Behaviour addiction(masturbation)
The masturbation habit started around 8-9years back and only recently I realised that I have not lived freely ever since.I feel like I lost valuable opportunities because I couldn't control my urges.my mind was filled with such thoughts.I believe I could do a lot more if only somehow I can learn how to control this.I have spent some time finding information about this and come across that a therapist can help me to avoid relapsed and be free once and for all.I could really use some genuine advice and help.

Hi. I appreciate you talking about your concern. Find out the triggers, when does this happen, find the emotions when the triger happens . To find out the triggers, make a chart and note down for consecutive 7 days, at what time you feel , at which particular place, and which emotion you feel at that time and after the release which emotion you feel? This will help you to know and find out better. Once you find out the triggers or if not, then you can meet a psychologist for better understanding and a treatment plan to break your habit.

Masturbation is a very healthy form of sexual outlet, do not feel guilty about it. Nearly 99% of men and more than 60% of women masturbate. It starts from adolescence and goes on in some people even till death. The pleasure (orgasm) from masturbation is said to be unique from sexual intercourse. In men, most of the liquid contains only water and some fructose and hormones. Hence it does not drain your energy. Many equate masturbation/ seminal fluid loss to lack of energy, impotency and so on. Many quacks, religious heads and pseudo healers also propagate the idea that masturbation is a disorder/ and wrongful behavior and instill fear on the mind of innocent men and women (we can see posters in train and bus stand, offering help for this behavior). Consult a psychiatrist, if you have excessive masturbation guilt or compulsive masturbation. Compulsive masturbation is when a person continues with frequent masturbation neglecting his/ her other work like education, job or social obligations. In fact masturbation reduces the sexual tension and helps focus on task at hand better.
