Hello

Postby Blueboi898 » Wed Mar 18, 2026 12:37 pm

My name is George Rodgers, this s my first time posting on this site. I'm 65 years old and I live in London.

I'm in the middle having counselling and one of the subjects I bought up was the problems I was having with ED.
I must admit I felt very uncomfortable talking about it at first but when I saw the the enthusiasm on my therapist face as I started talking about ED the response I got , the therapist had always wanted someone to talk about how ED affected them but her patients felt uncomfortable talking about it. I did feel uncomfortable at first but the more I talked about it the more I opened up and it's inspired me to want to set up some kind of support group here in the UK.
Lauren (that's the name of my therapist) gave me the link to Frank Talk and reading how Paul set up Frank Talk and the reason behind it is why I'm setting something similar here in the UK. I've asked Paul if I can call the group Frank Talk UK and he has said it's okay.

I don't have any medical knowledge and I'm not a doctor but I do have experience of living with ED.
I have approach a couple of health services and male support groups here in the UK about setting up some kind of on line support group and the response has been positive.
I'll keep everyone up to date on how things are processing and if any you guys have any suggestions what you want from the support group like a Zoom meeting once a month let me know.
