Sex addiction: Where to get help?

Hi @mercyboo4u, thank you for sharing what you've been going through. Addictions of any kind can be devastating to personal and professional life.

If it's becoming too much for you, don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor, or to a support organization like SAA. They can put in contact with therapists or support groups in your area that can help you to learn to manage and recover.

Take care,

Courtney

I have had problems with this since age 16. I had issues with my fiance because of his drug and alcohol abuse, and therefore domestic violence for months... actually off and on for the 5 years we were together. But I was faithful the whole time even though we rarely even slept together in the same bed for the last 8 months. He left Jan 3. Since then I've been so tempted by sex. Have had offers including one persistent married man who's a good friend. I refuse to cause him to cheat on his wife, at least with me. This is a daily temptation for me, whether in person or by sexting with someone I dated 37 years ago. I'm going to Celebrate Recovery and trying to keep busy to keep my mind off it and take it one day at a time. Drug addict or not, my J was the love of my life and I miss him. But don't miss who he'd become. I'm relearning day by day to live on my own. But I do miss sex.

Sometimes, exploring adult content together can be a way to connect. If you decide to, phima1.xyz seems to provide a diverse range in a tasteful manner.

I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with this. It's important to seek help from a professional who can provide support and guidance. You may want to consider reaching out to a therapist or counselor who specializes in sex addiction. They can work with you to understand the underlying causes of your behavior and develop strategies to manage it. There are also support groups and treatment programs specifically designed to address sex addiction. It's important to remember that you're not alone, and there are resources available to help you through this,
