I masturbate 3+ times a day. I get a little concerned because it takes up a lot of my free time and I'm sure it isn't good for me. But, I get really cranky and irritable when I skip a session. I normally do it right when I wake up, a couple hours after I get home from work, and right before I sleep. On the weekends I just do it anytime I feel like, which is around 4-6 times per day off.
Some info about me:
>23 y/o
>male (ofc)
>work 48-52 hours per week
What should I do? Is it a really bad habit or is it just whatever? I see it as a huge stress reliever. But, since I don't do any drugs, I feel like I might replace this with another bad habit if I stop.

Replace every reference to masturbation in this thread to [insert hard drug here].
Porn is definitely a drug, no doubt about it. I don't think masturbation is inherently bad, but I find myself much better abstaining from it.
Replace one fapping session with an exercise session, such as weightlifting.
I don't think that anybody could tell you if that is a good or bad thing, to me personally it seems excessive, but that's just my opinion. I think you need to realistically evaluate your habit, and really try to see how it is negatively affecting your life. (not just the action itself, but also the things you aren't able to do because of it lost opportunities and time, etc)
If you see it as a way to relieve stress, maybe you can try to attack the source of the stress, trying to limit your exposure to it, OR try to find an activity or hobby that can serve as the same purpose.
Goodluck
