Sex addiction can be a serious issue for many people. 
It can take the form of addiction to pornography, sex workers and other sexual behaviours.  

In the latest episode of ' I Have Issues,' I discuss the issue of sex addiction.    
I'm joined by Professor Colin O'Gara,  a consultant psychiatrist for the past twenty years. Since 2007, he is the Head of Addiction Services at Saint John of God Hospital, Stillorgan, Dublin, Ireland treating patients who have a sex addiction. 

Sadly people with sex addiction can struggle to have healthy relationships and sex addiction can damage their physical and mental health. 

Listen to this episode to learn how to deal with sex addiction and if you do struggle with this issue, there is a way forward to help you deal with this addiction. 
There is no shame or embarrassment when it comes to talking about sex addiction,  it's a conversation that needs to be had and in some cases it will save lives.
