Hey y'all. So I have a problem...
So PN hasn't ever been a huge problem for me. I mean if I had access to a device, and I was about to fail, I would definitely watch it. But I noticed that I struggle more with MB, because it is something I can do almost anywhere.
I was wondering, what do y'all use as a specific defense against MB? I need something I can fall back on when I am tempted to do MB in bed, in the shower, sometimes even outside. I know it isn't practical to completely abandon the bed, and I am sure my family would notice if I stopped showering, so what would y'all do???

Shower quickly. Do not spend any extra time in the shower. It should at the most take you 10 minutes to shower. Do not go to bed until you are so tired you will sleep as soon as you lay down. Pray over yourself. Have a distraction ready for when you have the urge. Fight your urges with scripture and worship songs.

That definitely helps Amy. But for the bed thing, if I wait until I am tired to go to bed, I am putting myself in a position of being alone. That is also an area where I fall into MB as well. I think praying would help of course, but if I am alone and I am tempted to MB, then I will most definitely fail.
Thanks for the advice though. That helps a lot.

Start playing Christian music on your phone or computer. Just put it on and start listening. Music hits our soul and can change our mood and thoughts. It is also a form of worship and Satan hates it. If he is involved in your temptation he will leave. Try it and see if it works for you. Blessings

Hey Noah again. For me its a spiritual thing, and rules have not always been such a help. What I have to do is:
1) realise unclean thoughts are coming into my mind
2) Decide 'no I do not want these thoughts' and decide to take action to stop them
3) Pray to the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth to take these thoughts away, that you surrender them to Him and please take them away you do not want them any more.
4) Think of something else. Putting on audio sermons or audio Bible is a good way to re-calibrate your mind onto a more righteous path
