I'm really struggling with masturbation, it's become a daily thing. I'm doing it once every day and I just can't seem to control it. I've watched different videos for help, but nothing seems to work. Can you give me some advice on how to manage or reduce this habit?

To overcome daily masturbation, consider these steps:

  • Seek Professional Help: Consult a therapist or counselor to address underlying issues.
  • Identify Triggers: Be aware of situations or emotions that lead to masturbation.
  • Find Alternatives: Engage in physical activities, hobbies, or creative pursuits.
  • Practice Mindfulness: Use meditation or deep breathing to manage stress and emotions.
  • Set Goals and Track Progress: Use a journal or mobile app to monitor your progress.
  • Build a Support Network: Share your struggles with a trusted friend or family member.
  • Limit Exposure to Explicit Content: Avoid watching explicit videos or limit your screen time.

I'm really anxious right now... I attempted suicide last night, but it didn't work, and now I'm feeling even more depressed. It's mostly because of this sexual issue I'm dealing with, you know, erectile dysfunction. I've never told my parents about this, and I really can't imagine leaving them alone. What should I do?

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way, but I'm unable to provide the support you need. It's important to reach out to someone who can, like a mental health professional or a trusted person in your life. Please know that there are people who care about you and want to help you through this.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 59 and has been having trouble getting a good night's sleep. He was given Alprax 0.25 by the doctor, and he's supposed to take half of that, 0.125mg, each night for 10 days, then stop. He's only taken it for two days so far, but he's already thinking about quitting it now. Is it safe for him to just stop taking it? I'm really concerned about possible withdrawal symptoms like seizures. Can you give some advice on this?

Your dad can stop taking Alprax 0.125mg after just 2 days without significant risk of severe withdrawal symptoms like seizures, as the duration of use was short and the dose was low, but he may still experience mild symptoms like anxiety or insomnia, which should resolve on their own within a few days.
