I’ve recently entered a really intense period of temptation to masturbation. I’ve had problems with it in the past and lately it seems like literally every minute the devil is beating on me and I am SO TEMPTED to just masturbate because I’m remembering how good it feels. Sometimes it gets so bad that I literally just sit at my desk and grip it as hard as I can just to release any amount of stress this is causing me. I want to so bad. I’m even contemplating doing it and just going straight to Confession, but I know that won’t help me at all. I just want that feeling so bad and I know that sounds bad, but I can’t help it. It’s like there’s a fire inside of me.

Every other minute it seems like I crave it over and over again even though I haven’t done it in about four years. I’m hoping for a wet dream so I can just release all that tension and not be culpable. Anything to escape this. Deep in my heart I know that Jesus is the only freedom from this, but my mind is so busy right now.
Please pray for me.
 
O Lord, please fill scapularkid8 with Your Holy Spirit, and rid him of this temptation. Draw him deep into Your holiness and fill him with the desire to grow closer to You. In Jesus name we pray.
 
When these tempatations hit, you need to pray and then immediately get busy with an activity that will refocus your mind on other things.

I will pray for you.
 
I do hope that you are not playing games on this thread with your prayer request. That would be awful. But, giving you the benefit of the doubt, I am praying for you.
 
I’m not joking. And I’m not literally being beaten by the devil…it was just a figure of speech to illustrate how I feel…sorry if that was misleading but this is really something for me.
 
Praying for you…

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and in the hour of our death. Amen.
 
Lord you know what is happening in this situation. I ask that you would cover scapularkid8 with the cleansing, healing power of your precious blood. May scapularkid8 experience your healing and the complete breaking of this temptation. In Jesus name. Amen.

am praying right now that you be set free from the snare of satan.

A talk to your parish priest would be beneficial.
 
Try not to be alone too long in your room or bathroom.
Do physical exercise eg jogging or cycling
Take out some good hobby.
Do pray a lot
Carry a cross/rosary to remind yourself.

:amen:

I don’t have the best past, I know what you mean about wanting that sexual feeling back, hoping for an erotic dream to avoid sinning while awake. You will definitely be in my prayers. I recommend asking the intercession of St. Mary Magdalene, though her sins weren’t quite the same, I’m sure she knows what you’re going through. She’s become a favorite of mine since I came out of my past.

Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerick said that no one (aside from God the Father and, of course, the Blessed Mother) loved Him more than her (the Magdalene).

St. Mary Magdalene, as your Beloved freed you from seven demons, please intercede on behalf of this son of the Church, that the Lord free Him from these wicked temptations. Be with him, grant him strength to remain faithful until the Lord chooses to deliver him. Amen.
