I have a problem, I have a porn addiction and I need help, what should I do?!


Question: I have a problem, I have a porn addiction and I need help, what should I do?
I never really thought about myself having a pornographic addiction until I really analyzed myself and my habbits. I thought it was a normal thing to do, you know a guy thing, but as i realize it, it affects me a lot and the people I'm with, family, girl friend, friends. I constantly watch it all the time never really thought about and usually I masturbate to it. But it's been constant and I feel like its taking over my life. I dont have that control anymore. I also feel guilty after I do it. I need help. I need someone to talk to, I need advice. I have researched on how to get rid of this addiction but I have found most that my cure is within myself and by doing so, I would need the support and an intervention team to help motivate me. I thank you guys so much for helping me!

"How can I overcome an addiction to internet porn? Can addiction to pornography be defeated?"

Studies show that terms relating to porn are by far the most commonly searched-for terms in the internet search engines. Every day, literally millions of people do searches related to the porn industry. The powerful imagery of internet pornography is highly addictive. Many men (and women) have been caught in the snare of internet porn and find themselves helplessly addicted to its visual stimulation. This results in uncontrollable lust, an inability to experience true sexual intimacy in marriage, and often intense feelings of guilt and despair. Pornography is the #1 cause of masturbation, sexual assault, and sexual deviancy. Most importantly, pornography is offensive to God, and is therefore a sin that must be confessed, repented of, and overcome.

There are two primary aspects in the battle to overcome an addiction to internet porn: spiritual and practical. Spiritually, addiction to pornography is a sin that God desires you to overcome and therefore will enable you to do so. The first step is to make sure you have genuinely placed your trust in Jesus Christ as your Savior. If you are unsure, please visit our page on salvation and forgiveness. Without salvation through Jesus Christ, there is no possibility of a true and lasting victory over pornography: “Apart from me, you can do nothing” (John 15:5).

If you are a believer in Christ and are struggling with an addiction to internet porn, there is hope and help for you! The power of the Holy Spirit is available to you (Ephesians 3:16). The cleansing of God’s forgiveness is available to you (1 John 1:9). The renewing capacity of God’s Word is at your disposal (Romans 12:1-2). Commit your mind and eyes to the Lord (1 John 2:16). Ask God to strengthen you and help you to overcome pornography (Philippians 4:13). Ask God to protect you from further exposure to porn (1 Corinthians 10:13), and to fill your mind with things that are pleasing to Him (Philippians 4:8). These are all requests that God will honor and answer.

Practically speaking, there are numerous tools to combat an addiction to internet pornography. There is a great program available at www.PureOnline.com. There are several quality internet filtering programs that will completely block your computer from accessing pornography, such as www.BSafeOnline.com. Another fantastic tool is available at www.X3Watch.com. X3watch is accountability software. It tracks your internet browsing and sends a report of any objectionable websites you have visited to an accountability partner of your choosing.

Do not despair! An addiction to internet porn is not an “unforgivable sin.” God can and will forgive you. An addiction to internet porn is not an “unconquerable sin.” God can and will enable you to overcome it. Commit your mind and eyes to the Lord. Commit yourself to filling your mind with God’s Word (Psalm 119:11). Seek His help daily in prayer; ask Him to fill your mind with His truth and block unwanted thoughts and desires. Take the practical steps listed above to keep yourself accountable and block access to internet porn. “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us” (Ephesians 3:20) More details contact- interact24@yahoo.in

get your hands somewhere else...get a job..school... exercise..there is more to life than masturbating.



The bible tells us that satan goes around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. I believe porn is one of his ways of snaring his victims. Once you are in it it`s almost impossible to get out of it. You need to get help through a Christian church where they can pray with you and break the strong hold over your life. It`s not something to mess around with. You can through self discipline stop it for weeks and months even years and then suddenly it will come back even worse than before - that is why you need it broken over your life because it is a spiritual strong hold. I am talking from experience because I had similar problems and it destroyed my home and my marriage and nearly my life. Thank God i got a second chance through Him. Jesus is the answer.

God bless you as you seek Him to help you solve this problem. I will be praying for you.
