Sexual addictions...?!
Question:
Sexual addictions...?
How can you help someone (a man) with a sexual addiction? Does it require therapy? Has anyone out there overcome one? Any advice?
Answers:
My therapist, who is also an addiction specialist, told me that sex addiction is far harder to overcome than alcoholism, or drug addiction. He said it is because it is a physical craving that provides a physical high within, whereas alcoholism or drug addiction requires an outside substance. A sex addict can fulfill his "needs" in several ways that do not require outside influence, although, it will always escalate to that...as with all addictions, sex addicts will continue to search for the next better high, or in this case, sexual rush.
