To reduce or quit excessive masturbation, gradually reduce frequency, identify triggers, and find alternative activities to occupy your time. Establish a daily routine, limit access to triggering materials, and practice relaxation techniques to manage stress. Seek support from friends or a therapist, and remember that occasional masturbation is normal. If needed, consider professional help. Breaking the habit takes time and patience, so be kind to yourself

Headaches & fever in your daughter could be due to physical illness, tension, stress, or anxiety. Depression also causes headaches and fever, but it's usually accompanied by other symptoms, such as low mood, disrupted sleep, loss of interest, and other physical and mental signs. Consult your nearest doctor for evaluation.

If you're struggling with forgetfulness and shyness, there are some general strategies you can try. To improve memory, break information into smaller chunks, use visual aids, and establish routines. Overcoming shyness involves starting with small steps, practicing self-acceptance, seeking support, gradual exposure to social situations. You may consult a psychologist or a therapist as well for overcoming social anxiety and improving self-confidence
