Thank you for your comments, I appreciate your taking the time to reply. I have a certain understanding of the ocd thing, and that has been presented to me before, although I can't say I've pursued it to an end. I'm not aware of any other compulsions I may have.
My epiphany here, or whatever it is, is that for the first time in forever, I had two weeks or whatever of not 'thinking' about masturbating. I only really thought of it to think of why I wasn't thinking about it! That's why this whole thing is like being hit over the head for me. I know I can probably stop physically stop doing what I'm doing. At the worst I can be restrained. But can I stop thinking about it? I can't cut the grass without thinking about masturbating! I can stare at red lights and think about it. I don't know what the answer is. My doctor just brushes it off the times I explained as best I could to him. He makes it like I'm stupid. I'll check into stuff, but I don't feel like seeing a shrink right now. I saw them when I was a kid. For what? I don't feel depressed, I don't feel sad. I just can't stop thinking about sex.
And don't get me wrong. I'm not pushing for a castration here. I like playing with my balls. But I'll be darned if it hasn't been running through me head since all this started. If that's what it would take to feel like I did for those two weeks, it would be a hard call right now. That's why it's frustrating to see on this baord that it appears NO doctors seem to be willing to entertain at least chemical castration to some degree. Why don't they think that people can have a legitimate libido problem? Isn't that what hypersexual is? Isn't that thinking about it all the time? What do they do for thinking about it all the time?

Re: A Mans Right to Choose
QUESTION
Usually, medicine looks upon hyper-sexuality as a symptom of a problem.
The Psychiatriac lingo will describe it a psychosis, obsessive-compulsive or perhaps a bi-polar disorder.
Sex perhaps needs to be looked at in a different manner, but I think that their problems are in their own outlooks.

Re: A Mans Right to Choose
A-1 is on the money here. I've also had life-long issues with hypersexuality, and it's what has drawn me to this board. As A-1 says, the medical/psych community likes to paint hypersexuality as a symptom, not a disease. It's the old business of "Little Johnny is masturbating. Better sign him up for little league."
When I discussed all this with my doc (and yes, I'm fortunate to have a doc who is open-minded about all this) we talked about hypersexuality as a problem in its own right, and we talked about ways to deal with it. My comment to him (made him laugh) was that in our society, being TOO HORNY is like being TOO RICH or TOO THIN. Everyone loves a STUD.
Trouble is, everyone loves a stud until he hits on his co-workers, ogles young girls, sits in the retirement home wanking, etc. Then he's a pervert or a weirdo, etc etc.
Too much testosterone or too big a response to it can be a medical problem. Too many docs can't accept that.
The androcur is in the mail, btw.

Re: A Mans Right to Choose
Whether it has to do with I don't know, but bi-polar is rampant in my family. And yes, I'm seeing myself drawn to this board too. I'm getting a wealth of information here that is very enlightening. It's a relief just knowing that I'm not alone.
What did your doctor have to say in a real way about your problem? (hypersexuality?) And yeah, I've shot some of that scene too. They think you're lucky being that way. Well too rich and too thin can be as dangerous as being to horny. And not even so much that as constantly feeling that urge in every part of your body and being. I'm like a walking hardon no matter what I'm doing.
And I've read about this androcur here, but I am not a pill person to any degree. I'll take them if I have to, but only if under the supervision of a doctor, and even rarely if then. That's not even approved here is it? (u.s.) But thanks for the reply. And finally is your doctor compasionate about your problem? Does he take you seriously? What did he/she suggest?

Re: A Mans Right to Choose
Numnuts,
Or I guess, not so Numb Nuts,
you sound amazing. There are
people who have special talents.
Have you ever considered the
adult entertainment industry.
Many people produce solo tapes,
if you are concerned about health
issues.
And any way, how much sex, is
too much sex? You sound normal
to me. Well, maybe extra-normal.
I am beginning to realize that some
people may have sex drives beyond
anything I could comprehend.
Manimal doen't like to think of himself
as sexually inferior, but the facts are
the facts.
However, back to my old rant:
Location, Location, Location
In some places you would
be dung, in other places you
would be a treasure.
If you could get some of the
things you describe here on
video, even without pro
cinematography, it would
surprise me if you did not
make a pretty penny.
I would be first in line.
(I prefer pictures, so
please make a photo
set, too.)
I apologize to those who
consider adult entertainment
in an unfavorable light.
I, obviously, do not agree.
You must agree, however,
that making a nice bit of
money might be preferable
to biological reconstitution.
Make the metal change,
not the biological change.
Edison spent all his time in
his laboratory. Should he
have cut off his head, so
he would be 'normal'?
No. No. No. No. No. No.
On societal integration:
If you are running very hot,
there can be an instinctive
recognition of mismatching.
The decision to avoid
interactions which would
only lead to conflict is not
antisocial, just common
sense.
If you need anyone at all,
and you may not, you need
someone who accepts your
uniqueness. Someone who
loves what you are. Look
around. Every one is not a
clone.
Unless you are unhappy,
unless you are hurting people,
your life is yours to be who you are.
