Last updated on September 5, 2020

Question:

Is it okay if I masturbate when I’m stressed out? Like really badly stressed out. You know the frustrating situation I’m in with my life falling apart in front of me. Is it play if I do it just to relieve myself of the stress?

Answer:

There are better ways to handle stress. Take a long walk or exercise. This will give your body something to do with the pent up energy or emotions. Also, find someone to talk to about your problems. Then you are productively finding a resolution to your stress instead of just distracting yourself from it.
