Like any addiction, sex addiction can cause people to spiral into lifestyles centering around their behaviors. Bad outcomes include unwanted pregnancies, STDs, HIVs, arrest for sexual crimes, loss of marriage, family or jobs, depression and even suicide.
Sex addiction can be treated by professionals and should be manageable if the client is fully engaged in the treatment.
CommentThe zest of some people for melodrama about sex is amazing.Obviously, there is much more to life than sex, but the above answer and especially its talk about crimes and suicide (!) needs taking with several tablespoons full of salt. It's perfectly obvious that the answer is trying to frighten people.
In any case, where sex is concerned, talk of addiction is figurative, not literal. There's no question of any chemical dependency of the kind one gets with nicotine ot alcohol, for example.
If you have a personality that is susceptible to addiction, it is possible to be addicted to anything, even sex. More likely, though, you wouldn't be addicted to the act of sex as much as you would be addicted to the pleasurable release of hormones associated with an orgasm.
How much suboxone will show up in a drug screening?
Suboxone does not show up in drug tests. It only shows up if they specifically test for it, which my doctors say is very rare.
you can avoid medicine abuse by not overdosing on pills, not taking pills or medicine that is not proscribed to you, or you can go to therapy or medicine abuse classes so you can overcome medicine abuse or so you won't start going or getting into medicine abuse.
How long after taking 8m of suboxone will it be ok to take codeine?
Just make sure you wait 6-8 hours after taking a diladid! People say 12hrs but i took two 30mg oxy codone the other day at 10:30 a.m. & then took an 8mg suboxone at 4:00 p.m. and It did me real good! So bottom line I would say wait a min. of 6 hrs!

Why does a recovering drug addict brakes a relationship?
You just lost the best lover you ever had. Don't rush into a relationship to fill the void. Let someone approach you and even then be hesitant. Be strong, and avoid "Euphoric Recall", that is, remebering how good it felt when you were using. You have to force yourself to focus on something else. Good luck...Stay Strong. Most 12 step programs advocate not becomming involved in a relationship for at least the first year of recovery. You need to become comfortable with yourself before you can be comfortable with someone else. As recovering adicts (alcoholics fall into the same catagory- even though some don't think so) we have a hard time dealing with reality, which is why we seek chemical release. Until you can be comfortable facing reality without any chemical crutch, you won't be able to have a successful relationship. This process usually takes at least a year... some take much longer. Good luck in your recovery. (P.S. I'm not just citing some psycho-babble- I've been sober for 24 years)

Is there two types of addiction psychological and physical?
Yes, those are both types of addiction. Physical addiction is when the body gets used to the drug and you have to have it for the body to function normally. That is why alcoholics have to go to detox centers. But they still have a psychological dependence, and if they stop treatment at that point, they will likely start using again and get the physical dependence back. So they then have to treat the psychological urges to use the substance and the underlying causes.

Can you take suboxone and a diet pill?
No. The suboxone will stop the morphine from working, and you will not get high.
Also, if you are physically addicted to morphine and take suboxone (with a needle or even under the tongue), it will cause you to go into immediate withdrawl. This is one reason why suboxone is used to treat individuals who have been addicted to morphine and other opiates.
Also, combining morphine and suboxone increases the chance of respiratory depression (a decreased rate of breathing). If respiratory depression is severe enough it can cause death. Read all about suboxone at www.subutex.info

Why do you stay with a drug addict?
Forget It If They Are On Drugs Now They Will Be When They Die. Do Yourself A Favor. Get To Where You Can Leave, That Is When You Walk Out You Have Already Moved All The Things You need With You. Go And Never Look Back. God Bless This isn't as simple a question to answer because deep feelings are involved. Once you had a relationship with this person, but when people do drugs they turn into a completely different person. You've hung onto the thought that something you might say to him may make him/her seek help, but the truth is that unless he/she wants help then he/she has to hit the bottom of the barrel. By staying with him/her you are enabling this behavior. People who do a lot of drugs will steal from you, beat you if they think you have anything of value and are hiding it from them (they need that fix because they physically hurt) and no one will stand in their way. Suggest he/she go into a proper detox center and if he/she refuses then you are going to have to leave. You did nothing wrong and you aren't letting him/her down. Many drug addicts have to hit complete bottom and some bounce back because they want too and some die. Good luck! There are people out there that can overcome drug addiction. The important thing to remember is... they have to want to. If they offer to go to rehab after they have gone to prison or are backed into a corner, it's not the same. You need to have respect for yourself. I have been with a person for 5 years. I am tired. I feel like I've aged BECAUSE of this person. The stress is almost unbearable and I'm a laid back person. Please, if you're reading this looking for an answer, the answer is no. They drain you financially. They don't care. No matter what they say, they care more about the drugs than they do about you. If they cared more about you (or themselves), they would quit. By leaving them, you are making sure you aren't an enabler and HELPING them. Let them come back after they have RECOVERED. You will be associated with their old way of life if they get clean. Consider this your sign from God, your warning.
