Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
I understand that you are worried about your masturbatory habit. Now, masturbation is considered as a normal part of human sexual behaviour and it is common in teenage.
However, if it becomes uncontrollable or distress-causing, as in your case, the person may need help. I would suggest that you consult a psychiatrist in your place for a detailed evaluation and for further management of your problem. Often psychological therapy or counselling may be beneficial in controlling such thoughts and habits.
Wish you all the best.
Regards, Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar Consultant Psychiatrist
