I'm masterbting for 3year,now it is diverting my study so i want to quit it but i had constipation for 2,3 month but i had a belief,fear or anxiety that if i quit it while constipation it will affect my mental health,so i need help,if i quit or not?

Don't blame the self sex for constipation. Quit or don't, I do not find a link between the two or any reason one way or the other. You should look into some training in relaxation/stress reduction. While you learn they can assess your mental health.
