The best way to stop any habit starts with the desire to WANT to stop. Congratulations!
From there, the best thing to help continue breaking the habit is to find a hobby to "distract" you.
I know a number of people who have had problems with that habit, and each found their own habit. Find something non-sexual that you enjoy... reading, writing, playing games, working out, jogging, biking, watching movies.... whatever!
Anything to distract yourself when your willpower is fading is good.
If that's not enough, or if you need extra support with that, try getting an accountability partner. Someone you can talk to when you have cravings that you feel are too great, and they can talk to you when they are having too great a problem with their habit. They don't have to know what the specific habit is if you don't want them to.... you can just tell them that you want help with a habit you have.
It's also not the end of the world if you "slip" when you're trying to break a habit.... it doesn't have to be an "all or none" thing. I've known more than a couple people who tried to quit smoking (for example), did it fine for a few weeks, then took a couple puffs and stopped trying to quit because they felt like they failed.

Masturbation does not make you unhealthy in any way. You are a young man (assuming since you love basketball) and a young Muslim living in Pakistan (since you know when independance day is) so you live in a very conservative society where they have told you this is bad and will send you to hell. This is not true!
Why do you think God gave you this feeling? Why do you think God made you attracted to beautiful women and made love making pleasureable? Because it is natural and that's how new people and children of God get made! You are a healthy young man, and you have nothing to worry about.
This is like training, you have to get used to the equipment, and know how it works best for you to be able to satisfy the woman you love someday in the future! Do not feel bad. It is normal to want to control yourself but that is no reason to feel bad about yourself.
PS: If you are really concerned, try to limit yourself to once or twice a week. That is realistic.

masterbating is totally healthy but it isnt when u do it like 5 or 6 times a day because it will cause problems like not hard erections and shrinkage. i have a problem with masterbating to i do it 2 or 3 times a day, today i only did it 1 time because i focused on other things like school and sports and also when i read the sign effects to much masterbating can cause for you

Masturbating is not going to hurt you, unless you abandon other critical activities for it like school, or paying bills. Everyone does it but we are still uncomfortable talking about it. But not me. I am married, and I do it. I need it more than she does and she is cool with that. She laughs at me, but she is not bitter or disrespectful. Reading this "email" you are way too wound up. Your are tracking your masturbating activity? Beat your dick to death, just don't lose track of your other responsibilities. You will find a lady. And she will have masturbated too. It can not hurt your health. There is nothing that can go wrong.

Everything in moderation, wean yourself to that ends.
Try to keep it out of public restrooms, restaurants, bars
and the like. Try to localize it to one area of the home
(preferably bedroom or bath with the door closed), the
dinner table isn't recommended. Alot yourself a schedule
and a time limit, during that period-.- GO FOR IT !

It is totally normal for a young mail to masturbate... You are not doing anything wrong. Don't feel bad..... If you really want to quit then when you feel like you are seeing or feeling sexual divert your mind to other things. Do something that really holds your interests and put all your efforts into it. But again you are perfectely normal, it is ok and good luck

Dude, first of all, turn off the caps lock. Secondly, masterbation is not unhealthy, as long as you aren't doing it constantly. If you want to refrain from doing it, just find something to distract you. The less you do it, the less you will think about doing it and the easier it will be to keep from doing it.

There's nothing wrong with it. Everyone does it, even if they won't admit to it. However, if you REALLY want to stop, then everytime you feel the urge coming on, just think of Rosie O'Donnell naked and that should take care of it for you. (I AM serious)

Everyone masturbates. It is a normal function of life.Stop worrying. You won't go blind or suffer any ill effects. Just don't do it in public and you will be fine

if you are serious....i think you're first step would be getting psychological help. SERIOUSLY! there is nothing wrong with masturbating, its healthy, Normal, and does not cause illnesses. Thats just crazy. if anything, it helps relieve stress due to the release of endorphins in the brain once climax is achieved. Jerk away pal! It will help, not hinder!
(thanks for the points though if you're joking!)
