• 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 just made a mentor who has overcome the struggle I am dealing with. I added X3 Watch Pro on my laptop.

It's really hard fighting this. I saw nothing bad on the internet for a week and then one picture through our newspaper caused me to get aroused. I also read too much touching yourself will make some1 skinny and I am starting to think that might be the case with myself, so I am trying really to not do it and its so so hard!

Plus I just have this lack of trust for people. Any tips to build trust?

I am also planning on attending a single group to meet a wife hopefully.

I start at a new college in Fall, but will be living at home, but its also at a hard point in my life so I pray for any words of wisdom on how to grow with friendships, finding the right women, and how to not touch everyday.

Hi city boy,
There is hope for you because Only Our Lord Jesus can set u free. God delivered me totally from this evil sin which had kept me in bondage for 8 long miserable years. One day I decided to quit Christianity and live for the world, that day - our Lord Jesus Christ intervened in my life and led me to online ministry Setting Captives Free. I took up the 60 day interactive course - Way of Purity and God completely set me free. Praise God. If u need an accountability partner, I would be glad to help u for the Glory of God. In Setting Captives Free ministry course, they have a mentor who encourages u with verses, and they have a team who prays for us. Pl go through my testimony for more details.
God bless,
Sharon

Thx for the encouragement. But trust is really hard for me still. There is a fear of past experiences happening again.

Dear city boy,
Please visit Setting Captives Free ministry and take up online course Way of Purity. I took up this 60 day interactive course and God completely set me free from this sin which held me in bondage for 8 years.
