I've been doing it for about 3 years now, im 18 and i want to stop. How can I? Ive tried before and I can last maybe a week, and i'll see something, which will arouse me and thats it, im gone. In a movie I once saw, it was a comedy, but it had the right idea, this guy, when he got aroused, would go and chop wood till it went away, another guy would go and ring the church bells till it went away. So they had the right idea, so would that work somehow?

Don't deny natural urges the more you try and beat it the more you will obsess about it

if u think u have a problem with it then go and get a girl to do it for u. also when u get older these urges will settle down (atleast thats what im told, got the same problem)

There is quite a bit of controversy over this subject. There is really no medical reason to stop the practice though you may have a religious concern over it. You sort of answered your own question with the woodchopping thing.. Try to find an activity that is incompatible with the practice... I would actually prefer to see you release your sexual tension in this way (before you find a long term relationship) than to go out and "get a girl"... Of course you want to prevent it becoming an obsession and overdone.

Ok me and so many other people are having this problem. Here is probley the best thing to do if you turley want to stop. First make a goal for your self such as only do it once a week, then do it once every two weeks. If you feel an urge of doing it. Try geting yourself active and just dont think about it. Go out side ride a bike or play ball. It should help.

Well If you do it several times a day, is because you feel lonly, or you are in porno webs sites too much or into magazines too much or something like that, if you do it once or twice a day every day I think is natural and normal. Everybody do it, Male and female. but if you do it several times a day, I recommend you to get out of the house, get a job, or go to the gym, completely stooping it? that's not healthy and you loose sensitivity in your penis is you do it. But once twice or three times a day is normal... Don't worry about it, with time you get a girl and children and you get really busy and you will cut down, in the mid time stay away from porno, and no more than twice a day

Abstaining from ejaculation is an unhealthy practice that will compromise your health. If you adamantly want to stop I'd suggest you not look for advice on a health forum.
