masturbated

am 26 years old and i masturbated when i was 18 continuously.

A year back i started feeling many problems due to this addiction and i started trying to quit masturbation but u know that addictions aren't easy to get rid of quickly. Finally almost after a year now i haven't done it for 30 days and i am trying to never do it again.

but the problem is that i am not recovering. I haven't noticed much improvement in the past 20 days. I just need to know whether this damage can be fixed by refraining from masturbation or not. Tell me about any specific diet that i need to take and any specific routine or rest schedule.



Following are the major symptoms:
- My pelvic muscles have become weak. I feel light pain in my groin, lower back, theighs etc.
- I feel tired and exhausted all the time.
- Weak erecrtions.
- no morning erections as i once used to have.
- The length and girth of my sexual organ has also been reduced when erect.
- loss of sensitivity in the sexual organ.
- pain in all my joints and neck.
- I feel unconfortable in my prostate region as well. feels like it is swollen or something.
- depression
- lack of ability to have a good night sleep.
- concentration and focus problems.
- loss of memory
- unable to perform any heavy physical or mental work


To take the first step i have already stopped masturbating completely

Kindly seggest me ways to recover as quickly as possible. I am not expecting that i will get recovered 100% in a week but there must be some way to speed up my recovery process. I am a student actually and it is so hard for me to see myself losing my grades just like that. when i quit masturbation i was expecting that i would be better in a month or so but it isn't exactly how i preseumed it to be. I am drained of a lot of energy and important nutrients i guess.

Please Please Please help me here. God bless you all for doing such a nice job and helping patients without reward.

Hello,
Although some people may relate masturbation to childhood mistakes, weakness, Dhat Syndrome, depression etc, but scientifically & medically it has been found to have no causative effect on any physical or mental disease.

Masturbation can never cause erectile dysfunction or impotency. The most common psychological problems can generally be related to: inhibited sexual desire, anxiety disorders, depression, mental fatigue, stress, guilt, relationship problems, and lack of interest in sex by partner etc. Another issue could be feeling of guilt about how often you masturbate could be the real issue for the onset of an erectile dysfunction. If you are experiencing negative emotions/thoughts related to the frequency of masturbation, masturbating less often may solve the problem.
I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.

i definately agree to the comment above as well. find a hobby that takes your mind off of masturbation. masturbating is perfectly normal and healthy but you can't over do it..for a diet i dont truly think there is one

best of luck to you!

masterbation one in a while is normal, however if done extensively it can become a problem.

Perhaps you can come up with a hobby or any other activity to keep your mind occupied.

It is easy to get back into a habbit so you could have some problem quitting this.

All the best.
