Masturbation became a mechanism for patients to relieve stress and pressure in their lives. Gradually, patients abused masturbation more and more frequently (sometimes up to 10 times a day).

After the initial phase, the client rebuilt their lifestyle and positive thinking, rediscovering their self-worth. The client felt more comfortable with themselves, happier, and more active in reducing negative thoughts. Symptoms such as insomnia, irritability, excessive masturbation, guilt, and suicidal thoughts significantly decreased. The client also practiced role-playing stressful situations and how they would respond to them.

The trust and collaboration between the family and the psychologist allows the psychologist to delve into and explore the hidden aspects of the client's psyche. This enables them to develop a treatment plan that is not only tailored to the client but also integrates various support resources effectively.
