Let me begin by saying I am a man of faith. I have struggled with pornography for years but the last year has been a true battle since i began to take my faith more seriously. I fell again this afternoon and it feels like something is wrong with me because i can never seem to say no to my desires.
Well first as another man of faith let me first say we all have something wrong with us and that is our sinful nature. And with that as you probably know comes temptation and struggles and crosses that we bear. I know that if we hold fast to the faith and keep moving toward Christ he will help us through this time of spiritual desolation that we are in remember the man went through the desert too and the temptation afterward. And if he is in us then we can make it too stay strong my brother in Christ. Mike the Catholic

I know how you feel man, I’ve been there, pork destroys our prefrontal cortex which is responsible for self control, that’s why it seems so difficult to say no to our urges. Take out everything that triggers you, recognize them all, name them and create a plan to fight against them, get rid of what you can like social media, your phone at night if necessary, be aggressive brother, do the hard things, don’t expect for this desire to leave you in the middle of the night, you must fight it, know you’re never alone, we’re all fighting with you. God will give you the grace needed to overcome it
