I'm talking about fapping of course.

I'm starting to wonder if doing it too much could be bad for me. I'm at 4-5 hours a day on average and it's seeming just a little unhealthy... maybe.

Depends on one's libido but since we're here on Fakuu! I gotta say. OFTEN IS NOT OFTEN ENOUGH!

I think it depends greatly on a person's age, but also the individual. I'd like to say there is no such thing as too much, but I doubt that is accurate. There can actually be heath concerns from fapping too much, least of all dry skin which can lead to cracks and bleeding - and I don't just mean your palm(s).

I think it's quite common to do it multiple times a day, everyday. It depends greatly on your sexual situation, or lack of thereof; and age like I said before.

I'm twenty-two and I usually masturbate once a day, every day. Sometimes more if I'm really bored and horny, and sometimes none if I'm busy and don't take the time to think about it.

While I agree with deftera mirage up there, I think that that might bit much for me. Of course I'm no expert but i think that if gets to the point where it interferes with your daily life, like you can't hold a job or you are always putting important things on hold to fap for 4-5 hours a day, then you might have some kind of sexual addiction and that might require some professional help. If it doesn't mess with your life and you can control it then it might be perfectly normal. Like I said, I'm no expert and this is simply my opinion.

Hope this helps. I found it very enlightening.

Spoiler:

It is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-esteem. Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other (lol, my case) – in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.

There is no scientific evidence of a causative relationship between masturbation and any form of mental disorder. Excessive or compulsive sexual behavior is generally understood to be a symptom rather than a cause.

Compulsive masturbation and other compulsive behaviors can be signs of an emotional problem. As such, that may need to be addressed by a mental health specialist. As with any "nervous habit", it is more helpful to consider the causes of compulsive behavior, rather than try to repress masturbation.

There is discussion between professionals and other interested parties as to the existence of, and validity of the concept of, sexual addiction. Compulsive masturbation is regarded as one of the symptoms of sexual addiction by proponents of that concept.

In 2003, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council Australia found that males masturbating frequently had a lower probability to develop prostate cancer. Men who averaged five or more ejaculations weekly in their 20s had significantly lower risk. However they could not show a direct causation. This benefit may be age related. A 2008 study concluded that frequent ejaculation between the ages of 20 and 40, may be correlated with higher risk of developing prostate cancer. On the other hand, frequent ejaculation in one's 50s was found to be correlated with a lower such risk in this same study.

The legal status of masturbation throughout history has varied from virtually unlimited acceptance to complete illegality. In a 17th century law code for the Puritan colony of New Haven, Connecticut "blasphemers, homosexuals and masturbators" were eligible for the death penalty. (LOL)

There is nothing really bad with it but it can become bad if it interferes with your daily life.

BTW, it also helps to reduce the risk of having a prostate cancer.

I'm doing it 2-3 times a day but it doesn't seem to effect me in anyway. It is like it helps me to reduce stress.

For guys, Once in 2 days is healthy

If you don't masturbate for a long period of time, it's very unhealthy for your testicles and it is known that you will cum while sleeping. Basically your balls don't want old sperms chilling inside

There was a test somewhere online to determine if you were fappan in a healthy manner. At the very least I recall 7 times a week being in the healthy zone. Unfortunately I'm more so in the 11-12/week zone.

Fapping shouldn't be very detrimental to your health, physically at least. Excluding the abrasive damage (Don't jerk too hard lol), smooth muscle fatigue, and minor epithelial cell damage in the ducts. All which are reversible, just give it a day or two rest.

It's the social and mental parts that you should be worried about. Don't get fired because you got caught fapping at work, or become so obsessed with it you quit your job to fap at home. :p

WebMD provides quite a few nice articles on said topic and some other related ones.

There are facilities and factories in China, Japan and Germany that actually support fapping at work as a "Stress-reliever". I remember seeing this on the discovery channel, Daily Planet. Apparently it helps to maintain worker productivity, and they supply the materials, most of which I can imagine are high quality, so you can squeeze one out quickly and then get back to work.

From Wikipedia - Masturbate

Along these lines, do it as often as you need to.

Masturbation is sometimes a primitive soothing technique, like self mutilation (albeit, less harmful). If activity rises during stressful times, or it is being used to self-treat depression (unconsciously), consider professional help.

When masturbation, or any other sexual compulsion, begins to have detrimental effects on your life outside the bedroom, it may be too much.
Detrimental effects:
-Not going to work/school (or, if you don't have a job, not looking for work)
-Forsaking time with significant people in your life (family, friends, partners, etc.)
-Delaying important tasks to a ruinous point
-Decreased effort in other areas of life
(^examples, think of a way this could be negatively effecting you)
These are hallmarks of addiction, and demand (not consider) treatment.

Spoiler:
I do it 2-6 times a day (usually 4), but have a job, friends, and can work towards personal goals. You may just also have a high libido.

For fellow male users.

There is a guide for us all to follow.

And that, good sirs, is when your dick starts to chafe.


You'll know when it does...

Another fun fact.

Cranking one off too often a day, without going to the bathroom (I.E taking a piss) at least once after each time, has the tendency to lead to urinary tract infections. Usually in your jimmy. And it burns like a motherfucker until the antibiotics you will get from your doctor start working.


Food for thought.
