Assessment
Answer these twelve questions to assess
whether you may have a problem with sexual addiction.
Do you keep
secrets about your sexual or romantic activities from those
important to you? Do you lead a double life?
Have your needs
driven you to have sex in places or situations or with people you
would not normally choose?
Do you find
yourself looking for sexually arousing articles or scenes in
newspapers, magazines, or other media?
Do you find that
romantic or sexual fantasies interfere with your relationships or
are preventing you from facing problems?
Do you
frequently want to get away from a sex partner after having sex? Do
you frequently feel remorse, shame, or guilt after a sexual
encounter?
Do you feel
shame about your body or your sexuality, such that you avoid
touching your body or engaging in sexual relationships? Do you fear
that you have no sexual feelings, that you are asexual?
Does each new
relationship continue to have the same destructive patterns which
prompted you to leave the last relationship?
Is it taking
more variety and frequency of sexual and romantic activities than
previously to bring the same levels of excitement and relief?
Have you ever
been arrested or are you in danger of being arrested because of your
practices of voyeurism, exhibitionism, prostitution, sex with
minors, indecent phone calls, etc.?
Does your
pursuit of sex or romantic relationships interfere with your
spiritual beliefs or development?
Do your sexual
activities include the risk, threat, or reality of disease,
pregnancy, coercion, or violence?
Has your sexual
or romantic behavior ever left you feeling hopeless, alienated from
others, or suicidal?
If you answered yes
to more than one of these questions, we would encourage you to seek out
additional literature as a resource or to call for an assessment with a
trained sexual addiction specialist. (702 – 451 – 2141)
