I am saved been since the age of 17, but have had my spiritual struggles.Now 37 I have 4 children unmarried. In all these years with so many other sinful hurdles I have incurred. The last 9 mos to a year it has been masturbation. I have stopped for short periods of time feeling the ultimate shame and then relapsing. I can't take it anymore the physical daily urges are to much to bare. I keep praying begging GOD /JESUS to make it stop deliver me please. I have had dealt with emotional,sexual abuse as a kid. But God healed me from that, but why won't this leave me alone?. I know it's wrong, it's sinful. I have turned to it. I am sick just even talking about it. I can't talk to anyone friends in or out of church. I keep hearing God delivers, he heals. Just ask, well I have been asking and asking and asking and ASKING. Why is he ignoring me?. My heart breaks and hurts b/c I keep wondering how much longer ? Reading so many of these posts from the original to the most current has me feeling like I am not alone.

I have constantly believed I was alone and I feel so much relief knowing that I'm not fighting alone. I've been masturbating since I was 7 and I've struggle with pornography off and on for 10 years. I can't remember being sexually abused, but I was tormented by rape nightmares as a child before I even knew what sex was. I don't really want to open that up either, I just want to move on. I'm 31 now, single and never had sex or been in a relationship and I'm so afraid that I'll never be worthy of a good christian man to love. I'm encouraged that this is not an uncommon struggle and that others have found freedom. Thanks for writing this article and thanks to everyone for sharing their story.

Even typing this i feel ashamed. I would like to feel like i'm a christian but, the way i'm living i have no right to call myself one. I was molested by my father and fathers friend at a young age. I.m sitting on the edge of my bed right now feeling guilty...after a night of masterbation and porn and horrific nightmares. I feel like i've displaced my anger towards my earthly father towards my heavenly father. Truly, i knew, i could have died many times and God spared me. He hasnt done anything but, love me, I know that i've dissapointed him. I had a dream last nite that i would die. I know i deserve it. I suppose, i'm writing this as a confession and because, i need help. I cannot do this alone. Hi, my name is debra and i’m struggling with sexual addiction..primarily with homosexuality.

I and my husband are professionals in our community with a strong family. I am passionate for Jesus Christ and want to live totally for Him but i have been batteling sex addiction on and off since i was 11 or 12. I would like to talk to another woman who has been in the same or is in the same place and can just TALK to me. I do not want to talk to someone who has not been there. I do not want to talk to someone who does not LOVE Jesus Christ. I do know my bible but I can not seem to totally get past this problem.

I was addicted to porn from the early 90s until around 2008; the Lord had to break my stubborn will, pride, and tear down my excuses in trying to justify it. I believe as a church, our time is rapidly running out--persecution has already begun, and is getting worse on a daily basis.

I am 24 years old and I struggled with pornography in the past, I was addicted to it. It’s been awhile, but whenever I go back to it I feel horrible. I’m a newlywed and my husband and I understand each other because it is something we both struggled with. Pornography is something that you will struggle with for the rest of your life. It is something that you must guard your heart daily from. Well, I’m not proud to say it…but I went back to it. Not for good, just for a day or two. I know I have to tell my husband. Honestly, I don’t want to tell him because I know it will hurt him. Reading this encouraged me. Thank you for that. This subject is not something that you can just tell anyone about, they might not understand. And let’s face it, it’s not something to be proud of. Thank you for speaking up about this topic.

I feel soo hopeless. Can anybody help me? Or talk to me? I just want someone who understands. I've been addicted to lustful thoughts, porn, and masturbation since I was right at the cusp of my teen years. I grew up in a christian home and love the word of God, and love the Lord. But, I struggle with this constantly. I equate sex, masturbation etc to love. Since I happened upon it when my parents were getting a divorce and I was in the middle of the fights. I've tried a couple times, praying, crying out to God etc. But I feel like he doesn't hear me cause I'm constantly compelled to do this... A couple times i've gone a few times and thought I was better. Fell off the wagon and hated myself. I feel soo much in despair. I just wanna know does God love/care about me? Am I worthless? Will anyone help me? Thanx soo much 4 a response. God bless. -desperately wants deliverance Hello, Jane and everyone. I feel soo hopeless. Can anybody help me? Or talk to me?
