I don't think the Bible talks about masturbation being a sin. But what comes along with masturbation like lustful thoughts is a sin. And I don't think people can masturbate without such thoughts, which kinda makes masturbation sinful after all. Lustful thoughts leads to sexual immorality and that's probably what Xioneks was talking about.
Why do u think its terrible for your brain - not literally surely..... do u mean u get some sort of addiction - are guys kinda wired like that?..... Is it just me or do other people feel uncomfortable with the topic. I wish I didnt coz its an important one and its part of 99.99% of people's experience.

If you need scientific literature about the topic, the involuntary release phenomenon is documented Human bodies do all kinds of crazy things, usually without us knowing about it.
For anyone worried about the medical ramifications of any of this. Your body should adjust naturally. White blood cells will absorb what your body isn't being forced to dispose of, and there are no long term detriments to your health in almost all cases. If anyone thinks there is, they can always consult a physician.
Your libido naturally declines a bit with less use. Lots of very nice things happen - every single woman you meet looks prettier, you have less trouble talking to them, and without any outside pressures, your focus is on creating long lasting emotional bonds. I can't speak to this last part, but I'm pretty sure that those emotional bonds probably do make for a very happy marriage.

it's bad and a sin. It's not only lustful but addictive(due to the dopamine released with each session.) it's a selfish act which is opposite of marriage which is all bout being selfless. It's addictive to the point that you have to do it and then when you can't feel the pleasure like you use to then you look for other ways to get the maximum pleasure again and for many teens that means sex without marriage or some other category of porn that is completely nasty and disgusting.
It begins to take up your thoughts, and actions and leaves some damaging images in your brain that will dilute God's holy vision of marriage and the sex there of. Masturbation and porn can lead to many problems once you get married, including ED.
it's a sin that is quietly kept in the dark but destroys more men and women than people know. It's literally bad for the brain. It reduces confidence, focus, stops guys from actively person working relationships, and causes many guys to seek sex or other nasty things.

Maybe not. It's incredibly common on these forums.
I think people are too scared to seek out guidance at their churches for this issue - it's just a weird thing to talk about with another human being. I don't think it's anything I've ever worked into a dinner conversation, I'll put it that way.
Please pass the salt - by the way what is your view on masturbation. Yeah, it doesn't roll off the tongue now does it?

If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Eph 4

Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his saints,
To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.
These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts;
...there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
- Jude
