I have a similar problem. Just last week I went to a seminar at my church about this sort of thing. Cy Rogers came to speak and he said whenever you do it, you must admit it to God, and submit yourself willing for help. your mind should clear if you say "God i messed up, and I looked at things I shouldn't. help me! *expand henceforth*"
The thing is about porn is... it's not loving, you know what I mean? It's not beautiful, but it is addictive. You have to begin praying and fighting for yourself in the holy spirit.

The Noble Protoman.exe Personally, if you can't find a way to come out straight and confess it, just get a husband... or wife. It ends the need, as well as pressures you to stop doing either. So from a psychiological standpoint, it works. I don't even care if you're 13. Find a place where it's legal to marry young. Find a gentleman/lady who cares for you in spite of your shortcomings. Remember, this is ultimately because you're starting to feel the desire of completion through sex... x_coin_operated: I see plenty a problem with it. Especially if she sees a problem there. Sometimes a solution isn't always the right one...a sex partner will only encourage sex...and much like drugs, you'll want more than what it can satisfy... We also need to remember that our body is for the Lord, not for us...what we do on Earth, we should be doing for Him. Don't confuse re-creation with recreation...yes, sex is a pleasurable act...but it wasn't intended for pleasure alone...sex is how we reproduce...how we have children... So, finding a sex partner will only lead to children...and if you're not ready for them, you're life will get more miserable...(condoms/dental dams/etc...aren't 100% gaurantees...I have an aunt who even underwent surgury so she couldn't have any more children, and yet she still did...) Sex is for an intimate man and woman who wish to be responsible parents...

Bluuberry A sin? Really now? I'm going to burn forever in the depths of hell away from the loving compansionate light of God because I mastrubate and don't repent for it? I first had sex when I was twelve, then I dumped her because I only wanted to do that to challenge myself and boast about it to my friends. I don't feel an ounce of guilt about it. In fact, I feel great about it. Materializing my love for the opposite sex in a sweet symphony of motionful thighs and grunts the likes of which can rival the beauty of the greatests componists greatests works. Couldn't possibly be a sin. The Devil is crafty and deceptive...he will tell you what you want to hear...if you only ever live your life for you're own personal gratification, you'll live a secluded and selfish lifestyle...you won't get much of any work done..."Lazy people are soon poor; hard workers get rich" Proverbs 10:4 The body is for the Lord, not for us...He must be first in all aspects of our lives...don't confuse re-creation with recreation...sex is an act designed to create new life...not make a man/women (and excuse me here) horny... Sex belongs to a mature man and woman who wish to be responsible parents...if you have sex, you WILL end up pregnant! (well, men won't obviously, but they will be a father to a child)

Captain MaLita In my opinion it's only a problem if you make it one.
I agree that you don't have to lust if you masturbate, and that porn problem i dunno i guess it's all in self control..
and i'm not going to say that "all you need is self control to stop masturbating. It's a terrible sin and many struggle to pass this block..blah blah" because there is a physical need for things like that and some people who are possibly in a long standing habit of this, or something of the like, would need a lot of self control. but yes, you could certainly masterbate without lust..i think that was what i was meaning to get to...dang. wish i could remember these sorta things..
haha mrgreen on a side note the well story is one I really like but not many like to hear on another side note Pepsi makes a product called life water and product support was thrilled to hear about the relation between the name and the well story....lolz

KP has a tri program and the stats on that have so many 0's its considered an act of god to get pregnant one method is not enough...ask your doc and he will say the same all eggs in one basket and whatnot

ooh, been there done that. i am also 13, i tryed it over the summer. tell someone who can hold you accountable, best friend or someone you trust AND see often. then stop. what i did, whenevr temptation came knocking, just dont do. sit on your hands, go into whatever room parents are in and say you can't sleep, call a frind to say hi. slowly but surely, the temptations will weaken. i slipped many times while recovering, i still do and am.

It happens. If it bothers you that much, try finding someone you will truly love. That makes me love the person so much for who they are and my urges go away. smile It just gets my mind off it.
