That’s not how addiction works

As with drugs, alcohol, etc, sex addicts can stay “clean” for extended times before relapsing. His 10 month “sober” state doesn’t mean he doesn’t still have the problem.

I see how many folks liked your post. Shows the need education that is sorely lacking.




No sir! You are the one missing the point, we all understand 'addiction" very well and even some of us that don't qualify as "sex addicts" can't stay that long without sex, this individual seems to be mistaking "unfaithfulness" for "sexual addiction" angry

You are not a sex addict,
Since you already have a girlfriend, spend more time with her, you guys should have lots of sex, together, more talk time, do things together, you will realize sex is overrated and you will barely think of sex.

Self control and building up your self esteem is all you need. I cant imagine myself in a brothel. Supposing someone I know come see me?.
I love sxx and would find it diff. to hold body for more than two weeks. But I consider myself very normal. I'm in my fifties and from my early twenties have had a vibrant sxx life but not from brothel. In fact if I know the girl to be a confirmed olosho, body fit no respond sef. It's the value you put on yourself.
You seem to know the solution. Add a massive dose of self control. Regular babe can help a bit but self control is the key.

Nna mhen, you are in your fifties, Old men dey this forum sha.

And I'm sure one teenager must have quoted you sometime in the past to insult you grin

Good evening everyone.


I have struggled with sex addiction for the past 10 years with out permanent success especially with regards to visiting and sleeping with prostitutes and keeping my mind off sex.
Presently I cant seem to keep my mind of sex and focus on my life and career.

I have a good Job and a beautiful damsel whom i have promised marriage and I am afraid I might loose any if not both of this if I don't stop,think and act NOW.



Since is a habit I learnt over time, how do I unlearn this habit permanently.

Please has anyone been able to get over sex addiction successfully.


My recent relapse after 10 months of celibacy threw me off balance and presently I have lost touch with God, friends and family because of this demeaning lifestyle.


Today after 2 weeks of relapse and wallowing in self pity, I have decided to restart all over again with strong determination to take into consideration the lesson learnt from my last relapse as I plan to adopt a better approach to ensure I conquer this habit.

I have spoken with one of spiritual director who understands sex addiction above my expectations and he is very supportive.

I have also opened up to my younger Cousin brother who also understands what it feels to suffer addiction.

I also confessed to my lady about my relapse and strong determination to quit and she is helpful and supportive but with the condition that she may not cope if I should suffer another relapse.

My addiction and its resultant consequences have made close family and friends loose their respect and confidence in me.

Above all, i feel so separated by God who have done so much for me .

I want to pick my self up and fight because of

1.God
2.Myself
3. Family
4. My girl friend


At this point I need all the help I can get to snatch out my life out of satanic bait to ruin me forever


Any professional here can please save a frustrated brother. I have not give up.









My brother, na mfm sure pass for you.

Realistic AI sex robots can change the sex industry
In 2019, sex dolls have a warm touch and can talk. Lily's contributor Danielle Braff reports that, driven by artificial intelligence, they are not just robots, but dolls. (They also cost up to $ 30,000.) Experts say consumers are willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars on sex dolls for a variety of reasons: they may be upset about dating, or use dolls in marriage to increase intimacy.

[quote author=Roadtorecovery post=85660375]I will appreciate your opinion.
I am not happy with what I am doing to my self and others. I honestly want to be a changed man. I have goals and plans for the future.okay good you are broken from it In JESUS name believe it but there must be ultimate desire to and a work to be done.it's not a day's job which is while you think you are failing.Don't see yourself as failing when you step back from your commitment rather readjust and move on you will see you are getting better.One sexual desire is natural God given its no crime Bro but in life anything you can't subject will rule over you.take yourself out of those things that spikes it up.stop being alone socialise one of the strength to your issue is you being more to yourself making you think you can always satisfy yourself.Get counsel.But learn to observe your thoughts,body system and try to see the strength of the desire why it grows so much once you know it ,what spikes it I bet you you can gradually break loose from it.Don't be perfect in one day it takes time but I tell you you already on journey.allow pains to help you too don't take too much of pleasure in it you get there Bro.

My brother... To be really sincere with you..this is a fight that would take a long time to end and there is a high probability it destroys your future marriage and also make you very unproductive in terms of thinking...

The solution is giving yourself to prayer,fasting in other to bring your flesh to subjection..Also give yourself more to the things of GOD... AND help yourself too...heaven help those who help themselves... Shun watching indecent things that would want to stimulate those thoughts through your phone, what you hear...because even if you like pray the whole of this year and keep seeing things that would stir up those thoughts.. My brother you would remain hooked forever...10 years addiction no be bean!!!.

@Poster this is my one cent but I hope it helps. Your issue is more spiritual than it is physically because the spiritual controls the physical so first thing is to work on the spiritual aspect first.
Secondly, you have an unusual sex drive (Lidibo) and it is completely natural in most cases. I also suffer from a habit that I am not proud of but I am a work in progress.
If I were to be in your shoes, what would I do?
First I will go back to God. Talking to God is the simplest thing to do in life because He is always listening however hearing from God is the most difficult because of too many distractions as you already know I presume. Now talk to God as you would talk to your earthly father, let Him know your challenge but this time, don't try to help God to help you. Allow Him to help you through it completely. You need to stop helping God to help you. Finding things to distract you is only temporary. I had a friend that told me how he cured masturbation was first to avoid the triggers and then He prays and kabash every time a thought of it comes to him, and one day he realised he doesn't feel the urge anyone.
I also need to point out that in your journey to abstainence you will have relapse, you will fall but don't allow the devil trick you into believing that you are irredeemable. Don't remain down when you fall, rise up, ask God for forgiveness and each time, the lessons learnt, the triggers, and more importantly prayers can do a long way to solving the issue.

I just found answers to the habit I wrote about (Masturbation). I also need to mention that I started masturbating about six years ago and it is not frequent, sometime, I won't for months until I let my guards down and I have not slept with any woman for over 19 years because I made that commitment (Vow) to God until marriage.

Thank you for sharing your story and I appreciate the efforts to get right with God because that's the ultimate goal

Your problem isn't addiction; you're delusional.

If you think my comment will help build your resolve to be a better person, then I'm glad it helped.
As for sympathizing on your imaginary addiction, no dice from me.
In my late teens and early twenties, there are days I had sex twice daily. Nowadays, I can do thrice a week....and it has in no way interfered with my physical, emotional or spiritual wellbeing.

Perhaps you evolved from a lineage of low libidinous hombres, and having sex once in a month is considered an addiction among you grin
Which could be the reason you went 10 months without, and still believe yourself addicted to sex.

Take a back seat, man!

Let me add this: You don't fight such "addiction" by deciding to be celibate. Not saying you have an addiction, but for the purpose of this baseless thread, let's agree that you're an addict (at least that concession would make you happy grin)

An addict, apart from going for counseling, is not expected to become celibate. It is not like a substance addiction which is destructive. Sex is beneficial and even healthful for matured folks.
A sex addict is still expected to have a measured, planned sex life. Practicing abstinence isn't the logical route to counter it. No sire.

Anyhow, its good to fuel your imagination. A sex addict is what you are aspiring to become in 2020 grin grin grin

Be determined, go to God with prayers

You already know where your problem is

Get married and settle down quickly

By the time you have school fees, house rent, utility bills to pick up and feeding

Your dick will go flaccid

From there you will be too busy to go out to meet them

You are behaving this way because you don't have responsibilities that waits family men

If you like, three months after your wife puts to bed, impregnate her again and again

When those kids starts their wahala, your dick will be calm
