Yes that is a smart move. Edging at that level will not only give you harder erections but will help you grow faster. I always edged with my SSJ and I believe it helped me get to where I am. Good luck and God bless you

I need this forum. Working remotely with no one home has lead to this damn addiction. It’s was innocent at first now it’s becoming a daily thing.
We are here for you, brother. We will listen and discuss any issues you may have, one step at a time.
I used to have the same problem. And I think the biggest change I made was to turn my life over to Jesus Christ and from there, the Holy Spirit, convicted me of my sin. And eventually, I leaned on him for everything and everything changed.
If I could do this, you can do this. Just every time the thought comes up, ask for the holy spirit's help.And he will give it to you. After a few weeks of dealing with this, the temptation will slowly but surely go away. adult entertainment is an evil, destructive and godless thing to do as you're sinning against your own body.
Just imagine what these poor girls are going through being utilized as a thing, instead of a person and adult entertainment is aspirates that.
Too much masturbation is bad. But if you are eating well and having all the right vitamins, masturbating once a day is not that bad. For me, abstaining from sex for too long tend to mess with my thought process.
This is an on-going topic of research for the past 3 decades. But the unanimous agreement is 2 to 4 full release each week is nominal for a healthy male based on prostate health, 5 to 15 for females for emotional and mental health. If the values are not enough, more doesn't hurt. Under PE, 2 to 3 times a week is fine. This matches the requirements for abstinence for having healthy children by reducing defective or warped genetics in sperm.
Day 4 now of no pornography, I have struggled with knowing it warps my view of women in the real world I start to see them as sex objects which is downright rude and disrespectful to the beautiful creation a woman is.
I have gone for periods of months and years without looking at anything, but tend to get triggered by something I wouldn’t think would do it, and then bam before I know it it’s happening way too often.
Thank God for opening my eyes and having my spirit feel remorse, to see what I’ve gotten myself into… again…. And then back on the straight and narrow.
Nothing like realizing you’ve made a good choice and are taking back control of your life
Best of luck to all the brothers trying to eliminate the adult entertainment

Wow, Tyler, I'm very proud of you. I've been free of pornograph for about two years now. What helps me best in these situations is right at the instant I immediately go to the Holy Spirit and mask him to protect me. And he always rescues me. I'm glad you joined this thread. And i'm praying for your success in conquering one of the hardest things to conquer.
No, also that this is the work of the devil. His goal is to put the thoughts in your mind until they increased to the point you you fall into and when you finish and all of the guilt comes on and all the accusations, these are also coming from the devil. Slow down the thoughts and pray to God and you will definitely overcome this.
Thanks,
I fell back into it about 2 months ago and I feel it also drains my energy to some extent too.
Once I realize what I’m about to do I can hear a quiet whisper, that I call the Holy Spirit, telling me what I’m about to do and that I shouldn’t do it, before this I think it was about 3 years I was free of it.
I do find it easy to start to follow and listen to my spirit’s guidance once the realization comes, but how I strayed away in the first place was just a simple ignorance, “oh it’s ok this one time” then it becomes harder to hear, until i just start to feel bad and realize it’s because im not listening.
Anyways feels great to know i am listening now
Big time! It completely drains you of all energy. And when it becomes a habit, it will start to affect your marriage and bring you to places you never thought.You would go. If you slip up, that's okay.If you slip up, that's okay. God does not punish us for our sins He took all of your sins away at the cross. So if you're a believer there is nothing to fear
Damn we're so alike. The Holy Spirit guards me in everything I do. I sometimes get tempted but with a simple prayer to the Holy Spirit. I know I can get through it and not sin. It's so crazy that the devil can push us into sin and when we're done, he's the same one who will accuse you of that, making you feel guilty. Cut it off where you can and go on with the godly life.
That is all your past, and you went through it for good reason. When he finally realized that you do not have to follow that voice in your head and look towards your heart fourth, the Holy Spirit wants for you. This is true commitment to God.
God bless you, my brother and I hope you are able to stay on the right track. But if you fall, we are here to support you.
