It's probably Prolactin. Prolactin jumps up immediately after orgasm and remains pretty high, slowly decreasing over time. So you'll still be feeling the effects for a week or two after your last masturbation session.

Prolactin has been associated with bonding, but also with experience of anxiety away from the 'bondee'. It seems like prolactin causes 'clingyness', maybe this serves some function in children (as prolactin peaks during bonding between mother and child, especially during breastfeeding). Maybe it's intended to teach the child to be dependent on the mother, to avoid straying too far or something.

Rats given high levels of prolactin were much more anxious and less able to make decisions in maze tests.

I think this factor also explains a lot of "incel rage", constantly in a state of recovery from porn use it makes you frustrated\stressed without the 'bondee' (women).
