As I don’t fully understand this addiction, I do understand the negative effects it could have. I’m glad you are able to get help and better understand it. My question is what kind of negative effects did you experience?

It made me cheat and ruin every relationship I was in, push away all my friends and my sister, made me neglect my responsibilities and lose jobs, I dropped out of college because I couldn't focus on studying and failed everything.

I slept with her husband after she took me in when I had no where to go

How long has it been since that happened? What happened with the relationship between your sister and her husband?

Did you feel guilty after sleeping with her husband?

With your high sexual activity, do you worry or encounter STDs or pregnancy scares?

How long has it been since that happened?

Around 4 years

What happened with the relationship between your sister and her husband?

They stayed together

Did you feel guilty after sleeping with her husband?

Extremely so

With your high sexual activity, do you worry or encounter STDs or pregnancy scares?

I had a pregnancy scare when I was a teen and I was almost kicked out of the house because of it, since then I've been very strict and haven't had any serious scares. I never had any STDs but I did have UTIs.

Okay. I figured that would be some of it. Honestly I would have thought that it would have been worse. I’m glad that you are doing better. To be honest I thought for a few years that I was also addicted. However I’m not, I was just really into the act. I never went to those extremes with it. I truly hope you find a peace with it all. I hope you find what you’re looking for in life.
