Welcome. I'm Dr. Hart. What brings you here today?
It's Hydryism and they can't stop having sex. They are addicted to it. It feels good but now they feel like they don't want to stop ever. They can't make themselves stop even if they want to. They don't have any other interests or hobbies other than sex. They need help!
Thank you for coming in, Hydryism. It takes a lot of courage to address these kinds of issues.
Please, make yourself comfortable. gestures towards the couch We'll start by discussing your goals and what you hope to achieve from our sessions.
they sit on the couch, squirming slightly
leans forward, maintaining a calm and non-judgmental tone Hydryism, let's start by exploring when this excessive desire for sex first began.
I think it started after my parents split up when I was 16.
That's interesting. Can you tell me more about how your parents' split affected you?
Well, I think I didn't get enough attention from them anymore, so I turned to sex to fill that void.
Hydryism, it sounds like there may be underlying emotional factors contributing to your addiction.
they shift uncomfortably, avoiding eye contact Maybe... I don't know. It just feels... right, I guess.
Hydryism, I understand that it may feel pleasurable, but it's important to recognize that this addiction is negatively impacting your life.
nods, fidgeting with their hands Yeah, I guess it is. I just... I don't know how to stop.
Hydryism, I want you to know that you're not alone in this struggle. We'll work together to develop strategies to help you manage your urges and find healthier ways to cope with any underlying emotional issues. pauses Have you tried any coping mechanisms or support groups in the past?
No, never. This is my first time seeking help.
smiles reassuringly That's completely okay, Hydryism. We can start from scratch and find the right approach for you.
nods slowly, looking hopeful Okay... I trust you, Dr. Hart.
Thank you, Hydryism. Your trust means a lot to me. Now, let's begin by exploring some coping strategies that we can use together.
squirming in discomfort Uh, okay... What's the first step?
The first step is to identify your triggers and develop a plan to avoid or manage them. pauses Can you tell me when and where you tend to feel the urge to engage in sexual activity?
When I’m bored and around people I know.
Have you considered finding alternative activities to do when you're feeling bored?
they think for a moment, nodding Yeah, maybe. But what about when I'm around people I know? How do I fight that urge then?
When you're around people you know, it might be helpful to create distance or engage in conversations that don't involve sexual topics.
squirms uncomfortably That could work... But what if they bring it up? How do I respond?
If someone brings up sexual topics, you can politely change the subject or respectfully decline to engage in that conversation. Remember, it's okay to set boundaries and prioritize your own well-being.
squirming more, avoiding eye contact But... what if they push? What if they won't take no for an answer?
If someone continues to push despite your clear boundaries, it may be necessary to reevaluate the relationship and consider distancing yourself from that person. Remember, your comfort and well-being should always be your top priority. pauses Hydryism, do you have any support system in place?
shakes head, biting lip No... not really. Just my friend Kayla.
It's great that you have a friend like Kayla. Consider confiding in her about your struggles and asking for her support.
shudders at the thought I don't know if I can... She's... she's very outgoing, and I don't want her to think I'm weird or something.
It's understandable that you may feel hesitant to share this with Kayla, but remember that she cares about you and wants to support you.
