Sexual Addiction Or Misguided Youth?? Posted: 11-27-07 01:40am
Im concerned that I may be a sex addict!!!
I have always been very comfortable in my
sexuality.. but in the last 7 months or so
it seems I cant control myself when it
comes to risky sexual behavior I have a
boyfriend who I love and our sex life is
great but I sleep with any guy who looks
at me twice including friends boyfriends
and others who are "off limits" I feel a
huge amount of guilt afterwards and swear
off men other than my boyfriend ...but
then I just fall back into someones bed
before I know it!!! I hide my behavior
from my friends but it gets me in sticky
situations and im anxious because of all
of the secrets im carrying around I also
am not as satisfied with "normal sex" as
much anymore and want to be choked or with
multiple partners at once which I know is
not very safe!! but makes me feel high!! I
feel horrible about myself and I want to
stop but I dont know what to do!! I have
also had minor drug problems which are
under control now!! ...addictive
personality!!!!does anyone have any advice
for me??help!!!

do you know that you are at a HUGE risk
for pregnancy or even stds? how would you
feel if you fell pregnant right now?! or
even had an std or HIV that could kill
you?!
you need to seek a theripst help of some
sort maybe to talk to them about this. its

Not to mention any sexual transmitted
deasese. Approcoach sex with caution, like
you would a stop sign.

Well you might like it now but after you
get married and your husband called you a
prostitute after looking at your fully
used and devastated p*** then you would
realise what you are doing... Moreover the
worst can happin is you get aids and you
loose your p****....
Dont belive me
Goto images.google.com and search for "
aids patients "
You would know..
Well this was the shouting part.........
actually i had the same problem sometime
back that i used to become very horney
whevever i met anyone new..
BUT
i found out a solution to it.. Try
diverting your mind to other things...
I started smoking.. but you dont start
it.. lolzz
try to make a hobby.. goto church everyday
for 2 min.. goto a book store.. goto a
coffee shop etc etc. u can do lots of
things..
But this is something you cannot do
deliberately....
Just start doing it even if you dont like
doing it.. I am sure you would again do it
the next day...
If this does not work... Then
May God Bless You !!!
Cheers

Hey Amy,
Anything can become an addiction. Some
things more than others, but sex rates up
there on the addiction scale along with
alcohol, drugs & gambling. You say
that it's a compulsion and that you
experience a "high".....which tells me
that indeed you very well could be a sex
addict. I could be wrong, perhaps it's
just a case of misguided self esteem as
opposed to a misguided youth. The high
you get could be from the fact that
someone found you attractive and it fed
your ego momentarily. I don't know much
about sex addiction, but I'd bet dollars
to donuts that low self esteem is a major
contributor to the addiction......as it is
to most addictions.
You've taken the very brave first step in
recognizing it as a problem and saying it
outloud. That's half the battle right
there....kudos to you for that. Now what
you've got to do is reasearch the heck out
of it.....arm yourself with the
information you need. Google search "sex
addiction", and locations of support
programs in your area. It won't hurt to
attend a meeting and talk to the
"experts". See your family doctor,
perhaps he (or she) will be able to point
you in the right direction. Just don't
let it go by the wayside, because from
what you describe here you're possibly
headed down a path of self destruction.
Everytime you "use" you're compounding the
problem, and breaking down the self esteem
that much more.
Check into it, use the boards here to
vent. People really seem to care, and
that in itself is an awesome support
system. Much luck to you...hang in and
hang on....nothing is impossible unless
you make it so!
