Talking to one of our counsellors in 1-2-1 counsellor chat is private.
This means that whatever you say stays between you and Childline.
The service is completely anonymous and confidential — we will never ask you for any information that would identify who you are.What is relevant is if someone feels that they are engaging in any sexual activity that they can no longer control and is likely to result in harm to themselves, a partner or partners, or to family and friends.So, 'being sexually addicted' is not defined by the activity itself but by the possible negative effect on the individual's quality of life and on those around them.Sexual Compulsives Anonymous is a 12-step support group for people dealing with sexual addiction or sexual compulsivity.It was first established in 1973 and is based on the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
