very strong desire to masturbate

Why not stop PMO, in particular the P part ? There is nothing good about P. It has no redeeming qualities or benefits, rather it creates harm and destruction. Why have that (P) a part of your life ?

If you haven't already done so, please read the "Getting Started Guide" available on this site's home page. It includes a lot of information that you will find helpful as you start your journey of healing. And it will answer a lot of questions you may have. Also have a look at the "Glossary" on the top of this page for definitions of abbreviations and terms that may be new to you.

If you've ever "edged", read this:

Short version: DO NOT EDGE ! EVER !

Edging is really bad. Edging trains your body and mind to expect and to need prolonged, often very intense, stimulation in order to reach O. That level of mental and physical stimulation doesn't happen with PIV relations. Guess what: when you attempt PIV, your body and mind don't receive the kind of stimulation it needs to O, instead your body responds with PIED and DE. Not good.

Edging does NOTHING good, so stop. Easier said than done, but it is certainly NOT impossible and very much worth every bit of effort required to stop this damaging activity.

DO NOT EDGE. EVER !


Destruction isn't a "big word", it does not over-state what P causes. It only begins to describe the results of P.

There are plenty of things that have been written about the damaging effects of P. Search this site and you'll find plenty to read.
