I have tried to cut down or stop a sexual behavior many times without success. Sexual thoughts or activities take up so much time that I neglect sleep, work, family or other interests. I continue the behavior even though it has caused problems in my relationships, work or finances. I keep going even when I get little or no pleasure from it. I use sex or pornography mainly to escape stress, sadness, loneliness or anxiety. I hide or lie about my sexual behavior to people close to me. I have taken risks I later regretted (for example unprotected sex, or spending money I couldn’t afford). I feel significant distress about how out of control this feels.
