What is Sex and Porn Addiction?

​

Sex and pornography addiction involve compulsive behaviours around sexual activity or the consumption of pornography. These behaviours can lead to significant disruptions in daily life, strained relationships, and feelings of shame or guilt. Often, sex and porn addiction stem from unmet emotional needs, past trauma, or mental health struggles.

Signs of Sex and Porn Addiction:

• Preoccupation with Sexual Activity: Constant thoughts about sex or pornography.

• Escalating Behaviors: Increasing engagement in risky or compulsive sexual activities.

• Inability to Stop: Repeated unsuccessful attempts to control or reduce sexual behaviors.

• Neglect of Responsibilities: Prioritizing sexual activity over personal, professional, or relational responsibilities.

• Emotional Consequences: Feelings of guilt, shame, or isolation related to sexual behavior.
