Can anxiety cause erection issues and premature ejaculation?

Hello doctor,

I am a 27-year-old male. I started my first sexual relationship some months before, and I found that I had some sexual problems. In my first intercourse, I could not maintain an erection. The second time, I maintained an erection, but premature ejaculation occurred after 15 seconds of penetration. If I get an erection during intercourse, I put on a condom that time, and the penis goes normal. I was a bit scared and anxious about the situation at the time of intercourse. I did not get the sexual desire. And during my last intercourse, premature ejaculation occurred. I had lots of pain in my muscles and back, dizziness, and sleepiness for around 5 to 7 hours. When I do masturbation, I can maintain my ejaculation for about 5 to 8 minutes. Is that a problem in my body, or does it happens due to my anxiety?

Kindly help.

Thank you.

Now I have some kind of fears, I am afraid when my heartbreaking arises, I am afraid of eating different foods (fear of intoxication), I am afraid of staying alone, etc. Too many fears in my life. I cannot live like this. Can you give me any advice, please?

Which medications would help calm a person with aggressive and violent behavior?

Hello doctor,

My husband has started to behave violently suddenly. Earlier, he had a high temper, but recently for about three to four months back, he has become very aggressive and started breaking things in the house. He does not like talking to anyone, and he might end up beating anyone in front of him. He had a complaint of aggression and is on Sodium Valproate. He took Eptoin for this complaint. Please suggest me some medications which can calm him down. He is not ready to visit any doctor.
