How To Overcome Addiction To Masturbation?

I have finally become aware, since the time I started masturbating at the age of 12 years old, and am now 29 years old, that it has caused me tremendous anger problems and low self-esteem, because it rules my life. Why do so many professionals claim that masturbation is safe, when I know from experience, that masturbation is only a trap that enslaves you into a world of sexual addiction that will dominate your life? What strategy can I apply to overcome my masturbation addiction? I heard of that abstinence contract of 90 days, will that solve my problem?
