    need some help with an addiction

    I have a problem. I have try to stop but it only last a few days than im back at it. I masturbate and look at stuff online. not porn but anything with women on it. Im happliy married and would never cheat on my wife. When Im home from work and my wife is not around I do not look at stuff or masturbate. the times that i do it is at work. I work where i have to set at a desk for 12 hours. either 0630 in th emorning to 630 at night or 630 at night to 630 in the morning. i cannot access porn at this computer or any site that is close to it  but i go to sites like maxim, google picturs of movie actress and stuff. when i do that i jack off to that stuff. how you may ask if im at work. i work where i cannot leave my desk  area unless i go to the bathroom or step outside just for a min. i have to be near the phone to hear it if it rings or to press a button to let people in the building. when its the night when no one is here or the weekend thats when it get bad. sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. i work 3 days on 3 days off than 3 nights than 3 days off than all over again. what can i do to stop myself if doing this. i love my wife and would never cheat on her. I need some help to control myself. what can i do????????

    Re: need some help with an addiction

    First, I'd stop referring to this as an addiction.

    How long has this been going on?

    What all have you tried to not do this?

    Does it occur other times when you are not at work?

    What is your spiritual life like?
