Hello,
Masturbation and depression are not related. You are projecting masturbation as a cause for depression.
Depression can affect anyone and you can overcome it completely by medication and psychological means.
Masturbation is very normal and their are certain myths attached to it. Having sexual activity does the same thing. You can do as many times as you get pleasure. If you do it more you might have compulsive masturbation. Compulsive masturbation is when a person continues with frequent masturbation and neglecting other works like education, job or social obligations.

Hi,
Today, porn addiction is more prevalent than ever, due, in large part, to its accessibility. CBT, in particular, helps you to focus on triggers and reshape how you think about your addiction to using porn and is helpful in preventing relapse. CBT also helps you explore why you are driven to use porn and helps you change the thoughts behind your porn use into more positive or functional ones.
You are finding escape in porn or it could be some other condition.
Next Steps
consult a psychologist offline or online
