I need help

It’s time to go into prayer. Ask Christ for help. Ask others for prayer (you don’t have to be specific). I will pray for you. If you’ve written your reasons down, spend time looking at them and write another. Think about how this makes you feel right now and use it for inspiration. Maybe “not feeling so helpless” would be a good one. I might just add that one myself. Journal every time you relapse and capture your feelings, even if it’s a few simple lines you can reflect on every day to know that what you’re doing is important and life changing. You can do it. We all can. It just takes time and dedication. You won’t always feel dedicated and you might slip up, but you will build a new tool and trick every time if you take the time to reflect instead of just hitting the reset button and going about your day. Know what the early onsets are. Women in public- especially during the summer- can be a big trigger if you’re not carefully and consciously choosing to keep your eyes off. If you can start building up easy good choices to turn away in small moments like that, it will not only help with your temptation, but it will slowly grow the muscle that allows you to keep your bodily urges in submission. Know that, by even doing that, you’re showing love and respect to your fellow human and that is a great virtue, as a Christian. So great that people consider it even as non-Christians. You can do this. Giving up is way harder than trying.
