Debating 21 Mar 2024 00:16 #410492

I've been masturbating and lusting for several years and things are getting worse and more intense, but I keep struggling with really being honest that this is getting worse etc. but I don't really want to continue either, any advise how to make the program work?

Work it step by step and don’t rush the process

But don't you need it already by step 1?

As far as I can tell the process starts with step 1 
I will give battle Sir- General George Meade (Army of the Potomac)
Nuts!- General Anthony McAuliffe (101st Airborne)

I'm holding now where I'm turning to porn more often and I feel myself losing interest in trying to fight it instead I'm more and more allowing porn to take my mind over

Did you do the "Your desire for change" section of the Flight to Freedom program?

Re: Debating 22 Mar 2024 04:07 #410594

I don't think so. But is the flight to freedom also for addicts or just for non addicts?

The F2F program rewires the brain for most people. Someone who is a real addict might sometimes need the 12 steps program but what makes you say that you are a real addict? I tried stopping for 3 decades without success before joining GYE and taking the F2F program. I had zero control over my desires and I was sure that it was an addiction but in the end I wasn't a real addict. I took the program and became a free man. For most people the F2F program, the book The Battle of the Generation, the forum and reaching out to friends is enough to break free. If you haven't tried all of these with determination for a longer period of time I don't know whether you should jump to the next level of the 12 steps program. Breaking free is a process and it takes time, but if you do everything I mentioned you will probably break free. Here is the link to the ebook: https://guardyoureyes.com/ebooks/item/the-battle-of-the-generation

I suggest that you reach out to the main mentor, Hashem Help Me, at michelgelner@gmail.com and discuss your plan with him. He has helped many people including myself and you won't regret it.

Keep us posted on how it goes. Keep on posting and sharing and make friends. Rooting for you.

I sent a message to the text guy, and he gave me a list of questions to determine if I'm a addict and I checked out with almost all of them, so he recommended looking into 12 step program, so that's why I'm wondering if also F2F will help me

Definitely not in place of the 12 steps program.

Even if you are going to do the 12 steps I think that you will still benefit a lot from The Battle of the Generation.

Re: Debating 31 Mar 2024 19:02 #411044

Ok, I'll check out. Thank you!

Re: Debating 01 Apr 2024 21:20 #411098
