[|Human|] Hi sir, hope that asking for your advice would be free of charge due to fact that I live in another country far from your location.First, please forgive me for the lack of my English and improper way of writing because I am not a native and started learning English for almost two years.I am reza, 33 years old, have been living alone in the capital of Iran for 15 years, far from my (economically poor) family. My appearance and being away from social events have made me to suffer from loneliness and I feel so hopeless, energy-less and stressful before any important event or exam that everyone can see it from my face. I went to therapists three time years age but actually they werent effective at all. My sexual situation (masturbation frequency) was why I referred to them and the problem stay remain and I have lived with that for almost 8 years. I think this is why I cant be strong at the pressure moments, meanwhile being away from girls in my life maybe considered to bee momen
[|AI|]  Hi there ~ I understand your concern and am glad you bring this up on a public forum.  You are dealing with depression, and it seems to me that you have also had a rough childhood which might fit you into what we call as dysthymia.  I hope you can see a psychiatrist in your country.  I also feel that you might benefit from neuropsychiatric medications.  Masturbation is a normal process and the urge to do so is physiological though it may be restricted in certain communities due to religious reasons.  However, this is the least of your concerns.  I also think that you may need to see a psychiatrist due to the fact that you may have some problems with socialization and a therapist may be helpful in having you deal with the same.  I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
