Hi Juhl. Are you asking because a person you're in a relationship says hes stressed out as a means to escape intimate relations?\nHe probably just needs some 'space' either physically or emotionally'. \nSome guys cannot perform if their mind is elsewhere. Talk to him about what is stressing him out and be patient. Think about him, your time will come.

I have never heard of this happening, in fact, quite the opposite. Mine wants it even more if he's all stressed out.

You say your therapist told you (past tense) and you had sessions with the psychologist (past tense.)\n\nThis issue requires the present tense attention of a therapist and/or psychiatrist. It is encroaching on your ability to manage your normally daily life. You are embarrassed in public in a moderately stressful situation, but not one for which embarrassment is appropriate. You are not holding down a job because of this.\n\nGet there, go back and get your help. You deserve to overcome this and live a normal healthy life!\n\nBeing observed while performing a task is stress-inducing and when you can perform under those circumstances, it will be quite and achievement. You will be challenged and you will meet the challenge and overcome!

There are many different ways to decrease stress in your life.  However, there are also different types of stress.  For example if your stress is from trauma or some other sort of seriously stressful experience, then my suggestions will not be sufficient and your stress may require some short-term therapy (often known as PTST - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).  If your stress is the normal everyday stress that we all put up with (job stress, kids, responsibilities, financial, muscle tension, traffic, etc.) then I offer the following suggestions.\n\nMany men prefer to destress through activities such as playing group sports, hanging out with their pals or working out at a gym. Women can also find ways of relaxing by participating in activities or hobbies they enjoy.  Additionally, practicing relaxation to relieve muscle tension is extremely effective and can be practiced quickly and easily if sufficiently learned. Practice by tensing your fists for 5 seconds, then release the tension completely. Say to yourself, "relax". Notice that your hand is now MORE relaxed than before the tension. Practice this method moving all throughout the body.  This is called Progressive Muscle Relaxation and I'm sure you can find a full script somewhere on the web. Other forms of relaxation may include yoga or other exercise, meditation, visualization, prayer or other spiritual practice or communion, talking to a friend or loved one, seeking profession help through therapy or medication, and so on.  If you find that your stress is a little more permanent that just every day experiences, then you may consider relocating to a city with a slower pace or changing to a job that will be less stressful.  Examine your life and see where your stress is coming from and then slowly you can find creative ways of eliminating or decreasing the stress as a whole. Good Luck and don't forget the powerful connection of Mind and Body!!

It's hard to fight stress while you are in the stressful situation. At home I read, clean and do artwork. Try hiding in teh Br for a few minutes or just plain tuning out.

Maybe when you are stressed out, you tend to yell quite a bit, and resolves in to losing your voice. You should definatly see your doctor, and talk to him about what happens......

Is he under pressures lately? Stress can make guys not being able to do so. As for keeping it, are you meaning that he can't stay like this for long or he come too fast? If it's the first one, ask a doctor. Second, get more practices. :P

Nothing may be wrong.  Guys can be insecure and this can be manifested in withdrawal (sadly, I've done it).

Yes.  An occupied mind is less lightly to get upset and want to start problems and plan for an escape.

I know that stress in life can be unavoidable at times. Why, any change in ones situation is considered a source of stress. Exam your life and your current obligations. Determine if there are some things that you are currently doing that you can stop or delegate to others. \n\nTry to schedule in some daily "me" time when you can just do something that you find totally relaxing, even if just for 15 minutes. Think about things that you like to do, that makes your happy, or that you find relaxing. Have a mini daily retreat where you can refocus, replenish, and rejuvenate your soul.
