I have a problem

I’m a 17 yr old male and I have a severe masturbation addiction. I literally cannot stop doing it and it’s having a very negative affect on my life. Sometimes I even go as far as chatting to people online and sending sensitive images etc, and as soon as I’ve done what I needed to do I’ll be overwhelmed with guilt. I’ve been trying to quit for years. Pls does anyone know how to help me . Lastly, only reply if you can help, don’t tell me there’s nothing wrong with masturbation ad I shouldn’t feel guilt etc

I’m 12 (I’m a girl) and the same happens to me so I just watch porn and think that in hooking up with some one I know I’m not proud but I can’t help it if you come to the problem that you can’t stop sending pics or looking at them then when you masturbate don’t use technology and close you eyes and image you having sex with someone also try doing it quick so you don’t get too much in the image you know hope this helps

I tend to masturbate more when I'm bored. I'd suggest taking up some sort of hobby or activity and seeing if it takes your mind off it. Note that you don't have to go fully dry: just cut down to less than 3 times a day at first, and aim to stop the exchange of images with people on the internet.

By the way, how many times a day are we talking? 5, 6, 10? If you're only masturbating once or twice a day, there's no issue with that. The only thing I'd say you should definitely stop is, as you say it, the sending of sensitive images to people online, as you don't know what those people will do with those images once they have them.

Just make sure you wash your hands with soap and hot water and dry them thoroughly when approaching people with food.
