When I was younger I had normal behaviors regarding sexuality, like playing "doctor" with friends, and then experimenting with masturbation. I never thought it was a problem until recently, when time started to disappear, and grades started to fall.

What do I do now? I'm in counseling, on meds, and have just started to work on it, but my concern is that there isn't a replacement activity. Any ideas??

Your post contains an internal contradiction:

1) you are saying that time has started to disappear, and, as a result, grades have started to fall. That means, if I am able to read between the lines right, that you spend so much time masturbating that you do not have enough time for school work

2) you are saying that there isn't a replacement activity

From (1), it follows that you want to shorten the time spent masturbating in order to do school work during the time you would get from not masturbating, and that, you hope, would lead to better grades. If that is the case, you do not need a replacement activity - your activity should be school work.

From (2), it follows that if you are not masturbating, you have extra time to kill and do not know what to do with the extra time, so you are looking for, and not finding, a "replacement activity".

It is either (1) or (2), to the best of my understanding.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
