Addicted to jackin off

---

Do you think you can be addicted to jackin off?

I think you can. It's just like drugs. If it feels good, the person will keep doing it.

but like how do you know how many times a day its normal to beat off and when does it become an addiction

it can depend. Just try not to get too caught up in it.

You say that like its a bad thing...Seriously, unless you miss school, work, or sleep because you are compelled to do it all the time, or do it in public and get arrested, I don't think you can hurt yourself doing it a lot. I have a very high sex drive and do it at least once a day.

well yeah i assumed it took his whole life.

I sometimes wonder because I masterbate too much I know I have bad Ideals when I masterbate. I won't go there because I did earlier and not good responses trust me!! I have The desire to masterbate after sex It keeps me up all night see i'm up this late for a resaon. I have to be at work soon how many more times before I'm satisfied?? So far after sex Its been 4 times for the day its been 8 by masterbation alone. Any ideals I'm open for any bodies response....

I can assure you that you can be addicted to masturbation. As I shared on another board, I have a sexual addiction. Mostly porn. But when I stopped looking at porn, I found I was also addicted to masturbation. I don't want to take up too much room here when it may not concern most posters, but I would be more than happy to share what I've learned around this: How to know if you're addicted, how to begin dealing with the addiction, some excellant resources to look at...or just talking, listening and encouraging (which I found to be the most important piece).Anyway...if anyone's interested, they can send me a private message. I'd love to help. (I also just realized there is a whole section on afraidtoask dealing with addictions.)

When I was a young teen, I would jack off 4 maybe 6 times/day. It's natural, even now I jack off at least 5 times a week and i'm married and have sex about 4 times a week. Go nuts!
