I am a 57 year old female so I have been around a long time and have learned a lot during that time. Rest assured there is absolutely no reason for you to feel guilty about masturbating it is perfectly normal for both males and females to masturbate. People may not talk about it but masturbation is a natural part of being a sexual being - just don't do it in public!
Personally I think given your age and that you are without a sexual partner masturbation is perfectly normal and nothing to be ashamed of but since you feel that you want to stop masturbating take a look at the article below to see if any of the information here might help you.

Masturbation is a normal and healthy activity, and indeed is the way most adolescents discover what makes them feel good before they embark on an adult sexual relationship. In some cases however, it can become an obsession. And that is not healthy. Medically masturbation is not a physical disease. Problems arise when it starts interfering in our lives as a stress, guilt or a thorn in our relationships.
Nobody is as important than you are.! I told someone that I loved deeply goodbye, because the hurt that I had , had to stop. and I had enough repect for myself, to put myself first. It still hurt sometimes, but I didn't let myself be used and neglected because of their problems. You will never be happy with anyone else,until you are happy with yourself.
