Im new here and my progress so far

[Noah Rhoden]

So to start off im Noah. And I'm an intelligent 18 year old male with Autism spectrum disorder. So I've been battling lust for years but I think God helped me find a way to deal with those thoughts and feelings. So my mom gave me Cbd oil for my anxiety so that helps me gain control of my thoughts. But another thing I have to ask is this game I (I used to play) GTA IV TLAD. I stopped playing it because of virtual sins and I've gotten a lot of things done. So those are two things God helped me with. So now. What do I do now? Because all of my sins are now gone. And I do a lot of house work and take care of my rabbits and read my study Bible
(I've read the entire Niv Bible from beginning to end).
(Im sorry if this seems disorganized. Well God bless!)

Hi Noah, I'm Kevin Snow and I also am autistic. I've struggled with pornography my whole life and it nearly killed me. So whatever you do, don't let yourself go down that road! It's completely worthless and it will consume you.

I also quit video games too. It was consuming my life as well. I have hyper focusing problems. So when I start to do something, it's all I am doing. And video games end up to just consume every thought of mine. So I quit them. I recommend you do the same thing.

But now you have to fill your life up with something. I recommend doing some bodily training. The benefits versus the time spent is enormous. You end up thinking a lot clearer as well. After you get this done every day then I recommend getting into a hobby of some kind. Whether it be playing music or a sport like Ultimate frisbee, it will be productive. Always look to do productive things and you'll become a lot more interesting.

Lastly, I recommend thinking about getting some trade certification to go to work. I strongly discourage you from going to college unless you plan on doing finance, law or working as a research scientist. All other jobs you can do with a simple trade certification. I'm in welding school right now and in only one year I'll be able to start welding! So something like that. Prepare yourself to get into the working field.

You have to pass the welding test. The welding test is just a 2 different metal plates beveled on their edge 45 degrees and you have to weld the gap between them until the whole thing is one piece. Then you cut 2 strips out of the plate and bend it. If the metal that you welded pops out and pulls off from the base metal plates then you fail the test and you have to reweld another plate.

I've failed now 5 tests and it is really hard for me to pass it. I can weld it pretty good but there are other things you have to consider. It's not impossibly hard but if you practice and work hard then you will overcome it. Welding has good pay and has good job availability although you have to be willing to travel to get to the jobs.

Oh wow. You are at a good weight. If you incorporate training then you can really make yourself tight and full of energy. I'm about to get into it myself once I get a job.

That job at the factory can be good. I would try it out. I've had jobs everywhere doing all sorts of things. My last job was a lumber yard where I worked the saw and that was really good except that I had to wake up at 4am and my health failed because I couldn't get my rest. It was the straw that broke the camel's back as they say. But if you exercise and keep yourself going to bed at a decent hour you should do very well.

Noah, sometimes loneliness can turn into lust. Reach out and keep in touch with others. Stay grounded in the Christian community both online and most importantly locally. God is on your side.

May God guide you to a satisfying job Noah! If you're looking for things to do maybe consider volunteering with animals if you like animals.
