It can take the form of addiction to pornography, sex workers and other sexual behaviours.

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.
