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've got a really tough situation where I just can't fall asleep without masturbating. It feels like it's become a habit I can't shake, and it's starting to worry me. I've tried exercising a lot to tire myself out, hoping it'll help me sleep better, but it doesn't seem to work. Is there something I can do to change this pattern? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Establish a bedtime routine that promotes relaxation and better sleep. You can try incorporating activities such as reading a book, taking a warm bath, or practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation before bed. Additionally, you may benefit from speaking with a therapist or counselor to address any underlying issues that may be contributing to this habit. In some cases, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be helpful in changing behaviors and thought patterns.
