00:00Struggling to feel that spark, or know someone who is?

00:03What if I told you that arousal disorders affect thousands, yet most people don't even

00:08know what they are?

00:09I'm Amanda Pachucco, your go-to sex therapist and private practice owner.

00:14Here to break it down for the incredible community we have of over 117,000 subscribers.

00:20Today we're diving into what an arousal disorder really is, why it happens, and most importantly,

00:27what you can do about it.

00:28Stick around, because this could change how you see intimacy forever.

00:32First up, let's define what we're even talking about, because clarity is power.

00:37Alright, so what's an arousal disorder?

00:39In simple terms, it's when your body or mind, or both, don't respond to the sexual stimulation

00:46the way you'd expect or you'd want.

00:48For some, it's trouble getting physically aroused, like lubrication or erection issues.

00:54For others, it's a mental block.

00:56The desire's there, but the excitement or arousal just won't kick in.

01:01It's not really about not being in the mood once in a while, it's a persistent challenge

01:07that can leave you all feeling frustrated or disconnected.

01:10And here's the thing, it's way more common than you think.

01:14Hitting men and women of all orientations across the USA and the world every single day.

01:21Hormones, stress, past trauma, or even medication could be at play.

01:26The big takeaway?

01:27It's not your fault, and you're not alone.

01:29Now that we know what an arousal disorder is, let's unpack why it might be happening

01:34to you or someone you care about.

01:36So why does this happen?

01:38Think of arousal as a dance between your brain, body, and emotions.

01:42When one partner is out of step, the whole routine falters.

01:46Stress is a huge culprit.

01:47Cortisol can literally shut down your libido.

01:49Then there's the physical stuff, low testosterone, menopause, or even side effects from medications

01:56like SSRIs, antidepressants, past experiences like shame or trauma can wire your brain to

02:03hit the brakes.

02:05Sometimes it's relationship dynamic, where communication's gone awry.

02:10And the spark?

02:11It's just lost.

02:12The good news?

02:14Pinpointing the why is the first step to fixing it, and I've got tips coming up to help

02:18you do just that.

02:20Knowing the cause is half the battle.

02:22Let's shift gears to some real actionable ways to tackle this.

02:26Here's where it gets exciting.

02:28Tips to take control.

02:29First, do a body check.

02:32Check in with your body and go to a doctor to rule out hormonal imbalances or discuss medication

02:38side effects.

02:39Game changer.

02:40Two, talk it out.

02:42Whether it's with a partner or a therapist like me, opening up reduces shame and it builds

02:47connection.

02:48Three, experiment mindfully and curiously.

02:51Try new routines, solo or with someone else, sensual touch or even breath work.

02:57Wake up those pathways.

02:59Small steps equal big wins.
