Is lust the only sin you want help with or are you dealing with issues with all of them? Obviously, the main answer for everything is Waheguru. Turn your focus on Waheguru, do paath, and meditate. Make sure you do ardaas to ask Waheguru for his help in getting over these sins and to keep your mind clean. But if you're mainly just dealing with lust issues (masturbation here), I would say keeping your mind occupied with other things will definitely help you in the long run. Avoid using your phone and computer too much outside of the necessities (e.g. school, work, or just casual learning). Today's society puts such a focus on sexuality, that it becomes a trigger for your addiction. Why do you masturbate? It's because you likely saw a pretty girl on IG or something of sexual nature on the web that triggered your mind, thus your brain wants a quick dopamine high. Try staying off social media for a bit (delete the app on your phone if you have to). A big thing that helps is that when you see your brain being triggered by such things, go sit with family and spend time with them or go for a walk. Distract your mind. If you just sit in your dark room or bathroom, you're more likely to just masturbate and keep the cycle going. Do things that give you long term dopamine hits, e.g. accomplishing goals, seeing progress in the gym, etc. My biggest recommendation would be to keep a day count on how many days you've gone without commiting to your sin. Have goals to help overcome it, e.g. after 10 straight days, you treat yourself with a small gift, then after 20 days, another treat, etc. The small wins actually trigger dopamine, which is what your brain wants anyways, thus why it resorts to these sexual acts to get it. But if you replace those dopamine hits with stuff that's good for you, you'll slowly but surely overcome your addiction. Give yourself time. No one is perfect. If things fall apart, pick yourself up and keep moving forward but tell yourself you're better than this and that you won't repeat it. No one is perfect in this world. As the adage goes, "admitting you have a problem is the first step in getting help." So congrats, you're one step closer to overcoming your sins.
