Stop seeing girls as sex objects
Exercise
Read Books
Read Journals
Listen to music


Men and women are sex objects to one another. The only thing is to not abuse the object.

There would be a lot of advice based on religious views, they hardly work. You go to church and you also know there's bible before engaging in pornography.

I would advise you get a girlfriend and do the things practical to your satisfaction. Knack her well and in different styles as the porn. When there is nothing more to desire, you'll less likely have interests in pornographic videos.
lol......it sounds funny but could work.

When I see dos porn now it just look to me like an old movie I have watched b4.(I be like wat a crap)... hahahahaha.

Give your life to Jesus and ask him to help you.

Read the bible and pray.

Don't watch Nigerian music.

Don't read any magazine that has pornography or nude pictures....avoid sexual scenes in movies.....

Don't listen to any audio about sex, body shape and immorality. etc. Unfortunately, it has filled the Music Industry....

. I don't listen to secular at all and I followed everything I have told you.

The devil captures the mind of men through what they read, see and hear... and he has filled the world with immorality everywhere..... Music, magazine and general dressing. ...

He understands how the human mind works......

The image of nudity sticks to the mind.... once the seed is sown in the mind, that's all.

Watch and pray.








Stop watching Nigerian music.

Yes and stop HEARING NIGERIAN FILM

#Hogwash
Believers too can struggle with bad habits. But with the twisted views of most Christians about the doctrine of soteriology, I bet many ll disagree

Consider yourself dead to Pornography ( Sexual immorality) through Christ Jesus according to the scripture. The dead do not view pornography. This is what I normally do with immoral desires that tries to take me captive.

Before long, I guarantee you that the desire to view porn will wear on you and you will be free.
LOL so many dead people pushing out the impression they're living, life in entirety is indeed a disease and nothing more.

Re: How Can I Overcome The Urge For Pornography? by Nobody: 10:19am On Jan 13, 2019
U started the act, u alone can stop it, u need to just make up ur mind and stop seeing it. I know there wud b many advice including religious stuff but they might not work.

Dont get me wrong, it hlps but may not hlp u fight it 100%

But d truth is- u really need to keep urself busy at all time.

Tho, bn in relationship or getting married can help too but some ppl in relationships and even married people are also addicted to porn n masturbation.

The best tin is to makeup ur mind that u ar done wit it n always keep urself busy.If u ar always busy, u'l hardly tink abt it. Surround urself wit decent ppl too...If u ar a student, y not move to d hostel? Dat porn time will b used 4 gist n u can always go to class to read. But think v.well b4 doing dis cos not every1 cud b comfortable living in the hostel n u av 2 knw d type of ppl u'l b living wit also. But ur sef decision crown it all cos wot if u av a reason to leave d midst of folks again?...Makeup ur mind Op

Always be with righteous people ,avoid to be alone, and if you are alone before you commence watching it ask yourself WHY should I wash it, then pray to GOD to protect and preserve from evil act.
Re: How Can I Overcome The Urge For Pornography? by gotest180(m): 10:47am On Jan 13, 2019
I used to be in your position. Anytime you feel the urge just pray at the same time. Its a devilish act and spirit that locks progress. Just rebuke the spirit.

Just give yourself headache... I meant carry projects that ordinarily you can't handle. Trust me porn will be the last thing on your mind. E.g, go and start building a 2 storey building, or start the process of marriage or invest your live savings in a business. I wish I knew what I know now during my 20s. It is the best time to take all kinds of financial risks and blow, b4 your 30th birthday, you are already made and will be cruising. At 21, your health is standard, your biological shock absorbers are still intact, nothing like blood pressure etc... Don't waste the energy on porn and matubation. I repeat, give yourself serious assignment that will keep you restless for the next 3 years.

I battled with that for over 10yrs lol (for real) cool but am over it now
Here is how
Am a Christian
A time came when I needed Gods help in my life and I sensed that he can't help much when am still into sexual immoralities so I
-went to God in prayer
-confessed my sins to him
-told him I no longer want2 be battling with sexual immorality
-asked him to help me stop it totally
-drew closer to him
And then I was able to stop it totally even the urge I no longer feel at all till today .
SO ASK GOD FOR THE SPIRIT OF SELF CONTROL

The above steps are tested and trusted .

These steps people are giving to you can help you minimize it but a time will come when you can't control the urge then you find yourself where you were again .
GOODLUCK

This is one addiction so many young people ate fighting. And time and again, there's been many thread on this topic already.
Here's my little coin for you.
Take an active step.
1. Write a plan and mark everyday that passes by without you masturbating or watching porn. It gives you a sense of challenge to beat.

2. Limit the level of security and privacy you set around yourself. E.g make your room more accessible. If your house has very good security, don't close your door when you're about to sleep at night.

3. Find someone who won't judge you, someone you trust very well and confide in them. Let the person monitor your progress in the challenge you give yourself in number 1.

4. Don't be too harsh on yourself every time you fall into it and don't try ti give up. Always be convinced that you'll overcome it.

5. Find activities you can do to move your life forward and engage in daily commitment to that activity. Masturbating reuqires passion and you can drive that passion to something else.

Overall, if you're really convinced you want to stop it, I believe you will really stop it though it's not going to be easy.


1. Give your life to Jesus Christ by confessing your sins including the masturbating sin to God, do this with a sincere and repenting heart after which pray to God to help you overcome the spirit of masturbation and He will help you.
2. Always read your Bible and pray
3. Look for another activity that you can substitute for masturbation. Anything you know that can easily reach to do or you like doing, like hobbies
4. Give yourself targets that you will want to get/achieve if you're able to overcome this spirit of masturbation
5. Set rewards for yourself anytime you achieve each targets you will reward yourself.
6. Ask questions about masturbation from people how they feel about masturbation especially the people you know they will hate even hearing the word masturbation and ask them indirectly how will they think this masturbation thing can be overcome.
7. Avoid watching films that erotic in nature (sexual related movies)
8. Still fast and pray about it.
9. Pray and believe that it's over between you and masturbation and always give thanks to God for helping to overcome it.

A lot of addicts are looking for one secret formula or the other to stop their habit. The truth remains that the only way to stop addiction is strong exertion of willpower. If you don't say no and stand on it, you are on your own.

The urge is high when you make a decision not to watch.

Please note that when you take a decision not to watch porn again, the urge to watch it will increase. If u can fight off that urge, then it on your way to freedom.

For taking the most and challenging decision which NOT TO WATCH PORN again, the next will be to FIGHT OF THE URGE whenever it comes by finding something to distract your mind.
