Masturbation Guilt: I recommend you engage in individual therapy with a psychologist to explore why self-pleasuring (masturbation) causes strong feeling of guilt. If you engage in sex with a partner, the energy you expend during an orgasm is similar to the body energy you are expending during masturbation. If you aren't engaging in sex, you may have internalized negative thoughts as a child that need exploring.
