Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Dear service user,
thank you for contacting Healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Masturbation is akin to sexual intercourse. What penis does in vagina during sexual intercourse, same it does during masturbation in your folded palm.
It is harmless. It has no direct effect on your sleep cycle.
So no need to get worried about it.
There are number of common causes of difficulty in sleep.
Short course of medicines with sleep hygiene habits helps. I recommend to see a psychiatrist if your problem persists.
I hope, this will help you.
If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Wish you good health.
