Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

Presence of morning erection undoubtedly speaks about your sexual potency and it indicates that organically there is no problem with erection.

It also indicates that you are getting problem due to due to performance anxiety resulting from fear of failure.
It is natural because all blood is drawn to your anxiety centers leading to less blood available for your penis.
I am sure that once you stop thinking that there is problem you will feel much better.
Every day erection in the morning indicates that you do not have any inherent problem as it occurs at the time when your mind is not worrying.

If it does not help you see a psychiatrist for counseling and better understanding of the problem.
Thanks and regards
