Hi I'm new here and I know the title is probably off putting but its something I'm really struggling with. I'm a 23 year old woman and I've been with one sexual partner (around when I was 18) but no one since. After my first partner, I have wanted to wait until marriage for sex so I haven't been with anyone else but my problem is, I still really struggle with my sexual desires.

I have started masturbating pretty frequently (2-3 times a week) and after every time, I feel so gross and disgusted with myself but I continue to do it on a frequent basis. It's like, all my reason goes out the window when I start feeling lustful. I don't know what to do and I feel so guilty and dirty and that God is disappointed in me but I can never seem to curb the urges. If anyone has any advice on how to help with this, I would greatly appreciate it.

This is a sensitive topic for me so please, if you could keep judgment or harsh words out of your replies, I would appreciate it :sad
 
Some times the quickest way to a destination is a straight line.
The OP'er seemed to want a way out.
That is what I provided.

Or, you could quit walking after the flesh and start walking after the Spirit.

If this is all the information/counsel you could muster up.... well...
perhaps this thread would have better been served by your silence.
 
Well - the OP has not been back since last weekend. Perhaps she is too embarrassed to come back. I hope not.
It is also possible that she has seen the posts without logging in and has not seen anything to reply to.

I do hope she comes back because I have a book suggestion that IMO could be quite helpful.

Hopefully, she learned there was a way out of her predicament, and took it.

I suppose you could just keep praying on it, and have pastors pray for you constantly. The best thing we can do is do it less. Most people say its impossible to completely stop. Its hard to stop mainly because of the feeling we get from orgasms and arousal. The body loves the chemicals from arousal so it demands more, it is what makes masturbation addictive. If that problem is dealt with i think it would be much easier to stop. I believe that we can at least do it less. I wish you all the best. The only thing i can say, is get married. That was bible Pauls advice.
