Sexual AddictionWe've all seen the politicians, professional athletes, and movie stars acting in ways that are clearly promiscuous, and then claim that they have an addiction to sex and seek treatment. Sometimes there is a a true to life addiction problem, and sometimes the person is using this to cover up for poor decisions.
The sexual addict will choose the compulsory high that comes from giving in to the transgressions, in spite of the fact that these acts lead to significant deteriorations in their relationships and lives. True sexual addicts, like other addicts, will continue to participate in unhealthy behaviors in spite of the knowledge that what they are doing is ultimately hurting them. Only when their lives become unmanageable will they realize that they need help. Therapy for sexual addiction involves a rehabilitation of one's self image, of their self esteem, and for their ability to cope with things in a healthy way. It is from deteriorations in these key areas where sexual addiction (or any other addiction for that matter) can arise in order to fill the void of dissatisfaction with something else, in this case that void is filled with sex. If you or someone you care about is suffering from an addiction to sex, Pursuit of Happiness counselors can help to rehabilitate their sense of self, so that when things happen in the future, there will be in place healthy ways to cope with and deal with the issue rather than covering up holes in a person's life with an addiction. |
