It has been established that the neurotransmitter dopamine is implicated in motivation. Dopamine is released (particularly in areas such as the nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex) by rewarding experiences such as food, sex, drugs, and neutral stimuli that become associated with them.
>Mechanism of Dopamine Desensitization
Human studies as well as rat studies show that the dopamine receptors are downregulated in subjects addicted to drugs and food. This downregulation occurs as a result of sharp increases in dopamine levels when dopamine repeatedly floods the brain during addictive behavior. Here, over-stimulation decreases the number of receptors, and the remaining receptors become less sensitive to dopamine. This process is called desensitization.
>Link Between Masturbation and Decrease in Dopamine Sensitivity
Masturbation is the sexual stimulation of the genitals, usually to the point of orgasm. During masturbation, dopamine floods the brain in a manner similar to sex, drugs, or food. Therefore, it is within the realm of possibility that repeated masturbation at high frequency can also result in a decrease in the amount of dopamine receptors (particularly D2) in the brain. In other words, frequent masturbation *could*, in theory, make your brain less sensitive to dopamine.
>Link Between Decrease in Dopamine Receptor Density and Motivation / Depression
If the brain is desensitized to big rewards (sex, food, drugs), then smaller, more abstract rewards would become even less rewarding to the brain (For example: decrease in pleasure from academic success, leading to less ability and motivation to focus on that subject). Indeed, many addicts report feeling less pleasure from everyday activities. Could masturbation, which is encouraged as healthy and good in our society, actually be contributing to decrease in dopamine receptors and thus be promoting depression and lack of motivation?

>The problem with frequent masturbation is that it stimulate parasympathetic nervous functions excessively, resulting in the over production of sex hormones and neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin. In the normal midbrain, there is a balance between dopamine and Acetylcholine. Too much of dopamine and it tilts the balance towards low Acetylcholine and vice versa.
>Why this happens from the research i have done is because when you masturbate your dopamine levels go trough the roof (and if you edge oh boy they go trough the roof)
…
>high levels of dopamine causes high activation of Acetylcholinesterase. Acetylcholinesterase's job is to breakdown the Acetylcholine into its two component parts, acetic acid and choline.
>So why is this a problem you may ask, well this leads to Acetylcholine Defiency. Symptoms of Acetylcholine Defiency:
1.Brain Fog (You frequently can’t find the right word or
difficulty remembering names and faces after meeting people. etc.)
2. Severe anxiety and memory loss.
3. Trouble understanding spoken or written language
4. You often misplace everyday items like keys, phone, and glasses.
5. You know or suspect that you’ve got ADHD.
6. Dry eyes and/or dry mouth.
7. Prefer to do things alone than in groups / social withdrawal.
8. Slow or confused thinking .
9. Feel despair and lack joy.
10. You crave fatty foods (Your brain is craving for Choline).
>And what i have experienced and read on these forums, those symptoms match perfectly to the symptoms of excessive masturbation.
