How do people stay rational with their sex drive going on?

Question

I figured out that I've been almost completely asexual my entire life. I did have a sex drive but I wasn't actually very attracted to most people. And even if I was attracted to somebody it wasn't that strong like I could just ignore it if I wanted to. But yesterday I smoked some weed and it usually dulls my rational brain a bit so more of my feelings and subconscious things come out. And my real sexuality like surfaced the problem is my brain is kinda like a computer but it couldn't even process this, but I felt like my sex drive was turned up to a hundred and it was kinda scary. My whole priorities in life changed and I could only think about sex I couldn't actually go have sex right then because the whole thing was kinda paralyzing me but it was all I could think about. My body actually started shaking and I was kinda hyperventilating just because my brain was overloaded it didn't feel dangerous but it was still weird. I have had similar experiences before but this was definitely the strongest one. But it was also good because I felt an energy and drive that I haven't had in my life and that could push me to achieve great things.

But I was wondering how people even function because my sex drive felt soooo stroooong it was insane like I wanted to just ask the first girl I saw if she was dtf and then the next one until I found someone. I couldn't focus on anything else. Until now I just ignored most girls but in thi state I couldn't do that at all. After an hour of lying around on my bed it got pushed back into my subconscious, it seems like my mind isn't fully ready yet but I do think it will come back and stay eventually. What I also realised is that I was born to be a musician cause my sex drive also gave me energy and like developed my personality more and it gave me a clearer view of who I was gonna be or could be.

Do you struggle with staying sane because of your sex drive or are you just used to it?

I'm used to it. Teenage years were tougher. I do still find it distracting though when I'm working somewhere surrounded by women. They don't even have to be that attractive. It just puts random thoughts into my head and I have a hard time focusing. But you know, we can go to a private place and release those urges typically and then I can get back to normal. :-D

What I struggled with more growing up was kind of cheesy but it was more the yearning to be really close to a girl, to love her and for her to love me back. I wanted to be close, and that wasn't an urge I found I could quickly release in a bathroom without actually getting into a serious relationship with a girl I could actually feel that way about.

Nah the weed wasn't the problem it was just like a trigger that enabled me to look deeper into myself but I think it will come out eventually no matter what ^^. Are you the girl from France again?

Ah really? You're playing games huh? No I haven't changed my mind yet, the sex drive went away for now so I feel kind of like before it happened now. And when it comes back I'll just have to try and find women to have sex with. I never really tried before because I wasn't that interested but now I will give it everything I have :)

I think it will be a positive experience for me in the long run but probably really weird in the beginning.

You are too serious, I'm just joking, I would say you should make a tour and explore yourself cuz it will revolut the way you look to life. Travel and see places. Climb a mountain or just do jumped jumping. You need it. What you felt with weed is normal cuz you are messing with chimstry 😂

Yeah that's what it seems like with me too lol. I think my brain kind of pushed it away because I like to be in control and rational but the sex drive is too strong it controls me instead. And also because it would change almost everything about how I'd live my life and I think I wasn't ready for that. I always felt like I was maturing at a slow pace when it ame to things that weren't reational thoughts and knowledge but people didn't really give a fuck and just expected me to be an adult but now I wonder what my mental age even is.
