Abstaining

sexual attraction vs sexual arousal?

Okay this is where my therapist really got me confused. What is the difference between these two terms? I know what sexual arousal is....it is when my wee wee gets hard. But what does sexual attraction mean? If sexual arousal = sexual attraction...that must mean I am sexually attracted to porn.

First Post - Let me introduce myself :)

I've been reading blogs and forum posts on this site for a while and I decided to make an account. I'm a 16 year old boy/man and I've been addicted to porn and masturbation since I was 12. I've only recently realised how much this has affected my life, when I was young I was carefree but as I grew older I started to become extremely depressed, unmotivated and shy I feel like I've wasted enough of my life at this point and I'm determined to stop this addiction.

♥Positive Rewards

I will admit that I go through periodic episodes of abstaining from the mighty O. A few times a year, I will go on a pretty good streak. I will end up in a better mood, more energetic, more focused, and have more fun in my marriage. I do not because I think orgasms are bad. I don't at all feel like I am trying to overcome any addiction. At most, I feel more disciplined. Eventually, other aspects of my life need attention and I move on to other things.

My Purity

Finding it hard work today, I have alot of sexual tension this week and it seems to be getting to me. I know I must remain pure and strong.
