Basically normal: For the most part masturbation is harmless for both genders; when one does this to the exclusion of developing a relationship with another, the individual could be harming oneself-isolation, loneliness, limited confidence; when this behavior continues over time, it would be best to consult with a mental health professional to help in redirecting one's energies.

Hey man!: This is normal. A majority of men your age are doing exactly the same thing. It's good for you, keeps the pressure down so you can focus on other things, and lets you learn about your mind and body in preparation for adult roles. It's not going to hurt you physically or "spiritually"; anyone telling you otherwise is misinformed. Talk with some sensible grown men -- maybe even dad.
