Read, relax, see Dr.: Read this link: http://tinyurl.com/kdefxln and relax. If you still believe your adrenals are not functioning well, see your doctor for an exam. There are many causes of fatigue more likely than this - I'll propose that CBT therapy can help w/ your anxiety and depression releasing lots of wasted energy for healthy use. There is no reason to think that any amount of safe masturbation will harm you
