Hey everyone! I just thought I would introduce myself and my situation and just kind of say hi. I am a 21 year old female who struggles with porn-written like in books, not watched-and masturbation issues. It's something I have struggled with for quite a few years and I can never stop myself due to some things that will bore you all.
I struggle with being close to God because of it and hope that on this Journey of kicking the habit that I will get closer to Him. I plan to read the Bible more and pray more and hopefully with the support of this group I can reach my goals.
I am excited to meet you all!

Hi Dani! Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I have been busy with church today. Please feel free to start a thread in the Accountability section. You can't bore us with anything you want to talk about. It actually helps us give you better counsel and support if we know more about where you struggle.
I have been an overcomer for 10 years. There are still things that I have to be watchful of like TV and music. Just seeing a wrong image or hearing wrong lyrics can send me down the wrong path.
My gateway or starter porn were romance novels. I graduated to erotica stories and pictures and movies.
One thing I can tell you is that you can stop. If I can do it, so can you. Jesus will help you to overcome. It is a journey that will be full of learning moments and usually some stumbling to help with those learning moments. It will come with condemnation, sorrow, frustration and probably anger. Don't give up. You will succeed because He that is in you is greater than he that is in the world. He overcame your sin so that means you can overcome your sin.
Hugs hon! I am praying for you.
