Paraphimosis causing ED... how the hell do I get over this

When I was younger and started having sex, after one particular sexual encounter (with my girlfriend) I came out with a case of Paraphimosis. And ever since then, sex, or at least the consistent erection part has been *hard for me. That instance of physical trauma has created an almost protective barrier for my penis that has become completely involuntary and for which I have no control over. With each partner is different. Sometimes the first time I'm successful, and others, it takes a lot longer.

However, that was quite awhile ago, and I'm 29 now and with my new current girlfriend the problem still exists. And not only that, my erections in general are weaker (substantially) and even less reliable. I am a vegan, but I don't think my diet is the *constricting variable within the problem. I know it's mostly psychological, but this latter part, the waning in my overall ability, at what I consider a still pretty young age, is even more disconcerting. And I know the 'worry' is just kindling to the *waning fire.  

Anyways, wondering if anyone has had any success with hypnosis or other possible psychological remedies. I would like to stay away from pills just based on simple principles (but if need be, I'm desperate enough to board that train). Because this quagmire horrible on my psyche. Don't get me wrong, I love to give, and I love the process that is the sexual process, but at this point I'm losing starting to lose a lot of my male self-worth.

It's not a conscious fear or even a voluntary fear. It's almost an involuntary reaction to any feeling of discomfort after the Paraphimosis. It's almost a protective measure that my body takes. After a few months, or even a few tries, once my body gets comfortable with a partner, then I'm cool.

But now, the lack of strength or lack of vigor is a totally new thing and has me worried. Thanks for the 'L-arginine' recommendation. I have never heard of it. What exactly is it? A Testosterone supplement?

Are you saying you are inhibited by a fear it will happen again?  What about after a couple of drinks?  Can you relax then, just until you get your mojo back?  Or does that also cause problems of its own?  

You could try taking L-arginine just to rev things up.  Also take up running to rev up your testosterone.
