I'm really concerned because I've been masturbating every day and I'm not sure how to stop. Could this be affecting my sex life, and do I need any medication to help with this? What can I do to stop masturbating so much?

Masturbating daily is generally not harmful unless it interferes with your daily life, relationships, or well-being. To reduce or stop, try engaging in healthier habits like physical exercise, focusing on hobbies, or practicing mindfulness. If it's causing distress, consulting a healthcare professional can help to explore further options or counseling for behavior management.

I'm feeling super confused and kind of worried about masturbation. I usually do it once a month, but afterward, I end up feeling really down, tense, and sort of hopeless. It also messes with my motivation for studying and work. I've heard so many mixed opinions about whether masturbation can be bad for mental, sexual, or physical health. Some doctors say it's perfectly fine, while others call it a harmful habit. Can it really affect someone this much, or is it no big deal? I'd love to understand this better.

I've been struggling with panic attacks, heartburn, and feeling suffocated for the past couple of years. I've had all the tests done, and everything came back normal, but these issues are still there. I've been taking melzap and SomprazD40 for a while now, but I'm not sure if they're helping much. Can you suggest any other ways or treatments that might help me with these problems?
