SEX ADDICTION

It’s Time To Take Control

BREAKING UP SEX ADDICTION

Sex Addiction is a way to escape from stress, anxiety, depression, and social isolation.

Sex Addiction is the compulsive engagement of sexual acts despite negative consequences. An addict will spend most of their time seeking out sex, often keeping this behaviour a secret. Additionally, the sex may be inappropriate or risky, such as public sex or sex with prostitutes. The person often feels regret, anxiety, depression, and shame. A sex addict vacillates between hypersexuality and low self-esteem.

What does Sex Addiction look like?

  • A confused attempt at finding love
  • Anonymous infidelities
  • Engaging in high-risk relationships
  • Chronic, obsessive sexual thoughts and fantasies
  • Inability to stop or control behaviours

Am I a Sex Addict?

  • Have you ever tried to control how much sex to have or how often you would see someone?
  • Do you find yourself unable to stop seeing a specific person even though you know that seeing this person is destructive to you?
  • Do you get “high” from sex and/or romance? Do you crash?
  • Do you believe that someone can “fix” you?
  • Do you keep a list, written or otherwise, of the number of partners you’ve had?
  • Do you feel that your only (or major) value in a relationship is your ability to perform sexually, or provide an emotional fix?
  • Have you ever threatened your financial stability or standing in the community by pursuing a sexual partner?
  • Does your sexual and/or romantic behaviour affect your reputation?
  • Do you find the pain in your life increasing no matter what you do? Are you afraid that deep down you are unacceptable?
