Most people snicker at the idea of sex addiction but it’s actually a real problem. There is no hard number on how widespread of a problem it is because many experts debate whether sex addiction is truly a mental disease or more of a narcissistic indulgence. Many experts also feel it may be part of a manic-depressive, OCD, or depression condition.
But what’s so bad about being addicted to sex? You become so preoccupied with it that everything else in tour life doesn’t matter. Including, relationships, family, jobs and your health. The first warning sign of obsession is when you become consumed with thoughts about sex to the point that it becomes the only goal in life. Everything you do is about getting to sex and sexual satisfaction, it’s all you think about and that’s what makes everything else in your life fall apart.
Then the lack of control starts, even when you know you shouldn’t be doing it you continue, like in the office, with strangers, or you can’t get off the internet and away from the porn site when you should be doing something else. Then tolerance, you need to increase the activity to achieve satisfaction, like an alcoholic who needs more and more drinks. You need more and more sex to feel better or even deaden or numb the feelings.  You could have destructive behavior, like a collapsed marriage, job loss, etc. think about STD exposure too, at first they practice safe sex, but often in frenzy or in serial sex protection may take a back seat. Some sex addicts also masturbate until their organs are cut or become raw. Some masochists allow themselves to be beaten to the point of serious injury.
Treatment options are individual and group therapy as a part of the 12 step program, couples therapy, medication, especially if someone is diagnosed with bipolar disorder, depression, generalized anxiety, or OCD, the same types of drugs that are used to treat anxiety and depression could be tried to combat sex addiction.
At the point when you find sex addicts seeking help, it’s when they’ve hit rock bottom.

I totally know what you're saying. I think out of all the addictions this is one that people think is unreal and think what's wrong with wanting sex all the time, but it is a serious and needs to be addressed. Sex addiction can ruin relationships and marriages and families and to me that sounds like a problem and any kind of addiction. There are specialized counselors for this and I think that if you are experiencing this you should seek help and not feel embarrassed or ashamed. I think when you accept the fact that you do need help is so amazing and I wish everyone luck with any problems they are facing in life.
