Because you are a Christian does not mean that you are above temptation. But the fact that when you miss it and sin it troubles you that tells me that you are a Christian. But you must continue to resist those temptations and fight them. The Word says " Resist the devil and he will flee from you" God, knows your heart. Just continue to fight the good fight and never give up the fight..All Christians are faced with the same fight, so we fight....But know that" we are saved by grace not by works"... the fact that you have accepted in your heart Jesus christ as your Lord and Savior has saved you and made you free from sin and death.."The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak" continue the good fight to keep your body under control....

Listen honey; you absolutely have to begin reading the Scripture and
praying every single day! The ONLY way to develop the conviction to change is by learning of the Lord. The Holy Spirit WILL accomplish this in you, but you HAVE TO be willing to do what it takes. In the scripture is EVERY thing we need to be daily transformed into the image of Christ Yeshua. Believe me, we want to always pity ourselves because we have this or that problem which seemingly prevents us from living the Christian life. It is a damned LIE from satan! Really!!! Learn to set aside a specific time EVERY day for time alone with the Lord. Take that one dedicated hour and discipline yourself to it; to be resolute that IT BELONGS to the study and prayer unto the Father! I promise you that you will see yourself growing in the knowledge, grace and patience of your salvation!
With our earthly relationships, we really require regular communication (fellowship & prayer); and we wouldn't dare think that the relationship would be healthy or work at all if we did not communicate and spend time with this or that person. SO IT IS the same or more so TRUE with God! He desires our time, and more so our hearts!
Continue seeking and praying. Get with other Christians for bible study, fellowship and worship. People who are good, honest and who make their walk with God of top priority. He is faithful and just to always HONOR the one who truly seeks a right relationship with Him!
I pray you atleast give my advise a fair chance, HE will not leave you comfortless my friend!
In Yeshua Christ,
Seven

You are on the right path. We all sin. Just try to be the best Christian you can be. The Lord knows your heart and your intent. Don't let a few setbacks keep you from seeing the overall picture. Blessings.

Fear of the Lord is the first step to wisdom, Knowing sin is proof of that.
God Judges your heart if you want to do good but can't then don't worry as Jesus came for people like you and me.
Prayer is the best thing to do and knowing your sin means you can repent of it.
Jesus Loves us all he won't send you to hell, he only sends evil to hell.
God Bless.

Don't worry God is with you every step you take, just don't ever doubt god. And even if you think you don't feel him he is there. Just like love you can't feel it sometimes but it is there. And you don't have to feel him to know he is there. He is all around you just calm down and pay attention. Everyone sins. Everyone lusts. But everyone does not steal. Try to change for the better.

God Knows whats in our hearts regardless of our sinful deeds, God also forgives us of our sins.. I would go as far to say that your sins are trivial compared to a murderer or rapist or paedophile or even what some politicians get up to, yet they can be forgiven of their sins if they truly are repent-full, so you can be too..

I've been in the same situation you have,
and believe me it's scary for a while, but you have to understand that God never leaves our sides regardless of what we do, you just have to sit down and pray for forgiveness, but you do really have to be sorry.
He will forgive you, he doesn't hold grudges.

Ashton, we are all sinners hon. We are all tempted and we all have deficiencies in certain things. Your problems are not good excuses to give into temptation, but because you are human you give in. I know many, many good people who have adhd, autism on the other hand in my opinion simply makes you more intelligent then most other people, you just express that area of yourself differently then others. My advice for curbing your sins is to pray the Rosary and ask for the ability to overcome temptations to steal, and cuss, and lust. We are all human so we all sin, no one can tell you how to stop because we are all guilty of sin. It is being sorry and taking responsiblity for those sins with the firm resolve to avoid temptation are necessary to be forgiven for these sins.
Praying the St.Michael prayer and also 3 Hail Mary's when you are being tempted into these sins may also help you, here is a link for these prayers http://www.ewtn.com/devotionals/prayers/michael.ht... for the St.Michael Prayer and http://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/prayers/mary3.htm for the Hail Mary.
Many people on here bash the Hail Mary and probably the St.Michael Prayer too, but honestly I am a very guilty sinner who has started to overcome the worst of my sins through these prayers. I urge you to try it.
Your problems with adhd and autism are not really problems, they are what make you special. Don't use those special parts of you as an excuse to continue on sinning as you have. I will keep you in my prayers. Your want to move forward will help you with this.
Pray the Rosary and receive the Sacraments for the Glory of Christ our Lord.

welcome to humanity, we all suffer the same as you. God knows what is truly in your heart, the good news is that God doesn't expect you to be perfect. Just believe that Jesus is the son of God and has taken away the sins of the world.
All have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. This sin has stained our souls and created a chasm between us and God. God loves us and wants to be with us. But because God is holy, we cannot be in his presence with the stain of sin upon our souls.
So God, the Almighty Creator, took human form as Jesus and permitted himself to be tortured and killed as an innocent blood offering to erase the stain of sin on our souls. He loves you this much. This act by a loving God bridged the chasm between us and him. God, through Jesus, bore the punishment that was due to us for our disobedience from God. To ignore the sin, is to trivialize the offense, and therefore trivialize God. Our sin is a great offense, which required a great punishment. God loves you so much, that he bore this punishment for you. God gave us salvation through his son Jesus.
Salvation is a free gift of God, which requires that we give nothing in return. We need only "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ..." (Acts 16:31).

Praying to a human being instead of god
is the sin that might send you to hell. Because
Idolatry is the ONLY unforgivable sin. It's the
greatest sin that a man can ever do.
God knows best-
