Any tips on how I can give up masturbating and watching pornography altogether?
I am an 18 year old male who is keen to enter bodybuilding and become a better Catholic. I know some people say that masturbation leads to the body producing higher amounts of testosterone (very debatable) which may help build muscle, but for me it completely drains me out and puts me off doing my imperative cardio and weight training sessions. That is not to mention the overwhelming guilt I feel afterwards, the way an addictive drug works. I also come from a Catholic family. And as far as sex goes, although quite a few women find me attractive (tall, eyes, abs etc.), I rather feel at this time that I am too young to have any type of sexual relationship and would prefer to wait until I am married (which probably won’t happen for at least another 7 years).
So, I would be ever so grateful if you could give me a few tips on how to give up porn and masturbation (preferably without wearing a chastity belt). Is there a way that you can block all unsuitable websites from your computer, and what about preventing your vivid imagination and impure thoughts from getting the better of you when you are lying in your bed? At the present time, I have abstained for 2 days, and already I am getting these urges. It is a good thing I am using this site, otherwise I may be doing something else.
