    hi!
    i am a 16 year old male.. I have been watching porn since i was 12 years old. I have been continuously masturbating for 4 years till now. Since December 2022, I have been trying to quit it but i am unsuccessful in doing so. I have tried all ways to stop it. I have tried meditating as well but my patience level is too low i cant sit silently breathing for more than 5 minutes. I have tried taking showers as well, They didnt help. I have disconnected from all social media platforms except Telegram. I had installed Telegram for the sole purpose of getting study material but somehow i always get back to watch porn videos there. I am writing this after masturbation rn. Every time i say i won't do after this time but i always end up doing it after 4-5 days. I know the bad causes of masturbation yet i do it. I've never had a girlfriend. Today, i was a bit worried if i would have an erection and then i suddenly ended jerking off. I've tried porn blockers as well *** but i am surrounded by too many devices and moreover i am a developer i am very successful in disabling blockers.

    I think mine is a really strange case but i really want to leave masturbation. Please help me.
    Sorry for bad english but i am not a native speaker.

    Don't worry, you are not the worst case. Everybody here is struggling or already struggled with it. My two cents for you is limit your time using telegram and find a hobby/many hobbies to keep you busy and away from PMO. I discovered that there's no magical formula, it's necessary perseverance and effort to find ways to avoid it

    I am a guy who has nothing to do the whole day.I don't go to school as well. I just have to study and attend some classes in the evening. I always have the morning time to study but i end up doing this. I'll try though.

    Hey man, I'm a amateur developer and I'm surrounded by devices. Monday I literally couldn't work because every time I sat down I wanted to start searching stuff up. It was wild, like out of habit I wanted to start peaking and then go to more. I had to just leave and go for a walk. Sometimes just leave your devices alone. It was a rough day, I felt terrible I didn't get anything done, but I had a lovely 6 hour walk and when I was done I was exhausted and slept well knowing I kept my streak intact and I beat addiction for one more day. Just do whatever you have to do to remove yourself from the situation when you flare up like that. You wouldn't put a cocaine addict stuck in a room with cocaine 8 feet away from him right, same problem were having. Its too accessible.

    Good luck brothers.

    When you have an urge think about how it's going to make you feel after you do it. If Im being honest sometimes after doing it for a long time our will power and determination goes away a little bit so we need to convince ourselves into not doing it and thinking about the aftermath. Hopes this helps brother.
