I’m an extremely sexual person, to the point where it’s probably unhealthy. However during my day when I’m at work, or doing something important (or at least something that has expectations attached) such as eating at a restaurant, or babysitting, etc. I can control myself and function as a normal person.

Sometimes however, I get hit with these “episodes” where I become overwhelmed with urges, and it’s almost impossible to control my behaviour. Without getting descriptive, it usually manifests as taking initiative and getting involved in sexual experiences that are dangerous, or destructive, or whatever. If they happen during a time when I have responsibilities to attend to, I end up finding ways to alleviate myself in the middle of it. Whether it’s at work, in a movie theatre, whatever.

Is this common? Or am I probably suffering from something that requires medical help?
