Anonymous #3 said: I've quit masturbating. It is extremely difficult but obviously not impossible. It actually took me a couple years of trying before I managed to succeed. For me, it was because of my spiritual beliefs. I think if you don't have any type of spiritual beliefs then you can probably never quit. If you find yourself getting sexually aroused or lustful, then just back away from the situation. Leave the room and go by yourself to remind yourself how badly you want to succeed. It takes about 15-20 minutes for your hormones to leave your system, so don't go back to the previous situation until your hormones have passed. Remind yourself that it is an addiction and you're basically like a drug addict but with a different kind of "drug". It takes serious mental control. You have to be able to purify your thoughts and recognize situations that may trigger you to relapse. You also have to develop your conscience so that you feel really bad when you do masturbate. Lust is the initial trigger for masturbation. If you can learn to fight lust mentally, you will have a much easier time. Use thought purification to prevent lust from getting a hold of you.
