phrases like “sex addiction” get thrown around a little too casually for my taste, but genuinely—and I’m not saying this from a place of judgment, tbc—if you place so much priority on sex that not getting laid is enough to drive you to suicidality, then you’ve got some kind of underlying issue that needs to be addressed and I hope you’ll speak to a therapist

1) sex is just a pleasurable act, it’s not generally a human need, this is a disproportionate amount of importance to assign it 2) please ask yourself what it is about sex that makes it so important to you—the feeling of being desired? the mutual vulnerability? whatever it is, I promise there are other ways to achieve that too 3) desperation for sexual attention very frequently veers into a sense of entitlement, which is a bad and destructive thing

How do I make it feel less necessary? Everyone around me is doing it
