I started to pray daily now. 3 pm I pray the divine mercy chaplet and before bed I say the Rosary.
 
That is absolutely wonderful to hear!!! May God Bless you on this journey!
 
Let’s just say I can relate to your struggles. For me, after I finally went to Confession after a long absence, I got a spiritual strength I hadn’t before. Although the priest didn’t even mention this, God showed me that it’s mostly a matter of the thoughts we pay attention to in our minds. While we can’t help the thoughts going through, if we pay attention to them, and entertain them, that’s what really ignites the flame that leads us into trouble.

I usually hold a rosary in the night when I sleep which also helps to keep my thoughts directed purely.

This is what has helped me, hopefully this will help you too!

God bless
 
I agree with the line about our thoughts! That’s something I’m struggling with now and it can be so hard to dismiss intrusive thoughts especially since I get anxiety about them!
 
Me too. They get stuck in my ocd brain making it even harder to let them pass, but it can be done. I just need to keep practicing!
 
I used to struggle a lot with masturbation when I was younger, but as I got a little bit older I gained total control over it. This isn’t entirely contributed to age, but also how badly you would give up the act for love of God. Continually pray to the Blessed Mother and God to not stop you from masturbating, but to unify your will with the eternal Father’s will. His will does not consist of sin, but complete purity and if that’s what your looking for you will find it with unification in your will with God. I’m sure you’ll find a lot more than just purity as well.
