Hello Dear,

Your problem is a common problem faced by almost every one in your age.
You need to understand few things about it.

Having sexual feelings and masturbation is natural process and it does not effect your health otherwise, if not done in excess

To leave this habit you yourself have to put all the effects

Now some suggestions to control it,

Try to indulge more in outdoor activities.
Do not leave yourself with free time
Do not stay alone and seek company of someone whenever you feel like watching porn.
Avoid first few urges and try to delay as much as you can
Try to be with friends more
Masturbate without watching porn, seperate the two activities, watching porn is more indulging and habit forming which may have effect on your health especially social health. once you masturbate the urge to watch porn will be gone.
Indulge in sports or physical activities.

Hopefully I have provided you with some directions to work on, If you like my response please rate my answer

Thanking you,

Feel free to contact HCM

Hi,
You have false fear in your mind about masturbation and its sideeffects like weakness,body pain and other psychological problems.
Keep in mind that masturbation is just like other needs of body like hunger, thirst at this age.
It has no any side effect as you mentioned, it is purely psychological.
But keep this habit in control as every thing in excess is to be avoided.
Avoid seeing porn or sex videos.
Remain busy with your work and pass some time in sports, meeting your friends.
Ok and take care.
