Give yourself: Break. You are human. Now, if you never leave your house b/c you do it all day, that's a problem. To relieve sexual urges by masturbation is not a sin, it's a sign of a healthy adult. If it is a compulsive form of anxiety relief and causing problems a low dose drug from the ssri class should help. Escitalopram 5 mg, sertraline 25 mg, Paxil (paroxetine) 10 mg; if you have a real problem, go that route.
