Watch your fat intake. Carefully watch your diet and your saturated fat intake. Diets low in LDL saturated fat can positively affect libido and testosterone production. Get some blood tests to see where your cholesterol is at, and make some substitutions if need be. However, don’t go overdosing on fatty food as these can cause harm to your arteries and contribute to long-term damage for your heart. [5]

Try meditation. If you find yourself distracted by sexual thoughts, meditation is one way to refocus your attention. Meditation can help improve concentration, emotional regulation, and positive emotions. Plus, you don’t have to be an expert meditator to get these benefits; just starting a meditation practice can help. Small steps matter. [10]

Practice mindfulness. Mindfulness is a way to tune into your own bodily sensations. While you might turn off your mind for meditation, you want to focus it in mindfulness. If you’re focused mostly on your sexual organs, perform a body scan and attend to each area of your body, from head to toe. Focus on your senses instead of your thoughts or sexual feelings. [11]

Speak with a therapist. If feelings of shame, guilt, fear, anxiety, or other troubling emotions are tied to your high sex drive, you might benefit from therapy. A therapist can help you sort through your emotions and explore them in a meaningful way. They can help support you to express and experience healthy sexuality. Your therapist can help you create safe and healthy boundaries around sex. While talking to a therapist might feel uncomfortable at first, it can be helpful to work through any difficult or lingering emotions that may affect your sexual expression. [13]

You can find a therapist by calling your insurance provider or local mental health clinic. Speak to your physician or family and friends for a recommendation.
Sometimes people with heightened or lowered sex drive have issues to sort out around sexuality in their own family, and/or unresolved sexual abuse.

Dealing with an unwanted sex drive can be difficult and lead to uncomfortable feelings and situations. If you’re looking for ways to escape urges in the moment, look to distraction and mindfulness. You can also use relaxation as a way to cope with stress instead of letting stresses build up. If you are a man with a high sex drive, then you can look into herbs or prescription medications as a way to lower testosterone and make some balanced lifestyle changes.
The content of this article is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, examination, diagnosis, or treatment. You should always contact your doctor or other qualified healthcare professional before starting, changing, or stopping any kind of health treatment.
To lower your sex drive, take herbal supplements known to reduce testosterone, like Chaste Tree Berry, licorice, or red reishi. Make sure to talk to your doctor before adding any supplements to your diet so you can do it safely. When you feel the urge to have sex, distract yourself by going for a walk or playing a game, anything that will put your attention on something else. Consider getting your body moving through a vigorous exercise like kickboxing or weight-lifting. However, exercise can increase testosterone production, so be careful not to work out too much. For a less intense physical distraction, learn relaxation techniques like yoga or tai chi, which can help you cope with sexual tensions.

Instant relief from horniness, huh?
Trust me. I’m an expert on this. And I’ve only recently started to figure this out late in life.
It’s not just relief from horniness, though. It’s about relief from any type of feeling you can categorize as general disappointment.
This might include anger, resentment or frustration.
But let’s stay with horniness for now.
The worst part of feeling horny is the prospect that you’re the only one who cares. Your arousal level is so high it’s like a big fat pink elephant in the room. And your frustration is building because you fear your desire will be unnoticed, unappreciated and unfulfilled.
The ultimate disappointment is the feeling of being unattractive and undesirable.
It’s like an avalanche gathering momentum. In a split second your joyous morning wood is reduced to a flaccid lump of shame and resentment.
So, what’s the answer? How do you get instant relief?
Plain, simple honesty. You need to get comfortable calling out that big, fat, pink elephant in the room.
