I have been addicted to masturbation for about 5 years now. It used to be connected to a pronography addiction, but I've managed to get over that, and do not suffer with pornography addiction at all anymore. However, the masturbation addiction I can't seem to get rid of.

At the worst, I was masturbating multiple times a day. Over the last year, it's reduced to 3 or 4 times a week. There have been times when I've gone up to ten weeks without even being tempted, but it always seems to come back when Satan gets a foothold.

It nearly always happens in the morning, before I get up. This is especially true these days when I end up masturbating when I stay in bed for a while after waking up.

I know this is something I need to wipe out of my life, but nothing I do seems to help. These early morning times when I'm half asleep are difficult to escape from, as I'm not fully in control.

Romans 7:15 "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do."

I hate masturbating, but I still do it!
