I am Addicted and SERIOUSLY Need Help

[Addicted]

I need to speak to a male who has been addicted to pornography and has over come this addiction. I am in desperate need of help and i want to quit or it will destroy me, seriously. I very seldom cry out for help concerning this matter because a part of me doesn't want to stop, that's what makes it so bad, so now i am in that moment of deep "sick and tired" and am making a plea for someone to talk to while the window is open, i don't want it to close anymore because then i will have a hard time talking to anyone about it. If you know anyone who isn't on this forum who had this problem, please notify them that their is a brother that is in desperate need and hopefully God will lead them to join this forum to give me hope.

Thank you

you will be in my prayers....

If you haven't yet, order the book "the alter of sexual idolatry" very good book on it by an author who has been there. He does talk about having someone you can talk to who will keep you accountable. Something about bringing our sins out of the darkness to the light that chnages things.

There is victory!

I am praying for you right now. This was/is the ONE of the reasons for the failing of my marriage. So sad. In Jesus Name I pray for deliverance for you.

Thank you so much, i am married by the way and my wife knows about it. I do understand that it is hurting her a lot (you can vouch for her) but this is just like cocaine, even if it is destroying your family, its still not easy to give up.

I am not a male - and I haven't gone through this addiction; however, your plea for help touched my heart. I pray God sends someone to you whom you can trust and they will be an accountability partner for you. I pray He continues to give you strength to overcome this. May God bless you!

bump for addicted.

Praying for your deliverance.

I have fought this off and on in my life.

Of course no pun intended, fasting and prayer helps (but that alone will not defeat it as faith without works is dead, we have to determine to repent or change course)

You have to take personal precautions to protect you from being tempted such as parental controls, filters to which you do not have the password, etc.

You also need to make standards about what you look at as a whole. I have resolved not to view love scenes in movies or look at any lady immodestly dressed, period. That includes magazines in the check out line in stores, any movies that you view, any books that you read.

Jesus said, if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out. He didn't necessarily mean literally pluck your eye out but you must remove from your access everything that is currently pulling you to view pornography over and over.

Failure over and over hurt me the most but these standards are definitely helping me overcome any temptation.

Accountability to someone is key also, which is where the password or access things can come in as well.


Remember Jesus already fought and defeated this temptation and nailed ours to the cross with Him. His wisdom can help us defeat ours.
