Welcome to Healthcare Magic
You seem to be suffering from this problem. You need to understand that you can displace these thoughts of wanting to masturbate with other more pleasurable activities. As soon as you get these thoughts, you can call up and talk to a friend, or watch a movie or listen to music, go out and spend time doing something you like etc. Immediately displace this thought with other good thoughts not related to masturbation. You are 18, probably having lot to study at College. Concentrate on your studies and tell yourself that you will finish a Chapter whenever you think of this. This way you can do something productive and not waste your time. Consult a Psychiatrist if you are not able to do this to control yourself as this obsession may be associated with other problems like depression which may need to be addressed by the Doctor. Eat healthy. Interact with everyone around you. Spend more time with people you like. Avoid talking about this topic with your friends if they do not help. Exercise daily. Do Yoga to relax.

Hello, welcome to HCM. Masturbation is a normal physiological process. You should not get overpossesed with it. You should try to keep yourself busy in your daily activities. The more you keep your brain pre occupied with other things the lesser need you will feel about it. In case you still unable to control yourself you must visit a psychiatrist who would be able to help you in a better way. Wish you good health.
