A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

How can i kill off my sex drive, so that i no longer desire physical relations? Preferebly without resorting to drugs or surgery (though if there doesn't appear to be a way to do so without, then suggestions relating to this solution would be welcome.)

Also, if i was to not masterbate, would it work in the same way as i am told a drug addiction works, where eventually your body would realise that it doesn't need it, and therefore you lose your craving for it. Or would it just store inside me, and the urge to do it become increasingly stronger?

ok..i sympathise with you...u must really be a nice person who is frustrated with life.

try self talk -

tell yourself everyday as many times as sex enters your mind..

"I no longer think about sex. I don't have the urge for physical contact. I am a God loving person."

you can modify this to suit your requirements...but do say it many tims during the day, everyday for as long as you feel you have the drive.

say it without fail as it will feed your sub conscious mind and your physical body will respond accordingly.

best of luck.

aphrodites_pendant agony auntFirstly a question arises... What happened that made you want to do this?

If it is due to bad relationships then this is not the answer. Your sex drive is something that is inside all of us - our natural instinct. It may seem that your sex drive has been the cause of bad relationships as many people do. What they forget however is that for any relationship to work there must be some form of chemistry. By supressing your sex drive one of two things could happen:

1. chemistry is mistaken for an urge for sex and therefore drives you away from that person

2. you lose all sense of chemistry - no one wants to feel empty

My personal advice to you is this: sit down, take a deep breath and think about previous relationships. Although this maybe painful at first it may help you realise that your sex drive is not always to blame.

If after this you still wish to search for a way to control these urges then masturbation is better then any drug - these will messs with your bodies natural balance and you will find that any good doctor would not recommend them - of course there are always exceptions in which case you may need to use it but these are few amd rare.

Hope this helps.

i think, if you are really set on this, your best bet is to talk to a dr about getting some meds. people who are very overweight *sometimes* have diminished sex drives, but not always, and there are obvious health side effects with a plan that involves you gaining a lot of weight just to suppress your sex drive. it's something natural, so no, stopping masturbating won't 'kill it off'. it might help you learn to re-channel your energies a bit, but the impulse will still be there. that said, there are drugs that do this kind of thing, some intentionally, and some as an unintended side effect. (for example, anti-depressants are notorious for killing off a sex drive, particularly zoloft.) talking to a dr is probably the best bet

I don't want to ask why you want to kill off your sex drive, but I could be able to help you.

I believe there is an anti-testosterone medication which can eliminate or diminish sexual urges.

They are usually prescribed to sex offenders, so I don't know where or how you could get it normally.

Masturbation would be the only non-drastic measure to sustaining your sex drive.

Or.. there is ... Castration!
