I want to stop masturbating but I cant. I've been masturbating 3-6 times a day for the past 2 months. Ever since I broke up with my GF I've been jerking off to cope with the pain. I cant do this anymore. I just want to die.
I know I am addicted because if I dont masturbate for 3 days straight I literally start shaking and getting rapid anxious thoughts and I really have to rub one off.
How do I stop this? I quit smoking cold turkey from a 1-2 pack a day habit but this is infinitely more difficult than that.

Try to reduce it to once a day. Try to think about how you feel right after masturbating. Try to get yourself busy with something, a hobby, videogames maybe. Play loud music when you are alone and want to masturbate, something you can bang your head to or dance to alone.
Addicts as far as I know don't just cut from 100% to 0%, it probably needs to be gradual. Lower the times you do it, you don't need to suddenly stop completely.
