Firstly, the idea of masturabation is not a taboo. It is very natural to masturabate, even if it is once in a day. Yet, if the frequency of masturabation is high, surely a psychologist will be there to support you. Any addiction which hinders everyday life and your hampers with your responsibilities must be considered a priority.
Next Steps
Consult a psychologist for detailed talk.
Happy to help

Hi,
Seeking help from a psychologist can be a constructive step if you're struggling with compulsive behaviours like masturbation and feel it's impacting your life. A mental health professional can provide you with strategies to understand the underlying issues and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Discussing your situation with a psychologist and having them communicate with your parents may also foster understanding and support at home, allowing your family to better assist you in your journey. However, itâs essential to approach the situation with openness and readiness to engage in therapy, as well as to consider how this may affect your relationship with your parents. Ultimately, professional guidance can help you navigate these challenges more effectively.
