Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

I’ve always dreamed of being a cuckold or kept in chastity. Just recently, my first device—the HT v2—arrived and I’m getting the hang of it. It was tough adjusting at first; sleeping with it felt hard. After locking myself up for 12 hours, my motivation dipped significantly. Unlocking wasn’t easy either since the key was secured in a box with a combination lock and helped by a time-locker mechanism. The period between hour 12 and hour 24 felt like torture, and I could only finally release after those full 24 hours. I feel that wearing a chastity device for just short periods or occasional play is pointless because my goal is to cut down or stop frequent masturbation… It’s hard to put into words how it felt while the chaste gear was on. It was both good and bad, awesome yet horrible—a blend of pleasure and discomfort. Should I keep learning and adapting to this lifestyle? Will it genuinely help reduce jerking off and improve my relationships?
