Do you become sexually or emotionally involved with people you dont know well Do you feel that you are not good enough when you are alone
A news study now shows that the number of people suffering from sex addiction is twice as high as previously thought.
Experts believe that apps like Tinder are causing the number of female sufferers to surge.
Experts say women were previously expected to keep their sex drives under control, however, a more permissive society means they no longer feel so judged for acting on their desires.
Experts at the University of Minnesota found 1 in 10 men and 1 in 14 women suffer distress because they cannot control their sexual feelings, urges and behaviour.
The study highlights the fact that they are missing out on social activities or neglecting their work and health in pursuit of sex.
