So... I'm 18 and have first masturbated about four years ago now. However it's not something that I occasionally do. This is not because I do not get aroused but more because I don't feel comfortable doing it. Anytime I try my body gets all tense and I get super uncomfortable so I give up quickly. Which leaves me feeling even more tense. Why can't I just masturbate and enjoy it like a normal person? Is there anything I could try? Plz helppp!

Hi stevie and welcome to Scarleteen.

Sometimes it can take awhile and some practice or work to figure out what is pleasurable for you personally. Here are some ideas to get you started with things to try and things to be aware of while you try:

I recommend that you give the above links some attention and come back here with questions, concerns or comments to talk about this further.
