Porn/masturbation addiction can improve with gradual habit control, not just willpower.
Try to:
* Reduce triggers (unfollow/block porn content)
* Stay busy with exercise, hobbies, social activity
* Avoid being alone with phone late at night
* Delay urges by 10–15 minutes instead of acting immediately
* Maintain proper sleep and stress management
* Seek therapy/psychiatrist support if it feels compulsive or affects daily life
Masturbation itself is usually not harmful in moderation, but excessive use with guilt/loss of control may need professional help.
