I need help with my sex addiction

I am a sex addict. I have been to prostitutes, young prostitutes and have had unprotected sex with f*** buddies. I lied to my girlfriend when she asked me if I had been with anybody else and told her no, I haven’t apologized for my hurting her and risking her life and I haven’t cared. I risked giving her an STD that could kill her and take her away from her son and family and I haven’t cared about that either.

I have only thought about me and what I want and not about any one else’s feelings or how I would make them feel when they find out. I just want more and more sex and I haven’t cared where it came from. For me it turned into any hole will do. My masterbating, porn watching and going to prostitutes increased to where I dehumanized women. It was all about what I wanted to do and get my ego stroked. I didn’t want to be told no, that’s why I went to young prostitutes, because I felt they wouldn’t tell me no. I didn’t look at it for what it is, sex trading and trafficking of these girls. That if they didn’t do what I wanted they were beaten and threatened. I didn’t care about them, only me and what I wanted.

I have continued to lie and not take responsibility for my actions. I need help from people like me and how they are getting past their sex addiction. People who understand what I am and have gone through.

Would suggest you try being selfless and stop living for your own gains. I turned it around by only thinking of others and saying in my head the word selfless. It did lead me to another addiction but it only effects me and not so much others. You will find giving is more pleasurable than taking. It worked for me . And my ex was happy I woke up to my selfishness.
Nothing is easy but doing for others without remuneration is so.simple. I hope I hope this has helped a little.

I have been married for 34 years and have been to massage parlors for many years. I have been probably over 500 times over the years. I go not just for some form of release, but it is an escape for me and where I am treated like a king even though I am paying for it.

How are you doing?

I appreciate your honesty and the fact that you’re here in this forum but can I ask you, why are you here? Do you really want to get rid of your addiction? And why?
