Hello Steemians,
As is customary on Thursdays, today we are going to delve into another sex health topic. This is a topic that most people are very familiar with. The aim of this expose is to determine whether it is healthy or harmful to your wellbeing. Let's go...
WHAT IS MASTURBATION?
Masturbation is the sexual stimulation of one's own genitals for sexual arousal or other sexual pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm. The stimulation may involve hands, fingers, everyday objects, sex toys such as vibrators, or combinations of these.
ARE THERE BENEFITS?
Masturbation in other words could be described as self-pleasuring. Instead of doing it with the opposite sex, a masturbator would rather satisfy his/her sexual urges by his/her self. Therefore the gratification is instant. No need for expensive dinners and candle lights right?
Also masturbators master the art and science of doing this. They thus have understood how to find their own cloud 9 by themselves. The benefit may be repeated orgasms at your whim.
With the advent of STDs, a person who seeks pleasure only from himself would not infect himself. Well, except he/she had it previously and probably used an infected object of pleasure.
THE REAL DANGERS...
Deriving pleasure only from yourself may feel good until you realize just how lonely you are. Masturbators are known to be socially awkward. Most times they escape social situations just to have an alone time.
Then it gets to the level of addiction. Just like any other form of addiction, masturbators would spend more time fulfilling their addictions than with their job, school, family and friends. Slowly but surely they depreciate in value.
The rise of internet pornographic videos and online dirty magazines all contribute to fuel this addiction. Masturbation can literally eat your brain and time up.
Guilt is the psychological state that nails a chronic masturbator to the coffin. They feel dirty and unworthy to interact with other people.
The grand finale of the harmfulness involves your performance in bedroom affairs when you finally meet the real deal.
Chronic masturbators have been known to perform poorly sexually. Premature ejaculation and even erectile dysfunction can follow a lifetime of addiction to masturbation.
MANAGING THE ADDICTION!
The first step is realize that its an addiction just like smoking etcz.
Accept that its harming your social life, business, work, school and relationships.
Prepare your mind towards changing.
A very vital step of achieving this is to get yourself gainfully engaged with whatever activities you love
Find a sports to learn. Get into a new career. Acquire new skills. Get busy.
DO NOT STAY ALONE & IDLE!
Discard your triggers like pornographic materials. Delete videos and images.
Change your friends into those that inspire you towards your goals.
NO MORE SAME OLD SAME OLD!
Remember: only you can stop that addiction by yourself. Take charge and change your life!
GOODLUCK!
