Hi there, I am not able to stop my masturbation habit. I am doing 5 or 6 times in a week. And when I did it I feel regretted. I feel very upset after masturbation because of this I feel that I can't focus on anything, even on my studies. I just want to get rid of it. Please help me with the proper solution. Thank you!

Dear lybrate-user, I would like to tell you that masturbation is considered an absolutely normal behavior and part of every person's sexual explorations- be it male or female. Your mentioned frequency of masturbation appears to be totally normal. However, the fact that it is affecting your focus from other things in life and your overwhelming guilt points towards something that needs to be addressed. It is not uncommon to have such feelings about masturbation and it may or may not be- lets say a thinking aberration in simple terms thats treatable easily and is quite common. Would need more details to diagnose further. Suggest you setup a brief talk with me in privacy over Lybrate so that I can understand your problem better and in detail OR advise you see a psychiatrist in person in your city. Wish you the very best.
