Going to give this a try

I have been masturbating for a long (since 11yo), and since that time its become a daily ritual. It was a marvelous feeling that radiated pleasant sensations throughout my body. That was then. Nowadays it feels compulsory to begin and end my day with a few fireworks. Often I find myself distracted by the need to reach that ecstatic peak. Control over these impulses seem to get weaker as the days, months, years go on. My mind is in a constant fog, and its now affecting my personal and professional life.

My goal is to gain control of my own ship and steer it wherever I want to go. I'm not sure how to start, but I a willing to learn and do.

 

Hey thank you for reaching out.

I need some strategies. Keeping busy with work and friends works for a bit, but I still relapse.

I’ve noticed my relapsing happens more often whenever I’m anxious. Since this is a stressful time I find myself relapsing every other day.

What has worked for you before?
