hi joel hope things are goin well with you,been a while since you posted your question but iv only just seen it, it is something you will probably control and be aware of as you get older.im sure most lads go through similar experiences. whats quite responsible of you is that you have felt there is a problem and looked for help.not many young lads would go out there way to do that. good luck and best wishes

Hi james one thing that i have to said about masterbation u can control masterbatiön when u will change following habbits 1 if u have girlfriend then u should avoid midnight call and avoid sexual talking with your girlfriend 2. Make more friends and daily u will go for tempal /churh and take proper meals 3. U know when u adict for masterbeating and also consume liquir and your memory will also week because our human alcohol level is 0.8 and if u drink liquir thrice a week then after 1 year your alcohol level is 1.4 and with masterbation your level is 1.8 and in this level u lost memory cell and if alcohol level is 2.4 then person goes to comma pls cosume less liquir
i agree with james39 it perfectly normal and actually supported by doctors but i do think you may want to go out more if you feel you do it to much to help distract you form doing it. I believe if you can cut back easier if you do. p.s. i dont believe it could causes prostrate problems a failed marriage, addicted to porn, and worse a lack of respect for women. so don't worry about this.
Also I agree with James 39 you probably are suffering depression, gone off food, tired all the time and difficult to concentrate. All part of your addiction Dude. I'm ok now but still have prostrate problems for life. Had to get help when got into bad porn. Seek help and discuss with a priest or pastor of a church not your local one though(they will help you). Be careful though to only discuss in a public place not alone with he or she. Join " YOUTH GROUP" and do outdoor activities. Well wishes,
Marko.
Too much dude, I started @your age now I have prostrate problems a failed marriage, addicted to porn, and worse a lack of respect for women and even worse had been looking at illegal porn to get off as ordinary just wasn,t doing it for me. One or 2 times @ week is ok trouble is it leads to more and more. Take up a range of hobbies and sport to keep your mind active and think about something as soon as you feel you need to wank,
Good luck,
Marko.

you are a normal boy, believe me i raised 2! You need outside interests and friends. First you need to go see a doctor, and find out if you need to be on an antidepressant, even if it's for a few months, just do it! Get out of the house, join some groups and make some friends who bring out the best in you. I have a feeling you are good at many things, but just havent' found the right thing that interests you. Stop beating yoursself up. Start by keeping yourself dressed neatly and fix up your room according to what you can afford. I feel better when I get busy; help your mom cook supper or your dad with the yard work. if that doesnt work, help somebody who needs help. Old people love company, and usually need things done for them. I found when i get down in what I call the Snake Pit, i can get out by doing things or going to town, or visiting someone. They think I'm doing them a favor, but I'', also helping myself. Good luck to you. I hope you will work on being happy and finding things around you to be thankful for. love, bopeep
Hey Joel, im 17 and from philadelphia, i had this problem when i turned 15, some things i did was thinking about other things, sometimes when we sit in our room bored, nothing on tv, nobody to text, or talk to our hands tend to wonder to places that arent really getting too much attention. to make it worst if we are having sexual desires that we dont know how to control, masturbation seems like the only way to control the problem.
But,,try to go for walks, or jogs, keep a diary or even talk to a close friend about keeping your mind off of doing it..
Hope i was of some help

I agree with James39, life is way too stressful to feel bad about something as natural as masturbation. Take care of yourself and see a doctor about those other symptoms.
The urge to masturbate can also be your body’s way of dealing with excess stress, depression and anxiety.
Listen Joel.....trust me..I am from California, and when I started masturbating I was like 13 yrs. old....it's totally healthy to do this..it relieves stress and it's life...who told you masterbating is bad for you??? that's not true...it's part of life and most people have sex every day if they are in a relationship, so that is not different from masturbating since you are releasing your *** just the same way you would if you were say with a partner. Listen to me. I believe you are suffering from depression from what sypmptoms you are having especially loss of appetite and tiredness...its possible....you can go on a medication that will alleviate the depression, which will make you feel much better. Please go see a doctor and, by the way, parents aren't stupid and usually will totally support you in this...don't feel afraid to talk to them please. James
