Show notes

Dr. Sandra Morgan and Dave Stachowiak talk to Dr. Sibylle Georgianna about sexual compulsivity and discuss common misconceptions. Key Points Even if there is a lack of consensus on how to define problematic behaviors, sexual compulsion needs to be taken seriously. Even if free will exists, the complexity of the impact on (drug induced) addiction on women's’ sexuality cannot be underestimated. The presence of an addiction impairs decision making (including the ability to consent). Even if problematic behaviors stop, a comprehensive treatment and multi-faceted level of support to replace addictive behaviors with long-term, holistic health is needed. Underdeveloped decision making, information processing, and lack of emotional maturity (including trauma bonding) are likely in individuals affected by trauma and addiction.
