I sent Mr.HP a psychic message to "do you" last night. Did it work?

I'm going to recommend a mental exercise that's been working for me lately. Think about a time in your life when you made a conscious decision to be less sexual. For instance, I think about the semester in college when I made the big mistake of taking three 300 level physics courses at the same time. Realize that this is a skill you possess or a tool that you have at your disposal when you need it. If you feel yourself becoming upset about lack of sex, you can choose not to make it a priority. Of course, at least for me, this only works in the short run. I can tell myself "You can survive without cookies for the next month because you need to make losing the 5 lbs. you gained over Easter a priority." but I can't tell myself "Cookies are bad. It is wrong to want a cookie. You can never have a cookie again.".

Basically, what I'm saying is forget about Mr.HP and his ways for a while. Do what you have to do to make yourself comfortable until you have healed from this infection. It's okay to put dealing with your LDH on emotional hold until you feel better.
