My story

Hi guys, my name is Tristin. I’m 28 from the US and I’ve been watching porn since I was 10. It started with finding my Dad’s collection and stealing it to watch almost every night. From there it progressed to high school where at that point I had my own collection I burned off the internet. My step mother found them and called me “disgusting”, words that will echo from her mouth to other women in my life. My addiction has led me from consuming porn to soliciting prostitutes since I was 17 to now accessing extreme categories of porn. I’m now in a relationship with a woman who is amazing to me but yet I can’t stop lusting and watching porn. This has jeopardized my relationship a couple times. Recently I was caught again with a long list of Reddit searches and this time she really seemed like she had enough of me and my addiction to porn. I’ve had enough. I’ve had enough of turning to porn when I’m stressed, unhappy, feel unloved and lonely. I’m ready to be normal. Thank you all for reading and I look forward to kicking this addiction.

Good luck man! I have been watching porn as well since ~10 and co incidentally i found my dad’s stash as well. I am 29 and got over a relationship last year cause of my lust. This is the first step I am taking to start a new life. I was just feeling like watching porn today and got here and saw your story and got over it. Keep up the great work.

Your story sounds strangely similar to mine, except I never got caught with the Reddit shit or any sort of indication that I was accelerating the nature of the content I was consuming. Your story resonates with me, and I hope your situation can wake you tf up to what the consequences of your actions may hold in your future. So far I’m 10 days clean, and haven’t felt more free in a long while. I want this summer to be free of guilt and anxiety. We will overcome this battle my brother, and show our significant others that we are worthy of being forever partners. One day we will stand atop of what this industry pushed upon us, and be successful in our lives. I wish you the best of luck, and no matter what happens, I’ll forgive your

Amen lust is from our heart. Seek Jesus and he shall set you free praying for you as your story sounds similar to mine. God bless you and keep you safe from the snare of the enemy. He will try to bring you to places it is almost impossible to come back from. Find a local church build relationships and get accountability from the brothers of the body of church
