Addiction

• Lets be honest Men love pleasure. Men love
  pleasure so much that sometimes, a guy might
  wonder if he has a pleasure addiction. A guy
  might do all sorts of things to foster his
  healthy manhood, such as using a good member
  health crème or otherwise taking care of his
  beloved tool, but its important to remember that
  not all member health goes back to the male organ
  itself. Sometimes it goes back to the mental and
  emotional issues that might lead to problems for
  that member, such as pleasure addiction.
• But how does a man know if he has a pleasure
  addiction or simply really, really loves pleasure?

Understanding Pleasure addiction

• Also known as hypersensuality, pleasure addiction
  is defined as a preoccupation with sensual
  fantasy. It can include elements of casual or
  anonymous coupling, the excessive use of adult
  materials, self-gratifying to a point where it
  interferes with daily life, romantic intensity,
  and objectification of partners. To be classified
  as pleasure addiction, these behaviors must last
  for six months or more. It must also continue
  despite the efforts to stop it or curb it. It
  will likely have serious impacts on a persons
  personal life, social life, and ability to work.
  In fact, it can be easily compared to a gambling
  addiction, or even an addiction to alcohol and
  tablets.

But Is It Really Addiction?

• There is some debate about what actually
  constitutes an addiction. Thats because the
  object of addiction in this case, pleasure is
  used to make a person feel better. However, men
  use sensual fun and self-pleasuring all the time
  to relieve anxiety and stress. So is it really an
  addiction?
• The answer lies in how often it happens, or
  how much of a crutch it becomes. If a guy is
  constantly turning to adult materials,
  self-pleasuring, one partner after another, or
  intense sensual fantasy to stay on an even keel,
  or is doing it to excess in every way, then its
  a pleasure addiction. If a man is simply using
  self-pleasuring and the like to feel good,
  however, thats a different story. Though he
  might be capable of a pleasure addiction, if he
  can control what hes doing, hes likely not
  addicted.

Getting Help for Pleasure Addiction

• If a man thinks he has a pleasure addiction,
  he owes it to himself to ensure a healthy manhood
  and a healthy mind. To that end, its important
  to speak to a counselor who knows a great deal
  about addiction, specifically pleasure addition.
  There are many groups that will open their doors
  to meeting those who are seeking recovery, just
  as is the case with alcoholics. Cognitive
  behavioral therapy has been shown to help, as has
  certain medications to stabilize the mood.
• Its important to remember that sometimes,
  addiction cant be kicked by a guy all alone. He
  needs support around him. Its always a good idea
  to try to pull back from the addictive behaviors,
  but for the best results and regaining his life,
  a guy should always seek out professional help as
  well.

Maintaining a Healthy Manhood

• Men with a pleasure addiction often engage in
  very frequent pleasure, so they must be aware of
  how to protect their member health. The use of a
  protective device is always a good idea, as is
  the use of a superior member health crème (health
  professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which has
  been clinically proven safe and mild for skin). A
  man should look specifically for a crème that
  contains acetyl L carnitine, which can help
  restore sensitivity, as well as Shea butter,
  which can help protect and heal the raw skin.
