When I am depressed my sex driver lowers and I am much less likely to masturbate. That is why I voted B. If it has been a girl that has treated me badly in some way then it kills my sex drive completely until I stop hurting. I am not trying to be sexist or anything though. :)

One thing is certain: The more we get the humanly touch, the more "happy hormones" we produce and the more profound pleasure that we experience — whether with ourselves or others — the more we produce the same hormones, that is in antidepressant medication.

Not when I'm depressed but when I'm frustrated... It's a great way to blow off steam.

Yes I do. I feel much better after I orgasm. When I'm not wet I do it anyway.

I have been in the same boat... Masterbating as a means of comfort to relieve stress or to fall asleep. It works better than so many prescriptions.
Sometimes I'm not even in the mood and it's actually rather unromantic or nit really hot and more of a necessity.
Just keep doing what is best for you and don't feel guilty.
Oh and don't let anyone else make you feel guilty for getting off when you needed it or for getting off alone without your man... If you have a man... Its not a bad thing at all!

No. I don't get the urge to when I'm feeling down. Unless I happen to see boobs in a movie or a sex scene, but even then that doesn't always help me to be motivated to tug one out
