Dear all, Glad to be in a group of those who believe in Christ. My whole life, my identity is tied to being a Christian. Both my parents were from a different faith but accepted Christ in their lives. As for me, i did so when i was in college. The battle with pmo started pretty young. When i did it for the first time out of self discovery i did not even know what it was... Later as it was pleasurable , i did continue and associating with semi nude pictures brought more pleasure. When i bought a computer later, that is when i learnt about p. From then on it has been a downward spiral. When i accepted Christ , i did confess to a pastor and an elder brother who helped me. I was free for a long time, later i had move on and wasn't in touch with them and fell again for pmo. I so long to be free like in those times. I did not know about nofap then..I am mostly an introvert and keep things to myself. Glad to be in the company of fellow believers who could guide and help me. I have read the posts in the group and find great encouragement. I have started my journey again. I have all the reasons to fight earnestly back, finding my hope and strength in him alone who is able to save. I am married now with a kid. I did confess to my wife about my struggle. I try and keep sober for a period of time but then fall again .. I find it so depressing to go and confess again.I am so happy to be here along with fellow believers who are open and on this battle along with me... Free for 8 days now. I post my reboot journal in the age group category. I'll update my journey here as well... Thank you all for your encouragement and support.
Praying that you will find strength in the Lord and hide his word in your heart. You are loved here. This community changed my life. I hope it will do the same for you.
Welcome to the fight of your life! Glad to have you here with us. Reach out any time for support and encouragement. Maybe you can find an AP of three here to walk alongside you on your journey toward freedom. I am praying for you and cheering you on!
Thank you Tao Jones for your prayers, encouragement and support .. would be glad in having AP from here, I'll check further on it,Thank you.
