How Has Self Abuse Affected Me Physically And Mentally ?

I remember a self abuse habit developed at the age of 12, when I unconsciously saw a male servant doing the same at home. I experienced an academic debacle from that time onwards. Can you enlighten me on how it effected me physically and mentally at that juncture?

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic forum
Self abuse/ masturbation does not affect one physically and mentally, unless one is so obsessed that he/she stops doing anything else besides this. But yes anything in excess is bad. Regarding academic performance - the only thing that can be said is, if you study you pass, if you waste time in other things , you know whats going to happen. Waste of time is the only harm , SELF ABUSE HABIT has done to you.

Distraction from sex related things and a conscious effort to put your energy to something productive like studies will help.
