View allI'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.

I've been thinking a lot about rabies and how it works. I read that rabies has a long incubation period and that you're generally safe as long as you get vaccinated before showing any symptoms. Is it true that as long as you get vaccinated before the virus reaches the brain, you're okay? Here's what's on my mind: in 2001-2002, I got a minor dog bite, but I didn't get a vaccine back then. Years later, around 2008, I started worrying and ended up getting vaccinated, like 17 shots between 2008-2012. But I can't shake off the fear from that dog bite years ago. It just won't leave my mind, and I'm scared I might develop rabies in the future. Is that a possibility? What should I do to protect myself? If there's no risk, I really need reassurance because living with this fear is tough. Can you help me figure this out?
Anti rabies vaccination is given at 0,3,7,14 days interval.The wound is cleaned thoroughly with soap water and povidine iodine .
