Am I doing anything right?

So I'm 18, virgin, everything is alright down there.... I'm trying to masturbate, I'll either watch a video or sex chat with my boyfriend while I do it. I've use my hands, a toothbrush (the end of one with ridges) that's about it. There's cum but I don't think i have ever climaxed or had an orgasm. I haven't felt anything the way people say it is. What's wrong? Am I doing this right?
