I hear you.
In my youth, I spent a lot of time alone. Mostly due to rejection or just not fitting in with the "in crowd", and I definitely fell into all sorts of sin as a direct result of the same. In fact, I'd honestly go so far as to say that the only real fellowship that I had during much of my youth was "fellowship with demons" (I Cor. 10:20) because of different sins that I fell into which were definitely demonically-inspired.
Even now, as a grown man, I spend most of my time alone, but not by desire. I mean, I work, but, even then, I'm the only person in my department, so I pretty much work in solitary confinement all day long. I get out shopping and things like that, and I do spend some time with my three children, but I'm by myself the vast majority of the time.
It used to really trouble me, but I've changed a lot over the years. I hate to say this, but I've kind of accepted loneliness as my lot in life, and I now focus primarily on seeking to serve others. God does give me the opportunity to do just that from time to time, and I'm truly thankful for such opportunities, and his grace is sufficient no matter what situations I'm facing.
I wish that I could say something more to you, but, for now, I'll just say that I can definitely relate to what you're going through.

Temptation rips my flesh
Wages of a sin is death
I say the lust of the heart burns my eye
I got one more excuse - just a little white lie
Waiting for the moment to sin
Telling myself that I won't give in
I feel the whip, but a man must change
Say Lord forgive me now, I'm going to change my ways
Same ol' sinner
Same ol' sinner
Wearing the chains
I get the same ol' sinner
Reaching out to the burning flame
Sweet summer sweat, she's faithfully tamed
Smiling pretty is her charm
I got the gun in my hand, got the needle in my arm
Same ol' sinner
Same ol' sinner
Wearing the chains
I get the same ol' sinner
I believe your lies, desire inside
The truth I know will hurt
Your devil-eyes, I can't deny
I know what lust is worth
The devil has a healthy appetite
Chew you up and spit you out tonight
Tell you it's love when it's only lust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Same ol' sinner
Same ol' sinner
Wearing the chains
I get the same ol' sinner
I get the same ol' sinner
I get the same ol' sinner
Wearing the chains
I get the same ol' sinner

That depends.... Some sins aren't too tempting.... For example, I'm not tempted to steal from people. But look lustfully? That is a completely different story. God isn't going to take away a person's sexual desires. So you can hate it all you want, but the exploitation will be there either way. Anyone who tells me that they have been delivered from this, makes me wonder if something didn't go wrong with their body.
I've DEFINITELY been delivered from it, and there's nothing wrong with my body.
It was demons driving me to lust...even as I've testified before. Once I got delivered from them, the desire ceased because it was their lusts that they were seeking to fulfill through my body members which I had yielded to them.
That's the God's honest truth...

You could always ask God if it's true or not. Anyhow, I've not only been delivered from such demons, but I know others who have been as well. My point in mentioning this to you is to possibly help you somewhere down the line. Not because I personally convince you of anything, but only if God himself convinces you of the same.

I've been a Christian since the age of six, which means I've prayed more prayers then I can count on my fingers and toes. In my experience, God does not speak to me. Only thing I got in my head, is own thoughts, that might be mixed with some suggestions from Satan. For that reason I do the best i can not to listen to my own head too much.
