Addictive attempts to control sexual activity may take the form of trying to inhibit sexual activity and pleasure so as to try to achieve some preconceived goal through inhibition; or the addictive attempts to control sexual activity may take the form of trying to stimulate sexual activity and pleasure so as to try to achieve some preconceived goal through such stimulation. In each case there is likely to be some form of frustration of the efforts. Sexuality is not a technique which is readily amenable to satisfying use or abuse for the achievement of preconceived goals. The goals which are sought through the addictive control of sexuality tend to recede into the distance as they are approached. The dilemma lies in the manner of approach to sexuality, not in sexuality and sexual activity. If the manner of approach is that of an addict seeking a fix, the joy of healthy sexual relationships is frustrated. Since sexual activity is essential to continued personal and communal integrity, addictions which are fixated upon sexuality are somewhat different than are addictions which are fixated upon substances and activities which are not essential to continued personal and communal integrity; e.g., alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, etc. It is not as easy to avoid all suggestion of sexual relationships in a recovery program, as it is to avoid all suggestion of those foci of addiction which are not essential to personal and communal integrity.
