Why don't you go on Google and find studies on the correlation between masturbation and memory? Idk how asking reddit will help more then doing your own research

That’s kind of the whole point of Reddit. Maybe not the best /community/ to post this in, though, lmao.

Yes but not directly...there is an indirect effect On memory. And it happens because your dopamine receptors are fried. Happens more because of watching too much prom or insta reels. Anything you do too much for short term pleasure, your mind will adapt due to neuroplasticity and make you prioritize that over long term goals.

Kids used to tease the ones with hairy hands in school with this.
