Anxiety and ADHD or Masturbating Addiction?

Hi honey! Your brain is your biggest sex organ! IF you are stressed, your libido goes out the window, if you are relaxed and good with your body, it is up!

You need to know something - FACTS - Scientifically proven facts!

1. Babies masturbate (touch themselves) when they are in the womb!
2. Babies and toddlers touch themselves about 20 times a day - MORE if they are worried!
3. ALL mammals masturbate or touch themselves!
4. NO WHERE in the bible does it mention Masturbation is a Sin! It mentions coveting others, NOT yourself!
5. IF you have had a terrible experience - eg. being caught, being told it was evil etc, it will scar you for LIFE!
6. Masturbation and Ejaculation is even Healthy for you - and can show you if there is problems with your health!
7. When we are excited or worried the first thing ALL mammals go to is their groin! Take a luck at someone that is laughing REALLY hard!

I think you ARE manifesting that anxiety and "GUILT" through other things! I'm sure you have heard the words "Sexually frustrated" WELL this is actually true! Masturbation and self touching is the most calming thing for people who are stressed out! EVERY one has done it, IS doing it and WILL Continue doing it! The only people that don't have to practice for years and those people are monks and nuns! Ask a priest or seminary student if mastubration is mentioned in the bible? It ISN'T! So get used to your body again, when you feel stressed try it again, and KNOW you are NORMAL! And this ABNORMAL behaviour of NOT masturbating is having negative consequences on your overall physical and emotional/mental health! OK? Big Hugs and now "GO GET EM!!!!" ;-) o.O XD XD XD

Masturbation causes all of the problems you are experiencing

You have ADHD. This means there's a lack of noradrenaline and dopamine in your brain.
Masturbation releases dopamine and other chemicals into your brain, especially once you orgasm.
You are essentially required to masturbate in order to bring your brain into a relative chemical balance and feel normal, calm, and collected.
However, masturbation is a very ineffective method or restoring chemical balance in your brain – you need actual ADHD medicine to do that. Talk to your therapist and ask them to give you a stimulant prescription because stimulants is exactly what you need. Once you start on stimulants, masturbation will not be necessary, and you will naturally stop.

ADHD, Anxiety and Masturbation cause and effect.

When you have ADHD (any form) your brain chemicals are imbalanced. This description is simplified but basically due to the chemical imbalance most feel out of control or at least anxious in some way. People then tend to self medicate to "fix" these bad feelings by using or doing many different things including drugs, caffeine, sugar, dangerous activities, sex and masturbation.

In your case you are using masturbation to release dopamine and some other chemicals into your brain. This has a calming effect. This method works poorly but does sooth the brain and it feels good. However, "fixing" yourself this way does have many draw backs. The better option is to get AHDH meds.

I struggled with what I thought was a masturbation and porn addiction for 30 years. I could go from a day to a few weeks with out masturbating. Then I would give in. Sometimes using porn to help get hard. I couldn't understand why it was so difficult to stop and the "guilt" (even though I know everybody does it) was consuming me. A year ago I was diagnose with ADHD and started on a low dose of Adderall. It has been life changing. I had been using the dopamine hit from masturbating and climax to calm my brain. Adderall has removed this problem from my life. I still desire to have regular sex and/or masturbating, but there is no more compulsion. No more I need it right now. I don't need or want porn either. As I said life changing. I also have been able to release the shame I used to continually feel. I now take a stimulant every couple days to help "calm my brain" and it help minimize my ADD issues including masturbation.

Tell your doc...they will understand, They won't judge you. They want you to be happy and healthy. I know you feel shame from your actions. You need to let the shame go. You are not "bad" your are not "evil." It will help to talk to a doc and be honest with 1 person.

Sorry maybe too late but mu husband is away and I've been stressed and more than usual. The problem with this is it's much more difficult to orgasam with your man/woman. You've don't it so much you aren't breathless. Your fantasies are more. It will get harder..maybe bring others in on the fantasy.
