I appreciate you reaching out but you must understand, stuff you mention in your article is so far off from me. I have never watched straight out porn or masturbated. I have issues with the internet but to such extremes? Rachmana Litzlan.
I'm not sure if you mean the "captain kirk" article.
You were vague in your description. You said
My problem centers around hearing curious words and trying to find out what they mean all the while understanding where they may lead. My main issue is youtube, even though I have a webchaver, youtube is not reported.and I will usually fall into a youtube "hole" when I click on one thing. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Every time I think I am free for a period of time it strikes again. I will say I have never viewed pornography outright rather I would watch bad movies on youtube or game walkthroughs that I was curious about all the while knowing they were less than kosher.
Maybe you could elaborate. What do you mean by "hearing curious words and trying to find out what they mean"? What words? How bad are they? What do they lead you to? What do you mean by "bad movies" or games that were "less than kosher"? Can you be more specific?
I will say that one thing leads to another. The Y"H says do one thing today and another tomorrow. Do you feel that things are getting worse, or staying about the same? If they are staying about the same, I'm not sure if you need this site. Maybe you just have a bad habbit and need to find a "kosher" outlet. If things are getting worse, you are spending more time, or you are searching for things that are more inappropriate, you need to find a way to stop before it gets worse. The internet is naturally addictive. It feeds our need to seek. The more we seek, the more we find, the more we seek..., and the cycle is endless because the internet is endless.
Either way, talking to someone can be helpful. Talking out a problem is helpful no matter what the problem is.
