Seriously asking....

How do you know when you are a sex addict?  One,  two,  three times a day?  orgasms...men, women?  Toys? When is enough fun enough fun?  A friend wants to know.  I mean,  I really feel sorry for her,  she is insatiable!  I've tried to help her in every single way possible,  but there is just no relief.  Can someone give me some insight on what to do with my friend?  I am afraid she is just going to explode one day.  Thanks.  OH!  Anyone have a similar story that can relate to this? Much appreciation.

Your friend needs to contact me ASAP for some counseling sessions. I am sure I can help her out with her 'prOblem.'

A good definition is when it interferes with your life.  Unless it is doing that - you are good.  Enjoy!  Toys, men, women often as you like.  But if it does interfere with your life...

If your friend fits that definition, then your friend will need to decide she really has had enough and that is time to seek help.  There are support groups for this - some based on 12 step programs;  some people swear by 12 step programs, others think they are less than useful.  I have seen people helped by them and not helped by them.  Works for some, not for others.  But it is a place to start the journey.

Honestly, however, this is something she is going to have to come to terms with.  You are not responsible (ie in control) - and anyone who has had someone close go through an addiction should understand exactly what I mean by this.  In other words, YOU can't do anything for your friend.   I am not stating that you don't want to do something - I am stating that you don't have the ability to do something.  In the end, this really is her journey.

I wish your friend (and you) good luck.  I have been down this road with a loved one's addiction;  it is not a road I would have chosen.... but sometime you have to travel where the road leads..

Adding to this well thought out response is to add that when it not only when it interferes with life, but also poses health and other risks, or they are unable to control themselves and puts themselves in harms way. The cycle that I have read/seen also has a depression component after going down a route that is unhealthy only to do it again and once again hating themselves for it.  

If that is the case, counseling is needed just like any other addiction. There are also those that say that there is no such thing as a sex addiction. I guess we all have to be our own judges on that.

I have a friend like this, wouldn't it be a coincidence if it was the same person?

Is this an addiction or an "addiction" (wink, giggle)?

I agree with the other comments that a true sex addiction can get out of control fast - when the need for sexual gratification takes precedence over everything else (including rational thought).  Then the person suffering from that addiction can begin to make some very bad decisions - financially, emotionally, personal safety-wise, and health-wise.

I have past experience with someone close to me being hypersexual and suffering from a sexual addiction.  It's a thrilling roller coaster ride that isn't nearly as fun as it sounds.  At least in the long run, anyway.  It can be a scary and exhausting experience. So I wish your friend the very best of luck and urge her to get help from a certified professional with a background in sex positive mental health therapy.

If it's an "addiction" (wink, giggle), well then - congratulations!  She is clearly enjoying life and the pleasure her body can give and receive.   Oh, and what's her number?  ;-

Are you giving my pussy away?  WTF? :)
Love,
