Now I am almost 15 and I am having an extremely difficult time dealing with it. I masturbate all the time and I'm not ashamed, but I want to quit because I'm too addicted. I masturbate whenever I get a chance. I'll even do it at school, during my classes. I would really like some advice on how to stop because its interfering with my family, friends, grades and job. Can anyone help? Reply to this Question

 Here please read this post... it mostly deals with pornography, so I don't want you to get any ideas.. I think you watching pornography is a very bad idea.

You do sound like you are addicted to masturbation, it's interfering with your life in a very bad way. There is nothing wrong with masturbation, but anything that you abuse will cause you lots of problems. At the moment this is no longer proper pleasure but it is close to self-abuse. Read the link, even though it's long, the aunts in this post have been very kind to explain how pleasure can cause your brain to become addicted to masturbation so you feel you can't live without it.
Don't be scared of asking for help. These things happen to lots of people. Some are addicted to alcohol, some to pornography or masturbation, some to coffee or alcohol. There is no shame realising you have a problem and asking someone to help. The shame comes when you don't deal with the issue, hide away and make your life a misery instead of getting your problem solved.

Cutting down is the best thing... first promise not to masturbate at school.... then promise not to masturbate before 6pm... then promise not to masturbate on Sundays.. continue like this until you masturbate only at certain times and it doesn't rule your life.
In the mean time, please find a hobby or interest that really excites you Often masturbation is abused when people are bored and not sure what to do with their life. If you find this difficult and still need help, please talk to your school counsellor.

 Well, everything ends in that thing inside your skull. But still, it might be hard to deal with it. Why dont you try a psycologist. It might help.
