Sex anxiety can show up in lots of ways:

  • Do you tend to get nervous leading up to a date, hookup or sex with a partner?

  • Do you find yourself avoiding dating, relationships or sex?

  • Does your anxiety impact sexual functioning like erections or tensing of pelvic muscles?

  • Do you experience pain during sex?

  • Do you experience shame or embarrassment during or after sex?

  • Do you worry your partner or partners are judging you based on your sexual performance?

  • Do you “zone out” or dissociate during sex?

  • Are you finding it easier to hook up than to have long term relationships?
