Your amygdala is enlarged, and the neural pathways to the prefrontal cortex are diminished or inhibited. You find yourself constantly overtaken by thoughts of sex: remembering past sexual experiences, fantasizing about new ones, and the like. You find yourself imagining people naked, constantly wondering about their sexual practices. You minimize your own senses of guilt, shame, and worthlessness by fixating on a state of arousal. This same state of arousal, however, has become diminished. You find that you are not enjoying sexual encounters like you used to. You find that you are irritable and can often feel totally distracted. You miss vital information in your day-to-day life because of your anxieties and ruminations on sex. You spend hours and hours of your life looking for sex, watching sex, drawing sex, wanting sex.
But you cannot fill the void in your life with sexual encounters. There are emotional, intellectual, and social aspects of sex that you have been neglecting, and sex is not fulfilling without those components. You look back and see how you have objectified yourself and how you have objectified yourself. You start to see through your own obscurations, and you notice how damaging your behaviours have been. You reflect on how dangerous your behaviours have been. You grow dismayed at how often you have practiced infidelity. You admit to yourself that many of your behaviours were probably illegal and often dangerously public. You start to look inward and see the missing pieces of your own life that you are trying to fix and satisfy with sex and thoughts about sex.
In a single moment of clarity, you decide that you have had enough. You admit to yourself that you are a sex addict, and you realize that sex alone can never satisfy your cravings and lack of self-worth. Admitting that you have a problem is the first step. Now you are on the road to recovery.

In the furry community and in the LGBTQ+ community, we have often been taught that sex in and of itself is a shameful, dangerous act that should be repressed and subdued. While being far from the truth, it's also important to realize that sexual activities all carry with them emotional, intellectual, and social components to them. It can be even more important to realize when you have a problem and when you need to find insight and help. Not all sexual practices are healthy or fulfilling, but together, we can all begin to heal our shame and to understand the necessary contexts for healthy sexual interactions that can bring a lasting sense of gratification, connection, and peace.
Sex is not to be condemned. But not all love making is created equally. Sometimes, it can be a problem.

I've been addicted towards sexual things since I was a teenaged, from my early adolescence. I was 12 years old when I figured out what both furries and little fur was then at about age 14 I found myself having these abnormal fantasies around characters that obviously should only insight a nurturing and parental instincts, once I figured out that one these characters aren't real and two they're prepubescent and younger looking.
At age 14 you don't think about these things since to a teenaged mind you're just extremely flooded with hormones due to the developing body, as I got older I still noticed how I was preferring younger characters which increased in unnecessary gulit; unnecessary shame. My mother has been through child molestation herself and when she seen what type of porn I was looking at just caused her craziness to become even worse; the moment she found the porn that I've been looking at she falsely accused my dad of doing these activities when in reality it was just me exploring my fetishes.
I didn't know why but the moment I learned about through Wikipedia that in real life you cannot ejaculate below a certain age, I dream about marrying a little nine year old fox cub, age is extremely important to my psyche; it's not a power dynamic issue, it's a I can't get the type of love that I want problem. I'd make the cub that I deeply feel a loving connection towards I'd make sure that the little cub would feel comfortable and powerful, I'd be submissive, if anything I'd be willingly extremely weak around him.
It's not because the character is a "easy target" why that I love, the 5 years I kept completely away from cubs and anything remotely related to young, prepubertal looking characters was my shame, gulit and international demonization. I don't touch children, I would never do that kind of thing, I remember just staying utterly away from cubs for so many years only to be met with a house eviction and a stay at one of my aunt's place after that eviction incident, my suffering is more because my object if desire just wouldn't be able to consent in reality; it's a conundrum, in fantasy they're always consenting while the reality greatly differs. I am in my adulthood now and honestly the past has became a PTSD episode, I've seen a dead baby kitten before as a young child, it caused so much trauma. These moments made me realize how much I loved most anything young, even in denial of paraphilia you do have fantasies show up in your dreams, the subconscious mind conjures up these fantasies no matter how much you've been in denial.
For me I would rather date and marry a little 6 to 10 year old cub rather than an adult, adults just don't satisfy me.

Yeah, for others, it might be of use. Though I just read the guy's profile and he says he is a pedophile. Seems like your comment was spot on, after all.
