I'm a 19 year old guy and I'm thankful I found this. I've been struggling with pornography, masturbatiom, and homosexual thoughts. It's been quite difficult because I feel like I can't really trust anyone with these issues. I feel heavy about it and I feel like it's something people wouldn't expect from me. I've been struggling with homosexual thoughts since middle school. Masturbation has been on and off since I was a kid, and pornography I struggled with for about 2 years. I find myself struggling again. I know that part of my struggles come from abuse and exposure when I was a kid, but I don't want to dwell on that and let that be my excuse for everything. I want to forgive and now take responsibility in fighting this, trusting in God, and overcoming by his strength. I want to live a life worthy of his calling and live a life where I desire purity, far beyond sexually, but in every aspect of my life. Any advice on any of this stuff would be greatly appreciated 
. Aside from these sexual struggles I just feel led to share that I struggle with understanding and receiving love. How can I get better at that? It's weird and a bit out of topic but I feel like this is a place where I can ask. Any input will help. I felt strange and discouraged to post on here because I'm not open about many things but I see that I'm not alone. Thank you.
