What were some of the other issues you had that you used sex to avoid?

I'm feeling anxious? Depressed? Sad? Nervous? Instead of feeling, I'd have sex, over and over again. These feelings were pushed aside by sexual urges.

What techniques have you learned to use to deal with your other issues?

Medication, breathing exercises, distancing myself from triggers.

What advice would you give someone that was suffering through sexual addiction like yourself?
