New Theories / Could I have a Sexual Illness Syndrome?
« on: 25/06/2010 06:40:56 »
I have not posted for 18 months. 9 months ago I completely stopped being sexual with my partner and all signs of Pre-orgasmic illness (25% of the problem) and Post Orgasmic Illness (75% of the problem) disappeared. There has been no pitiful and incomprehensible demoralization, no depression, no fatigue, no confusion...nothing, absolutely no signs. This tells me that this problem is, for this particular class of individual (Me), only solved with complete sexual abstinence...exactly like that of an alcoholic.
What baffled me so, 18 months ago, on the POIS board was the complete unwillingness to consider chronic masturbation as as addiction, an illness that requires specific 12 step treatment. I've seen what sex addicts in their disease are like with their white rage and control and want no part of that type of abuse I experienced 18 months ago.
But, the truth remains the truth, regardless of control, rage and abuse.
I have not masturbated for 20 years this Saturday June 26th 2010...and that helped me greatly. It taught me that if I could not stop doing something that was hurting me I needed to get help, and I had the humility to do that, 20 years ago.
It did not solve the problem completely. Three years ago I gave up being orgasmic and like the POIS BOYS, it helped enormously.
Still the problem was not solved. When I stopped being sexual completely the problem disappeared.
All the pills, powders, vitamins, teas, patches, shots and therapies avoid the only important question: If you're doing something that hurts you, why don't you stop?
There are four sexual addiction programs in the world that can help you. If you have an individual, who you are letting control you, which stops you from getting the help you need, you may need to go to CODA first, to get away from him.
