Q21: How frequently do you currently masturbate? What are its triggers? Describe your masturbatory fantasies. How do you feel about it?
A21: "Once every three weeks. Videos on social media with sexual content that I scroll to. If I continue to pursue will lead eventually to pornography that leads to masturbation. The feeling of a LACK OF CONNECTION WITH PEOPLE / FRIENDS or a DIFFICULT TASK THAT I WANT TO DISTRACT MYSELF FROM will often lead to more media consumption increasing the odds of falling for sexual content and starting the trigger" [caps mine].
Q46: What do you think will be the
difficulties and struggles for you in trying to live celibate chastity?
46: "I think there will be challenges in communication that could make me feel isolated or not unified in service and fellowship with my fellow SOW Brothers. I will have to find a proper response to deal with that. Another Struggle will be to keep working on developing a breadth of relationships in my brotherhood and in the broader community. Working through DISCOURAGEMENT and FEAR will be an important skill I will need to continue to foster." [caps mine]
