Teen Boys Share the Dark Truth about Watching P*RN

[@jusemagine1919]

Amen, I'm only 14(girl)now but i discovered it through my older neighbours when i was eight, when i was eleven I got a phone and landed up in places I shouldn't have been on at that fragile age and only in 2020( when i was 12 ) I truly accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour and it was very hard to break free , but with Jesus being my strength here I am December 2022 still have my challages but have conquered it and all the mental trauma i faced after bc of it Jesus loving me even in my sin🙏,amen God is good.

I (a girl) was also exposed at 8 and honestly didn’t experience full freedom till after deliverance. Sometimes things stick and the power of the holy spirit has to KICK THAT DEMON OUT. Daniel Adams and Isaiah Saldivar have great content for that kind of thing. Every christian has the right to be free! Took me 10 years to learn that

I haven’t watched porn in 3.5 years. A friend prayed for me and through Jesus Christ my brain was renewed. I had tried stopping many times but after one prayer and I believed but I was skeptical about paying for this addiction. A day passes two days three days. I realized my mind was different. Have faith stay in the fight. Rebuke temptation in the name of Jesus Christ and you will be set free.

I was molested and introduced to porn at a crazy young age. I was completely addicted and consumed by porn by the time I was 10. It's all I did. Literally. I woke up to it and went to bed watching it. I finally got out at 24. I'm female. It ruined how I view the world and other people. It made me suicidal for years. I was saved by Jesus Christ and although I have to watch myself and I still struggle with thoughts I was able to get married to a wonderful Christian man. I'm lucky that besides my molester, my husband is the only man I've had sex with. Other porn addicts aren't so lucky. Pray to Heavenly Father for forgiveness, mean it, give up yourself for him. He WILL save you, clean you, make you new. You can have that real love and real physical intimacy with a real spouse. Your life isn't over. Keep going and know that Jesus won't give up on you. Even if you fall again. He'll catch you if you reach for him everytime.

Fill your head with what is good--- pray, listen to worship music, read your Bible, and if possible, stay away from your device as long as possible. Its hard at first but every day gets easier, trust me. Whenever you feel tempted, think about why you want to stop and remember that while it may feel good for a while, those moments are fleeting and remember how terrible it feels afterward. It would also be great if you could find someone you trust and talk to them about what you're going through. I pray that the Lord would deliver you from this addiction.

i was exposed at the age of 9 and introduced a friend of mine to it as well. it soon led to major confusion on my sexuality. i noticed kids in school (high school) would question if i was straight. after so long of being asked those questions, i finally gave in told everyone i was bi to avoid those awkward questions. i soon began living out the lifestyle and giving into hook up culture. by this point, i hated myself and what i was doing and saw no way out. i was raised christian but high school stole my faith. my dad was emotionally absent so i had no outlet for any of these struggles. i soon fell down a drug hole after graduating and hanging out with people that caused me to do things i swore i would never do (not gonna mention it as it is incriminating lol). one day after sobering up from a night on molly, God told me was with me. i began chasing Him. i wasn’t sure how but i knew i was created for better. the struggles didn’t stop. on november 1, 2020, i tried to kill my self. i chose to do it at a beach i had always wanted to visit. however, God had different plans. a woman passed me and i wanted to complement her outfit (she was about 60-70 yrs old and i’m into fashion) but i chose not to. she then turned around and asked me a question. before i knew it she was telling me that i was an old soul and i carried a great message. that my work here on earth wasn’t done. we spoke for several hours and eventually i went home with a smile. i never heard from her or saw her again despite her giving me her number (which coincidentally went missing), but i am now working towards change. i still struggle with my sexual sin but it’s been improved a lot. i’m now married and working my dream job. following Christ religiously. God has now called me to start a business and write a book. if you feel stuck, remember my story. there is ALWAYS a way out. and His name is Jesus. follow my ig/twitter for updates on my business and book: LiveAnavah Edit (1 month later): So I met a guy going through the same struggle as me and I no longer feel alone with my sexual sin. He and I hold each other accountable and have had major improvement. I began journaling as well and I have never been so close to God as I am right now.

I am currently 14 (a girl) and I have been struggling with this sin for 7 years I started when I was 7 years old I had just got a laptop for Christmas (to do school work, I am homeschooled) and I watched a lot of KZbin at the time (still do) and I stumbled across some Vine compilations and they were a little inappropriate nothing too serious but idk something clicked and I kept watching. Naturally I am a very curious person its just my personality. I've never seen this before and I kept watching and soon I was hooked. Few years later I moved up to p*rn sites and started watching VERY inappropriate videos. The ENTIRE time I KNEW it was wrong and my family are real Christians and I would feel HORRIBLE for months after watching these videos, sometimes I actually wanted to throw up (never did). But the crazy thing is after talking to my mom (and her getting angry that I kept going behind her back and lying) it ALWAYS made me feel better like my conscience would be cleared (as clear as it can be). I still struggle with this sin but my mom says just say No and don't think about again. And that has helped a lot and I'm reading the Bible more and trying to find Jesus.

I will be praying! As Isaac said, confess to an older wiser Christian in your life who can give you biblical wisdom and insight, and as the commenter said, bring it into the light so it can be dealt with. A really good biblical resource that I would highly recommend is the book “Passions of the Heart” by John D. Street. It’s really helped me and a friend a lot. In addition to what he said about cutting off access and triggers and confessing to people, I would also add 1. Renew your mind by filling it with Scripture 2. Put to death every lustful thought that comes to your mind; make no provision for the flesh; don’t coddle lustful thoughts (Romans 8:13, 2 Corinthians 10:5, Romans 13:14). Be disciplined in this 3. Constantly be in prayer. When you wake up, pray for strength, wisdom, discipline, grace. Every time you encounter a trigger or even a hint of a thought, pray (1 Thessalonians 5:17) 4. Recognise patterns. Not necessarily just external triggers, but if you notice yourself doing something that you know means you are extra susceptible to temptation, it’s good to recognise it so you can address it with Scripture 5. Tell someone when you’re tempted. It’s a lot easier to not do it when someone else knows about it. They could also give you Scripture and spiritual advice as well to help you deal with temptation in the moment 6. This goes back to number 2: Even just a thought is sin. It may not be as bad as actually watching the video or looking at the picture, but it is still sin. Even more than that, when you let little sins slide, the big ones are that much harder to say no to. Don’t justify small sins. Fight them. Put them to death. Bible reading recommendation: Romans 6-8 Sermon recommendation: John MacArthur’s “hacking Agag to pieces” Another book recommendation: “The Godly Man’s Picture” by Thomas Watson If you have any questions about anything I said or if you want specific verses to speak to specific things, I’d be happy to answer for you.

At times is curiousity, others ignorance, others something deeper... and THAT is the root cause that needs attention and healing to automatically drop every addiction to porn. I pray God gives us the wisdom, compassion and love on how to create a safe space for them to be able to open up to that depth and break free of this chain to discover what treasure they are in God's eyes and find freedom in God's truth always!!

I was exposed at about 7 and had unlimited access to a screen- a computer is practically what parented me 50% of the time. I instantly became addicted and still continue to struggle with it. As a female, I never felt like I had guidance from faith driven media, as it is mostly directed towards males. But to all the girls struggling, know that we are not slaves to our or others desires, you do not have the be the “sex-positive” zombie that every influencer tells us to be. Purity and Innocence are beautiful things. Don’t let your mind be clouded by the world, and continue to work at your personal relationship with God- his presence is infinitely more fulfilling than the acceptance of the world.

Great video. As someone who has struggled with this, I am hopeful I can help steer my two young boys away from making the same mistakes I did. They are three years old and 18-months old, so I hopefully won't have to address this for awhile. I just know as they continue to age the temptations will be more and more present for them. It's scary to think how accessible this content has become even when from I was a teenage (I am now 32). Moderating what they view will become increasingly more difficult as they age as well. I pray I can instill the right values in them so they can avoid this dangerous trap. When they are of the appropriate age, I will also share with them my struggles in this area, and explain to them the deep pit that porn is and how nothing good come from it.

@@andersensplob9082 Do whatever it takes to remove all sources of temptation in your life. If KZbin is a source of temptation, its not worth keeping! The best situation to be in is when you have no means to fulfill your temptation because you have removed all sources of access in your life. And no, that's not by simply turning on "safe search" because at the moment of temptation, you will disable it. You need a means of no access. If anyone here reading this is still fighting this fight, block any access you have, it is worth it!

I love your very focused, short, and general video here. It's videos like this that need to make the rounds. There's a KZbinr named John Doyle who made a 2 hour long video about why exactly porn is so horrible, enough for someone secular to believe. It pulled me out of that addiction and with that I found a renewed faith in God. Highly recommend John Doyle's video to listen to almost as a podcast for anyone struggling. Also he's a very fine Christian indeed. A second comment. your line "It presents itself as one thing, but delivers something completely different" is so on point. That's the easiest way to sense out even cursory evil is whether it's inverting the Good, the True, and the Beautiful. I find that evil loves to present everything it offers as good when it's all rotten on the inside. If something doesn't feel right. Look to see if anything is inverted; The bad presented as good, the false presented as true, and the ugly presented as beautiful.

I'm kindly asking you to read my entire comment: I'm 16 years old, I discovered it at 15 (more than a year ago) and I really hate it. I always knew that what I was doing was bad, but I got addicted very quickly. The longest period when I was not watching was when I reminded myself of Bible verses that helped me (Exodus 20:14, Matthew 5:28) not sin. That's the method that Jesus used when HE was tempted. It really worked. Unfortunately, the longer I was not temped, I didn't really come to God that much. I was very tired and didn't read the Bible or listen to worship songs. I didn't keep my spirit near God. This caused me to ignore the temptation once so I fell again. I really hate ignoring God, and I still could stop myself, but I didn't. Please pray that my heart will soften to God and that I will ALWAYS obey him. Today I read about Jesus preaching about the sower, at Luke 8:4-15. And I can see myself having the faith like the seed that landed on rocks and eventually died. Please pray that I will be changed and be the good seed in the parable. 🙏🙏🙏😢 Please reply how I can change my bad ways and soften my heart to God. I really want to be close to him.

[@bridgeeeena5798]

Yes. This normalization is one of my biggest pet peeves. I’ve been in a lot of female focused Facebook groups over the years and every so often you’ll see a post from some heartbroken girl asking about her boyfriend or husband indulging in porn and how much it hurts her. Every time the responses are a flood of “porn isn’t cheating” “watching porn is normal” “watching porn is healthy” “you’re being controlling” “it’s his personal time” “maybe you should join him”. My heart breaks for these ladies who are hurting and searching for help only to be misguided by the world around them. It’s so normal to feel hurt by your partner watching porn. Why would we celebrate our partners actively choosing to engage in lust with another women? It’s against our nature but we can’t share these feelings because we are shamed for being “controlling” under this narrative of it being normal and healthy.

[@Window4503]

Don’t forget that this isn’t just a problem for men. Women do it too. Both sexes degrade each other.

[@michaeljohnson9817]

I’m a man and I agree, but you should also have compassion for the addict because they think it’s normal and society says it’s okay. Their intention isn’t to intentionally upset or hurt their girlfriends. If they don’t want to change try pointing out the harmful effects of it to them outside of it upsetting you, and if they still don’t want to change then leave.

[@bridgeeeena5798]

@@Window4503 that’s definitely true, however I think it can be a more difficult issue for men because they are the target audience for lust traps. It’s a greater challenge for them to escape the addiction when there are seductive/naked/oversexualized images of women around every corner, even where it seems “safe”. As a straight woman who used to partake in pornography it was easier for me to escape because I wasn’t being stumbled by bikini models or actresses in tight clothing or girls in short skirts on TikTok. These traps exist for straight women but in a much lesser volume.

[@vivaeuropa]

@@bridgeeeena5798 I just don't like how you guys call out guys as if worldy women don't also objectify men sexually or use them for emotional connection to fill the void in their hearts from not having a relationship with Christ. As for those women suffering with husbands who are addicted to porn they're often not Godly themselves if they got with some lukewarm man. So while their husbands do that they're also doing their husbands wrong in their own ways as well usually and it's just a toxic relationship because two people who haven't truly surrendered their lives to Christ are together.

[@captainchungus7591]

From an early age, I have suffered from severe anxiety, APD and ADHD. I would constantly have night terrors, panic attacks, and even worse, I did not speak to anyone except my family. All through first and second grade, I was tormented and bullied, to the point where I became subservient and was afraid of my “friends”. In retrospect, they were not. It was inside a storage closet at the back of the classroom, during free time that I was both exposed to porn at young age of 5, and sexually assaulted by my classmates. The mere memory of that event still makes me tear up, and it has left a permanent scar on my life. From that day on, I was hooked to it. As a child, I did not understand what I was watching, I could not fathom how terrible the content was. This went on for another year, before my parents found out. I lied, and had blamed it on one of the neighbors who was notorious for being a delinquent. For 2 years, it still lingered in the back of my head, but eventually, once I got my own tablet, I succumbed to the temptation yet again. This went on for an extra year, before I was actually caught by my parents. My parents had a conversation with me, and they forgave me. Then I became hooked yet again. For 6 years it went on. I am a blossoming 16 year-old, and to this day, I still struggle with the addiction.

[@sweetweebygoodness8693]

I myself am still struggling with pornography and some of the advice that you mentioned was good like avoiding triggers but the advice about using cutting off temptation isnt as easy as it sounds. What I understand about it now after watching various help videos about it is that it hardwires your brain and the longer you have been doing it the deeper it is hardwired in you. It comes from some kind of need that we arent getting met or fulfilled that isnt always sexual. for me, I want more intimacy so thats one thing. Right now, Im attempting to use something else less destructive to fulfill it such as a romance anime since I enjoy seeing healthy relationships even if it isnt mine. im gonna see how that goes

[@jonica7723]

Hello, I'd advise finding an accountability partner to help you. Anime itself may have some things that can make you stumble. Find someone, perhaps a mature Christian who you can share your struggles with and help keep you accountable even with anime. Most important of all, take your burdens to the Lord Jesus Christ and ask Him for grace and strength, He is the One to ultimately satisfy your soul. And don't be consumed in shame when you pray. He died and rose again to cover your sin and remove your shame.

[@jonica7723]

Also spend time in GOD's word, maybe a chapter a day in different books, that can keep your mind in healthier places. He can break those mental chains, consistency is key. Stay blessed.

I want to *thank you Isaac* 🫵 that you talk about sexual sin. It helped me to understand more for what sex is intended to be by God: for marriage! I was addicted to porn for 4 years since this year I am finally delivered (18 yrs old). But some inappropriate things started already when I was younger. I think I never looked like someone watching stuff also I am female, so I thought I was very lonely on this path. In addition to that, my church didn't talk about such things. I always condemned myself knowing that it was wrong. I always had to do research myself: on the one side the world says it is ok VS on the other way God says it is a sin. Now I have a powerful testimony! What helped me was the verse of James 5:16: *Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.* Thank the Lord I can live peacefully in his grace now 🥰 PS: I still struggle with temptation but I know *For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted*. (Hebrews 2:18)

[@ga-eul21]

I will be praying for you! You're not alone in this, there are so many girls struggling with porn addictions. Here are some resources and insight for you. A really good biblical resource that I would highly recommend is the book “Passions of the Heart” by John D. Street. It’s really helped me and a friend a lot. In addition to what Isaac said about cutting off access and triggers and confessing to people, I would also add: 1. Renew your mind by filling it with Scripture 2. Put to death every lustful thought that comes to your mind; make no provision for the flesh; don’t coddle lustful thoughts (Romans 8:13, 2 Corinthians 10:5, Romans 13:14). Be disciplined in this 3. Constantly be in prayer. When you wake up, pray for strength, wisdom, discipline, grace. Every time you encounter a trigger or even a hint of a thought, pray (1 Thessalonians 5:17) 4. Recognise patterns. Not necessarily just external triggers, but if you notice yourself doing something that you know means you are extra susceptible to temptation, it’s good to recognise it so you can address it with Scripture 5. Tell someone when you’re tempted. It’s a lot easier to not do it when someone else knows about it. They could also give you Scripture and spiritual advice as well to help you deal with temptation in the moment 6. This goes back to number 2: Even just a thought is sin. It may not be as bad as actually watching the video or looking at the picture, but it is still sin. Even more than that, when you let little sins slide, the big ones are that much harder to say no to. Don’t justify small sins. Fight them. Put them to death. Bible reading recommendation: Romans 6-8 Sermon recommendation: John MacArthur’s “hacking Agag to pieces” Another book recommendation: “The Godly Man’s Picture” by Thomas Watson If you have any questions about anything I said or if you want specific verses to speak to specific things, I’d be happy to answer for you.

please help me. I never found porn interesting, and I never understood how people can get off of it. it only disgusted me. I’m now 29 years old and suddenly I took interest because it’s quick to get a rush a dopamine. I’m reading your comments and I’m terrified that’s spiraling out and getting addicted. I never thought I would admit that I look forward to watching it whenever I’m alone and I need to relax
