    Does anyone else find themselves struggling with public masturbation. My urges get so intense that I will often find myself masturbating in the mens room at work, or in my car, or in public mens room at stores because when the urge hits it gets so strong I can’t stop myself or wait to even get home. Sometimes I even get turned on more by doing it in public, and it makes the urges even harder to resist. I need to stop this behavior, but it’s so tough. Don’t know if I’m alone or if this is common.

    I definitely had this problem before in school. Here is what I recommend you do if you want to stop it: keep a journal and gather the data.

    try to write down what happened to you right before you got those urges. Eventually, you’ll see a pattern. For me, I noticed I was doing it when I started getting stressed, so my brain ended up asking for a dopamine release. I ended up replacing the bad habit with calling random friends on a quick walk break
     
  3. One of the things that helps me regulate my behavior is to set a routine and follow it. If you believe there is a likelihood of masturbating at a certain frequency, plan your routine so you won’t be in dangerous places at those times.

    Then fill your routine with other activities, so you may reduce the frequency. One step at a time.

    Thank you all for your advice and thoughts. Trying to take it all in and do what I can. This is a huge struggle, every minute not stroking feels like an absolutely brutal challenge, but I’ll keep trying my best to make you all proud of me.
     
  6. Same problem here. I believe its called "compulsive masturbation" and it can quickly spiral out of control (for me anyway) where the shame of what I am doing just drives up the arousal even more.

    Many of my worst relapses were in similar situations. And sometimes they start because I get super turned on by something sexually arousing that I see or that happens to me, but other times it's just stress and anxiety

    I hope you mean that you masturbate in your car when you are stationary with the engine switched off. Masturbating while driving is literally criminal. You can injure/kill yourself and others when you are not paying full attention to the highway. :oops:

  10. Yeah you're just feeding your brain dopamine hits due to the habit with added risk. Men have higher risk-taking potential than women, I have read.
    Being arrested would work, but it looks like you want to avoid that. How?

  11. One thing: try to imagine how it looks to other people, like you watching a video of you doing that. Turn your view in the other direction and onto yourself.
    I did the 'public' (but cautious) same as a teen, but really I was just being like some ape who had just discovered that he can connect his penis and his hand.

    I have the same issue as you. I will see something or even think something erotic and have to find a way to release l. I tell myself it’s ok because I can then go back to doing what I was doing with a clear head without constant agony. This is probably just my porn brain however. If I see a female in something erotic or bending I. Certain ways that is usually when it hits me

    I did enjoy wanking in public places or in the toilets or showers for example. I don't have the thing that some of you guys above mentioned, where I have to jerk off then and there. I got even more turned on if another guy seen my dick and seen me doing it, even if he just watched or did the same himself. I think in my head this made it 'okay' for me to do, because someone else was engaging in similar behaviour!

    Hey OsirisBlack - are you free from acting upon those urges now?

    I used to expose myself and masturbate. It is great fun and exciting until the police arrive to arrest you...
