Start by Taking Porn Out of Reach
For most people, porn is what keeps the habit going. QuitPorn blocks porn on your iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows and Mac until the date you choose, and nobody can end it early. With porn gone, the habit loses its strongest pull. See plans and pricing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I am addicted to masturbation?
Warning signs include doing it when you did not plan to, trying to cut down and going back, using it to cope with stress or low mood, and it making you late, tired or less interested in people. The more of these fit, the higher your score on this test.
Is this masturbation addiction test anonymous?
Yes. There is no signup and no email. Your answers stay in your browser and are never sent to us.
How is the test scored?
Ten statements, each answered from Never (0) to Almost always (4), for a total of 0 to 40. A score of 0 to 8 is low, 9 to 16 mild, 17 to 24 moderate, 25 to 32 high, and 33 to 40 very high.
Is masturbation addiction real?
Doctors use the term compulsive sexual behaviour for sexual habits that a person cannot control and that keep going despite harm. A high score here means your answers match that pattern. It is a strong signal, not a diagnosis.
Why does the test ask about porn?
For most people the two go together, and porn makes the habit much harder to break. Cutting out porn is usually the first and biggest step.
What should I do if my score is high?
Take porn out of reach first, then plan for the times the urge is strongest, like late nights or stressful days. If it is hurting your mood or relationships, talk to a doctor or therapist as well.
