• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I thought my struggle was over when I reached the year mark of being free from inappropriate contentography and masturbation. I was at peace within myself at long last after struggling for so long (9 years....has it really been that long?) When hard times fell on me, I reluctantly went crawling back to inappropriate content and masturbation. I realized this was the wrong move. Now for months, I have been struggling to gain back that year, but I forgot how hard it was to become motivated and to listen only to the Spirit instead of the flesh.

Any tips for going back to living free?

Thanks for sharing. I know what you feel like. I've relapsed after having long stretches of sobriety from P and MB too.

It's important to me that I got myself out of secrecy. The enemy knows that keeping my sin in the dark will make it impossible for me to conquer it. I recently posted a response to Gracetothehumble's thread in this same section. I believe that will provide some ideas.

PM me if you would be interested in having us encourage one another through this process. Thank you.
