about the sex thing
from the big book,1st edition
chapter 9 the family afterward,p 139
A word about sex relations. Alcohol is so sexually stimulating to some men that they have over-indulged. Couples are occasionally dismayed to find that when drinking is stopped the man tends to be impotent. Unless the reason is understood, there may be an emotional upset. Some of us had this experience, only to enjoy, in a few months, a finer intimacy than ever. There should be no hesitancy in consulting a doctor or psychologist if the condition persists. We do not know of many cases where this difficulty lasted long.
men usually do not like to speak of this,especially in meetings or in public,but some family's do go thru it.Don`t know if it is temporary or permanent
