Unsure

Day 20

Been doing very well the past 20 days. But recently I’ve found that on social media I’ll see certain videos and/or pictures and I will get drawn into them. It’s not porn, but I will be looking at these post and then want to view more of it but then I stop myself because I am looking with a lustful eye. I don’t jerk it or anything like that, but I know where my mind is trying to take me. And what my mind truly wants to see. But I never give into actually looking at porn. (For context it’s like woman in bikinis or see through shirts or even boudoir photos) I guess what I’m trying to get at is, it a relapse or no? Thanks and God Bless.

Social media is full of thirst traps. Delete your accounts. Or if you need to be on social media, only use ones that allow you to block people and change your feed.

Thats how it starts

If your hand causes you to sin cut it off… it’s good you find your triggers. As much as it can hurt you i think you should delete your social media. It was a big trigger for me and i found myself in the same boat . I substitute the time i would be scrolling doing this same exact thing, with time with God and it’s helped me stay on track! Your flesh wants nothing more than to separate you from God and wants to do what it wants to do and you must remain in God! If your seeing a naked woman see thru shirt and things like that you may not think it’s a relapse but i consider it one. Your brain is getting dopamine from what you’re seeing which is causing you to remain in that state of lust. Lust is a sin that leads to death brother! Keep your eyes on the Lord like Peter when he was walking on water. The moment we take our eyes off of him we sink! Good thing he’s there to pick us up when we call his name

I would say no. While yes it is a good looking woman showing skin. That type of content is not nearly releasing the dopamine that hardcore prn does. Two different worlds. But I’d still stay away from it
