- Powerlessness over addictive sexual behavior.
- Resulting unmanageability of his/her life.
- Feelings of shame, pain, and self-loathing.
- Failed promises and attempts to stop acting out.
- Preoccupation with sex leading to ritual.
- Progressive worsening of negative consequence
Many of us know these characteristics first hand. We found not silver bullet or magic cure. But we did find a fellowship of other sex and love addicts. By admitting our powerlessness over our addictive sexual behavior and working the steps with a sponsor, we found that these characteristics could be put at bay and we can begin to live a life of healing.
