Hi Y and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can understand your anxiety.
Masturbation is normal for all males in your age.
Many do it several times a day.
It has absolutely no effect on your health, physical or mental.
You needn't stop it,as it's a normal practice, but you may reduce frequency.
Exercise upto 1 hour daily. Have timely, balanced meals daily.
Try to develop a hobby like sports,music,yoga,or meditation.
