Do you have an alternate outlet for your sexual energy?  Or are you pursuing another outlet?

[moonwolf]

keeping near people i guess ,i feel the will to masturbate when alone.

You have a sex drive.  The idea behind not masturbating is that you go have sex with real people and use the build up of sexual energy to motive you to take risks or do things you might not otherwise be willing to do.  It's not "just stop masturbating and become asexual".

That's a very tricky one, but well worth it in my opinion.

First you should set a proper goal. Leo has a very good video about that. You actually have to write it down. Otherwise it's just a desire. Also don't focus on quitting masturbation. Focus on a new life vision and write it down. Go out and socialize. Maybe find a new hobby. Use that energy and time you gain. And whenever you relapse ask yourself what was the trigger and try to get rid of it.

Here are some helpful links:

Leo's video about goal setting

Here are two links about quiting porn and masturbation, but you can still gain a lot by reading:

From my personal experience hiking has been the best. Every time I get the urge I jump in my car and climb a mountain. I leave near a lot of hikes so it's easy for me hahah

There are lot of people who can't chanel their sexual energy and they just waste it foolishly by masturbating

Here there is some techniques which is discussed by osho in his books one must follow this to chanel his energy and quit masturbation.

Technique : Close the eyes and look upwards. So our eyes are closed but inwardly looking upwards. This is the same state which happens in deep meditation also. In deep meditation our eyes look upwards towards the 3rd eye. Now, after closing the eyes, stop the breath and keep on looking upwards. Stop the breath and don’t inhale breath as long as you feel comfortable. No need to force or exert too much. Stop the breath in comfortable limit. Idea is not to force any kind of exertion but just to stop the breath as long as we can do it comfortably. After few seconds lets say 5-6 seconds, Inhale the breath but don’t exhale. With closed eyes, stop the breath as long as you are comfortable. This is one round of inhalation and exhalation.

Try this 4-5 rounds and sexuality will no longer be there. The energy always needs a door for expression. If we close one door then it finds some other door. Here, we have tried to channelize it towards upper chakras. Key for meditation is to always channelize the energy for higher chakras

Addictions plague many people today, whether addiction to food, sex, drugs, alcohol, smoking, spending, masturbation, porn, etc.  Lasting freedom comes from identifying the root that needs to be pulled out. Getting to the root of the addiction is the key to bringing a person lasting genuine freedom.

The book ‘Breaking free from masturbation’ by Elisha Rasimilo can help you start your journey  to freedom.

If you can cum within a minute, and you train yourself to do so, is it still considered a waste of energy?  

I would think one would feel more re-energized after a session if one is feeling stressed

I don't know about this

I might try to do the minute man thing, heh

Having a wife and being faithful is a hard job, and this is how I handle it

As long as you aren't watching porn while you're doing it, I don't see why this matters.

Like the above folks already said: if you aren't getting steady ass, then your hand is your outlet.  Just don't watch porn.  That's the best thing right there. I gave up porn a few months ago & feel way better afterwards.
