Curious if you may have an issue with sex addiction, including pornography?

If you answer “Yes” to 2 or more of these questions, it is recommended you speak with a trained therapist to explore your responses:

The "PATHOS" Questionnaire:

  • (Preoccupied) Do you often find yourself preoccupied with sexual thoughts?
  • (Ashamed) Do you hide some of your sexual behavior from others?
  • (Treatment) Have you ever sought help for sexual behavior you did not like?
  • (Hurt others) Has anyone been hurt emotionally because of your sexual behavior?
  • (Out of control) Do you feel controlled by your sexual desire?
  • (Sad) When you have sex, do you feel depressed afterwards?
