Sex Addiction Hotline

Sexual addiction affects up to 6% of American adults, per the latest info from the National Institute of Health. Also known as hypersexuality, or as compulsive sexual behavior (CSB), addiction to sex presents itself in many forms. Read about how to recognize and treat addiction to sex here. Simply put, sex addiction is when someone cannot control their sexual urges, usually to the point there are negative consequences.

The vast majority (93%) of sex addicts are also addicted to pornography. Furthermore, over half (55%) of convicted sex offenders meet the criteria for sex addiction, and over 80% of diagnosed sex addicts report having been sexually abused. 

Simply put, most sex addicts never seek treatment, and beyond that there is a severe lack of free help out there. We want to change that for the better. Here are three sex addiction helplines that are free and anonymous, available for anyone seeking help or support. Call today.
