Quitting Masturbation

[Sagedude]

Any tips on quitting masturbating?

[Patchy]

first...why do you want to quit?

Well I guess you could keep yourself busy e.g. with mates alot that should stop the urges

[Bobby]

Patchy had a good idea, keeping yourself busy.

Also, keep away from erotic things like porn or playboy.

[Gumleaf]

finding a hobby or something that fills in all your time is the best way if you want to quit it. good luck with it then.

Get a male chastity belt

That would look nice lol :P

Just get a hobby. Go outside and play. Listen to music. Get involved with the community

if you are thinking of quitting altogether, its going to be mighty hard (pardon the pun). Maybe limiting yourself might be the best idea. If you are at it 3 or 4 times a day, then you have reason to try and cut down (not necessarily stop). If you are doing it once a day, which is the norm, then I wouldnt try and COMPLETELY stop, as masturbation is a completely natural thing to do at this age. With time, you will eventually start to naturally cut down on how often you do it, but whilst you are a teenager, theres not much hope or point to try and stop.
Once a day seems the average, and doing this at times where its not going to interrupt your day isnt worth trying to stop. What you might find is that you can keep going for a couple of weeks, maybe even more, and then you will eventually HAVE to give in. Its hormones, and therefore, its nature.

stay away form things sexual...................but why quit?

[just...me]

stay away from anything sexual, or bus seats that vibrate (sometimes trigures an erection for me ll) and just attempt cold turkey

[grimlip]

as long as it isnt effecting your life, like you do it like 12 times a day, there is really no reason to stop

[Aηdy]

Get it cut off. Lol, joking aside, like others have said, just keep yourself occupied with different things.

[Mikel14]

hang out with family and friends more it'll take up your time and you'll get closer to them

[chris__robin]

honestly tell us why you want to quit wanking i think a lot of people are curious to know.
nothing wrong with it ... its enjoyable and fulfilling for those 10 mins or so lol

[smarti20067]

play sports, exercise, hang out somehwere

[looloo]

quitting seems to be an impossible task
maybe you can cut down the frequency
by the ideas others mentioned
if you ask me you can start working out in the gym thatll keep you concious about your body and not wanking.

[damorules]

lol why wud anyone wanna quit!

[Flowerpotmen]

Why stop???

[Chatman]

i think if i smoked, it would be easier to quit smoking that quit masturbating, the best i can do is wait a few days before doing it again. If you do it, then congratz on achieving what you wanted. Someone once told me that pinching your wrist helps keep the erections down, so maybe you could try that when you're getting aroused.

To quit might actually not be beneficial. For one, its completely natural to masturbate in your teenage years (and beyond, though you generally cut down after puberty).
The difference between this and smoking, for example, is that smoking is a conscious decision, and not entirely natural to do (hence why only 25% of the population do it). Masturbation is no-doubt down to hormones only. Its something that you almost need to do. If you ever try going without masturbating for 2/3 weeks, youll get my point.
It also combats stress somewhat, releases positive chemicals in the brain, has been proven to help prevent prostrate cancer and, to top it all, feels good!
Your body producing these hormones will mess you around somewhat, and its perfectly natural as well, to try and combat the psychological effects that masturbation has.
Interestingly, homo sapiens is not alone in masturbation, nor sex for pleasure. There are other animals in this world that masturbate intentionally, and dolphins have sex purely for pleasure. Finally, masturbation is not uncommon, with many a picture on Greek pots of men pleasuring themselves, as well as paintings from as far-a-field as Japan 600 years ago! Take pleasure in the fact that everyone does it!
