How can I stop masturbating?

Question

I'm embarrassed because I do it. I want to stop.

Answer 1

video games...piano...some sort of musical instrument

Anything to keep your hands occupied...But I suppose that still doesn't cover the possibility of vacuum cleaners.

hahaha

Answer 2

instead of stopping maybe u should just limit yourself. i managed to cut it down to once (or twice) a month. at first it was hard (no pun intended) but soon u get used to it. just distract yourself with other things. plus it gave me heaps more energy, dont know why.  

Answer 3

its normal and its meant to be done

just don't do it as much

if you want to not do it as much, play xbox live and stay up real late so you don't think about it

or something along those lines

Answer 4

Every time you feel you want to, try distracting your mind with something else. Eventually, you'll train yourself to not give in. Hobbies, video games, reading a book -- especially if it's something you do out of boredom.

If it's to relieve stress, there are plenty of other things to do. Exercise, meditate, etc.

So basically, you're finding things to replace masturbating to get your mind off it, until eventually, you don't think about doing it so much.

Answer 5

Why are you embarrassed when everyone does it? *sigh*

I suppose you could have someone smash both of your hands with a mallet. I don't understand why you would want to stop doing something that's natural.

Answer 6

Hey if you get some enjoyment out of it why stop? Who is going to see you if your doing it in private? My best friend is  my right hand. And it don't cost me a dinner or other paid entertainment.

Answer 7

Hey if it feels good do it. I think you'd be surprised how many guys actually do it. Be confident, let people know you do it. Girls don't care.. well the imature ones might, but they don't know how many guys do it.

=D

Answer 8

if you try really hard, itll work. also have fun outside and run around which will make you forget about it. dont look at p**n

Answer 9

For the most part, there's nothing wrong with what you're doing.   As long as it's just for a little pleasure and/or stress relief.  

If you find yourself doing this instead of things you should do (such as work, etc), then you have a problem.

Answer 10

Honestly the best method is self control because regardless of having a GF/Wife (or if your a masturbating female a BF/Husband) you can still be urged to m********e. If you want to try you can always put Hot Sauce or anything with Habaneros in it on your hands cause once that comes into contact with your member or v****a(if female) it will burn like h**l.

Answer 11

i do it almost everyday and the only way u can stop is keeping your self bisy over anything, anyway it workd for me when i want to  

Answer 12

You don't have to be embarrassed, its normal. But if you wanna stop i heard of doing your normal routine but one day of. When you get used to that two days of then 3 days of and so on and so on until you don't do it anymore.  

Answer 13

why are you embarrassed? EVERYONE does it these days. its nothing irregular. plus, its healthy for you. if you do it, dont be embarassed... its part of your manhood.  ish. i mean, go get a girlfriend if you really needa stop but dont just "stop" because its "embarrassing."

Answer 14

MA masturbaters Anonymous, that is a joke so don't get your hops up.

Answer 15

just stop thinking about it... some men find that as a way of saying there g*y without actually verbally saying it...

Answer 16

"All my life I've been over the top

I don't know what I'm doing

All I know is

I don't wanna stop

All fired up,

I'm gonna go till I drop

You're either in or in the way

Don't make me,

I don't wanna stop."

Answer 17

every time you get a ***** flick your t******e until it really hurts.

Answer 18

Why in the world would you want to stop masturbating?  Ask yourself if the real problem is that someone(s) is making you feel embarrassed or ashamed for doing it.  That's c**p.

Be sure that you are somewhere private and not likely to offend anybody, and go for it.  But not 20 times a day, that's a sign that you need some more hobbies. :-)

Seriously though-- people who m********e very often (many times a day) generally have entirely too much time on their hands (and not just time, probably).  Get involved with a sport. Ride your bike a lot. Go to the gym. I'm guessing you're pretty young (less than 16?) The urge to m********e is probably related to the new explosive increase in testosterone in your body. Burn it out. Do lots of exhausting physical exercise.  You'll realize a lot of great health effects (and look more muscular, which girls like, incidentally). And you won't have as much testosterone hanging out raging in your body.

Try this: say it's nighttime, as you're going to bed. You feel a strong urge to m********e. Roll out of the bed and do 50 push-ups, then roll over and do 50 crunches. Then get back in bed. And if you still want to stroke it, go for it.  In the end, the worst thing that can happen is you'll have better pecs and abs. :-)

Peace--

Answer 19

Answer 20

Masturbation is a normal thing, and once you start its near impossible to stop. But if you want to cut down try to cut down by boring yourself with it by reading about it on the internet. (Just watch out for p**n sites, they may not be the best thing for a person in your situation.

Answer 21

embarrassed why!?!?

It's perfectly healthy kiddo.

Answer 22

uhm..take ur hand off ur p***s...

yes both of them

no you cannot use ur feet!

no asking someone else to m********e you is not going to help you either.

Answer 23

It's become a habit. When you feel like it don't give yourself the opportunity. Go for a run or to the gym. Visit a friend. It's just your hormones at your age running amok.  

Answer 24

Slowly reduce stage by stage,if u are doing daily do it once in a week.

Answer 25

There is a self help group meeting at the mall. They are near the Orange Julius stand.

Answer 26

I'm pretty sure most every study would say that you were abnormal if you DIDN'T do it, as almost every guy does... frequently.

Answer 27

Stop keeping your hands to yourself.  Take a COLD shower.  Read the Bible when you get the urge to fondle, etc.

Answer 28

do what i did tape pictures of hillary clinton to your tv and computer and blast the backstreet boys on your ipod  

Answer 29

you shouldn't be embarrassed first of all, everyone does it, even girls! most just won't admit it.

it's actually healthy for guys to m********e regularly, it helps prevent prostate cancer.

so don't be embarrassed, and just think if you do it once a day you're less likely to get cancer! :D

Answer 30

Either break both of your arms/hands..or use duct tape. Or best case scenario, get a girlfriend/wife to do it for you.

(why on earth would you be embarrassed? It's not like it's uncommon  or bad)

Answer 31

Everytime you want to, either get up and do jumping jacks or pushups. Or you can run around the house 5 times. (I dont know that this will help, but i've heard it helps?)
