Addicted to Pornography

I am addicted to watching porn and letting all of you know this to start my journey of ending it. Idk if I’m addicted and I hear masturbation is healthy but I will not accept this as I want to be a Christian but I can’t call myself a child of God if I continue like this.
Lend me your prayers please!

Hi @Malki,

Thanks for sharing. I’m addicted to pornography and masturbation. There are a couple of others here struggling with the same thing. And a few months ago, I was in your shoes; not knowing if I’ll ever stop. It helps me to take each day at a time. I can’t handle next year, or next week, or even tomorrow. I can choose to make today count. This really is a good community. Don’t let the differences in addictions throw you off. Addiction really is addiction. And we share a lot more similarities than what meets the eye.

Welcome @Malki. You can do this! We’re all behind you.:slight_smile:

They say masturbation is healthy because it helps release excess reproductive cells. And while that is true, masturbation isn’t the way to do it. That’s why we have things like wet dreams. It sounds dumb but that’s the way God designed it to work.

Thank to for all of your support. I now know its important for people to fight addiction and do things together. I decided to spend more time being involved in church also. A war cannot be fought on your own, you need brothers and sisters and a family to fight with. God bless you all

@Malki how’s your journey going? @NeshKun,how about you?

Let’s get one thing straight - you are ALWAYS a child of God. Just as you will always be your parents child here on Earth, you will always be a spirit child of your Heavenly Father.

Looks like a thread on PMO addiction.

This isn’t an eternity issue. It’s a worldly issue. Ashamed and hiding, that’s where the prince of this world, the Adversary, wants you.

If you seek Him, you are His child. The Lord loves his prodigal children.

You were literally judging the creators of this thread. You basically called their addiction crazy, then mocked them with stupid little emoji faces.

I would love to see a peer reviewed scientific paper on the art of alcohol moderate. Provide me credible source and I will block you so I never have to see your posts, let alone respond to them. Remember, the key is a peer reviewed scientific paper, not some trash you googled.

Maybe the two of you should give it a rest.

C’mon, how long have I been here now? You should know this is going to happen :joy::joy:

However, since you asked nicely, I will stop

There are a myriad of addictions. Just because we don’t understand or hadn’t heard of it doesn’t mean it isn’t just as emotionally and physically draining as other well known addictions.

Choose understanding and compassion. And we can educate ourselves on addictions as well.

I’m also a PMO Addict. The addiction is real. You may not choose to agree with it, but there’s actually quite a lot of studies to support that it is real as well. It’s just not right to trash on the OP. If they’re struggling, you ought to support them, not judge and mock them.

Derek, I definitely think you and I could start a police duo where this stuff doesnt get let to slip.

‘Accountability Police’ if you will.
