Tactics ~

Military tactics? You mean like step on a mine in a field - that'll take care of it permanently.

 

i think the very best for me is getting into a particular mood - a kind of chastity mode. i guess, for those who can't relate to that, it might feel a little bit like depressed but in a beautiful northern autumn type existential way.
it's a kind of sober purity identification that counters the wannabe hyper-maleness that binds me to attractive females.
i can best generate it by reading something biographical of some inspiring saintly figure in a way that i can somehow relate to.
unfortunately, i think i'm also addicted to the male personality i've created, so i don't have as easily access to this as would be wholesome for me (see my ridiculous counter!).
but this distraction cum identity building mood alteration seems to be to me the most promising way to go.

 

I would say controlling your thoughts is the most important thing. Controlling thoughts is half the battle won.
Rest is developing hobbies and interest where you can spend time productively.
