for sexual content.
Trying to see something you are not supposed to see
by purposely looking down women's blouses
or up their skirts with or without use of photography
or video cameras or other creative spying devices
such as mirrors.
Secretly watching or observing other people
with or without use of binoculars or telescopes
( Window Peeping ) ( Creative Peeping ).
Secretly photographing or video taping people
undressing, dressing, showering, bathing or having sex
in your own personal residence or other places.
- Other Undesirable Behaviors:
Secrecy, hiding, covering up, sneaking, lying, dishonesty,
rationalization, justification & entitlement often run
with sex, love & romance addiction or co-sex addiction.
Many recovering sex addicts also consider
these types of character defects or short comings
to be bottom line behavior.
- Triggers:
Triggers are certain people, behaviors, objects, images,
places, thoughts, feelings, activities or things that cause
sex, love & romance addicts to unconsciously go into a
trance like state of being & begin to act out in their
addiction utilizing their own preferred personal bottom line
behaviors. Some sex addicts consider H.A.L.T. Hungry,
Angry, Lonely, Tired, unstructured time or being alone
major triggers.
Trigger recognition & avoidance at any & all cost
is vitally important in the beginning of the recovery
process.
