ok so im 15, female, and i've always heard of people talking about masturbation, and i'd never tried it. So one day, about a month ago, I tried it, and it felt SOOO good...but as I kept doing it, the feeling decreased and it actually started feeling wrong. I feel guilty because I consider myself a fairly good Cristian, and also because sometimes I'll do it even 3 times a day, but I don't wanna get addicted. Sometimes I feel so ashamed of myself because I'm basically having sex by myself, and I wonder if any of my friends do it (and dats when i really feel pathetic)... I just dont know what to do...Thanx for reading... (link)
I totally and completely understand what you're going through. I'm 14 now, I've been masturbating since I was 12, and I do it 4 times every day. About the feeling starting to go away- it's because you do it so frequently. If you orgasm every time, you will notice that the pleasure decreases if you do it more than once every 12 hours. When that happens, just don't do it for about 24 hours and the pleasure will come back.

About guilt- well, you should not feel guilty just because you are a christian. I am a very strong christian myself. There is nothing in the Bible that specifically says not to masturbate, nor is it implied. Although some people believe that self-pleasuring is "Committing a form of adultery in your heart" by "lusting" I completely disagree with them. I personally talked to God to seek out the answer- and I believe that He still accepts me as one of His followers even though I masturbate. Talk to Him yourself and He will provide more answers for you also.

Masturbation is a completely normal thing to do (as long as you're not publicizing it) and the pleasure you recieve from your own touch is completely natural and EVERYONE deserves to have this pleasure. It is also one of the body's natural ways to relieve stress.

Don't worry about getting addicted- I'm very addicted. It's like my drug.

Sometimes I feel ashamed too, because all the people I know are extremist christians and would totally be against it. But I just have to reassure myself that it's okay to masturbate. I'd be having hookups all the time now if I could- so you just have to consider the alternative to masturbation.

You must have a sexual outlet of some kind, so what's it going to be? Unsafe premarital sex with a partner? Or harmless self-pleasuring?

See, now masturbation seems less harmful doesn't it.
