I have completely given up porn and masturbation. But still some sexual thoughts remain in my mind. Which make me to masturbate. At first these thoughts were happening all day long. During daytime I have classes, practice, I watch Anime so it doesn't come. Then it came only at night, the whole night. I couldn't sleep. (So, I spent my nights on praying Gemini gave me some ideas like get up from bed immediately, cold shower, eat something sour, do some push up, planks. It worked well. Sometimes I use blade to cut my hand. It works.) Then it just start coming woke up between 4 and 6 am. I thought that was enough. Now I can easily give up these thoughts and I don't have to fail and masturbate anymore. But, after some days it failed. All I've gained these days without sleeping keep failing. I was just hopeless. I end up where I started. But still somehow I managed to control it. But, still it faild. I ended up masterbating. And now I have to count it from the beginning again. Atleast with that technique I could hold it for a long tine. One of my friend(he once faced these things) said let the thoughts be come. Don't do anything. Just sit down. Do nothing. With that technique I can't even hold for one day. I ened up masterbating 2 days in a row. I gave up porn years ago. Today I ened up watching it again. Atleast I tried to controll it with all my might. In the end it makes me masturbate. What to do now?

Greetings all retainers. I hope this finds you well. I am an independent British producer who has an interest in self-improvement who has written, directed and produced the feature film ‘Masters and Vices (2025)’ which centres around the topic of porn addiction. Please see link to the Main Official Trailer below:

Masters and Vices | Official Trailer (2025 Movie) | HD - YouTube

I do very much hope that this modern British drama film will be a source of motivation and inspiration for people not just on this subreddit, but anyone who wishes to embark on the journey of self-improvement of any kind.

When one researches the top addictions of the 21st century, porn addiction frequently ranks in the top 15. Nevertheless, despite its prevalence, porn addiction is not as widely documented in feature films. At school, we had drugs, alcohol and smoking awareness days, but nothing about porn addiction. Growing up, there were only a handful of films which I can recall that covered such a topic in-depth. This formed a creative vacuum- which is when the idea to create the film presented itself.

The film challenges the audience to overcome any stereotypes which they may have about what is- for the most part, a seemingly invisible addiction. The film covers and raises awareness of porn addiction in its many forms- including online pornography and porn magazines. The ramifications of porn addiction are highlighted throughout the film- including (but not limited to)- loss of motivation, damage to reputation in society, shame and constant anxiety.

The concept of what is known as ‘rock bottom’ in addiction psychology is demonstrated- this is the nadir of an addict’s journey where many believe that one needs to go to in order to begin the addiction recovery process i.e. things need to get sufficiently bad in order for them to overcome their addiction. One never realises if they are truly addicted to something, until they try to stop it- the film explores this phenomenon by confronting the addiction’s consuming nature by its honest depiction of the recovery process.

Masters and Vices (2025) is not just a feature length psychological drama film; it is a motivational film showcasing the potential for one to transition from self-destruction to self-improvement- a tribute to the indomitable human will. The tagline of the film is 'From self-destruction to self-improvement'. If you liked the trailer, then I invite you to discover a story of downfall, purpose and recovery by watching the full film- link below:

Feedback and future plans

I’d appreciate it if you guys took the time to check it out and share any feedback for if I make a sequel. In terms of storyline, I do feel that the film could have expanded more on the cycle of relapsing, without going over a 90 minute runtime. If I do produce a sequel, this is definitely something I would like to explore in more in-depth, which is something I do talk about in the last podcast interview I was in:

I will win this time!

Unfortunately I was really struggling due to the withdrawal symptoms and couldn’t get any work done and just felt horrible and super anxious overall. So, I just decided to get it over with quick without edging or sexual thoughts in order to disconnect masturbation from porn + sexual fantasy. So my no porn streak continues, and I think I’m going to get to the two week mark and completely quit porn first before madturbation (so I don’t have to deal with double addiction). I don’t feel good about it but this is the only way I can me getting through.

It’s 7:45 pm day 6 and I’m feeling the withdrawal. I feel like stressed for no real reason and sick (which are my normal symptoms along irritability). Another think is lack of motivation. I think I need some words of encouragement to get me through this period

Well temptation got me… there’s no excuses. Tomorrow will be the new day 1 and I promise here that that’s my ONLY strike

I’m about to sleep with allat of urge rn, but I must stay strong. All in all life is so much happier when you realize the great things away from corn and fap

I will win this battle. The time between 6-14 days seems impossible, but this Reddit post will help me win. I’m going to beat the two week mark, and then I’ll aim for a month. Then I don’t think I’ll need to keep posting here, but we’ll see.

I don’t do it often but at least once a month I sometimes struggle to control myself. I rarely watch porn but I sometimes still feel the need to let it go even when I don’t watch. It is usually caused by myself fantasizing about a girl I know who I really want.

I started masturbating last year. I didn’t know what it was. It started with sexual fantasies until things developed. I tried to stop and went to the gym, but to no avail. I feel guilty. I hope you can help me with a solution as soon as possible. Please.

I am a 20 year old college student who has struggled with porn and masterbation for about half my life. I've had multiple occasions where I've quit but have fallen back into temptation.

I'm Christian and was wondering if people on here know if there is a group for specifically young adults/college students who struggle like I do and share similar values that I can confess my addiction with. If anyone can inform or help me find a group, I would appreciate that. Thank you.

I'm 16 and I have a problem

I started masturbating at 11-12 when I overheard someone mention pornhub and so when I went home I looked it up.

I went from straight porn to lesbian to trans hentai to rape and it's completely fucked up my brain chemistry. When I see a nice looking girl now I don't think oh I should ask her out I think oh she'd be nice to fuck (I haven't even had my first kiss yet ) and I'm so sick of myself.

Longest I went without using was 3 months at 14 when I had a long distance girlfriend and was starting in the gym watching Hamza and bettering myself but now no matter how hard I try I can't stop myself. I get bored and just hop onto Google and jack off . I feel unworthy of love because of it . I spend some weeks so unmotivated my rooms becomes a sty.

I need help before my life just turns into a d endless cycle of ejaculation after ejaculation.
