    Sometime at work I get this strong urge to touch myself. Sometimes at my desk, I'll just browse the NSFW sub reddits or watch porn vids/gifs as I work. This will always lead me to the bathroom stall where I sometime spend 15-30 minutes masturbating. Sometimes I won't even orgasm, as I fight the urge to. I can't be alone in this can I?
     
  2. You are not alone, but this behavior is not normal. You need to focus on your work. What about a level of stress you feel in everyday work? Do you cope with it or is it overwhelming you a little?

    It can be a bit overwhelming for sure. That is definitely a reason I run and hide in the stall and watch porn.
     
  4. This happened for me also, thankfully only once.
     
  5. Many many times. I even would call my girlfriend and provoke her to do it at work.

    Way more common now with smartphones.

    I’ve done it at several different jobs. Do you know that company computers almost always have spyware? Your usage is almost surely traceable, so don’t do it. You could be fired.

    I never look at it on my computer. Only on my phone. Still bad, regardless.
     
  9. Damn! Glad I haven't ever been in such a situation. Sounds a gamble, if somebody catches you!

    I have to ask, doesn't anybody ever ask, "What the hell have you been doing?", when you disappear for half an hour? o_O
    You are new to this community - welcome btw - so you may not realise how damaging this behaviour is. Looking at porn for 15-30 minutes and masturbating but avoiding orgasm is called edging. Every time you do this you have to reset your NoFap challenge to 0 Days. Why? In actual fact, not having an orgasm and ejaculating cum is incredibly harmful to your brain. :confused:

  11. Lol. Because we are good at hiding.
    Or because we work from home. Or travel and work. You don’t have to do it in the Bathroom, can be in your car.

    You are not alone. At my last job (where I had some pretty slow days and a lot of privacy), I would do that. It was rare that I actually masturbated at work, but it did happen a few times. The most common thing would be that I'd read (or write) dirty stories at work and save the actual masturbation for later. Looking back, it was such as stupid, self-indulgent thing for me to do, and that is part of what helped me to realize that I had a real problem.

    Not at my current job but in a past job yes. This is when I realized how bad this addiction was yet I'm still hooked on porn and masturbation :(

    Of course... at work, at home, in the garage, the side yard, the backyard, even in the restroom of my marriage counselor. I had a double edged sword then, I was hooked on cocaine. I quit the coke cold turkey and substituted one vice for another. It’s the same for all of us, we just need SOMETHING to feel good, I’m hoping this group here will become my cure-all and return me to normalcy.

    You’re on the right track brother ... keep strong - listen to all the other struggles that ppl have been thru and you’ll begin to put the pieces back together in your life to live guilt free, proud, and self actualized.

    Hang in there !!! Like all addictive pursuits, we can overcome this one too. The solution is in shared experiences and learning that you are not alone in this quest for freedom.

    I can honestly say I have never had the urge to masterbate at work. I might have felt horny but waited until I was home.
