About Sex Addiction

In the past, a doctor I was seeing told me I was sex-addicted and tried to make me take some strange medication. When I looked it up, I found out it was medication for schizophrenia. I told him, “Yeah, I’m taking it,” threw it away, and had sex with other people too. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Marika

Not really. Speaking personally, I never cheated even once while I was married, but after getting divorced, I feel like I discovered the kind of adult fun I’d always been curious about. At first, I simply wanted to see women’s bodies and watch them enjoy themselves. There were many times when I went to adult entertainment establishments two or three times in a day, seeing different women each time. I even went through a phase where I was really into squirting. I’ve probably been with several hundred women, so in that sense, I’m satisfied with my experience of adult fun. These days, I’m perfectly content if I can be intimate with a few women a couple of times a month, so don’t you think I’ve calmed down quite a bit? lol

No, there isn’t.

Back when I hadn’t had sex for a while, I found myself thinking, “I really want to have sex,” and wondered if I might be a sex addict. But after joining a dating club and receiving guidance from Dr. Mac, I learned that sex addiction isn’t really a thing. And when I thought about it, I realized, “That does make sense, haha,” and was satisfied with that explanation. The woman I talk to is one of my dating partners. It’s hard to find someone you can discuss things like this with, so she’s very important to me.

There aren’t any.

This gets a little technical, but you often hear the term “sex addiction,” and even psychiatrists sometimes use it. Strictly speaking, though, there’s actually no disorder called “sex addiction.” The WHO (World Health Organization) has established the ICD (International Classification of Diseases), but “sex” isn’t listed under addictions. Alcohol and drugs are, but not sex. Think about it carefully: sexual desire is a basic biological drive, just like hunger and sleep. Calling it an addiction doesn’t really make sense. You might say, “Having excessive sexual desire interferes with daily life—can’t anything be done about it?” But since it isn’t an illness, it isn’t something that can be treated as such. So what should you do? Just have as much sex as you possibly can, as thoroughly as you can. That said, sex requires a partner, and that’s what makes things difficult. So you may think this distress must be an illness, but actually, it isn’t. There is a somewhat similar mental disorder called compulsive sexual behavior disorder. People with it are casually referred to as “sex addicts,” but simply having a strong sex drive isn’t enough for that diagnosis. There are diagnostic criteria, one of which is that “repetitive sexual behavior becomes the central focus of a person’s life, to the detriment of other interests, activities, and responsibilities.” Not many people take it that far. I don’t meet the criteria either. So if you have a strong sex drive and want to have sex at least three times every day, that’s still within the normal range. If you’re slim around the waist, leave a comment for Mac, a male member at the Nagoya branch, saying, “You’re wonderful.” I’ll teach you lots more about sex addiction, lol.

Good evening~ I can’t sleep, so here’s my answer ( . .)" I’ve never felt that way myself. But when I went without intimacy, I did feel a sense of despair. Still, I don’t think it was dependence. It was more like feeling physically lonely. Are you the type who tries to fill emotional loneliness through physical intimacy? Or are you the type who is fine with anyone (sorry if that sounds harsh), simply has an excess of sexual desire, and seeks the pleasure of orgasm more than affection and cuddling?
