There are two problems that can arise:
1. Guilt. If religion or upbringing make a person feel guilty or 'dirty' for masturbating he will not be happy. This can lead to depression.
As you see, this is not caused by the physical act of masturbation but the psychological guilt.
2. Fixation. A man may become so used to masturbation that he finds it difficult to ejaculate during sexual intercourse.
This could lead to feelings of frustration and inadequacy.
A relaxed attitude towards masturbation is healthy for the mind and body. :)

I have a feeling I heard somewhere that part of Roman Catholicism frowns upon it a bit for the same reason that contraception is frowned upon. Every sperm being a potential life and should not be 'wasted'. I think it must be the smallest minority of Roman Catholics who adhere to this principle. Apologies if I have represented Catholicism in any way!
