Hello There.

I am a 18 year old male and i believe i may have a problem with "Masterbation Addiction" i read alot of the forums out there and there are mix reviews on what masterbation addiction is some say you are addicted if u masterbate more then once a week some say you are a addicted if u masterbate more the once a day.. for me it really depends on the day somedays i do it once and im done, other days i do it non stop one after another after another i think the most i reached was 12 times in one day. sometimes i find my self masterbating again right after i ejaculate.. like as soon as i orgasm 2-5 mins later im masterbating again... and for no know reason i find my self doing it when ever i feel bored?? is this normal heres a situation i found my self in just 2 hours ago i was playing an online game called guild wars it was fun for awhile and then it began to bore me so i exited out of the game and could not find anything else to do so i opened up the internet found some porn and just started masterbating.... after i was done i then realised that this could be a problem and i came right here to eHealth to look it up... i used to be a member here before and was asking about lung cancer which i found out i dont have anyways back to my problem.. Im embarassed to admit it but is it normal to masterbate in places that you know isnt a good place to masterbate... heres what i mean im in highschool and was in detention.... and we have this stupid room in the princables office that has glass windows all the teachers and princables were out for lunch and no one was there.... all of a sudden i found my hand rubbing my penis.. i wanted to stop but i couldnt... i felt ashamed after and spent of the rest of the day trying to figure out why i did it... Another situation was i was at a friends house and we were having a party... and there was booze involved but i wasnt drunk but many of my friends from school were and there were girls taking off there cloths and kissing each other... after the party was done we went to bed i was on the floor of my friends bedroom and there were people sleeping on the bed once again i found my self masterbating before i fell asleep i really think this is not normal and would like any information that could help me... Another thing i am wondering i am very Anti-Social i dont like meeting new people i get a feeling of being scared when there are people i dont know around me. i feel normal when im around friends and family and i drink alot because i dont seem to mind meeting new people when im under the infulence of the almighty booze.... thats the only time i meet new people my anti social problem is so bad that is has stopped me from getting my drivers license and finding a job.. and i am worried that i wont be able to find one... I am also very shy around girls.. and am still a virgin which i dont mind but i fear my shyness and unwillingness to talk or communicate with girls is gonna stop me from having a relationship... the farthest i have gone with a girl is fingerbanging her.. and i was in a situation where it was forced on me to do it or else i probally wouldnt of had the guts to do it... could these problems be related to me masterbating so much...? i would also like information to help me get rid of my anti social problem so i can continue with life.. and meet a girl i want to have a relationship but when ever the oppurtinity presents it self i always back down... Im also scared about asking girls out... i mean i know if they say no to me it doesnt mean i should give up but for me asking a girl out is a big deal and if i hear the words know i usually become really depressed... I am not ugly.. but im not that good looking either people usually dont make fun of me but in my past school years grades 1-9 i used to get teased alot called gay because i was to scared to talk to girls i want to but it just doesnt come out... this could also be a factor in my masterbating and anti-socialism??

This is probally a long read and i greatly appericate the help...

Thanks again.
