My addiction to natures most natural

deleted_user
I think sex is natures most natural desire and I naturally desire it. But is there really a such thing as having a sex addiction? Is there really a way to break free? I've been sexual since a very young age. I've had multiple partners all my life and choose a little fun over monogamy. I'm a swinger and date guys who swing but it always ends up with a split since I need something new and adventurous. How do I learn to untie myself from this? The extents that I will go to include sleeping with ppl I am not interested in or the least bit attracted to and without protection if none is available. I will awake next day and be disgusted by what I have engaged in but then sort out my next adventure without concern for myself. How does one stop or at the very least slow down a little. I know it's not the best thing I can do to my body but I feel like I need it or I'll go postal. Does this sound like I need a little extra attention to the situation or am I just a little over delighted with the human flesh?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Honestly, you may consider joining an SA or SAA type of program, and consider some form of sexual addiction counseling.
If we can help you here, please hang around and read other's posts. This is a subject that seems to have come up a lot lately, and there are many great answers to the questions you have asked.
Feeling disgusted with yourself, putting yourself at risk and all the rest isn't how you want to be or you wouldn't have posted. You took the first step...learn all you can about this disease...it will keep the boot on your neck forever if you let it. I don't think you want that for yourself. Thanks for being so honest! Good luck to you
Really, sex is my addiction, too. It's better than any drug I've ever tried. It is my escape when my day has been tough, it is my power when I want to feel an ego boost, and it is my shame when I wake up in the morning knowing I've hurt my spouse out of weakness for that "thrill" of anonymous sex.
I'm recovering for 8 years and "sober" for 4.
If you think you might have a problem, you probably do. I'm proud of you for seeing that in yourself! It takes a big person to admit their weaknesses.
This is a great step towards recovery. There are many other ways to help you through, like SAA groups (like alcoholics anonymous) in your area that is a 12-step program, and there's also therapy with a licensed sex therapist. Options to consider if you're still feeling like you'd rather get a handle on your feelings.
No matter what, I'm glad you opened up to us! Hang in there.
MiZz, I apologize for his behavior. It is inappropriate and unnecessary, and I hope that you will continue to come here and talk about this with us. There are a great group of people here who genuinely care about helping you and offering support and advice. Please don't let one bad apple spoil it for you.
There's not many serious ppl on here so I've been looking to make friends with ppl who really seem to be serious with stopping this addiction. So far no luck but thats ok. I don't have many support ppl so it gets kinda tough.
There are some really great folks on here that are serious about getting this under control,and I am certainly one of them. I've battled this for 28 years, and am now clean just over a year. If I can do anything to help, just let me know.
