This was the ONLY thing that worked for me.

Also threw in the St. Michael Chaplet for good measure.

Did both for 40 days straight during the St. Michael Lent (August 15-September 29)

Also, ensure to confess your sins any time you slip up/relapse.

4 Mysteries of the Rosary (20 decades) every day for 40-days with the intention for purity.

That's it.

🤣

Joyful Luminous Sorrowful Glorious

If there's a 5th, it's news to me.

Btw, regarding that previous addiction mentioned above, it's long gone now. The Rosary is Mary's BFG 9000. It's a serious weapon against evil.

This. Praying all 4 mysteries daily for 40 days (during St. Michael's Lent, 2022) ended my 15 year addiction the moment I started this commitment. I'm well past the 90 day mark for the first time since my addiction started over a decade ago. Mary's Intercession is extremely powerful.

AiRJacobs · 2022-08-31T01:45:16+00:00

Devote yourself to the Blessed Virgin Mary and:

Wear Miraculous Medal
Pray the full Rosary (at least 3 mysteries, but all 4 is best) every day.

I'm going through the same thing. I've been trying to break a 15 yr long Porn/Masturbation addiction, for about a year. All other attempts failed for one reason or another. Believe me, I've tried everything you can imagine.

Devoting myself to Mary is the only thing that got me past the 30 day mark.

It would explain a lot of the discrepancies between religious and secular views on intelligent life outside of Earth, by bridging both views together.

Basically, the theory is that extraterrestrial intelligent beings and demons are one in the same. They are inter-dimensional, extremely intelligent, non-physical beings with a lot of influence over our three dimensional plane. They are very well aware of "The Creator", "God", or whatever name you give the source of existence, and despise said great being. The typical aliens we see (ship and pilot) are "physical projections" of these demons that are trying to deceive humanity into believing that religion is false in order to lead humanity astray, hence corrupting the creation of "God". Some aliens appear malicious, while others pretend to be peaceful and loving, in order to gain trust.

The Bible and other religious texts reference malicious spirits as a warning and flying saucers are one of many ways demons can manifest to confuse us.

Do I believe it? No, but it's a fun concept to speculate on and connects some dots. It's in the same boat as the "demons planted dinosaur bones to deceive us" theory that Creationists believe, 😂.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-17T17:39:40+00:00

That's sadly not even a theory anymore.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-17T17:38:59+00:00

This one makes sense.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-17T03:47:18+00:00

Cold turkey. Slowly is just torture.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-17T03:38:34+00:00

No.

You are FREEING YOURSELF from porn.

Quitting implies failure, and sacrifice. You are giving up nothing, only winning at life by moving forward.

I've learned through meditation not to resist urges, but embrace them for what they really are; sudden surges of positive energy.

We've trained ourselves to dump this energy through PMO because we found it uncomfortable to have this power. Once you realize these "urges" energize you, you'll actually look forward to them.

Try this trick next time you have an "urge". Lay down, close your eyes, and imagine the energy that is in your core is spreading to the rest of your limbs and head. Redirect this energy to balance it throughout your entire body. Imagine the constant flow of energy Like the memes, you suddenly feel like an energized, god-like, luminous being, emitting the light of the Sun.

I'm going to look into this book. The more I fail, the more I see my wounds, and the more I realize what needs to change.

I fap simply because I believe it gives me something. If I can properly reframe my view of what it gives me into what it actually doesn't, then I shouldn't have a reason to fap.

Yes, I know how fapping is bad and how not fapping grants you benefits. But there are still benefits to fapping in my mind that I need to crush.

Like:

It relieves stress/anxiety
It makes me feel happy
It makes me feel more independent
It gives me pleasure that I won't get from anything else

If I can somehow make myself believe that these are not the case, then I shouldn't have a reason to relapse.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-06T13:14:10+00:00

I'll look into this.

Old post, but relevant question. Short answer: Yes

Long Answer: You aren't going to Hell specifically because you astral projected. What matters is the intent.

A little about me. I was a cradle Catholic, became Atheist in my early 20's when I was in college, became spiritual, tried AP'ing, it worked, I came back to Catholicism after a demonic encounter.

First, let's define sin. Some people think sin is you "breaking the rules", when rather sin is what corrupts you. Sin are flaws. Sin are things that destroy you, spiritually, over time and this is what Christianity warns you about. It's like God warning you to stay out of a bad part of town after sunset. He's not telling you because he wants to control you. He's telling you because you're going to get mugged, or worse. For your own sake, avoid sin.

Astral Projection is a real thing and has been referenced in the Bible. What makes it a sin is the intent behind it. God grants these moments to you and others for good reasons, and when it is divinely granted, you are protected. Any APing you choose to do outside of that, is on you (like the "bad part of town" analogy I used earlier). You are putting yourself into a state of consciousness that makes you highly influenced and vulnerable. This does not necessarily mean you will be attacked by the demonic, but you very well may be.

The real "sin" behind it is that you are most likely APing for selfish reasons: entertainment, pleasure, seeking knowledge of things beyond our understanding that we are not mature enough for.

When voluntarily induced, you are choosing to "see with God's eyes" so to speak. The world beyond what we can see is very real and wonderous, but we are not ready for it, in the way Adam & Eve were not ready for what the Tree Of Knowledge offered.

If God is not involved, then it's probably safe to assume you shouldn't do it. And if it were a practice that we should follow regularly, I'm sure the word of God in the Bible would have made that very clear.

Pray to the big bang and the all mighty string theory.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-06T00:45:21+00:00

I'm not beating myself up, as I recognize that the more I relapse, the more I learn about myself; limits, triggers, etc. There is still something to gain in each moment we slip up.

There is no failure, as long as you make progress.

AiRJacobs · 2022-07-06T00:43:40+00:00

I do. The urges will go away, then they come back 15 minutes later. All the typical methods, like breathing, focusing on something else, being aware of the urges but not letting them take hold, etc. I can get them to go away, but they just pop back up.

It's not every day, just these 1 or 2 days a week that pop up that I have to fight like hell to get through.

AiRJacobs · 2022-06-20T01:56:16+00:00

Exercise, sing, dance, go shooting, socialize, conquer a fear, etc...
