Frequently Asked Questions.
What do I do when I am checking my email for non-sexual purposes and the temptation arises? What do I do when a woman badly dressed or in a bikini passes? What do I do when I am trying to get to sleep and every time I close my eyes I see a naked woman?
Confess this to God and tell Him that you want to change and that you want for Him to send people in your life who will help you win this fight. He will hear your pray and He is a powerful God but, He will not just come down here and stop it for you. He will provide you the tools and the resources but, He wants you to step and do this thing.
After you have talked to God about this find someone right away that you know who can be your accountability partner. Someone who you see often and will have the ability to hold you accountable at all costs. Being your age I would suggest it be someone who is your elder and will be able to provide good mature counsel on this issue. This can be someone from your church, family member, and maybe even your parents. I know this step is tough but, you have to do this if you want to get free from this. You will not be able to do this on your own.
After you have an accountability partner you need to sit down with them and build a plan figure out what your triggers are and how they affect you. Get accountability software. If the internet or mobile devices are you hang up and this is where you turn to get your porn, get accountability and filter software right away and get this covered. We have a great program called X3 Watch that you could use for this. Set up a meeting schedule to meet with your accountability partner to discuss how things are going and if you are following your sobriety plan that you have developed with them.
Do not think this will go away over night; you have trained your brain to need this crap and you will need to train your brain that it is not needed and that it will hurt you. Celebrate small victories and do not give up if there are stumbles, keep going and dig in for the fight. Please know that you are not alone in this and that God loves you so much. He will never remove His love for you because of what you did, are doing, or might do during your recovery. We are here praying for you and know that you can do this.
Im going to start off knowin im a sinner, ive seen porn since i was little and always enjoyed it. Now that im 15 im just disgusted in myself for ever watching it. I was really addicted when i was smaller but a while back i stopped and started praying to jesus for help. Although tht helped thr urge to keep watchin was unbearable, i have been watching again lately. For example I am grotesquely disgusted by the thought of masterbation and breast implants, and if i am disgusted in that then why arent i disgusted in porn? I have fantacised about becoming a male porn star so that i can have sex with beautiful women all the time and get paid for doing something i enjoy. I still pay everyday for help and the strength to fight this but i thing i still need worldly help. So please help…

Okay, so here goes. I’m typing this before I have a chance to back down. I’m a 15 year old female who is addicted to porn and masturbation. I have no one to help me through this. Who can I talk to that can help me stay accountable? I’m part of a youth group and my church but am uncertain of someone I can talk to. Who can ask fir help and how can I ask in a way that will keep it the least bit awkward because this is a crutch and it needs to end. I’m sick of it and it makes me mad but each time I try to resist I keep going back. Thanks in advanced.
