Unfortunately that is true. Our whole system is set up to allow treatments for assorted mental disorders whose creation was due to a host of mental health professionals needing justification to bill for their treatments. I am heavily involved as an erstwhile “mechanic” in this system who tries to sort out the fake from the real and advise insurers and others accordingly.
I don’t believe sexual and food addictions are real or actual disorders. I don’t believe in gambling addiction. I have alcoholics in my family but I never became an alcoholic. At the end of the day I believe in freedom of choice and accountability for one’s own behaviors.
I have it in my ability and power to control how much I have sex. Deep down I know this and so do all of you. When it’s NOT controlled, it’s weakness- not addiction.
