Handling Lust Addiction

My current focus on my spiritual journey is becoming free of my lustful habits and addictions. It has proven to be hard to undo over a decade of sexual degeneracy in my mind. Who would have thought. I know I am making progress because usually when I try to quit it's like a pendulum where eventually I swing right back into the habit, and justify the habit as I could not handle both being addicted and being full of shame by knowing how wrong my actions were.

But recently I have moved into a new space, free of shame and guilt, and full of awareness more and more. Where I am still sinning but instead of tearing myself down I am just watching how my actions are affecting my spirit. And I can feel myself becoming more and more convicted that this habit/addiction does not serve me. Every time I enter back into the habit I am one step closer to becoming free.

Wondering what the others in the group have to say about their own journey. This has become the single most important part of my life!
