I'm ashamed (and kinda scared) to say this, but I wanted to get this off from my chest.

I've been depressed for a long time, and I am also a victim of CSA, so maybe it has something to do with this.

Since I have memory, I've known about masturbation, and I've been doing it as a way to cope with stress and probably the trauma of the sexualization I suffered when I was a child, but I just now realized that I'm doing it as a way to feel something else apart of the emptiness on my chest.

I really want to know if this is somewhat common.
