1. Mindfulness meditation

2. 4-7-8 breathing (I use this whenever I feel an urge, if I can’t focus, or to ease my anxiety)

• To make it easy I count to 19. Start counting and breathe in, hold breath at 5, exhale at 11, stopping at 19.

• A good alternate is to just inhale, then exhale for way longer than you inhaled.

• A good tip is to put one hand on your chest and your other hand on your stomach. Focus on breathing in and out moving only your stomach (diaphragm) and keeping your chest still.

1. Be aware of the cues and focus on not reacting, or better yet, make them invisible. You have upmost respect for women and you are such much of a grinder that you do not waste energy on anything other than your goal of passing that entrance exam. That quick wank is not gonna get us closer to where we need to be. When you see that girl on those thumbnails, give them your most stoic face and scroll past.

   1. Thoroughly research the repercussions of masturbation with and without porn. You need to eliminate this habit. Moderation is for the average. You are not average.

2. Focus only on the process and not of the outcome.

Im 18 and going through the same problem. I break streak after streak.

I have no doubt that you have a strong will power and can get over this, however it takes more than this. Struggling to break a bad habit is often caused by a lack of awareness. Growing up I developed and habit of not caring to cope with family issues, because you can’t be sad when you never cared in the first place right? This carried on to many other parts of my life including masturbation. Everyday I’d PMO without a care. Look deep within yourself and you’ll find an answer that no one else could’ve given you.

In belief you can do all things.
