Its great that he knows he has a problem. Sex addiction is a disease much like Alcoholism. The best treatment is a combination of 12 step work, individual counseling, group therapy, good nutrition, exercise and a spiritual program. Statistically if he can add all of these to his life, he has an 85% chance of recovery.

There are several sex addiction 12 step groups. I recommend L.A. or Lustaholics Anonymous. Their web site is sexaddictionhelp.org It runs much like an AA group. Anyone can do their program regardless of religion, sexual orientation, race, gender, or marital status. They have a great success rate if you can show up and follow the steps.

There are people there with 15 years of sobriety. What is sobriety? Freedom from the obsession to lust. This includes masterbation, voyurism, affairs, infidelity, love addiction.

I would also encourage you to get help for your self. Sex addicts and love addicts and lust addicts do better if their family or significant other also gets involved in recovery. The organization for the family members would be CODA or S-Anon. The web address for S-anon is sanon.org or also serenitysite.orgh

Good luck. You can have a loving meaningful relationship if both of you are willing to change.

If you need a support group to figure out what your problem is how do you know which one is for you?

To find a suitable support group, you can consider factors such as the specific issue or challenge you are facing, the format (in-person or online), the demographics of the group members, and the overall approach or philosophy of the group. It's helpful to visit different groups, ask questions, and observe to see which one resonates most with you and where you feel most comfortable sharing and receiving support.

What does it mean to dream a guy that is not your boyfriend every night?

It is important to understand that dreams speak through symbols - what is seen in a dream usually represents something quite different. So in this particular dream, the "guy" actually might represent the dreamer's boyfriend. Alternatively, depending on the context and action of the dream, the "guy" might represent one's father or boss or a problem that needs attention in real life.

Your boyfriend and you fight a lot and he won't take you back this time what should you do?

If you and your boyfriend fight a lot you guys aren't meant for each other in this relationship. But if you want to stay together you have to talk to each other and find a solution to your problem because not talking to each other won't solve anything for you OR YOUR RELATIONSHIP. So what I would do in a problem like this is talk to a cheap therapist so you can find out your problem.
