Lowering Sex Drive

[Sil]

First things first - a little sexual release is healthy; studies have shown (will supply evidence) that masterbation/ejaculation at least once a week is supportive in reducing prostate cancer... this is not a coldcut rule, only that it is similar to a form of excercise for your body, keeping it in check and 'serviced'. If you're talking about health, total abstinence is not the way to go.

Reducing your sex drive is an impossible task, as some have mentioned here. Changing your reaction to your impulses however is entirely possible. Fenris mentioned meditative techniques, you can make associations with negative memories when tempted and press a part of your body to remind you of these feelings (although forming negative associations with sex can be a downward spiral).

I would suggest a period of abstinence until you really feel ready again, it sounds like you have some issues currently that physicality is just not helping. You may need some mental stimulation outside of your own personal feelings, and I would advise expanding your mind both as distraction and as a mental break from the constant idea of sex.

Hope this helps, vague as it sounds.
