  5. Ive been struggling with this bad habit of hand practice for a long time. Whenever I start feeling weak, I stop, but after I recover, I end up doing it again. I cant seem to control myself and the urges keep coming back, especially depending on the situation. Its exhausting, and I dont know what to do. Can you help me figure out how to stop this for good?

In such cases, medications like fluoxetine (Prozac) can be helpful in reducing compulsive behaviors. Additionally, counseling or therapy can also be beneficial in addressing the underlying reasons for this behavior and developing coping strategies. Do not start any medication without consulting a specialist first.
