Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern.
The reason for your inadequately sustained erection is your anxiety. You need to relax. Eat wholesome food, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, practice stress relieving measures like yoga, meditation or relaxation techniques. These would help you.
If the result from these is insufficient, you can take professional help by way of psychotherapy or medicines.
