So i roughly got into masterbation when i was 16 i guess becasue of werid hormones. the reason i got into it so late was becasue im dumb and my family tre eis relgiouse to i thought things like that were taboo but now im like ok thats a thing.

ive grown a bit older now and i feel like im addicted or i have blue balls or somehting, i usally do it every other day atleast once a day, is that ok or am i doing things wrong. sense i feel like im adicted and im using masterbation as a way to cope with stuff, im just not sure now if there is a certain ponit where its unhealthy or what? any advice or tips by chance?

    Here’s the best way I’ve heard this answered: does it impact your life negatively in any way? And if so, would cutting down help that?

    Best way to test that is to stop or reduce how much you do it for a while. See if anything improves or changes. Note the difference. And then ease back into it.

    But shortly, no, once a day is not too much or too little. Everyone is different. So unless it’s keeping you from being sexually fulfilled or distracting you a lot or whatever, have at it.

    I don’t think once every other day is going to negativity effect you in any way. I have done more than that most of my adult life. It has never been a issue. That said, I have always had a high sex drive. It has slowed down a bit but even now I orgasm almost every day whether that is from sex or masturbating.

    I think it’s different for everybody. If I did it more than once a week, I felt like I’m was on drugs all the time

    If your dick isn’t raw, and your grades are good, you’re fine.
