Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Treatment for Compulsive Sexual Behavior

What’s In a Name?

Whether you call it compulsive sexual behavior or sexual addiction, the chaos and shame it brings into your life are the same. Don’t let a label or the fear of a label get in the way of your freedom.

You are not weak-willed, perverted, disgusting or any other negative adjective people want to use. Maybe you have a disease – an obsession from which many have healed. Don’t worry, you are not even one of the lonely few. Facing the behavior makes you one of the brave.

Recovering from Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Here’s the hard news: Recovery is not an overnight fix. The hardest part is not in becoming sober it’s in staying sober. How much pain? What about the many losses? What big consequences have to happen, like affairs, before you are willing to acknowledge you need help?

The Reality of Compulsive Sexual Behavior

If you knew the actual cost you might evaluate the orgasm, the look, the relationship, or the casual sex differently. However, the reality of life is often blinded by the high of sexual acting out.

As difficult as this recovery journey is, many have taken it and would not trade the rewards of recovery for anything.

Where To Start: Compulsive Sexual Behavior Treatment

Recovery starts with a moment. Unfortunately, it can sometimes be a big moment when things come crashing down. Everything you thought was private becomes very public. Sometimes they are small moments, moments of clarity when you realize that you no longer want to live under the tyranny of sexual acting out. If you don’t choose your moment, life will choose it for you.

These moments are like beacons in the night. A glimpse of light, which if you take action can change the trajectory of your life and move you toward freedom.

You’ve probably heard about the need to hit bottom or find a bottom. The trouble is, things can always get worse. There’s always another bottom. How many consequences and secrets do you have to endure?  That’s up to you. You can choose your bottom. You can choose to enter recovery.
