions. I know I'm being irritating and I just wanted to say I really appreciate what you all are doing for people here. You've helped me so much and I know others feel the same.
