Does my child has a sex addiction?
It is no secret that sex addiction is a growing problem. It can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, race or background. It does not discriminate and it does not care about the issues you are dealing with. It will affect everyone differently. Sex addiction can ruin relationships, harm families and even cost lives. The cause for this addiction can be rooted in childhood emotional trauma, bullying or even simple low self esteem.
Characteristics and symptoms of a sex addiction
Pornography addiction can manifest itself in many ways. One of the most common symptoms is secrecy, which means that a person hides their habits from the people around them. So if you notice that your loved one spends more time in their room and shows little interest in spending time with the family, watch out.
