There is something missing, a fear, something that frightens me. I turn to other things because I am weak and am a mess. No one knows about me and I would die if they did. I am scared and am on a train I am not sure I can ever get off. Jesus help me, show me the light so I do not turn to the dark. I have no real friends and I am a stranger to my wife. I would die for my family but I am running on fumes. I am such a loser.
 
Praying to the Holy Spirit to give you guidance, direction, strength, fortitude & wisdom in your time of need.
 
Prayers that you may find relief from fears and restoration of the relationship with your wife.
Also praying for your intentions to refrain from drugs/excessive food/porn.

God bless,
Mary.
 
***Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death
Amen.

Turn to God and confess your weakness. Through Him, you will gain strength and courage to face your bad habits/sins. After you are purified, you can mend your relationship with your wife, family, friends, co-workers, etc. Have faith in God; He will not turn away from you. God Bless you. :signofcross:

You are not alone. The entire whole of humanity is completely inadequate to overcome darkness by his own power. Turn to your God, your Mother, and your siblings in Heaven in the humility and full knowledge that you absolutely require the divine grace from Heaven to overcome, and it will be given to you with loving tenderness.

Psalm 91

You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.” For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence; he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.

You will not fear the terror of the night, or the arrow that flies by day, or the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or the destruction that wastes at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only look with your eyes and see the punishments of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

Those who love me, I will deliver; I will protect those who know my name. When they call to me, I will answer them; I will be with them in trouble, I will rescue them and honor them. With long life I will satisfy them, and show them my salvation.
 
Hello there, you can turn your mind to some excellent spiritual readings.

Here’s to get you started:
saintsbooks.net

catholicebooks.blogspot.com

Try some catholic retreat in a monastery and the rosary. They are a great help. You’re in my prayers

There are good songs to listen to, too:
catholicpraise.blogspot.com/

I hope you find these as treasures.

Catholic TV is a great distraction too. If you have an android you can watch EWTN. Just search ewtn in google play.

For now they have a website and audio library.ewtn.com/vondemand/audio/series_index.asp?pgnu=2&T1=
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

†

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.
Amen.
 
Hello,

Know that you are not alone. Many man (and some women as well) turn to porn and other addictive behaviors to compensate for something, to (temporarily) relieve stress or anxiety, or for just due to an inability to fight temptation. Even worse, they may have even convinced themselves and others that there isn’t anything wrong with it.

For many years I was in the latter camp. I masturbated to porn on my computer for years while I was single. Then, after I was married, I did it in the bathroom with my iPhone. My wife never had the slightest idea. First it was Playboy style stuff, then hardcore, then more perverted straight porn (I won’t go into details), then gay, bisexual, you name it. Before you know it the “plain vanilla” porn didn’t do it for me. I convinced myself there wasn’t anything wrong with it (I had fallen away and hadn’t been a believer for a long time)

A few months ago I had a conversion experience and rejoined the Church. Part of rejoining the Church was going to confession. After I got serious about faith I stopped with the porn completely, but I knew I had to tell my wife about what I had done. But, one day I just blurted it out, “honey, I used to have a porn problem.” She was shocked and I could tell she was very hurt (understandably so as her husband had been lying to her for years). But, she forgave me and our relationship has been much stronger since. I went to confession with a priest and confessed everything. You don’t have to go into all the gory details, but confess. It’s hard to do, but the freedom from living in deceit is an incredible transformation. If you do this, you are already stronger then many, many men out there in thrall this sin. Since then my marriage and my life have been amazing, I can only thank God for giving me the strength and courage to face up to this honestly. I pray that you and all men struggling with this be given this courage. Living in the light is the only way to truly live.
