Question

Im dealing with depression and I'm really struggling because I'm stuck in this cycle of masturbating about 45 times a day. It makes me feel awful, and I just can't seem to stop. I'm in 12th grade, preparing for my board exams in science but my focus is shot, and I feel exhausted and sleepy all the time, which isnt helping at all at this critical stage. I know I need help, but I'm not sure how to approach my parents about it. What kind of doctor should I be reaching out to for this situation?

I'm Nikhil Gunjal from Ghatkopar, Mumbai, and I'm really worried because for the past two years, I've been dealing with what I believe are effects of black magic. It feels like someone is harming my body, and it's really frustrating not being able to identify who might be doing this. I'm convinced it's something external causing harm and even have proof to support my concerns. Can you offer any guidance or suggest what steps I can take to address this situation?
