You could also walk on glass or tie a string to your privates and then to a door and slam it (if you are a male)…😃

What no. That’s just going to make you associate sexual desire with pain and that is the last thing you want.

How does one suppress their sex drive?

What are some actual methods that are used to suppress it?

  1. Stop masturbating to any immoral material… videos… magazines… Cable network anchors… Whoever…Whatever! Cold turkey…No exceptios! :o
  2. Begin living a G-Rated lifestyle… friends… entertainment… everything!
  3. Frequent confession, reading the lives of the saints and increased prayer.
  4. Your sex drive will back off as your mind becomes more pure.
    If you are committing “solitary acts of impurity” a.k.a. masturbation, be patient and allow that vice to fade from your routine because there is no legitimate place for that in the christian life. Always say the Act of Contrition should you fall. Be patient, you’ll get there!

Not sure why you would want to do this. It’s natural to have a sex drive, since people by nature are sexual beings. No need to supress it, but don’t let it get out of control either.

According to Church teaching, sex outside of marriage is a mortal sin. Masturbation can be a mortal sin. Unconfessed mortal sin sends the soul of the unrepentent to suffer misery in the fires of Hell with possible no escape, nor even one minute’s relief for eternity … and you say there’s no need to supress it?

DOH!!!
😃 😃 😃
 
Didn’t Christopher West teach that you don’t suppress it? instead giue it to the Crucified…

I’ve given some serious consideration to sterilising myself.

Umm, I don’t think that would help at all. Many men in our society get sterilized (get a vasectomy) so they won’t have to try to control themselves. If you mean castration, that would be mutilation, and I have a feeling you would regret it afterwards.
Prayer is a good idea. Especially the Rosary. You know, we’re not really supposed to SUPPRESS the sex drive, but be able to TRANSCEND it when necessary.
