    I started watching porn and masturbating when I was 13. I almost masturbated everyday, today I am 18 years old tried to stop my addiction many times but failed. I know I am objectifying women and I ashamed. When I was 13 I didn't know anything it was just a thing that used to give me pleasure, but today I know that porn and masturbation both are wrong for me. I used to be a great student but now my skills are depleted. I don't know what things I should do in upcoming days but I just know one thing and that is I can do it. My longest streak is 15, now it will be forever.

    Suggestions are more than welcome.

    It's hard, but you can definitely do it man! It may be hard , but no matter how strong the urges may see, they are not.
    Urges are rather weak and kind of childish, regardless, they are persistent. Do you know how to brush off persistent people? You tell them loud and clear your intention. That's what you have to do, when urges come you tell them "I don't want to" or a simple "No". That's it. You can do it mate, we all believe in you!

    Day 1 :
    Last day I slept early so I cannot go for M and I woke up early. Waking up early is usually a risk like when there is total silence, your mind diverts you. My mind knew that if I will M at morning then my whole day will get sucked up so I started studying. I studied for like 3 hours and then my mom woke up so the silence broke and risk to PMO reduced.
    I took early bath as well so I can feel fresh all the time. Studied all day long. At the moment I am alone at home, to divert my mind I am writing this. While studying I got too many thoughts about getting physical with my ex(never been physical) and etc but at last all of them ended. Now I am alone, urge of PMO is being depressed before it raises. I know I can do this. Journal writing seems good, it will help me recover from this addiction and it will help me to get better at English as well.
    Whenever I feel urge to PMO I read successful stories, when others can do it why I cannot?

    Thank you to everyone!

    My life is sucked up.
    Morning of Day 2 : I will ruin my life, I was totally motivated to not to M but I found myself alone and I was done with studies too. I tried to stop myself but couldn't. At the instant of ejaculation I stopped at first then started again and done. I am ruining my life, how can urge be stronger than me.

    What to do?

    This is why its very important to stay busy. Foresee situations like this in future so you can avoid them.
