Sex addicts remove themselves from their family, their spouses. It is tragic, actually.<BR/><BR/>VX: your family may not have had all the information possible. If she was a sex addict, it might make everything else make sense.

I did not know this cousin really...but I knew her family...her brother and her mom very well(who found her hanging in the closet at 2am). she was younger than me, so we just never really played together like i did with my cousins my age. Regardless, i just felt very wierd about the whole thing...i seriously (and very disrespectfully and judgementally) just tuned the whole thing out by chalking it up to the fact that she was just some nutso i would never want to admit to being related to in any way. i cried about being such an ass like that when i read this post though. thanks for this one!!Legacy Userhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05551548946667512214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1152542133599876672006-07-10T09:35:00.000-05:002006-07-10T09:35:00.000-05:00You hit the nail on the head with this post. I ca...You hit the nail on the head with this post. I can say I've experienced everything to the point of actually going out and engaging in sex. For me, the only thing keeping me from doing that is work (and I do have a partner here at work that I've had sex with and who would do it again if I wanted.)and family life (I have four kids that take up a lot of time. My wife works nights as a nurse and is home more often than she's away. But when she's away, I'm on the internet surfing as soon as the kids are in bed. I'll spend hours looking at images and masturbating. It seems as though I'm perpetually horny and everywhere I go I'm checking out the women. Not just one type, ALL types. I masturbate several times a day, though not always to climax. I've written some erotica in the past and I always have a wet spot in my drawers when I'm done. Not from an actual climax, it's just that I'm so engrossed in the story and it's so vivid to me.<BR/><BR/>I digress. I could go on about my situations but I'm sure you've encountered everything I'd mention. I appreciate you coming forward with this addiction and I applaud you even more that you have the strength it takes to get a handle on it. You are incredibly strong to do what you've done so far in overcoming it's grip.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688380296273635896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1152541204620356372006-07-10T09:20:00.000-05:002006-07-10T09:20:00.000-05:00This is courageous stuff, Leesa, and good for you ...This is courageous stuff, Leesa, and good for you for running it. And, it is 'not' dirty, it is real, and I admire your candor. Personal honesty and avoidance of denial is a vital step in dealing with an addiction, whether it is sex, alcohol, or crack, or whatever. I am a former addictions counselor and have seen all and every manifestation of addiction, including to sex, which often goes hand-in-glove with adddictions to booze and/or drugs. There is a high that goes with sex, and an escape from mundane reality. I have been there, so I know a bit about what I am writing in your subject area. I found it did the same for me as alcohol did, which was also a negative part of my life until I addressed that about a decade ago.<BR/>So, I applaud you in this, and I applaud your courage.<BR/><BR/>IanIan Lidsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14106994463366766471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16163858.post-1152535651755539292006-07-10T07:47:00.000-05:002006-07-10T07:47:00.000-05:00nosthegametoo: A supportive partner and a good the...nosthegametoo: A supportive partner and a good therapist, actually.<BR/><BR/>kathi: I would have never guessed.
