Sex drive varies from person to person, so there's no such thing as an 'acceptable' level of masturbation - or intercourse, for that matter.
If you have a very high sex drive (man or woman) masturbation or sex ten times a day might be needed to satisfy you. With a low sex drive you could go weeks without masturbation or sex and not feel deprived.
As long as it doesn't interfere with leading a normal life, let your instincts guide you. Nobody else can, because they don't know what's going on inside YOU.

 I seem to relate with you on this. Except on clitoral stimulation. I do it everynight. I dont think its good, but I cant seem to stop, or help myself. I dont seem to want it from another person either, just myself..

 Can't see a downside unless you're doing it in public which would be wrong you know/

It's more socially acceptable now (not that people talk about it).. but remember that people talk about dildos and sex toys? A lot of them are for masturbation.I think it's a better way of relieving stress or helping yourself to feel good then to go out and sleep around. At least you can't get pregnant from it or GET anyone pregnant. Just be discreet about it and enjoy yourself. It's a natural thing.

 Some people do it multiple times a day some people never do and there are all people in between. Unless it's interfering with your daily life or relationships, then no it's not too much. Since you asked how often per week rather than how often per day, I'd say you're fine. And healthwise? People get pretty cranky when they have to go without an orgasm for too long. Most people regard regular masturbation (well regular orgasm anyways) as very healthy.
