Sexual addiction is described as having a pathological connection with sex (Carnes and Kenneth); typical conditions of sexual addiction involve behaviors such as recurrent sexual urges. It is as a result of bio-chemical imbalances in the brain of a person and occurs through a series of cycles that are triggered by various hormones key of which include serotonin and dopamine. In the first phase of sexual addiction a person is seen to start being obsessed with activities that are sexual in nature (Carnes and Kenneth); these are the initial symptoms that initially manifest themselves within an individual which gradually leads to worsened cases of sexual stimulation.
The second phase of sexual addiction involves constant engagement in sexual behaviors that promote arousal such watching of pornographic materials (Carnes and Kenneth). Finally in the third phase the individual becomes very much engaged in actual sexual exercises quite often and by this time a person is described as being sexually addictive (Carnes and Kenneth). Below is a discussion of how various chemicals in the brain brings about this phenomenon of sexual addiction.
Foremost, sex addicts are addicted to the “feel good†feeling that is achieved through engaging in sexual activities; to achieve this feeling high rates of dopamine and serotonin secretions must occur in the brain. The endorphine and dopamine hormones are responsible for the exchange of information between various cells and are attributed to the smooth flow of other hormones. Excessive desire and urge for sex is actually a direct effect of increased dopamine levels in a person, when this happens regularly it is termed as sexual addiction and would mean the individual is deliberately focusing on ensuring that these dopamine levels remain high in the brain.
The implication is that such a person is always sexually stimulated and unlikely to stay for long without engaging in sex.
