Urge control?

I've had the same very intense, persistent urge for the last 2 weeks. I was looking to read about everyone's ways of controlling intense, persisting urges which you find difficult to find relief for. My usual methods are no longer working. Some of which are unmentionable lol, but for the most part, I go outside, listen to my playlist, call someone up, watch my favourite shows, maybe even eat something, or just simply meditate. It seems I can't get away from this one quite so easily. In all the months I've known I've had this para, I can't seem to get away from it this time. Any thoughts?

Exercise.

Hmm, actually, I've been taking that up, too, I walk every day for about a half our or so, or sometimes go for a fast jog. Problem is, on my route, ironically enough, is a freakin cemetery! Never fails... Sigh

Can't you change your route??

I recommend doing some kind of routine, vigorous exercise. Not just talking like a few sit-ups here. Do some serious, strenuous stuff. However, and quite obviously, don't harm yourself in the process. Do adequate stretching and be sure that you don't pull or injure any muscles. Watch out for animals if you live with them, they sometimes find humans working out amusing and like to circle you to make you feel pressured...

Actually, I can't change my route, there's only 1 way you can go from my place, there is a dead end if you go the other way. Nothing is there.

It sounds like there's a funny story behind that comment!

So you've got the dead on one side and a dead end on the other? Bummer.

Rigorous exercise doesn't work for me. Being cold (e.g. cold shower) or going to the toilet (sorry if that's too much information) usually helps.

Is there a particular activity that you consider unsexy? Maybe doing the ironing, cleaning-out the fridge etc. You could designate that as your 'anti-libido' activity. And when you do it, try to make a rule that no sexual thoughts are allowed. Eventually you may find that you stop thinking about sex whenever you do the activity without even having to try.

Hahahahahaha, yep, it sure does. You guys are awesome:P, thanks so much for the laughs!

Yeah, guess i'm stuck either way, I've got the dead no matter where I go hehee, just my luck, no?

Animals lol my cat actually used to stand there and watch me work out lol, what the heck was he trying to prove! At least I can actually exercise! He just eats sleeps purrs and goes to the catbox! jeesh! lmao
