As you search for information and resources to help you, you will probably notice that there are several names for problematic sexual behavior such as, sexual addiction, sexual compulsivity, and hyper-sexual disorder. What to call the problem is for the most part an argument between professionals in the field. The various ways the issue is defined (and the theory behind it) is the reason for the different names. Hence, with different types of diagnosis come different treatment options.
The term addiction can be a sticking point for many professionals because the term has become vastly overused. However, as our technological abilities increase, scientific research as begun to show how even behavioral addictions such as to food, are processed differently in the brain and hence, how the addictive process is a biological condition of its own.
The point is that no matter what the professional argue about calling the problem, there is help available for you.
