I'm 24 and I've been masturbating since I was 18. I usually do it at least once a day, sometimes twice, and I've stayed healthy so far. But I'm starting to worry it might start affecting my life negatively, since I'm having trouble concentrating on other things. Is too much masturbation bad for me? And if so, how do I stop?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Excessive masturbation, defined as interfering with daily life, relationships, or work, can negatively impact mental and emotional well-being, despite physical health remaining unaffected; to stop or reduce masturbation frequency, consider these strategies: set realistic goals, identify triggers, practice self-care, engage in physical activity, seek professional help from a therapist or counselor, and consider mindfulness techniques, such as meditation or deep breathing exercises, to manage stress and urges.
