Anyone had problem with sex-addiction? (serious discussion)

Well, im having problem with it at the moment, i dont want to give details cause its quite embarassing, but i can tell you that sex has been on my mind for 2 weeks, and i only sleep 4 hours/ night cause of it.
I dont like sex at the moment, the same way a heroinist dont like the drugs but take them anyway.
If you had problems with it and got rid of it i would like to orgnote about it.What did you do?, if you dare to that is, i could understand if you wouldnt want to,
Preferably i would like to speak with men cause i think its embarissing giving details to a girl.
I even called a psychiatrist, so i will see if i get some help tomorrow, but i would like to have someone to talk about it with right now cause im very anxious at the moment and im alone cause my parents arent home at the moment and my friend is busy with work so i cant visit them.
I swear im serious about this.

I knew somebody did. And even I go in supurts of a week but enevr last long. you might want o talk to someone over the phone on the free help line. I used to talk 2 this one woman about my family issues all the time and it helped alot.

We are all human and we should not be afraid of things we are addicted to...unless it is harming yourself or others...and in some ways if you are not protecting yourself it can.

let me stop before I begin to babble.

You should seek professional help because you may not be a sex-addict. You may just love sex as much as I do.

A professional diagnosis should be a start.

i dont mean to play your issues down, but i thought it wasnt sex addiction until you were shutting off loved ones and fucking random people...

It seems like a grey area since we're all addicts as men, right?

But then you read of guys having sex (in some form or other) like 6 times a day. Even if you're not neglecting your job or your friends, that kind of release just can't be healthy.

At some point you're going to bloody your kleenex and there won't be enough vaseline in the world to ease the chafing.

I think that's how we can distinguish between healthy obsession and a problem.

My partner is a member of SCA (Sexual Compulsives Anonymous) and their website has a questionaire you can answer to help detrmine if you have a sex addiction. If so , they suggest joining your local Men's Group for meetings. SCA promotes the 12 step program towards recovery and primarily has Gay members, so I'm not sure if this would fit you. Good luck..

it could be hyper-sexuality, an offshoot of nymphomania.

If you're being serious, I would suggest you see a doctor. They can point you in a direction if you think you need some help or even some understanding. hug

I would definitely seek the advice of a professional. Good for you for being able to admit that it is bothering you. clapping That's the first step to fixing any problem.

I do think that it is an issue if it's keeping you from sleeping (and possibly other things???).

A psychiatrist will be able to tell you exactly what is going on.

Sorry that you are so stressed out. I hope you get what you need from the doc.

hug
