You're 18. You worry about that too damn much!
Maybe, but it's definitely something to keep tabs on, especially now that I'm trying to act a little more professionally.
You're 18. RELAX!
Workin' on it, honest!
You know, your physical fitness level plays into your sex drive. Not saying get fat, just that being physically fit tends to be a factor in sexual activity. You mentioned that stress played alot into you lack of drive. Well look at what it was that made you stressed. Could good stress cause you to do the same thing? Could you be too busy for sex? Or maybe, that's how you unwind because you only see your girlfriend once a week.
-fitness level stays! And it definitely is a factor, that's true.
-Well, the stress was a combination of fear, exhaustion, paranoia, and the BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU kind of thing (I had to leave the military for a good reason  )-- in other words, I'm not gonna replicate that...
-It's really more of a "HEY GUESS WHAT TIME IT IS!?" kind of thing, so it's really not much of an unwinding thing so much as uh... forced maintenence  ...
One other suggestion I could give is just have at it. Go and run in the field, young colt. Maybe that will get it out of your system. You're only young once.
-Well, like I said, I embrace it... just not to the current extent.
Well, because I'm pretty sure I'm starting to sound like one of those people that just talks, hears, tells why something wouldn't work and then come back and complain again with nothing to add and no feedback on advice, the good news is that I've taken some measures to help:
#1- reasonable time restrictions when it matters
#2- fappin' it old school instead a little more often (to make me relatively less desensitized to porn)
#3- I started doing le parkour with people sometimes, and for some reason that's helped, maybe the lack of feeling of public isolation?

It's still there, in the same place it's been sitting for years. 
Significant name change =/= "same place", maybe that's just me and my crazy logic. Because "Femine's Corner
A place for the female members, mostly about femine things or occasinally relationships and advice."
Doesn't seem to hold the same description as the former anya and elmo's corner, and I therefore assumed that that was an entirely different board, for vimminz only.
As for the guilt or insecurity, I don't see why I shouldn't be frustrated at being controlled like that. It's not so much what specifically distracts me from things I put on a higher regard, it's the fact that is does it in the first place, and that significantly/often. I embrace my sex drive and all, but not to this level. I actually think this generation is a little TOO embrasive of sex. discipline in many regards seems to be much less in value than "being true to yourself". I find that to be rather ridiculous as it takes much more effort and inner strength to overcome your inhibitions than to "embrace who you truely are".
Anyway, I'm going to have to figure out or try something else, because the monk's pepper thing was only very mildly effective, or psychosematic like I'd thought. Tasted really gross if I burped, too . |

Just fap the 4-5 times a day and don't worry about it. That's not so bad. My friends and I talked about it once and that's definately not the highest I've heard. It sounds to me more like you're having a guilt issue or insecurity about it. |

I dont have any particular suggestions, other than to tell you that in time the problem will solve itself if you dont solve it sooner. Your sex drive will decrease with age. I was never at the 4-5 times a day point, but i did want it pretty frequently when i was a teenager, now in my 20's i still want it alot, but probably about 1/2 what i used to want. |

18, but 4-5 or more times a day isn't typical  (I've got a full time job, too).

you could like... cut or burn your hand(s) just enough so that the ol' faparoo is kind of painful to do. Of course you'd have to do it on a regular basis. Just thought I'd toss that out there. If you're really crazy you could do some damage to your member... heheh. Okay maybe this is a bad idea but I thought it was amusing.
O_o, the point was to be more productive, but uh, thanks for the advice..?
Anyway, update number 2:
I only take the monk's pepper when I think it's becoming an issue (I'm not trying to deprive myself here, that's just unhealthy on both a physical and mental level), and it seems to still be working just fine. |

I've actually never found any conclusive evidence as to the use of that. But interesting that you said potatoes, because I had noticed that starchy foods were the ones that seemed to have the greatest effects.
Edit: I was doing some research, and came across this stuff called "chaste berry", also known as monk's pepper. Seemed like a safe possibility, so I'll give that a try and let you guys know how it goes =P.
Edit2: I tried the Monk's pepper, and so far it seems to be good in reducing the uh... issue to more manageable levels. Could be psychosomatic, but we'll see as time goes. |

You're not alone when it comes to sex drive. Sex occupies my mind almost 24/7, and yes, it does get on my nerves sometimes.
Of course, I'm 16. That explains a lot  |

Once a day or so is actually supposed to be healthy though.
