Sexual Addiction. Is it for Real?
Description
Celebrities have made headline news for allegedly entering sex addiction rehab clinics following bouts of serial philandering. But is sexual addiction a diagnosable disorder or simply an excuse for bad behavior? In this program two men speak candidly about how their sexual compulsions shattered their lives. Paul, a family man and church-goer, had a fondness for pornography and escort services that eventually got him arrested. David, an ex-porn star and former addict himself, is sponsoring Paul's recovery in a 12-step rehab program. In addition, psychotherapist Marty Klein explains why he is highly critical of calling hypersexuality an addiction.
