eliminating sexual desire?

Oh All for God's Glory, you seem wise ...I want to meet you!!

If you don't want to masterbate, then pray over it. I did, and surprisingly, the desire stopped. That was most amazing, and what is more amazing, that was over a year ago.

I went for a long period of celibacy after a bad break up. Just as you.

I am a woman and I have to say I have no regrets.
I have only had sex 1 time in 2 years. That was a few weeks ago.

The last man two years ago was the man I broke the cycle with.
Kind of full circle.

For now I have no desire to fuck. I have a desire to be with my best friend and make love.

My sexual energy shifted to more of an agape type of sex. I don't know any other way to describe it.

DO NOT PUT A RUBBER BAND AROUND YOUR TESTICLES! If you got it too tight you could cause the testes to die in the scrotum and they would just be absorbed by your body over a few months. This is castration without a knife! NOT WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.

There is a drug used for the treatment of yeast infections. It's called NYSTATIN. At the therapeutic doses, it stops testosterone production. I mean it drops it to ZERO within a couple of weeks. For most men it puts them on an emotional roller coaster ride like puberty again. But it does work. It will chemically castrate you but you have the option to stop taking it and in a few weeks your testosterone levels will return to normal. BTW: you should not use this for more than about 12 weeks without stopping for at least 12 weeks. So at the most, it's 12/on 12/0ff it. You start making some testosterone with a few says of stopping the drug. The reason for 12 weeks off is to allow your testicles to return to full functionality before you go suppressing them again.

Aye, just skulking in the shadows of this thread and noticed your post. I would really love to talk to you some time, you know via email or something like that, would you mind?

When you begin to understand what sex really is, it begins to lose its power over you.

There are some very good ideas posted.
And this is a great question you are asking with this thread.

The following is what helped me understand this problem, and solve it.

I believe that sex is one of the most powerful forces on this planet, and perhaps the most powerful, and it is the force/cause needed to perpetuate each species.
Every insect, bird, animal, fish and mankind is controlled by sex.

Most of the other species mate at certain cycles and they are part of a natural process which controls, species making.

Mankind is probably the only group which uses sex most often as if it was a recreation, or some kind of sport.

I also believe that SEX is probably the most powerful ADDICTION known.
Its been the source of more violence among people than any other activity.
Maybe the root cause of most crimes is also related to sex somehow.

As soon as that "door" is opened and sex is indulged in, that powerful addiction begins to control the individuals involved.

A lot of wasted time is then spent preparing for and looking for sex. And going through the physical and mind games, when sex is the only goal in a possible relationship.

Unless its done for family making it will more often become a source of problems, even though its lure is "to experience pleasure", experiencing pain is always very close and next in line.


We find ourselves in this world, and none of us who has given this any thought believes we really belong here.
And we don't belong here, we are stuck here until we figure out what to do, and how to do it so we can leave here for good.

The smarter ones figured that out long ago and have given us information of what they used to help them find their way out of here and on our way to where we all really belong.

This world here is a trap for us, and sex is one of the most powerful ways it continues to keep us trapped here.
The manipulators have made sex and porn easily available because they know when one indulges in it their minds are addicted and captured by the manipulators.

Each of us has made an EGO for ourselves, and it is part of our mind, and that EGO is primarily connected to the body.

When one lets themselves become sexual, they are allowing their EGO to direct their "thinking". And they often do things while under the EGO's direction which they will often feel guilty about later.

If you really try to look at your mental process when thinking sexually, you will notice it is as if one was hypnotized and not capable of any real Thinking.
Try it, you will see what I mean.
And under that kind of mental process the most stupid things can be indulged in, because while in that state, one is not in their Right mind.

The other part of our mind is directed by the Holy Spirit, and He was given to us by God to be in our mind so we could have real help and guidance.
But we have to learn to tell the difference between those two parts of our mind, the part we made; the EGO, and the part God gave us; the Holy Spirit.
Check it out for yourself, we are all made the same way in this respect.

We are the DECIDERS of which part of our mind we will let advise us.

Another way I look at it is since I know that sex can be a very powerful addiction, I try to remember this thought;
Do I want to continue to let it have power over me?...or

Do I exercise my will power and with the Holy Spirit’s guidance, I then will have power over it.

I would also recommend reading and studying
Jesus’ Book, ‘A Course In Miracles’, which will help one understand the immediate Help we have available to solve all of our problems.

I don't think you can completely eliminate it, but sexual energy can be channelled into other creative endeavors.

Sexual energy = creative energy.

You can put your whole self into writing, art, music, dance etc... and this will funnel away much of that pent up energy, especially if you put your desires for sex into your art. Write a sexy story, paint or draw about sex, make sexy music, do sexy dancing. You would think that would make it worse, but it actually is a release valve.

Sexual expression can be done in many ways, without resorting to the act itself.

Sometimes it helps just to find someone that respects and encurages that you dont need sex. the urges cant really go away and there perfictly normal. i am a christan women and i know its hard. i have a purity ring i were around my neck(to small for my finger) to help remind me to be abstidant. my BF has given me one i wear with it showing his support. if we are kissing and it heats up we look at each other i look at my rings and we just change the activity like a movie or something.

Control/supression is a tool for those who lead the dark path. You don't have to eliminate/resist any feeling/desire. I hope you can see the wisdom in this.

Everything in moderation,supose you did supress sexual feelings then when that person you desire that desires you comes along then what. it would be dificult to get it up then what.

But in theory some way of getting your mind of it is a bit good it helps keep you sane.

Go fuck a bitch and bust a nut.

That should do it for a couple hours anyway.

I had that problem too, till I had a thyroid problem. Now I am hypothyroid and no desire at all. I guess I got what I prayed for.

I think there might be natural herbs out there that can suppress the libido. Look them up. Or call Young Living essential oils. They have something for everything, herbal oils to lift the sex drive, and some to suppress it.

True spiritual work transforms desire to a higher level. Sexual desire is essential to keeping us moving and giving us drive. It underlies personal power and is the reason so many politicians "can't keep it in their pants" -- they're politicians because they are into power and have a high sex drive. So, we don't want to do away with it, just transform it.

Well I am asexual but I get boners all the time the best way to deal with it is just don't do anything. Sometimes you may explode in your pants but the desire will be less and less.

Get Multiple Sclerosis. That will take care of it.

There is a hormone called oxytocin that is released after an orgasm. You can buy this as a drug and get that post-coital glow without having sex. Look it up.

..of course the best spiritual paths include sexuality. You can't denigrate a fundamental part of life without creating a twisted individual.

Look at all the twisted freaks on this site, I bet most of them are not getting enough sex...

Best of luck to yha!

That's the ticket for sure!! I think the gross spouse is the nail in the coffin. If spouse wasn't gross there would be a glimmer of hope

You're probably a woman and like all woman they like to meet a guy they are inspired by and sleep with them

Take Rogaine and Paxil

i think those decrease sexual cravings but you'll also be a walking zombie with no feelings

become extremely depressed and anxious. Whenever you feel aroused let your anxieties slip and control you and ruin the moment for you. I'm 23 year old guy and it has worked for me...

but trust me, you won't gain spiritual growth. Only agony and misery

Probably most appropriate to say that it eliminates itself...

Eat whatever you want and gain 200 pounds, you won't have any and no one will have any for you either.

go to a bath house and pack poop until you can't anymore......no more desire...................that has always been the way our elite has become spiritual
