Dear Informationneed,
Masturbation is fine within limits. You shouldn't do it in a compulsive way, or so often you get exhausted and can't give yourself sexually and emotionally to your partner.
If you find yourself going outside these guidelines, it's probably a way of handling anxiety, or difficulty in feeling comfortable with another person. If so, consult Dr. Grossbart over on the Compulsive Behaviors expert forum.
Otherwise, enjoy yourself in a balanced way!
Sincerely,
Dr. P.
