Question 1

I've been having this breathlessness issue for a while now. It's strange because I don't have asthma and my blood pressure is normal. The doctor did some kind of small lung test using this tiny machine on my finger, and that came out normal too. But I keep getting this really frequent cough and have problems with acidity. Could they be related? I'm wondering if this is something serious. What's your take on it?

Accepted Answer

While your symptoms might not necessarily indicate something major, it's important to address them proactively. GERD, post-nasal drip, or even stress could be contributing to your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation to rule out other conditions

Question 2

I've been struggling with masturbation since last year and I'm really wanting to stop. It feels like it's getting worse. Can you help me with some advice or tips on how to quit?

Accepted Answer

Understand the Root Cause:
Reflect on why you're engaging in this behavior. Is it due to stress, boredom, loneliness, or another underlying issue? Understanding the triggers can help you address them more effectively.
Set Healthy Boundaries:
Gradually reduce the frequency of the behavior. If you're engaging in it daily, you could try reducing it to every other day, then every few days, until you reach a frequency you're comfortable with.
Develop other healthy habits: Engage in activities like exercise, hobbies, reading, or socializing to redirect your energy into positive outlets.
Mindful Sex Practices: Practicing mindfulness during sexual activity can help you be more present with your partner, enhance emotional connection, and improve overall satisfaction.
Incorporate Stress-Relieving Practices:
Exercise: Regular physical activity can reduce stress, anxiety, and excess energy, which might otherwise contribute to habitual behaviors.
Meditation or Breathing Exercises: These can help you manage urges and develop a greater sense of self-control.
Therapy: If you're feeling guilty or conflicted about your sexual habits, speaking with a therapist or counselor (especially one experienced in sexual health or addiction) can provide valuable support.
Seek Professional Help: If you're finding it difficult to reduce or control the behavior, a sexual health professional, therapist, or counselor can provide specific strategies and support."
