For all these years it has been a secret, and I continued to live a wicked life. Then three years ago I learned that it was a sin, and ever since then I have tried to stop by myself. Today is the first day that I actually looked on a website to help me with this problem. I'm only 15 years old and my life is a slave to an addiction, but with the help of the Lord, I can beat this. Thank you to the writer, because you have helped me, Truly. Im going to start TODAY! I FEEL SO FREE, I JUST TO WANT SHOUT! IM FINALLY GOING TO SAVED!!! Hi,
I’ve had a masterbation addiction for five years now, and the longest sobriety period I’ve ever had was 4 months.
For all these years it has been a secret, and I continued to live a wicked life. Then three years ago I learned that it was a sin, and ever since then I have tried to stop by myself.

I've been doing it since my early teens. Always had lustful thoughts of girls since a young age. In my late teens, I was very promiscuous so didn't need to masturbate, but by my mid 20's, I stopped dating and got involved with viewing porn. It's now been 20 years or so without a serious relationship and minimal contact with girls. I truly believed masturbation was harmless and a healthy way to release. I now know this is a lie, as I've recently tried to be intimate with a few different girls, and couldn't even get hard. Yet when I'm alone, it works fine. It's a if I've trained my mind into believing that intimacy is something you do alone, and not with partners. ...I'm scared, embarrassed and isolated. It has ruined my social life, confidence and physical/mental health. I don't know how to stop, but by finding this site, just knowing there are many people suffering just like me gives me hope and courage to want to change. I don't want to be alone anymore... To all the young men out there - Please stop and get help... This will destroy your life like it did mine. Larry I’m a 42 year old masturbation addict. I’ve been doing it since my early teens.

Whoever says masturbation is good for you, and should be done, and there is no side effects to it, is just spreading lies. I hate it. I'm tired of being a prisoner of my desires, and be such like an animal to when I feel a little spark I don't control myself and run straight to masturbating. It just destroys you spiritually, and I feel so like crap after doing it for just a few moments of pleasure. I always feel remorse afterwards, which I'm glad, as it is that feeling that makes me fight to not go back to it again... It is all about controlling the mind, which I'm working on at the moment, and keeping away from things that would lead you to it. I'm only 20 years old, I thought my situation was bad, but after reading comments I realised some people have it terrible... I'm religious, so I can't have sex before marriage, neither is masturbation permitted, but I'm just surprised to see guys are married but still addicted to masturbation... Wow getting married would probably be the quick solution to get rid of this filthy habbit for me... But I'm trying, and so far I've been away from it for just other 2 weeks. It is hard I'm not going to lie... It takes alot of of DETERMINATION... you literally have to control yourself, and not let your desires control you... best to be around people n keep urself busy. I just hope it hasn't caused me to be a premature ejaculator, one of the problems of masturbation it causes that. It has already weakened my eye sight... Such an EVIL act, and sad so much youth is indulged in it... Some advice: If the first inward thought is not warded off, it will generate a desire, then the desire will generate a wish, and the wish will generate an intention, and the intention will generate the action, and the action will result in ruin and divine wrath. So evil must be cut off at it's root, which is when it is simply a thought that crosses the mind, from which all other things follow on.

Am fed up with it but this post has shown me what i have neva want to come to terms with that i am an addict. Substancial or chemical abuses people can voice it out and seek help but millions like me outn there are shameful of ourselves to admit it even to our love ones not to risk the tendency of losing them or being shun for our satanic and stupid act in harming ourselves. I was someone in my early days the among 5 most brightest kid in my country and through my sixth grade i was tipped to come out first in the whole country didn't happen i came out second due to one reason my cousin let me watch porn! everything around me start to change and started to build a strong interest in sex and spend hours thinking of it. I was also the fastest atlethe in the school use to run short distance and competetd my seniors and always beat them to the finishing line. Soccer i was a phenomenon that i nearly joined liverpool academy as they played my academy and i scored 7 goals against them. All this performance level started droping in my eight grade though not that serious until i missed a fitness test to my countries under17 world cup team i was really disappointed and don't know how all this was happening. My grades starts to drop my love for education really dropped too i have a mother that will flay me alive if i don't learn and thanks to her i manage to keep up above average when i should be at the top. I have a fair share of women and the funny thing is my performance in bed is excellent and i have been branded bed names like you fucking horse! I am 27 now i met the gal of my life we are very great the mastubation stuff is not getting on the way cuz i never believed this will be a problem but reading this post and the comments other sufferers posted. I have come to face myself and knows i have a problem and i told my gal about it yday to tel her my most dirtiest secret i just came out plain and was very supportive. Porn on the internet about from chelsea football club was an obsession and i have loads of porn movies on my laptop but guess what i have given them to charity in the recycle bin and emptied the bin. I didn't mastubate for almost 24hrs a record i know it will be disturbing but i will try ignore it and try to rekindled my love for education which i have already started this morning. I am successful leading a dynamic marketing team for m company and the result are good but if i can conquer this addiction then i will be back to what my childhood days promised me. A word of advise i think the only solution to this problem is repentance a sincere one to God and admit our mistake and ask for his forgiveness and implore him to help us be strong to conquer this killer disease. May Allah help us all to fight this and all become productive in life My only regret is finding about this site yday wen i in the middle of watching porn.

I am a 43 year old male that have been masturbating and addicted to porn since 16 years old. I am a christian and I have failed so many times at trying to stop. I have almost lost my wife 18 years several times of the evil problem. My sex drive is out of control. I will spare the details but I feel that I can never get enough sex therefore I masturbate instead of going out and having an affair. I think God for this site and I thought I was the only person that loved God and struggled with this evil problem. According to the Word of God, certain demons only come out by fasting and praying. I am going on a 40 day fast starting on Nov 22 to the Jan 1. Fasting from certain foods but fasting from this evil that has cost me my purpose and destiny in life so far. But not another day will go by without me putting up a serious fight to win and masturbation and porn addiction. Thank God for this site, it has given me strength by knowing that I am not alone. So everyone that is battling this problem read Psalm 51 from the message translation of the Bible and let's pray daily for one another to overcome this evil plan. Love covers a multitude of sin. We are awesome people created in God's image and no one is on the earth by mistake. The problem of masturbation and porn addiction was sent from the pits of hell for us not to reach our destiny. Yes, there are pastors, deacons, teachers, and other christians that battle this same problem but pride will not leave them be free. I am going to follow the plan that this site offers and if I fail then I am going to get back up again and pray and ask forgiveness and try to get it right every day that I have breath in my body. The problem will no longer keep me bound. I am free now. If you so desire please join me privately in this 40 day fast. Remember there is more temptation after the fast so be prepared. There is power in numbers. So let's tear down this evil sin. Thanks again for this site. May God bless you beyond your greatest desire.
