Changing Rooms

[Noody]

Hi guys,

I have a bit of a problem at the moment, it's mainly mental, but slightly physical too.

For the last 5/6 years of my life I have been really self-conscious with my body, when I was in Grade 7 (11/12 Years old) I wouldn't even show my legs anywhere because I was the only person in my year with leg hair.

Over the last few years, I have grown a lot more confident with how I look etc. I have to say I'm not really the most... thin... person you've ever seen, I have a bit of belly fat, but working on getting rid of it and losing weight. Nevertheless, I am still relatively confident with the way my body looks.

There's only one main 'problem' for me now, it's not urgent, but I would like to conquer it over the next few months. My problem is that whenever I am getting changed in the changing rooms in any less clothes than my underwear, I get an erection really easily. For example, I'll be in the changing rooms getting changed, I'll take off my shirt, fine. I'll take off my trousers, fine. As I take off my underwear, erection occurs. I need to take a shower after my sport as it involves seawater which cannot remain on your body throughout the rest of the day as it gets itchy and isn't great for my skin.

Once I get the erection, I cannot have a shower due to a few reasons, but I really cannot be seen in the shower with an erection. On my own at home, I am absolutely fine, I don't get an erection at all. When I'm in a public area though, completely different story. It drives me mental and actually really affects me (probably more than it should).

Do any of you have experience of this, and/or do you have any advice for overcoming this problem of mine?

If you want any additional information, feel free to ask in the posts below.

Thanks in advance,

Noody.

Sometimes you just have to do it. So what if they try to make fun of you. their's isnt that different from yours. If they point it out ask "why you looking?" what I try to do is face the lockers and absent my mind, like think of something else.
try wearing swimming trunks into the showers to get washed. to change into them go into the bathroom stalls. hope this helped. contact me if you need anything else.

It's not so much the fact that people will make fun of me actually, sorry if I didn't make it clear in my original message, but it's simply inappropriate (and embarrassing) for me to have an erection in the changing room due to the wide age range of people in there. (Yeah, kids, old guys etc. along with my friends who are my age who I would be ridiculously embarrassed to get an erection in front of, but the guys my age aren't so much of a problem :P )

But you do make a good point, I can wear clothes for the mean time in the shower, but I would like to be able to shower nude without getting an erection in the next month or two.

If you have any more advice, it would be really nice to hear.

Thanks a lot,

Noody.

its probably because you are nervous mate, used to hppen to me, but im alright now

[Noody]

It might be because I'm nervous. It's a big moment in my day actually, to get naked in public. Maybe I just need to get used to the fact that nudity isn't related to sex, and that when I do get naked, I don't consciously think 'SEX'. Hmm, food for thought..

Any other replied would be more than welcome, please! :)

Tack, Noody.

This happens to me too... I feel that the more you're naked in a change room or other places (where it's legal obviously), it will become more routine and you will get less and less erections

[Noody]

Thanks for the advice Zanman, I think it may simply come with becoming used to nudity. Admittedly it will be hard, but it might work. I'll start giving it a go.

If anyone else has any advice, please post it! :)

Yeah you get used to it so i wouldn't worry 'appropriate' cause by the 2nd-3rd time it should stop. But also, try think of math problems or some ugly old teacher, things that are not erotic at all. Or start conversation. Even being gay, i havent had this problem in awhile just by distractions and like you say its not really sexual anyway.

[Noody]

I'm going to try to get naked in the changing rooms (not in school) when I have the chance. Hopefully I will, over time build up some sort of immunity to feeling sexual tension when I get naked. Not really sure how to continue but oh well.

If anyone has any more advice, please post it as this is a big problem for me in the changing rooms.

Tack, Noody.

The best advice I could give you is just don't worry too much. As far as I know most guys don't care if other guys have got a boner in the changing room, because it's a normal thing that would happen to every healthy guy. If you're hung you can even show off a bit haha

I am 13 and everybody has to shower after gymn, Naked is no big deal. I have never seen anyone hard. But I guess it could happen.

If your really that concerned, try thinking of stuff that could help to turn you off like something dead.

[dakota1998]

I am 14 and this happened to me and hy gym teacher noticed that I was not showering so he talked to me in private and told me to go to loo and take underware off and masturbate and then come out and it worked. Now 6 months later I am normal and I am proud of myself and my growing friend LOL

i didn't see this till now. the only way i can think of to overcome it is to just walk in there naked and take a shower and ignore your erection. like you said it will probably build up an immunity. but it's easy to understand if you can't bring yourself to do that. there's one kid in my locker row who i think has an erection every single day and it's no one cares or notices at all like what else is new yawn.

Oh my gosh the same thing happens to me. I HATE having to get naked , go shirtless or even change infront of other people. I normally try to find a stall to change and if I have to take a shower ( my school at least had the decency to put curtain stalls for those whom are shy ( me ) so Id use those but other dudes would open it up and laugh joke around a because of my body ( I am 5'4 and 1 hald , Im 89 pounds & no muscle so I have no protection in there and stuff like that. Either way I am still getting over being subconsious about my body but if you think about it : All guys have what you got.

Hey man, I wanna help but I have a few questions. Is there anybody you feel you can talk to oo just be around? If there is you could possibly just talk to them in the changing rooms. I am sure you will get over this as you age. This reaction is normal, I still get an erection sometimes in the locker room. I helped my lil bro get over some of the anxiety. Also try changing with a group of friends. The point I am trying to make is a distraction should helped you take your mind off the erection should you have one

Starting out with wearing a towel wrapped around your waist elps and then slowly as you get more comfortable go from uniform to using the showers and finally chat and walk around nude, It's a progression that can take as long as u need it too. Good luck!

[LunarScorpio]

I would wear clothes for now, and as you get older, and your hormones settle it should stop.

If you want any further help, just send me a message, I am happy to try and help

[Upse]

This happens to me just don't think about it and don't really touch ur dick and don't think "oh I'm going to get a boner" cuz I do that just take off all ur clothing and just take a shower

[Noody]

Thanks to all of you who have helped me so far, I really appreciate it! Sorry I haven't replied earlier, been away the last few days :)

It's great to hear from y'all that I am not the only one with this problem. Some great advice offered from a lot of you too!

I have started building an immunity to getting an erection as soon as I get undressed by simply being naked in the changing rooms, it was on my own of course but i am working on getting undressed more in front of my friends and whoever else is in the changing rooms.

Thanks so much for all your advice, once again, if you have any more advice, feel free to reply!

Ciao, Noody
