Lust, Struggle and Surrender (SR)

I liked the last video about lust, though it left me wanting more...

I get the part about accepting ourselves as we are. Actually, watching Rey's videos really helped me get past some guilt and shame. I can now act out without huge moral or emotional consequences. Though, I still want to master my sexual energy...

I would like to just let it go the natural way (as I did with alcohol and drugs 6 years ago), but this is no small business, this is the second most powerful instinct! it will keep coming back...

I know that applying restraint (going past urges) does bring great reward, but somehow Rey's current teaching argues against such struggle.

With booze, I really did go all the way to the bottom before being done with it,

Not sure I want to go at the bottom of sex...

What is the middle ground between struggle and surrender?

Any of you got into a comfortable position in the face of lust?
