    Re: EMDR AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION/PRE MATURE EJACULATION?

    Dear Eric,
    I would check with your doctor to be sure there are no physical problems. Assuming there are not, EMDR can be very helpful with premature ejaculation. Premature Ejaculation is often a form of performance anxiety. This anxiety may be based on previous disturbing memories around one's sexuality, often including previous instances of premature ejaculation. EMDR would probably focus both on the previous disturbing memories as well as the current triggers. I would recommend that you consult with someone familiar with both EMDR and issues of sexuality.

    Good luck
