    I started to masturbate when I was 11 and I looked at porn comics where kids my age were depicted having sex with grown women. From there I masturbated exclusively to that and incest porn. Now I'm in my 20's and I realized that all the shota porn is wrong, but I didn't see it because back when I started watching I was around the same age as the shotas roughly so I didn't feel guilty but now I do. I quit porn but now I feel asexual and without any arousal towards the opposite sex.

    This leaves me with three questions:

    -Can this be reversed? Because right now it seems like a paraphilia since I can't feel aroused without thinking about it.

    -The women depicted there had unreasonable body proportions (huge breasts, tiny wastes etc...) which you don't see irl so I don't feel any attraction to real women or the very few porn actresses that met that criteria. Can I become attracted to real women?

    -Does this make me a pedo? At the end of the day I pictured myself as a little kid having sex with women or self inserting as the shota so I'm not sure

    Sad to hear. You need to take big decisions from now. ( Sorry, bro. But, you are acting inhuman way)

    And what can I do? I'm very remorseful of my actions and I know I masturbated about horrid things but I'm willing to change, but how can I? What big decisions can I take?

    My experiences are different than yours, I can’t say what your journey will look like. IMO I believe the some foundational tools for your healing will be 1. Time. 2. Real grown up relationships. I’m not taking sexual, I’m saying friends, mentors, etc. if you start dating someone take it slow, let the attraction take its time to build. And finally 3. You asked if this is God’s punishment for your sins, I’d recommend finding a good church, if you don’t have one, and spending time with God’s word in the scriptures. Christ carried the burden of and died for your sins, you (like all humans) need a savior to redeem you and he already has.
    God bless you brother, stay strong. Don’t go through this on your own.

    Thank you. I'm thinking about becoming catholic, I went through a fedora phase and I blasphemed the Holy Spirit when I was younger so I think I'm doomed. That being said, I'm done running, even if there's no hope for me I will keep trying, I want to die with an ounce of self-respect so I will try to be a virtuous life even if it changes nothing and I end up in hell. But it's somehow amusing how can someone sink this low.

    Remember sin isn't just about blame, there's a literal meaning of 'missing the mark' or off in your aim at the target. Now consider if people are off the mark about what sin is in the first place, and thinks everything is about being blamed for being bad instead of just mistaken, that might be the biggest mistake especially in the process of recovery.

    But what about blasphemy agaisnt the Holy Spirit? Isn't it like the ultimate sin, the point of no return? I want to start the recovery process but I feel like I've been cut out from the source and I only have myself to blame

    I felt that way at one point, but the thing is that presumes you know. The phrase 'they know not what they do' takes into consideration ignorance regarding what we're doing right?

    Humans sin, it’s what we do since the fall. Looks at how quickly we became depraved after the world was cleansed in the flood. We sin and we repent, Christ redeems us and uses us to show his glory. Look at Paul and how God turned him around and used him to his glory. Sometimes we got through awful things but God can use those things to prepare us for something.

    Ok, bro. Lets come to the point. You know, Your mind is changed. You are 20, so 50% of your future already fixed. If you want to trick your mind to go back to Normal. You've to live a 200% Normal life. That means, live a moral life more than a normal people.

    Focus on your current reality. Talk with real people gently. Try to understand their every spelling of the words and realize them. It means 100% focus. Dismiss your feeling, try value and feel others.

    Anyway, Decisions I suggest you must do.
    1. Stop using smartphone & Internet. Choose Alternatives when needed. Just give the phone to your mom and say you don't like using smartphone (does't matter if you like using it or not. Thats the reply if you to get improved)
    2. No newspaper or Tv. Instead go to a street stall and listen to them. Whenver, find a poor, Talk with them and hear their story.
    3. Time to boom your Sota or hentai whatever collection. Just destroy your personnel collection. Don't leave a single sign alive on earth about your sin. So that, even FBI cannot prove that you watched or did these wrongs. Bro, Just Destroy them! You will relived from getting caught.
    4. Don't listen to music or mind-playing games. Just be a human as human were a few centuries ago.
    4.5. Do Meditations.
    5. More steps will be posted if you confirm above steps ..... (tired writing it!)

    Yes, I want to do something to warn others about all this mess, I'm think about writing or starting a YouTube channel or something similar. Like I'm deeply sorry for messing up as badly as I did.

    But I'm terrified about not being able to keep an erection in case I developed a paraphilia from all this, I mean I won't fall back into it but it would suck a lot.

    Sorry to hurt you. Your sayings are truth. And I confirm it. But, you should become a Christian Pro. You should accept the latest updates provided by God. Toward Jesus Path.

    In fact I deleted all my porn a couple of days ago, it was one of the hardest things I've ever done but at least I can look at myself in the mirror now so I feel better.

    And yes, I will limit my Internet usage, I want to post videos on YouTube and all in hopes of helping others but that's really it, there's too much temptation on instagram, tiktok, reddit... for me to be on it. So I agree.

    What are the next steps?

    IMHO find a church that holds to strong doctrine and theology. I grew up lutheran but the churches I went to as a child didn’t hold to or teach doctrine and I ended up understanding the highlight reel but not the game. I went to non-denominational and it was the same, it was like going through the motions. Now I’m back at a Lutheran church that teacher the Lutheran confessions, I understand the ideas behind the questions you’re asking better and scripture than I ever did before. I’m biased toward Lutheran but any confessional tradition I think would benefit you (Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, Presbyterian). The big thing is making sure the individual church you go to holds to and teaches their theology. It’s a start and if once you learn you go somewhere else so be it. I think this is the best way to get at the questions you’re asking.

    Well, I believe in purgatory and I got a rosary as a present when I was younger so I think the catholic church is a good place to start for me. But at the end of the day the main goal is to strive to become as much like Christ as possible, I hope I can be worthy someday

    If your problem isn't Gene (chromosome) related and medically well-established. Then, you can cure this. That's the typical nature of a human being.

    5. As you post videos, I strongly suggest Skip using smartphone for two weeks. You will get new brilliant video ideas after that and I confirm it. After the weeks, Delete every apps and use it for just phone calls. (even youtube and calculator app, search google)
    Then a few days later gradually install some useful apps. (Calculator app because Stop doing calculations on the phone. Instead, do those manually on your paper.
    5.5. Quit Comics or maybe books too. Because, your imagination power is much higher and its corrupted. You must control it or there will be permanent and irreparable loss. Mind is You.
    6. If you Confirm upper step ...... (tired again...)

    Just want to clarify, my main point is just make sure it’s a good church that discusses theology. Any religion/denomination, etc has its individual good places and it’s less good/watered down places. I trust God will lead you where you need to be.
