Do I deserve this?

  • Look, I was so confused over what was what I keep calling everything satanic and and a compulsion to give into diabolical stuff, since I was confused about many things, and I refused to give into the arguments from fundamentalists and said I'd rather give in to the devil. Even before this, I was getting excited from the diabolical, and I could not find peace and joy in Jesus Christ. I could not cry in the Passion of the Christ. Do I deserve this? I pray all the time and Im tearing my family apart and might have flunked out of school. I despaired so much that I sold my soul, for heterosɛҳuąƖity, and it returned.

    I'm about to cry now. I don't know what to do. I can't find comfort anymore. I have a compulsion to call the enemy the four letter L word and I get stimulated by sinning and have a desire to...


    God, forgive me, in Your Love, O Lord of all creation. Bless us all, God and Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit, dwell in us.


    I am so messed up now. Do I deserve this?

  • Why not talk to a Traditional priest?
    Please ignore ALL of my posts. I was naive during my time posting on this forum and didn’t know any better. I retract and deeply regret any and all uncharitable or erroneous statements I ever made here.

  • Your biggest problem is that you are posting here, looking for 'help', when what this means is that you are looking for a 'high'.

    The pressure/release/comfort/start over process is the domain of the addict. No matter what a person is addicted to, that's the flow: temptation/resistance/agony/failure/guilt/public confession/begin again.

    What you need to do, NOW, is go to a traditional priest and get committed to intensive daily (if at ALL possible) spiritual formation and confession.

    You have got to break the cycle, and the best 'place' to snap that chain is at the link called 'public confession', where you go about crying about temptation, shouting about resolve or 'sharing' about your failures. All that does is invite people to give you attention OR perhaps find in someone else a kindred spirit who is similarly addicted. It's a sinful, MORTALLY sinful, way to live.

    I am personally involved (to a degree) in the life of an addict in a local Prot church who has fallen publicly and shamefully in recent weeks. He spent almost every waking moment before his latest fall boasting about his 'recovery' and making big plans to do this and that. He coupled his bragging with lurid stories of all the times he 'almost fell', so that people could get a kick out of his vice-filled world.

    It's called 'playing to the crowd' or 'knowing your audience', friend, and you are coming on this forum to spout like this because the thrill of talking about your addiction is more important than breaking it.

    I love you in Christ, friend. STOP throwing around words about how you pray and can't cry anymore and all this... GO FIND A PRIEST. NOW.

    Immaculate Heart of Mary, comfort your child who is hurting wandering. Bring this one to your Son, Whose mercies are eternal and Whose Sacrifice washes away sins.

    St. Francis of Assisi, fighter against sins of the flesh, pray for and strengthen us.

    Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
    This evil of heresy spreads itself. The doctrines of godliness are overturned; the rules of the Church are in confusion; the ambition of the unprincipled seizes upon places of authority; and the chief seat [the Papacy] is now openly proposed as a rewar

  • It seems like you need more time in reality rather than on Internet forums. Often times, we exaggerate our faults, our likes and dislikes, in writing. We really magnify ourselves into things that we are not when we write, especially when we do so anonymously through a medium like this forum wherein other people can respond to our inflated egos.

    Once again, people have gone insane from reading to much. Reading about controversy and wanting to debate people on religion is not the sign of a holy or devout Catholic. Just worry about being practical before you worry about posting videos or blogs to engage in endless debates with teenagers (either age wise or intellectually) on the Internet.

    If you're about to flunk out of school and if you are tearing your family apart, why don't you spend time improving in those two areas rather than wasting time on the Internet, which evidently doesn't give you any peace of mind either?

    A great number of men fall into the fault of desiring to be other people's teacher.
