Hello everyone, I have been reading on this forum on and off for some time and thought I would finally join. I am from the US and married to my wife of 10 years. I have long been interested in male chastity, admittedly I first discovered it as a fetish and for a long time had no idea there were many people using chastity devices outside of that sort of thing. I have long had a masturbation problem and as a Christian I hold firmly that it is a sin. Regardless, I have found no way to stop myself even when my wife and I were more active intimately. Over the years I have tried many devices with my wife holding the key but they have all failed either because they were insecure or uncomfortable. I was ready to give up when I finally decided try out the one option I hadn't due to price, Neosteel. I am now locked in a Neosteel Fun and it is a great belt, though the process of adapting to it has been challenging at best.
Due to many medical issues my wife has had, at this point she only keeps an emergency key and I otherwise do my own self-locking using a timer that prevents my access to the key for a period of time. I have found this works really well, I set it for 24 hours to unlock in the morning because that's when I'm usually able to make a good decision and put myself back in my belt for another 24 hours after a quick shower. At this point I am just trying to make myself go one more day and keeping it as a daily routine so that I can build a good habit.
I find it encouraging that there is a growing number of people using chastity belts for reasons not related to fetish, while I can see why fetish can be "fun" they start and stop during a set time, but wearing a chastity belt continues 24/7. It really helps my mental state when I am not burning up my energy looking at material online and "relieving" myself and I wish I could had my Neosteel 10 years sooner or even longer ago when I was still living at home. I hope that one day my wife can take a more active role as my keyholder, but for know I am certain that I need to do this on my own to get my bad habits under control. I definitely experience times where I am extremely desperate and wish I had not locked my belt on but I am always thankful later that my belt did it's job and that keeps me making a good decision the next day.
