Hey, my name is Kyle, I occasionally can't help using porn and masturbation. I'm really looking for a way out. I know people seek accountability partner/mentor, this can be an option if there is anyone available, but I also want to hear people's testimonies/comments about their trails and success on this issue.

I am looking for some accountability...or someone to share struggles/victories with in my striving to be pure in Christ. All of us need a brother in Christ to confess to....I have been giving up a lot of the sexual behaviors in the past, but as of late have been falling back into some past patterns and don't want to go back to where I was...pray for me -Aaron

Hi Aaron -
Welcome to the forums here. As a starting point perhaps you might share some more of your story here. It's been quiet here lately so it might be difficult to find a one on one accountability partner at present, but you could aways start by sharing more. This alone helps. Will pray for you.

Yea, sometimes it seems so hard to resist and at the edge of giving up, pray that God will always provide a way out so that we won't be overwhelmed.

Hi Hawk7,
Yes, God does promise to provide that way out in 1 Cor. 10:13, but we must also be willing to look for it, as it is not always obvious, and Satan will do his best to obscure it.
Praying that you will search diligently for the promised way out...

Hello Aaron. I know you posted this a while ago, I hope you are still reading. I have a suggestion: perhaps start your own topic here, and there tell a little bit about yourself and how you are doing at that moment. Then post in that topic how you do each day. Of course then you need someone to read it and to say something back  This is where I hope I can help. I plan to start coming here regularly, because I too need to be accountable, and I want to be accountable to Christian brothers. So if you do that I will look for that and post something there

Kyle, I totally understand that problem. For me it's been something that I could at least keep to a barely noticeable level. I lied to myself saying that little masturbation here or a little porn there kept me going and made me into a great guy.
I was so wrong. It led to me going to adult stores and it was there I found someone to cheat on my wife with. Now I'm trying to glue back our marriage. I started using this site to find accountability partners and just other people to share this tough time with.
