What is sexual addiction?

Sexual dependence is a serious problem. There is nothing funny in it. For her reason, people are constantly in an excited state, can not focus on important things, often find themselves in stupid situations.

Sexual dependence is an obsessive sexual behavior, subconsciously used to achieve a certain mental pleasure and comfort. Otherwise, this dependence is called addiction.

Sex addiction is expressed in the inability to take control of their own sexual desire, denial of the negative consequences of promiscuity, uncontrollability in the social spheres of life and so on. Sexual impulses become more frequent with time. Long-term abstinence can cause symptoms of withdrawal symptoms.

Sexual dependence is when a person from a sexual act receives about the same thing as a drug addict from a regular dose. As a rule, the sensations experienced by sex-dependent people during intercourse are very strong. Often these sensations help them to isolate themselves from the outside world, give the opportunity to feel themselves as someone else, kill fear, longing and so on. The need for this eventually becomes stronger and stronger. The usual "dose" is already scarce. A sick person can also be aware of his dependence. However, in most cases it is almost impossible to get rid of it on your own.

Sexual dependence most often manifests itself in men, but women suffer from it too much. In some cases, addiction is the desire for unusual forms of sex. It can be associated with masturbation, incest, violence and so on.

It is interesting to note that to increase self-esteem, promiscuous sexual acts are used by women, not men. Under their pressure, women often hide precisely the inability to normal social interaction, insecurity, complexes and so on. Psychological dependence on a person is also more often observed in women.

Sexually dependent men are also often insecure. Sex wins they are trying to prove that something is worth in this world. Unlike women, they try to put everything on display. Often, all their stories are devoted only to sexual victories. Such men are usually afraid of being abandoned. It seems to them that a broken heart is the most terrible thing that can ever be. During the fleeting novels, they play their own invented roles. They go out of their borders and show their essence. The reason for this may be an unsuccessful love story. Note that such men can confuse love with sexual attraction. They think that if they are wanted, then they like.

Psychoanalysts believe that sexual dependence is a consequence of constant anxiety and anxiety. It has long been established that anxiety, which a person can not get rid of, appears by itself because of some child psychological trauma that has happened on sexual grounds.

Sexual desires can be so strong that a person ceases to think about the abnormal feelings that bother him. Sexual dependence forces him to act, move, desire something. Initially, the patient, of course, it may seem that everything is fine, as the usual negative emotions recede. Problems begin when a person ceases to control himself and his sexual addiction.

A professional psychologist should be treated. Support for relatives and friends during the treatment period is simply irreplaceable. Sexual dependence may disappear, but reappear very soon. As a rule, its appearance is always due to some life difficulties and setbacks.
