Question

I'm struggling with controlling my urges to masturbate whenever I watch porn. It's like as soon as I start watching, I just can't help myself and end up masturbating. It makes me feel so bad about myself, and I end up punishing myself by doing it even more. How can I break out of this cycle?

Question

I'm curious about whether it's normal to masturbate regularly, like once a day or a few times a week. I've started doing it again after a few years of stopping, and while it doesn't mess with my daily routine or work, I do feel more relaxed afterward. Should I be worried about this habit or is it okay to continue as long as it's not affecting my life adversely?
