I Need help finding peace with Zoophelia

Hello, I'm new here. I came to Zooville because I have been struggling with zoophilic thoughts for a very long time. As many of us know, this isn't a topic that can be easily discussed amongst people in our personal lives - not without the risk of social ruin, which is what has led me to wanting to speak with people who can relate on a personal basis.

*In advance, I read the rules, however if anything I say infringes anything, or if this post should be better posted elsewhere, please let me know!

My Story
Before I ever found a sexual attraction to people, or before I even knew what sex was, I was finding myself becoming attracted more towards animals. This started with allowing my dogs to lick me, which later progressed to me finding a strong sexual attraction to the penises of my friend's horses. Horse penis would, from that point onward, be a fascination of mine. When I got older and started watching pornography, watching horses have sex felt more comfortable than human on human porn.

At an older age, I had my first zoophilic experiences with a male dog, though I had attempted to have sex with my female dogs in the past. I was convinced I was becoming gay, but burdened by the knowledge that these actions are inappropriate, I turned to the furry community as a safer outlet. I identified as a furry for 8 years, however, it was only a cover up for the real desires that were inside of me.

Eventually, I got over the furry fandom, which, for a long time, kept my zoophilic tendencies at bay, but with that out of the way, they slowly began to resurface. This led me down a path where the stress and struggles in my life led me to mentally "snap." Without mercy, my daily waking and sleeping life became intruded by a nonstop flow of zoosexual thoughts towards my mare. The feelings were intense, and bleed into my dreams. I would close my eyes praying that the thoughts would go away, but I would find myself only fantasizing, still, in my sleep.

I couldn't restrain myself any longer. I decided to experiment with my mare and one day I gave in to having sex with her. The experience itself was amazing. The guilt that came afterwards, however, was not. Shame, though, wouldn't stop me from doing it again and again. Each time I gave in to my libido, I told myself, "never again," but it would continue, until a day came where I had almost got caught.

This moment was frightening, and had I been discovered, I would have fled and driven into oncoming traffic. With that experience in my mind, I haven't done anything since, and distanced myself from my mare (She is well cared for). The thoughts and the desires, however, remain.

I have never held strong relationships with people. I would love a wife and family, however, it does not seem feasible for me. I am also not convinced that having sex with a mare is abusive (by default). They are extremely sexual animals with each other while in heat, and take no offense to being sexually stimulated by a human. The idea that they cannot "consent," is also incorrect in my eyes. When my mare enjoyed what was happening, she would relax and raise her tail for me. When she had no interest, she would simply walk away or move her hips. There was never any ear pinning or threatening behavior that came from her, and certainly no signs of emotional abuse. As someone with experience with these animals, this is something I would recognize.

This all leads me to what I am here for today.

What I am here for
I have spoken to therapists, now I want to speak to members of this community that understand my story. I am not looking to be encouraged to have sex, or to kink or spread fantasies. What I need is understanding and help in finding peace with this part of my self.

I am facing the potential reality of "giving in" to these desires, and investing myself into the idea of being in a long term sexual relationship with a mare, or a stud. I know within myself that these things could never replace a wife or a family, but there are parts of myself that can't be locked away forever.

I want to know, from a deeper perspective, (not a sex or fantasy driven one), what others who have walked a similar road have to say about this topic.

I love my mare with all my heart. I love her as much as I loved my last relationship. Yet, there is something inside of me fighting. One part of me says "give in, just do it." Another says, "You are better than that; you were meant for more; you will ruin everything. It isn't worth it." But life is exhausting. I'm tired of fighting. It isn't my fault that these feelings are inside of me. I want to be at peace.

This is something I would like to have a conversation about.

Thank you.
 
This is a common problem for zoos or even nonzoos who just watch zoo porn. Here are some discussion about it.

I am some zoos will tell you that fighting your own head over this is pointless and you are not going to win.
It is easier to accept what you are and do what you want to do. Many zoos have been in this place and eventually accepted themselves and now have relations with animals and are fine with it.
As long as you are not hurting anyone, you are not doing anything wrong.

What exactly do you think you are ruining?
As long as you stay safe and not expose yourself, you are not going to ruin your life.
This is a bit more of a problem if you also have a family and a wife who you then have to hide this from, unless you are both into it.

Thank you for recommending those :) I have been reading through some of them since I made the post.

My biggest issue with my zoophelia is not the zoophelia itself, but the overwhelming urges. My therapist described it as being more of an addiction, than anything. When I am alone with my mare, the sexual urges become pretty strong and get in the way of things. It is difficult to work with her, then need to stop because I catch a scent of her pheromones.

I'm afraid that, should I give in, it will become an obsession. I don't want every horse that comes to me to be a target to my sexuality, even if it isn't abusive. I want to be here to help these animals. I don't want to be flooded with predatory thoughts that cause me to want to have sex with every single one of them.

I don't know if giving in would lead me into addiction, or if things will balance out and I will be able to live a healthy, well sexually regulated life. In general, I have lived an extremely unsatisfying sexual life.

Oof yeah, i get where you are coming from. I used to feel like that too, at first i didn't want to admit it, i wanted to run away from those thoughts but no matter how much i tried they will always come back. I think the first step you have to take before you do anything else is admit the fact that you are indeed a zoophile, not just say "oh i'm a zoophile" i mean admit that yes, you are attracted by this and you like it, trying to deny it will only make the thoughts stronger till you inevitably give in to those impulses. Once you come to terms with that, next time you get the urge of wanting to do it, don't ignore it and face it directly, avoiding it only makes things worse.

I'm not an expert on this so take all this with a grain of salt but i get where you are coming from, just know that here you won't be judged as long as you are respectful to others. Have a good day
Thank you :)

By "facing it directly," what do you mean? Or, what do you suggest?

Lots of people seem to have an obsession with the sexual things they do not have yet.
For example I used to absolutely love watching zoo porn until I got my own dog.
Nowadays I practically do not watch porn because I have enough sex that it is something normal and not special.
I think it is possible, that once you have experienced that enough times, it will stop being so attractive.

Thank you. That is an excellent point!

I don't know how to describe it but using my own experiences as a reference, whenever i feel bored or my mind is not being distracted by anything, i immediately get the urge to watch and jerk off to zoo porn, and almost all the time i act upon it by instinct rather than as a conscious decision. The next time you feel those urges, rather than just ignoring them try to identify them and become aware of when those urges are manifesting. I don't know if what i'm saying makes any sense but it is what i do and so far it has helped me, tho it will take quite some time to get the hang of it. It can be very addicting and hard to manage but i promise that overtime you will be able to control it.
That does help. Thank you.
 
I finally realized when my desires weren't going away that this is who I am. I accept myself because I don't see anything wrong with how I feel (anymore), and I feel so much better. Not only do I feel better about myself and am happier, but also my impulses have calmed down. It is hard to finally accept yourself when struggling with desires, but for me it helped my desires to accept myself. Idk, maybe that's just me ?‍♂️
 
The thing that helped me is realizing this is a part of me, much like my arms are a part of me. I don’t have to feel bad about things that are a part of me. I should never feel shame or bad about things inherent to me. They aren’t my entire being but they are still a part of me. Because it’s a part of me, I can not change it, but I can accept it and embrace it-
