I can't stop masturbating

I'm now 16 years old and I am masturbating at least once or twice daily and I can't seem to stop. I'm having holidays now so once I wake up, I'll switch on my computer and start masturbating for half an hour and again at night, close to midnight. How can I stop? Can anyone help me? Or at least tell me the side effects of masturbating?

First of all,  at 16 once or twice daily is in 'the norm.'     There won't be any kind of side effects as long as you don't become obsessed with this and increase the frequency to an excess.    You can try to re-arrange your schedule and plan other things first thing in the morning perhaps making it a point to go outside jogging for twenty minutes as soon as you get up.

why do you want to stop? it is healthy... is it something that is preventing you from functioning in life? sex is healthy. there are no negative effects. as long as you are not hurting yourself socially, psychologically, or physically. as long as it is functional for you... enjoy. :)
