Sexual addiction is a compulsive need to engage in sexual activities, leading to negative consequences such as relationship problems, health issues, and interference with daily responsibilities. This condition is characterized by an inability to control or resist sexual urges, despite the negative impact on one's life. Symptoms may include excessive use of pornography, multiple affairs, risky sexual behavior, and a preoccupation with sexual thoughts. Treatment typically involves therapy, support groups, and medication to address underlying emotional issues and cognitive distortions related to sex.
