Guys, I think the absolute most difficult part of all this and will be to heal long term are the impure thoughts. It’s been the most challenging for me and now that I’m having lasting success in the main areas, it’s revealing the prevalence of constant impure thoughts. I hate it and it’s an obvious place needing prayer and healing in my life. Any thoughts or strategies? Thx Gents, praying for you all
Been working on this myself bro, got a good streak going a little over a month now but when I’m at the gym the thoughts and stares tempt me. What I’ve realized is I’m looking for validation from these woman and that’s what is holding me back. I want them to notice me, find me attractive, give me a smile or conversation but it’s just holding me back. I’ve been improving with this a lot recently and it’s helped with my mental big time, not looking for the temporary validation from woman and instead looked for the eternal validation from God. Realizing how much better off I am away from these things and thoughts really helps. Hope this helps bro God Speed
I feel this so heavy right now. The best thing you can do is just surround yourself with your friends and family. It takes time but you just gotta take it a day at the time. Keep the healthy habits. And most importantly dont give those impure thoughts any energy!
I think the key here would be replacing the thoughts with something, or they would remain
I have never been on a streak as long as yours but I feel like those thoughts are one of lasting effects of porn. Our minds are already corrupted unfortunately. It’s just one of those things that we can’t change anymore. We can control how we react to those thoughts as we heal from the addiction but it will always be there to some extent I feel like
