Message: <blockquote data-quote="Spiker" data-source="post: 520706" data-attributes="member: 102150">I would say that if Viagra didn't work that it is likely not a physical problem, which is good news. Viagra's motto should be, "where there's a will, there's a way". It translates desire into action but it does not work if your desire is inhibited. It's difficult with a new girlfriend. If it was an existing girlfriend there are relaxation exercises you can do together that I'm sure would help. Does your hospital diabetes clinic have a MARS unit? They will have a whole spectrum of support for ED. I would see them. You are young and have good HBa1c. I really don't think it's likely you have a physiological problem. I've had T1 twice as long as you, my control has often been ****, and I've never experienced any diabetic related problems down there. I really think it's just anxiety. I think you are going to be fine. It's often when a girlfriend is really important to us that we can get the most nervous. If you already intimate with your girlfriend and she is supportive, you can do touch exercises with her. The idea is to have no goals and no objectives - no need for orgasm,  erection or intercourse - just touch and see what feels nice and go with it, take all the time in the world to do nothing in particular.
