stuggling for life

Everyone has their secrets and habits. I have mine and it’s been going on for 12 yrs now. I am addicted to masturbation. This is the first time I am letting out my what has been inside me for so long. To this day I have never told anybody. I started masturbating since I was 7 or 8 yrs old. I have been humping couches and beds or anything I could find then. It became more compulsive from the 6th grade onwards and since then I have never stopped. Sometimes I wonder what I could have become if I hadn’t indulged in masturbation. I blame masturbation for my mood swings and my fears and insecurity, I blame masturbation for my depression, for my speech impediment, my backache that I’ve been experiencing for the last two years now, my shivering, and I believe it’s done more damage to my nervous system then I believe. This is my biggest obstacle in life. It has become a part of my life and I keep wondering of the man I could have been or what I could have achieved or the hypocrisy I wouldn’t have to feel every time I look at myself in the mirror.

I remember the first time I really gave my best effort to try to stop and that was in the winter of 2004, when i was in the 8th grade. I went without masturbating for 3 days and I felt so much joy. It is been imprisoning me time and time again. I really want to stop, it has been my stumbling block, my dirty little secret, my addiction. I am ashamed of my habit and I thought the best way to stop was to write and express. Every time I go on without masturbating I find myself happier, free and being able to reach my potential. I am simply free...And I want to be free....this is my journey, if you are reading this, please pray for my struggle, please please pray for me.Amen[/font]

Thank you for your support.

RE: stuggling for life

Father, meet the needs of this man...and thank you that he has confessed his sin and brought his concerns before you. Father help him to know that his true help comes from you. Let him grow close to you and read and consider your word daily. Let him offer his affliction to you as a sacrifice each day that he might experience the power of your healing. Remove shame and replace it with that power. Remove guilt and replace it with peace. Remove thoughts of what might have been and replace it with a sure and certain hope that you have a future for him. Father please in your mercy let him know he is forgiven and help him to walk in your ways, breaking the hold of addiction over him. In Jesus name...Amen!

For I know that plans that I have for you declares the Lord, for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11

I certainly feel for you, but "there has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man - but God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able, but will with the temptation also may a way to escape that ye may be able to bear it!" 1. Corinthians 10:13. May the Lord strengthen you and help you to overcome. HE can be strong in you if you let Him!

I found both of these websites very helpful in the battle against sexual sin.
