A Useful Tool for Self-Assessment

Answer these twelve questions to assess whether you may have a problem with
sexual addiction.

1. Do you keep secrets about your sexual or romantic activities from those important
to you? Do you lead a double life?
2. Have your needs driven you to have sex in places or situations or with people you
would not normally choose?
3. Do you find yourself looking for sexually arousing articles or scenes in
newspapers, magazines, or other media?
4. Do you find that romantic or sexual fantasies interfere with your relationships or
are preventing you from facing problems?
5. Do you frequently want to get away from a sex partner after having sex? Do you
frequently feel remorse, shame, or guilt after a sexual encounter?
6. Do you feel shame about your body or your sexuality, such that you avoid touching
your body or engaging in sexual relationships? Do you fear that you have no sexual
feelings, that you are asexual?
7. Does each new relationship continue to have the same destructive patterns which
prompted you to leave the last relationship?
8. Is it taking more variety and frequency of sexual and romantic activities than
previously to bring the same levels of excitement and relief?
9. Have you ever been arrested or are you in danger of being arrested because of
your practices of voyeurism, exhibitionism, prostitution, sex with minors, indecent
phone calls, etc.?
10. Does your pursuit of sex or romantic relationships interfere with your spiritual
beliefs or development?
11. Do your sexual activities include the risk, threat, or reality of disease, pregnancy,
coercion, or violence?
12. Has your sexual or romantic behavior ever left you feeling hopeless, alienated
from others, or suicidal?

If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, we would encourage you
to seek out additional literature as a resource or to attend a Sex Addicts Anonymous
meeting to further assess your needs.
