    I am a 19 year old Indian male.I discovered masturbation accidentally one day at the age of 12. I used to watch adult movies and feel excited which led to my stroking the penis. I masturbated regularly for 6 years, sometimes thrice daily while other times thrice a week. Once I joined college I started watching Porn and would lie on my belly at night and rub my penis against the bed and masturbate. I have been masturbating in this fashion daily for more than a year now.

    I have a weak squeaky voice, sunken eyes with dark circles under them. I am low on confidence and have regular back pain, neck pain and knee-aches. I have low energy and am extremely lethargic. I am almost always unwilling to take up any project. My height has stopped growing. I still remember the day before my computer class X Board Exam I masturbated. During the exam I was feeling tired and lost 2 marks over a silly mistake I would not commit otherwise. I messed up my JEE Mains and Class XII Exams.
    I fared badly in my first two college semesters as well. I have an extremely weak immune system due to my masturbatory practices. I contracted Typhoid last December despite having been administered Typhoid vaccine.
    I also have an extremely weak eyesight and my presence is despised by women.I want to regain my control over life through this platform.

    Low self-esteem can be a real problem. I struggled with this for a long time, and the shame from a porn addiction can make it much worse. I haven't been on it long, but this platform has already helped me a lot. I wish you luck on your journey :)

    And like @Florida Freedom said, you're a valuable human being.

    Welcome. I encourage you to develop a comprehensive systematic approach to address this issue. Some of what is done is taken from substance addiction recovery programs, and it just doesn't translate that easily when it comes to PMO because it is not a strictly abstinence issue - even if it is a good idea to be abstinent for a period of time.

    Like a computer system with issues, you cannot necessarily count on a specific period of time for the reboot. Some systems take longer than others depending on what's going on, it's the same with rebooting with this process. While 90 days is a good general guideline human psychology and biology is complex and the way to deal with it is to systematically address it all, that is what would take time but it is well worth investing in that investigation.
