      It’s completely normal to have sexual desires, especially as you are growing and your body is going through changes. These feelings are a natural part of being human, and you shouldn’t feel ashamed about them.

      But if you want to manage or reduce these desires, here are a few things that can help:

      Keep your mind and body busy .Get involved in activities like sports, reading, art, music, or helping out at home or in the community.

      Avoid triggers .Stay away from things (like certain websites, movies, or social media content) that increase those feelings.

      Talk to someone you trust . A teacher, counselor, parent, or mentor can give you guidance and help you understand your feelings better.

      Focus on your goals. Remind yourself of your dreams and what you want to achieve. Staying focused on your future can help you stay in control.

      Surround yourself with positive friends . Being around people who support your values and goals can make it easier to stay on track.

      Remember, it’s okay to have these feelings but how you choose to handle them makes a big difference in your health, relationships, and future.
