I'm currently unemployed and won't be returning to work for another 4 months. I'm dealing with some health issues and have just had surgery. I hope to recover quickly. I haven't watched pornography for three days now. However, sexual thoughts about my neighbor, colleague, imagining having sex with them keep creeping into my mind. Is that bad?

I've had sexual thoughts about more than just colleagues, haha... It's fine, it's not your fault—this is what addiction looks like. From my experience, I can say that after I got a job (after a long time of unemployment), I felt so much better. Many of my mental issues vanished once I started working. Of course, you need to find a job that you enjoy to some extent. My advice is to look for a simple, modest job with minimal stress or competitive nonsense, like in the corporate world. Maybe something involving children or animals... You need to reconnect with your humanity.
