Sexual Addiction: The Facts
Sexual addiction can be hard to pinpoint, and some may question if it’s even a real addiction. Sexual addiction is both legitimate and treatable, and its incidence is increasing; in the United States, it is estimated that over 30 million people suffer from this addiction, including men, women, and teens.
You might be wondering if you suffer from unhealthy habits or preoccupations, or whether you’re actually addicted to harmful sexual behaviors. Christian counseling for sexual addiction recovery might be for you if you answer yes to some of the following questions:
- Does your sexual behavior interfere with intimacy with your spouse?
- Do you use sexual behavior as a mood-booster?
- Do you keep secrets from your partner about certain aspects of your sexual behavior?
- Is your partner concerned about your sexual behavior?
- Do you want to stop inappropriate behavior but feel unable to?
- Do you feel bad about your sexual behavior?
- Are you a frequent pornography user? Do you use other explicit materials?
- Do you feel that your sexual behavior is abnormal?
- Do you find yourself preoccupied with sex?
Believers in Christ will have a desire to please Him in everything we do. Therefore, whether or not you feel that your actions are part of an addiction to sex, if they are against His teaching they are sinful and will keep you enslaved.
Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.” – John 8:34
Sexual addiction is not an issue that should be taken lightly. But it is not a hopeless condition; there is freedom in Christ. His perfect patience can embrace you as you work through the process of repentance and recovery. At Newport Beach Christian Counseling, we want to create a safe and compassionate environment for this process to take place.
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. – 2 Peter 3:9
If you’re struggling with sexual addiction, we are not here to judge or condemn you. We know that addiction often brings feelings of shame, fear of exposure, and a sense of being out of control. Sin can have you in a choke hold and it can be very difficult to escape.
We know that if you could, you would not give in to habitual sin. The power to change only comes through Christ, and we want to help you find the strength He offers and move towards healing.
