confusing messages
i dont understand, if you are not getting sex why are you getting mad at people? if i am not getting sex, i usually masturbate. i have a high sex drive also, but not getting sex doesnt lead me to get mad at people. so i dont know if the two issues are linked to each other. i can understand frustration but anger is a bit odd. but i understand what you are going through though, i would try to decrease the urges by concentrating on other things in your life. maybe work, exercising, religion?

"addiction"
Addiction causes psychiatric problems but, at least in some cases, psychiatric problems can come first
Addiction is a complex illness that affects different people in different ways. Just because someone gambles, takes drugs or drinks alcohol does not mean that they have an addiction - an addiction is a loss of control over substance use or behaviour.
I don't have the answers to your situation,but take it from someone who knows, you will find the answer if first you look inside yourself. I had to become so dissatisfied with what I saw before the answers started coming to me.
Peace and love baby!
