What will you be doing over the Easter break? >>

Sex Addict :(

i feel pretty ashamed of this but I think I am an addict. I have one night stands ALL the time (they don't make me happier in fact I cry a lot afterwards). I just want to feel needed/wanted/please guys.

But it's getting ridiculous. I can't keep a boyfriend because of this. I've cheated on boyfriends this way, tried to have sex with most of my male friends (my "real" friends said no - they think I have a problem). I have even considered prostitution (although quickly changed my mind after being in a dangerous situation with a man who thought I was a prostitute when i was walking home from town). Don't knpw what to do really. Never feel emotionally satisfied - just empty and alone most the time. I also feel pretty cheap and not a human being - just a sex toy for people. But then my urges are so strong I just can't stop.

Nymphomania -

I'm afraid I'm not sure. Perhaps some sort of desensitisation to it. Aversion therapy perhaps a bit far. But maybe the next time you have sex - or do something that makes you feel these urges, force yourself to do something you absolutely hate- Like eat a type of food you hate, or make yourself vomit.

It might create a psychological barrier between you and these urges - Might be one step closer to the answer.

And don't feel so bad, at least you're big enough to know you have the problem and seek help :yy:

good luck

I'm not a doctor though, you might want to see one?

Depends if you truly want to stop or if you enjoy it too much to stop

Your not a sex addict. Your screwed up in the head. See a professional ... not those "and how does that make you feel" counselors but see your G.P. and push for a meeting with a proper psychiatrist. If you can burst in to tears in the G.P.s office that always helps ...
