I am afraid that I have a problem with excessive masturbation and I was wondering if anyone knew any ways to cut back on it. Should I stop totally or what...

Firstly, there is nothing wrong with masturbation. Someone else said it in their post, but I'll repeat it - you WILL NOT go blind, nothing will fall off and it is NOT evil. Frankly it's a natural and lucky pleasure of being human.
I'm probably going to regret typing this in net-space, but hey no one knows me in real life! :D
I'm curious as to what you mean by excessive. I'll share with you a bit about me; I'm a perfectly normal woman in her twenties, steady job, good relationship with friends and family (so no, there's nothing weird about me). When I get into that groove (or horny, whatever) I will masturbate up to 3-4 times a day, sometimes spread out over the day or all at around the same time.
And when I'm not in that mood, I may not do anything for a week or couple of weeks or I'll only masturbate once a day a couple times a week.
I would only be concerned if you were doing it so much that you've become oversensitized, you're hurting and you still can't help yourself. If it's at that point, then see a doctor.

masturbation is a part of life and the sooner we stop looking at it as taboo the better off we will be. believe it or not everyone born to this world has masturbated at one point or another. if you feel u need to cut back then do it. but theres nothing wrong with doing it.

That depends on how much you actually do it....
If you do it more than twice a day, you do have a problem, in which case I advise the following.
Whenever you get the 'urge', do something constructive with your time. Walk, read, anything!!! And don't think about it.
If you do it once a day, its a bit much, but don't worry. Unless you really want to cut back, then do as I advised above.
Any less, and your fine!!!!
Good luck!!!!!!

Yeah...sign of instant gratification. unfortunately, you are also high risk for other addictions like Coke etc. Unfortunately there is no MA group to go to. So, anything to break the Obsessive compulsive disorder. YOU may need meds before your knob falls off. If it is interfering with relationships or has other signs of dysfuction, you may really need some help.

there is nothing wrong with masturbation, in general.. people need to relieve stress, just don't let it take over your life.. if you are out somewhere, and you can't wait to get home to "polish one off", it's probably a bad sign.
oh, and no, it is NOT harmful. i do it every now and then, and am married, sometimes, you just don't want to go through the whole foreplay thing to have some fun

It will mess up your physiology. For the facts see this website:

Over masturbation takes away important physical elements from our body. You are training your body to ejaculate faster as well. Kiss your virility goodbye if you want to keep doing it. Don't overdo it or you will end up like this guy:

masturbation is normal in humans. you should do what feels normal to you. don't let fear or guilt or what anyone else says dictate what you can or can't do. as long as you don't do it in front of other people, then it doesn't concern them. girls do it just like guys do....i hate when people say it's a sickness or you'll go blind or something like that. you should keep on rockin and enjoy life to the fullest...thas what you should do.

Don't think perverted stuff and don't watch as much porn. Do it like maybe 3 times a week. That or get a girl and have sex instead.

Excessive?
I think we all have highs and lows when it comes to mastrubation (no pun intended, i swear). If you tell yourself you can't, you will just want to do it more. Relax.
