Pornography addiction is difficult to get rid of. Read my previous answers to similar questions for the low down and dirty but basically, it is a question of self control. Avoid the internet and this should be a major improvement in your consumption of porn.

How often does the average male masturbate?
It depends on a lot of factors, the most important being age. For an 18-year-old male, a rough average is once a day or so. This is slightly higher for younger teenagers — maybe 10 or 12 times a week, and slightly lower for older people. You might be surprised by how often adult men masturbate — even happily married men.

I think I'm addicted to masturbation. Is that possible?
It is, although many, many people think they're addicted when they're really just doing what comes naturally. For more on this topic, read the article Is Masturbation Addictive?(http://www.jackinworld.com/library/articles/addict.html).

How can I masturbate less often, or quit altogether?
It's tough; it takes a lot of will power. It can be done, especially if you're driven by very strong religious feelings. However, JackinWorld's position is that it's not worth it. We think you should enjoy the harmless pleasures your body can provide.

Answer 3

Pray to God for help. Avoid being entertained by anything that has sexual overtones; tv, books, movies, magazines, etc. Dismiss sexual thoughts immediately and consistently. Avoid talking about and listen to sexual subjects. Keep your mind and attention on wholesome things. You are what you eat, literally and figuratively. Also, avoid being around tempting situations that could lead to you watching such things. Most often this is when no one is around. You also may be able to take note of the times and situations when you are most sexually driven. Habitually watching pornography can lead to more serious problems. What you allow your mind to dwell on is what you become. This unclean practice is not an easy one to overcome by most but with time and patience you can overcome watching pornography. God understands the struggles that some people have with watching such things and he is willing to help those who want to become free from such mental and sexual slavery. Ask for God's help.
