Sexual AddictionWhat is sexual addiction?
Sexual addiction is when sexual thoughts and acts become risky and compulsive. In reality, sexual addiction is actually a fantasy addiction. What does giving into fantasy do? It numbs. Addiction isn't just about getting a high but numbing underlying pain. The problem with giving into fantasy is that it prevents you from being able to find true intimacy with another person. How do you overcome sex addiction? First you must surrender it to God, then find help from other people who will support you in your decision to stop. Counseling is an excellent resource and can help you identify triggers, get to the source of your pain, and find healing. Click below to set up an appointment: |
