Hello,
Excessive masturbation is harmful to your mind because of your own negative thinking about it. For body, excessive masturbation can cause tiredness and thereby lazyness and excess sleepiness.
You should not masturbate more than thrice a week. Therefore I suggest consulting psychologist for masturbation de-addiction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr. K. V. Anand
