I need someone to help me out and pray for me. Not to long ago I found out that I am attracted to post op (before male genitalia is removed) and pre op transexuals. I also cannot stop looking at transexual as well as heteresexual porn. I need advice to overcome this.

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.

Key to overcoming temptation: Look to Jesus.
1) dont fight it
2) replace it - start with thought life - by memorising chapters of verses. Good place to start - ps 23, is 53, ephesian 1-3 or any fav chapter will do.
This is to help you replaced wrong thoughts forcefully. If you make an effort to do it, ( hard at first) you will find that a shield just surrounding your head and even if you want to think bad or lustful thought, you can't really do it because the shield is just so powerful..
Or you may think and focus daily on the love of God towards you.
Try it. God loves you inspite of who you are. He did not fall off the throne nor is he mad at you. He knows our weakness and bless us all the same.

dear friend,
by "being attracted to" something it doesn't necessarily mean "we like it".
i would watch a thriller movie not because i like it but because i am curious to see what it is about.
genitalia, sex and anything related to them are a very attractive issue for all people.
if you want to stop looking at porn... maybe you could ask yourself
"what do i gain by looking at porn?"
"is it so much worth it?"
"is this the Only important thing for me in my life?"
"are there other things that are of my interest?"
we come to stress on sex very much, and we forget that sex is important for our lives but it's not the ONLY important thing there is.
there is a whole world out there... by focusing on sex we are just limiting ourselves...
good luck, and may God bless you.
