Masterbation - Good or Bad? I think I may have some problems too.

I know this may seem like a wierd question but here goes.

(If its relevant) Im a big, 6 ft, 80kg lad who is not sure about masterbation. Ive heard that if you want to get beefed (and I really do want to get more so) then its a bad idea and ive heard that NOT masterbating is a bad idea and.. I am REALLY confused as to what to do. I dont want to get involved in some wierd threatening arguement with a 6 year old either so please dont judge me by the cover.

Also; Porn? What advice can you give about that.

Let me give you the whole story. I started masterbating when i was 11/12 I think, (apparently I am a late developer) everyone at school looks at porn while doing it and so do I. Until now have I become unsure about it. I used to be a real wanker, at least 5 a day (Couple of years back) but over the years the amount that I masterbate has gone down, and down and down.

Im trying to limit it to once every 2 days. So far i dont get morning wood from what I can remember But i'll give you an update on that. Is this good or bad?

Also, I remember a time when I myself just stopped masterbating for like 7 years and my body didnt even care but I did. It was horrible. I lost all interest in women, my penis became really shrivelled and cold and I felt miserable. That was a long time ago but still. Sometimes however, (Like on holiday) I feel better and less tired when I dont masterbate, but thats definetly mixed. Sometimes I feel more tired when I do, sometimes i dont.

Also, I noticed that a day after masterbating, my penis was a bit bigger than usual and it felt really expansive and all that. I used to masterbate daily regardless of how I felt but now I only do it when im horny. Keep in mind that im 16, look like a big ugly ******* and nobody wants to date me period. Its not that people dont like me or whatever, Its just that people have been put off by the fact that I am REALLY crazy and have some really evil thoughts (>:D) not sexual ones, but ones including violence. At one point my brain told me to kill someone but i was like "NO!" so it was like "Oh ok" XD.

Well anyway that was a bit off-topic. Speaking of which, when I dont masterbate, I feel really crazy and dont feel drawn to women sometimes, whilst when I do masterbate I have less energy and feel tired. Of course, either way I have sudden bursts of energy and feel really violent, but then thats me. Im more of a violent person than a sexually orientated one. I noticed as well that Im a lot less perverted since I started looking at porn less. When a girl with a tight *** walks by, I still look but for not as long and feel sort of guilty afterwards XD.

Im not trying to keep abstinence or something, I DO want to get laid eventually. Oh and please dont pull the bible out on me, I am aethiest.

Anyway, do you guys thing that I am sexually healthy and mentally healthy? Please give your honest opinion. Thanks for reading :D.

I think that you are seeking a release from alot of built up anger and frustration.  You know that masterbation is a huge release but it wears you out.  I suggest meditation and spiritual sexuality and explore the more compassionate side of life.  I can tell you are a very passionate person and you are not afraid to explore things of interest to the maxium so this should not be hard for you, then again it might be.  
  Try taking a breath, relax and get in touch with the things that make you happy.  And your body will respond to your mental state.
