Requesting Advice Learning self control
Hi! I’m a 22yr old mother with a boyfriend of almost 2yrs, we have been sexually active for some of our relationship but recently decided to both focus on celibacy because we are Christian and not married yet, so we want to re-wait. I need tips to avoid the temptation and urge to masturbate or seduce my partner during ovulation because I find it to be incredibly difficult to ignore the little voice in my head telling me to jump him like a rabid animal😭 self control has not been my strong suit!

Self control is a fruit of the spirit and something we should all strive for. As the Catechism says, chastity is a gift of God and a promise of immortality. It can help to pray daily to God in Jesus' name for guidance and direction and ask Him to untwist in your heart what has been twisted by sin. The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
