One\nthing that suffers when you’re dealing with anxiety is your confidence. If\nyou’re feeling anxious about your sexual performance, it can make meeting\nsomeone new a daunting challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even\ngeneralized anxiety disorder, a condition wherein almost everything can make\nyou feel worried, tense, and nervous, can have a huge negative impact on your\nconfidence. And when you’re not feeling confident about yourself, you’re less\nlikely to feel and come across as sexy, thus also impacting how you relate with\nothers on an intimate level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s\neven more frustrating is that certain antidepressants that are also commonly\nused to treat anxiety disorders can further reduce your sex drive. This usually\nhappens when you’re taking SNRIs and SSRIs, the most common classes of\nmedicines that are used for depression and anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This\ndoesn’t mean, though, that you shouldn’t take those medicines or that you’ll\nlose your sex drive completely if you’re on antidepressants. Of course, the\neffects of the medications are different for everyone, and your libido may not\nbe affected as much as what other people suffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This\nsimply means that if you’re overwhelmed with anxious feelings, there may be no\nmore room for sexy thoughts in your brain. And that can be frustrating not only\nfor you but also for your partner.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside\nfrom all the anxious thoughts that fill your mind, anxiety can also make you\nworry and panic, which also have physical effects on your body. You start\nproducing more adrenaline, which makes you feel tensed and on edge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This\nmeans you probably won’t feel any sexual enjoyment since you can’t fully relax,\nand because such tension can prevent you from enjoying sexual sensations. It\ncan even hinder you from reaching an orgasm or having a fully satisfying\norgasmic experience. In fact, anxiety is also considered one of the causes of\ndelayed or inhibited ejaculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
