I am an 18 year old male who has been struggling with homosexuality for several years. I am not sexually active but have a constant battle raging in my mind. I have looked at gay porn only a few times. I am now being accountable with my dad, and good friend.

When I was 5, a neighbor boy sexually forced himself on me and since then I have been confused. I have gone to counseling and had pastors pray for a deliverance. I feel like I am improving but then there is always a bump in the road.

My friend and I have been challenging each other to quit masturbation. Both of us have quit porn but masturbate frequently. I have been at the 4 times per day mark but am trying to stop because I think it can only be fueling my homosexuality and sexual impurity.

I am involved in church leadership and desperately want to be pure before my Lord. Any ideas on who or what to do to get out of this problem?
