Question by leina: Do you believe sexual addiction is real or an excuse?
I’m taking a human sexuality class for my marriage and therapy program. My topic is on sexual addiction. Many within the psychology community seems divided as to the fact if this disorder is real. Now I want your opinion.

Do you think sex addiction is real? Why and why not?

Also, what behaviors or symptoms do you feel would describe sex addiction.

Best answer:

Answer by kat
In some cases it is real, while some (sick) people use it as an excuse.

I think it is real because people can get addicted to anything and some people do it too much, which can lead to addiction.

I’m not sure of the symptoms.
