• 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.

Masturbation can be defeated with God helping you. I used to touch, look at porn, I had sinful and lustful thoughts daily, until God forgave me and took away all of my sexual desires. I couldn't have done it alone, so of course I know it had to have been Jesus, I know it was. I used to touch 2-3, sometimes 4 times a day! It was horrible! Now, at age 15, by the grace of God, I can honestly say I am masturbation free.
To be 100% honest I do still fall under the temptation of it and want to do it, unfortunatly, but I never do, thankfully. Two weeks ago I did touch, but God forgave me. I had a wet dream recentley too but God also forgave me for that.

I just want to let other people know that it is possible to give up masturbation with God's help. I didn't keep myself in the word and I fall under the temptation. But, now that it has been removed from my eyes, I can tell others that it is possible. And oh, it feels good.:clap::amen:

Hey Young Brother...

I'm glad you are having great success. But I would disagree with you perception that a wet dream is a sin. That is a normal bodily function that most every male experiences. Don't place unnecessary guilt on yourself.

Blessings
Dennis

I know exactly how it is, brother. And you're right....it's something that one can't conquer by their own power. We have to be obedient and start feeding our spirits with the things of Jesus, while we move away from the fulfilling the desires of the flesh.

I agree with sinneD on the wet dream. That's a natural involuntary occurrence that happens to all males.
