Hello Marco
I am not a sex addict but I was in a long term relationship with one. Firstly I would like to congratulate you for being strong enough to admit you have a problem and secondly seeking out help for yourself. You are definitely not alone, you are not the only one in this predicament. There are lots of ways to help yourself
1. Join a support group
2. Purchase some books, Patrick Carnes is a prolific writer on this subject and Amazon have an extensive range.
3. Seek help from a professional, if you are acting out in public then you are putting yourself at risk of arrest or attack, not to mention infringing the rights of the women you are watching. There is a wonderful practise in Marylebone Lane, W1.
4. Use this site and others for support. I found a site a couple of weeks ago with online free support called Recovery Nation, it is fabulous.
5. Please don't hurt yourself. Think of all you would leave behind and how everyone would feel. You can get well!
Wishing you all the very best Marco xxx
