Anyway to lower my sex drive??? Its driving me mad...

My sex drive is really high and its driving me mad... I am single but have a fwb that I see every few weeks. But if for example we meet up and it only happens once or twice in an eveing I get really annoyed.

And it was the same with the last guy I was going out with, twice per night was his limit and it left me in a terrible state...

So is there anyway to lower my sex drive? I am starting to feel that I cannot be satisfied! Sad

Citralopram kills the libido dead. It's prescribed for depression or anti anxiety.

Either that or invest in a Rampant Rabbit?

I go through phases where mine is through the roof as well. But I can recommend having a baby - that'll kill any sex drive stone dead for a good couple of years Grin

Sounds more like frustration than a high sex drive! What's the prob with multiple orgasms instead of multiple shags? Do they come too quick or something?

Anyway, flippant answer if : get older and have more kids

Worked for me

I completely get where you're coming from!!!

I have a FWB, I see him 3/4 times a week but it's never enough Blush He doesn't get it, says I must be a sex maniac.

It drives me up the wall and to be honest makes me pretty darn irritable, especially when he goes away for a couple of weeks!

Wow 3-4 times per week would be great I don't even get it once a week right now Sad

Anyone tried the vibrating knickers?? As the rabbit doesn't work for me!!

I am with you on this one OP. I forgot how terribly horny I would end up when I was 15 or 16. I thought it was just the teenage years as that happens a lot. Now I've began to lower my dose of my medication though, it's going sky high again - it's a nightmare. I already have a healthy sex life but now I find myself wanting sex every night, really. Maybe 1 or 2 times a night, sometimes. At very least 2 or 3 times a week. :o My fiance doesn't mind as he has a high libido too, but the actual sensation of it during the day when I'm doing something or whilst I'm waiting for him to come to bed etc is quite uncomfortable.

Even when on the medication I went through a period of a lot of the horns when I was in College a few years back (18/19 - it was my second college) and I remember someone knocking on my door asking if I wanted to come out for a drink and I told them to do one, in a less polite way. They shouted in, "Hey, not my fault if you're sexually frustrated--was just trying to be friendly!" I wasn't sure it was that obvious?!

Anyway I don't really have any suggestions except from masturabation, getting to meet your fwb as often as possible--any other friends you could be 'extra close' with? If you have 2 or 3 on the go, you could get it pretty much 2 or 3 times a week. :)

get a few more FWB's ?

The whole point of FWB is that you don't have to be monogamous, so get another one or more on the go. You probably need a man who cares more about your orgasm than his own, so he can give you several before he gets his.

Well try going without a shag for 17 months then you'll know what frustrated means Wink I want to jump on every man I see!! I have a date lined up on Friday and whilst I do not have any plans to shag him I am REALLY hoping that it turns into something as my libido is through the roof. Sorry TMI (I have NC for this btw Blush)

oh, i understand, totally.
its bloody difficult, esp if you are a highly sexed person.
To be a long term single, without any kind of regualr sex, does send you a bit loopy, and then when you do get it, you just want more and more and more, and cant get satisfied.

and to be fair, no rabbit, or sex toy can replace an actual human and the intmacy that comes along with it. Its not interactive at all.

FWB are harder to come by than people might think.
