Hyper Sex Drive & Question for you

Hi all, I'm 29 going on 30 and it seems that my sex drive just won't chill down a bit.

Hi Jman,
I'm giving this and shot and I might be way off base here but I'm sure I'll be corrected if I am.
I agree with Tish. This isn't a high sex drive, it's an addiction to sex. When that's all you think of, when just SEEING a pretty woman gives you the need to masturbate, you've got a problem! Twice a day, for anyone, male or female.....on a continuing basis, is a bit much. Even at 18, it would be a bit much!
It sounds like you've mentally separated the act of sex from any kind of feeling for a partner. Most of us want sex (sometimes often) with the one we love because it makes us feel closer, and we love the shared intimacy with someone we care about.
How long since you've had a good physical? There's a possibility that you've got too high a testosterone level. That can be fixed.
If it's not something physical, then just like all addicts, you've got to WANT to stop the behavior, and you've got to get professional help.
Hum...I think it's possible for someone to just simply have a higher sex drive than others. But this isn't the case. My ex had the exact opposite problem...it was due to a gradual decrease in testostrone. Soon...he didn't care AT ALL
Hi Jman. I have to agree with Tish and Dakine on this.
It sounds like sex has become compulsive for you. Is it possible that you're experiencing OCD or just substituting sex for what you really crave...companionship, affection and emotional intimacy?
It really doesn't sound like sex is very satisfying to you or you likely would be completely satisfied and happy with one or two sessions at a time, IF this was just about having a high sex drive, that is.
I know that men tend to use sex as a means of getting closer to their partner emotionally, as well as a means of sexual gratification. Maybe what you're looking for is closeness and continuing sexual activity even when you can't perform anymore just prolongs that physical closeness with a partner.
I would suggest getting a complete physical and then based on those findings, get some counseling, if needed. There are medications for obsessive/compulsive disorder that could help, if need be.
