Sexual compulsion is a mental condition which sees individuals lacking control of their own sexual behavior. People with sexual compulsion feel compelled to have sex often, especially under specific conditions or when they’re exposed to certain stimuli.
Some people use the terms sexual compulsion and sex addiction interchangeably. However, psychiatrists agree that people cannot be addicted to sex in the same way they can alcohol or narcotics, so sexual compulsion is a more accurate term for the condition.
