July 3, Someone said: Masturbation opens the door to many physical and mental problems. I started when I was 13 years old and found out by accident. Although my friends started before I did; and would ask me if I did, I would say "no, that's nasty", and they would tell me to do it. One night I was taking a bath and began to was my penis with my hand, the sensation that it created with the soap was incredible, then it happened. I has hooked at 13. Over the years, I have experienced hair loss, lack of energy, decreased mental capacity, no social life, poor erection, perverted thoughts, pain in my ass, pain in my testicles, twitching throughout my body, enlarged/swollen prostate, weak pee stream, low self esteem, general weakness, feeling like I have no legs, utter disgust with myself. I'm 26 now not married, no kids, but I recently stopped and all I can say no is that I feel great. It's like my body is making a slow recovery. My hair is even coming back. Pray and the lord will help you quit the porn and masturbation. Eventually you will break this habit. For me, I just quit one day because of the terrible pain I was feeling due to the habit! With the Lord, all things are possible. Pray in the name of Jesus!

And i also knew that if we once try to watch porn subsequently in the same or other day i'll feel extremely to masturbate, but still sometime i am giving small chance to this deadly evil or devil i.e. i'm excited or curious to watch porn.I am ignoring all these facts when i am curious to watch them.And still i am prey to this very enemy within me. This enemy is getting overpowered when i am listening to some real life happenings of mischief porn. I'm trying in all ways to get rid of this but still i am suffering forgetting about all these sufferings at the start of the process. But i am sure that i will overcome this problem and become normal. I define normal means whenever i see bad happening or bad things are shown to me over internet or any other means i will not get agitated to see that content even though it is peculiar or interesting or fascinating. I will definitely become normal because i want to become normal. So friends understand your problem first and then define what you want to. And one more thing don't give any chance to watch porn!
July 6, 2013 Someone said: All i want to say is that keep up the good fight. NEVER EVER LOSE HOPE. This habit is horrendous. Leave it asap. It made me a drop-out. i just dont want any1 else to be the same. All the teenagers, you guys still have time. Get over this habit before completing high school. If you need help, go for it before its toooooo late. And excessive masturbation tendency could also be due to hormonal imbalance. So do go for a check.

July 8 Someone said: Hey ther!=D Im turning 19 soon and ive been masturbating since around the age of 10. I was influencd to porn mainly by frens. Masturbation was also my way to take out stress.without knwng it actualy made me more stress.and continuing this habit made me even more horny overtime.i used to abstain for around half a year.nw i can barely go for a week or 2. I was an active kid.now im lazy. I cud concentrate in class.now id slack off n thnk bout porn.Masturbatn does a lot of negativ side effcts to our bodies. It only pulls us away from being the angels we r suppose to b.=) ur choice to make a difference.x)
July 12, Someone said: I am a 19 year old female, and I discovered masturbation around 14. It has never had any serious effect on me, academic or social wise, which is why I don't find it wrong. But lately it has dawned on me I must stop. I have met the guy of my dream and I fear the affects that masturbation may have on our marriage. I love him too much to continue in anything that will jeopardise our relationship. The worst part is that I went to a full time theology school with degrees and certificates, and yet I still struggle with this secret sin. I want to tell someone about it but there is no one I could trust, I ask God for strength but I received no acknowledge on my prayers. I really don't know what to do. But I know I must stop. God, I really wish you're here...
July 12 Someone said: i cant stp masterbatn i woz vry guwd ib class bt wen i strtd masterbatn thngz changd hv bn failn in examz i clp alot in class xo lazy memory capacity low i jst dont knw wat to d i nid help
July 13 Someone said: I am 23 years old, I started masturbation when I was in high school, ten years ago, a friend of mine told me how good and relaxing you feel when you do it, so I decided to go back home and masturbate, after I did so, I slept for four hours, and I woke up afraid and intended not to do it again. A year after, I started to view porn and then this destroying habit started to be a part of my life. The side effects of this habit started when I was 20 when I observed a lack of vitality and my knees started hurting me and I felt weak, few months later, my concentration vanished, I began reading the paragraph three times to know what is telling me, my memory was becoming weak, and I had a back pain that lasted for weeks during which I couldn’t even leave bed. Now I can decide about my life, my career is affected, I lost the interest of all I am doing, I dream about nothing right now for my life. Thank you for your stories, it really alleviates, gives hope and builds determination to stop this evil.

July 16 Someone said: I am 20 and i use to masturbate since i was 16. the main thing that make me sad for is not about any religious or moral things. it is just about wasting my vital energy. i know that if i could have a relationship with sex inside it i could handle my masturbation and erotic scenes and hentai addiction. but it is hard to make a relationship in my country ( I.R.I) , specially one with sexual benefits.

July 18 Someone said: I am 14 years old. I have been masturbating since 13, a couple times everyday, in the last couple months I found out how bad it really is. IT IS RUINING MY LIFE! I feel depressed and used to cry afterwards. I lost some interest in girls and gained some interest in guys! This never happened before and I blame it on masturbation because it never happened before. I always feel tired. Recently I have started to get this weird thing were when I move quickly my eyes completely black out! Never happened before but now it happens every day. My lower back feels sore sometimes. I have basically felt all the effects listed.I told my dad 3-4 months ago, so happy I had the courage to do it. My family is very strong Catholic Christian and he wasn't mad, just sad and is helping me to this day and I am so thankful for that. One thing I have to say is GET HELP YOU CANT DO TIS ON YOUR OWN!
