Masturbation and Paranoid Schizophrenia

I started masturbation since the year 1999 and that's when I was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Could masturbation have caused my schizophrenia diagnosis? For days when I stop masturbating, my voices are gone, headaches gone, anxiety lesser, urinate less frequently, excrete less frequently, people be more nice to me, dark circles under eyes reduce. I'm going to try and stop masturbating for years. Then see if I'm cured from paranoid schizophrenia. I was born British Pakistani Sunni Muslim. Sometimes I do pray and recite quran, watch Islamic channels, live masjid nabi prayers, live kaba prayers, give to charities, listen to nasheeds and naats.

Sorry if I've insulted anyone by assisting this gentleman.

As a previous mental health worker. A trauma has caused this mental health condition. If you recite the Qur'an, you are not possessed by a jinn, like most Asians assume.

The best form for you is reassess your realistic goals, self love in developing your self esteem and confidence with your key worker.
Counselling can help you, but with a psychologist possibly.
No CBT, as they'll just tell you to think outside the box. That can be deemed as patronising.

Balance in life. Too much of something is not good in nourishing out holistic needs.
You need to channel your energy into something positive like a hobby, learn or develop a new skill.
Possibly cooking, watching a documentary and socialising.
Going away like camping getting in touch with the nature reserves. For a brisk walk going to the gym. Looking after your physique.
Getting contact with 'Mind' charity and read upon your condition.
I'd advise you not to take medication unless there is a chemical imbalance which that needs reviewing under the mental health act by a professional.

I hope this helps inshallah

I do go walking outside, sometimes exercise at home, take injection once every 3 weeks at a clinic, have annual checkup - height, weight, blood pressure, give blood..im not over weight - weigh 87kg to 90kg and I'm 6'1 and half..women look at my face, and some smile at me, because I have beautified character.

Look I understand you do not mean to say things as in giving me your description and how girls find you attractive.
Looks are not everything it's what's inside.
Some people are blessed with both mashallah.

Therefore I am not going to engage may Allah protect you and keep you safe.
Ameen.

:thumbs_up

everybody has their own path.. and understanding of the world.

2:268 Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

you can really learn to appreciate quiet days.. may allah swt give us time to change and lead us to good character.

As salamu alaikum

Brother I have schizophrenia as well
I even got divorced because of my symptoms
Are so severe

What I learned is the more dhikr you do
And the more 4 quls of the Quran you recite
You get a cure...

Get a cup of water

Recite over it 8 times ayat Al Kursi
8 times surah fatihah
8 times surah falaq
8 times surah nas..
8 times surah ikhlas

Blow on water and drink...every morning and evening

Do this all your life for cure

Also remain in wudu...


Wa laikum as salam
