How can we see ourselves whole when we are broken

by lamsa, Jun 21, 2008 05:06AM
My penis is very small and I have suffered 'dignity abuse' all my days.  I fear public showers because I am openly mocked and laughed at.   I am now 43 and my penis is withered.  I am smaller than I was by 40%.   I can no longer get an erection. Which specialist should I seek?

How can a man see himself  in a positive light.  Is it wrong to want to be naked and have dignity.  
Why does the penis have such an impact on a mans heart and self image?

Go to see your general physician for a check-up and mention your problems to him or her.  When you make the appointment, just say you want to have a check-up, or that you want to discuss nature problems with the doctor.  Each one of us is born with certain mental and physical attributes as nature intended.  We must work with what we are given, keep moving forward, and tackle problems as they arise.  Your doctor will have solutions, and he may need to conduct some tests to get at the cause of your problem.  You are not alone.  When you read the many posts on this forum, you realize that there are many with your problems or worse.  Perhaps a penis pump would help in your case.  Try to avoid those public showers where there are tactless girly-men that would make fun of you.  A real man does not have to make fun of someone else to make himself feel superior.  Yes, the sex organ has a way of getting too much attention, as it is but a small part of a man's body, important as it is.  You should see about any medical problems, and then go from there.
