Hey there !


im posting here to expose my problem and find others willing to discuss about it.


ive been diagnosed as having bpd when I was 19, I’m now 39.


im in a relationship but I always have this need to check out potential sex intercourses when I’m alone. I suffer of this, and I take pleasure in the same time, it’s like a drug. I like sexting, exchanging pictures, and occasionally I met some persons. Sometime it has lead to unprotected sex.


i feel shame about it, and generally I use application where I create an account that I may delete for recreate an another sometime many time in a day.


i try to not download such applications, but when I’m alone, the urge can become irresistible.


do some of you have same problem, and what you do to counter this behaviour ?


thanks,


Yoann

Hi Yoann,

Thank you for reaching out and glad to know that you want to talk about it and get help.


I can understand it must be very hard for you.


But talking definitely help, so feel free to talk any active listener here.

Have you considered seeing a therapist for your issue? I think it might be helpful for you.

Remember, you’re allowed to be human and have vulnerable moments.

Hello Yoann,

First of all I'd like to say that you're not alone. I too suffer from this kind of...addiction (don't know how else to call it, compulsion?) and I know how shameful and terrible it can feel.

I too am looking for help in this regard, since my impulse control gets out of whack when it comes to sexual 'opportunities' and it's affecting my romantic relationship greatly.

Hang in there...

Cheers,

Lavender
