I think it is more the "rehab" than the sex addiction that makes me giggle a bit. Both because I associate it with physical withdrawal symptoms, but also because I associate it with sort of physical/role playing kinds of activities all in a group environment. Which doesn't really seem good for the sex addicted. I mean, rehab removes the user from the alcohol, drugs, even gambling, but being enclosed with a group of people who also are sex addicted doesn't seem to be a good way to cure them of that addiction.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Now I have this image of a gambling addiction rehab group making bets on who is going to bed with who in the sex addiction rehab group.

The rumor of sex rehab orgies could get a lot of people into therapy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
If someone were addicted to therapy, how would they treat it?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I just Googled sex addiction rehab to find out what it entails. I blame all of you for sparking that curiosity.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They sell a foldable one at Magellans but I haven`t tried it.
Ooh, intriguing! I don't fly often enough to remember from one trip to the next that a footrest would help, but, wow, could I ever use that at the theater or even in restaurants. Pretty much all chairs are too high off the ground for my legs to be comfortable for long.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Friday! What are people having for lunch today?
Leftover deep-dish pizza (cheese with sausage).
I am desperately curious about what's involved in sex addiction therapy.
They sit around not having sex?
That reminds me of the list of heart attack symptoms, which inevitably includes "many people have NO SYMPTOMS when they have a heart attack." So, like, I could be having a heart attack RIGHT NOW, since I'm not having any symptoms!
So, if sex rehab is sitting around not having sex, then I'm in sex rehab RIGHT NOW!
Here's, actually, where I don't see that it is sexual addiction. Because isn't sexual addiction, like gambling, or any other destructive behavior, the outlet but not actually what you're treated for in therapy? That is, you're a sexual addict because it's a result of underlying depression or some other mental health issue.
If you're a sexual addict because the underlying problem is you think you're entitled then in my mind you're an ass.
I don't think that feeling entitled is the underlying problem; I think it's part and parcel of the sexual addiction. I mean, I don't *know* that, because I don't really know anything about sexual addiction, but I would think that entitlement is part of the manifestation of the addiction, not the cause.
