Stop masterbating?

[Sam12345]

Hey guys im 16straight and i wanna stop masturbating because i know it is bad.. does anyone else feel the same? and HOW can i stop???

[darkie]

It's not inherently bad, and it's a normal part of being a teenage boy, everyone does it. Teenage years are the time when hormones are going crazy and everyone feels horny often.

You can cut down by keeping yourself busy and not having much boring or free time, because let's face it, at one point when you're bored, you just randomly get the urge to do it, and voila, you do. Also, like earlier, it isn't bad, but it becomes bad if it affects your life and your time management, that you take priority of pleasuring yourself than other important things.

Why do you think it is bad to masturbate? There is nothing bad about it. It's a completely normal thing. Both men and women do it. I'd say there is only a VERY small number of people in this world that doesn't masturbate. It's part of being a teenage boy and just being a human period. There isn't anything wrong with it at all. Would almost everybody do it if it is was "wrong?"

If you really are that adamant on stopping, just keep yourself busy, I suppose. The more occupied you are with other things, the less time you have to masturbate and the less you will probably think about it.

However, again, it isn't anything bad. It's more than normal. I do it and practically every guy in the world does it. Also, the only time it is a bad thing is if it's affecting your life. If you are skipping school, flaking out on plans, not showing up for important events, etc. then it has become an addiction, which isn't good.

[niceguy887]

Not sure why you would want to stop.

[Halo D3stroyer]

Its not bad your just trying to satisfy your urges.

[vernon]

:(i fell the same way

[Diverperry]

If you want to stop, you have to figure out where, and when you jack off. If it's in the shower, set a timer so you don't have enough time to jack off. If it's when your alone in your bedroom, keep the door open so you don't feel isolated. Things Luke this can help. Basically, try not to be alone too much haha

If you do it at night in bed, stop sleeping. Get up and run. It doesn't matter where or how far. Just run. Don't look at pretty women. Don't watch MTV. Don't look down when using the bathroom. Always wear thick abbrasive gloves. Put icy hot on your hands at least three times a day.

Okay those suggestions might be a bit much. But the point I'm trying to make is that it is extremely difficult to stop something your body craves. I'm not sure why you would want to stop a healthy habit anyway though.

Masturbating isn't bad it actually can help prevent prostate cancer and make you happy

That's not helpful at all. He asked for ways to stop. Not a sarcastic response and you're personal opinion.

Sorry you do not appreciate my humor, I wasn't making fun on your post at all. I don't think you have the right to speak for the OP either. The point of my post was to give him a little insight on the challenge he is potentially facing. Nothing can be defeated without first being understood. If you read the second part of my post I make a point that is completely relevant to the question at hand.

I don't think OP needs someone telling him it's hard because if it was easy he wouldn't have to ask for help. And I'm sorry, looking back at my post I see that I over reacted.

It is a ridiculous statement and deserves a sarcastic response. HUMANS MASTERBATE. PERIOD. Get over yourself, it's just nature.

Could not have said it any better myself. But you should know, guys get the urges not JUST when thy are board, but anytime.:yes:

[Allbutanillusion]

Normally I stay away from the sex related sections of this online community but because of the type of responses that you received I felt like I had step in.You have your reasons for wanting to stop masturbation and that is fine. Don't allow anyone to make you feel odd because you want to stop.
Also, not everyone masturbates, don't buy into that fallacy.

With that being said here are some suggestions(of course not all of these may apply to you situation)....

Instead of staring at the wall, thinking about how you're not masturbating during the time that you'd otherwise spend indulging, fill your life with engaging new activities. The novelty and excitement of doing something different can help replace the euphoric rush of masturbating, and you'll have a go-to distraction next time you're tempted.

If you have so little to do that your mind frequently wanders to sexual thoughts, it's time to add to your schedule. You'll find it gets easier to avoid masturbation if you're too busy or tired to spare any energy for distractions.

Volunteer your time. Devote your energy to helping people who've been less fortunate than you, such as working at a shelter, tutoring low-income students, cleaning up blighted areas, or raising money for a good cause. You'll get an altruistic rush from easing the burdens of your fellow humans, and you'll have less available time to stray from your goals.

If you have the tendency to masturbate looking at porn on computers, try moving your computer into a room where others can see you.

Consider installing porn-blocking software on your computer. Of course you will know the password to bypass the blocking function, but just having it pop up will give you a chance to reconsider and move to another activity instead of masturbating. You can also type a random password in a text file, copy and paste it when you enter your password and verify it, then delete the text file. Then, you will not be able to know the password of your own porn-blocker. This is the best way to keep you strong and spare you the struggle or weakness.

One thing that works with the software is having a trustworthy and understanding friend set the password for you, so that you never know what it is. This way, the software will block your computer from being able to access porn, but you will not be able to deactivate it.

If you have a problem in bed, keep mints or candy next to your bed. Sometimes eating a snack or a small piece helps. When your mouth produces more saliva it brings on seratonin, and that brings on a release of sense of well being and comfort. You can choose sugar-free so you don't worry about dental woes.

Certain times of the day: If you have problems before going to bed or in the shower, isolate these times and find a way to make masturbation less appealing. For instance, if it's a problem late at night, drop to the floor and do pushups until you're too exhausted to do anything but fall asleep. If you find shower time too tempting, start using ice cold water only, you won't want to be in there for long.

Set up a reward system. Bribe yourself to stay on-track with rewards for good behavior. For instance, if you can go two whole weeks without masturbating once, treat yourself to a small indulgence like a new game or an ice cream cone.



Masturbation is damaging to your physical health. It is linked to prostate cancer, depression, and erectile dysfunction.

[Jaseeee]

I don't see why you'd want to?

[The captain]

well, really never feel that is bad, but if don't wanna do, just don't do it

[Lost in the Echo]

Well it's all about mind over matter if you wan't to stop masturbating, you have to be strong mentally, because there are a lot of sexual urges when you're going through puberty. Honestly, there isn't anything bad about masturbation, but you just have to fight the urge if you wan't to quit.

[lambo420]

Um. Its not bad.

[Jeremy_98]

I wish the feeling of wanting to do it would go away for me. My parents don't like it and havent allowed me to do it since they caught me when i was 11 but i still really want to do it all the time

[zerosix22]

It actually isnt bad but if you really wanna cut down im advicing you to make yourself busy and stay with parents so you cant jerk off while with them.

[mynameisJ]

Well from the moment you start, it's hard to stop. But you can get a hobby to get it off your head. But do it once in a while cause it releases stress :)

[Aajj333]

I'm sorry dude, just masturbate when they aren't home

[RCT109]

masterbation is not bad
to be honest its healthy and a stress reliever

I myself have wanted to stop because i just dont get the same feeling from it but when i get stressed it helps sometimes


so stop if you want

the way to do it for me alt least was to not think about it and do everything i normally did with out running to my room

and an other thing i would do is not do it when i woke up or before i went to bed and I found that when i didnt do it in the am or pm i was less likely to do it later on


hope it helped

[Oukakystan95]

i wish i could stop too but i love the feeling thats what makes me go back to it

[Jeremy_98]

I'm sorry dude, just masturbate when they aren't home

Yeah i wish i could. They make me wear something that prevents me from doing it. All my friends do it so its kinda stupid.,

[Aajj333]

Really? That's VERY extreme

[Aajj333]

Really that's VERY extreme

[curiousme]

I dont think there should be any reason to stop masturbating...it feels good and it keeps you from being horny and get boners all the time

[shahzaib92]

If u wannt to stop masturbating start fasting oncee in a week that will slow down ur urge to masturbate

[Kochanek]

Tried it several times. Never succeeded :-/
The longer I haven't mbated, the stronger gets the urge, so my *** is tingly all day long and I can't think of anything else but Sex. I wish I would have a lower sex drive...

[Steven_123]

No Real Reason to stop, it causes nothing bad to your body. I think I read somewhere it actually can actually help your sex life.
I tried to stop once, but then gave up due to blue balls :/

Good Luck Though!

[maxx14]

I wouldn't stop. I've cut down at certain points but thats about it.

Message Me :D

[matty96]

its not bad! why stop if it gives you pleasure! you should only stpo if it has become addictive

[Jay98]

There isnt anything at allall wrong with mastuebating. The guilt is a normal stage in puberty, i went through it too. Im over it an masturbate every day because i love the feeling and the feeling of a good orgasm. Theres nothing wrong with it unless it starts interfering with your life an its all you do.

[crispxtra]

Its not bad at all its actually very healthy for people the masturbate. Scientifically its very good for you

[klhohman16]

its normal to masturbate and you should not be ashamed of it and their is nothing wrong with it, and it is healthy to do it, even if you try to stop, you will always have the urge to do it again.

[ConorM]

Why do you think its bad?

[teen.jpg]

Hey guys im 16straight and i wanna stop masturbating because i know it is bad.. does anyone else feel the same? and HOW can i stop???

It really isn't bad. In fact, you could say masturbation does more good things then bad, or at least IMO. And if you REALLY want to stop, it's not going to be easy.

Good luck with that.

[cutebiguy]

Let me stop you RIGHT there...its not bad.

You're going through puberty, meaning you will have boners. Doesnt matter how busy you are or how miserable you make yourself, just so you dont get boners.

The fact that you're going through puberty means your body is now sexually capable.
So its really not worth the time and effort to try to stop something thats natural.

Stop fussing about it and dont let any one tell you that its wrong. Because EVERYONE goes through puberty and they masterbate forever afterwards.

Just have fun :)

[Kjack31]

I want to stop too, but I can't! It just feels too good!

[Fdmember]

Its not really bad but if you want to stop just occupy ur self

[RyanCrest]

I want to stop too, but I can't! It just feels too good!

Then there is no need to stop, it's not bad for you.

[Lost in the Echo]

I want to stop too, but I can't! It just feels too good!
