A Nice Review F. D. GARCIA AND F. THIBAUT, 2010 Kraft-Ebbing (2) described the first case of abnormally increased sexual desire in Western Europe, which he named hyperesthesia sexual. Many years later, Kinsey and colleagues (3) developed the concept of total sexual outlet (TSO), which corresponded to the total number of orgasms achieved by any combination of sexual outlets (e.g., masturbation, sexual inter- course, oral sex) per week. These authors reported that only 7.6% of American males (younger than 30 years of age) reported a mean total sexual outlet per week above seven for at least five years. Considering these data and other confirmatory studies, Kafka et al. (4) proposed that hypersexual behavior could be characterized by TSOs of at least seven times per week.

Kraft-Ebbing 1886 Case Study For three years, farmer D. a universally respected married, aged thirty five, had manifest states of sexual excitement with increasing frequency and severity, which during the past year had become true paroxysms of satyriasis. It was impossible to discover heredity or other organic causes. D. was compelled at times to perform the sex act from ten to fifteen times in a twenty-four hour period without deriving any feelings of satisfaction.

Continued Gradually he developed a condition of general nervous irritability with increased emotional irritability to the extent of pathological outbreaks of anger and impulse to over indulge in alcohol D. himself thought that he must have had moments in which he no longer had control of his senses.

History Origen (185)- Not fond of sex even in marriage Benjamin Rush (1745-1813)- masturbation caused TB, epilepsy, and loss of memory Sylvester Graham (1794-1853) developed a dietary theory attached to chastity and venereal excess. Graham Crackers J.H. Kellogg (1852 - 1943)- a bland diet of 2 meals a day would decrease sexual urges; advocated circumcision, used sutures and chemicals to decrease arousal in males and females. P. Carnes (19xx-) major modern voice of sex addiction model

Religious Views on Sex Buddhism has few restrictions other than monks and nuns. Extramarital sex is acceptable if both people love each other. Hinduism believes that sex can be a form of worship in which couples surrender their ego for pleasure, children and enlightenment. Christianity is heavily influenced by Augustinian dualism and the belief that sex is bad. Augustine remained celibate after his conversion to Christianity. Aquinas proposed Natural Law. Islam obtains its teachings of sexuality from the Quran and religious leaders. Sex is for marriage between a man and woman. Sodomy us forbidden as is homosexuality and premarital sex. Judaism does not view sex as intrinsically dirty or bad. Orthodox Jews follow rules around cleanliness and honoring G-d but view sex like are drives where intent influences goodness or badness.

Victorian Era Women were institutionalized for nymphomania if they were raped, had affairs or had children outside of marriage. Women with nymphomania with enlarged clitoris underwent treatment that could also include clitorectomies or clitoral massage. Masturbation was a treatment provided by physicians to female patients until the invention of the vibrator.

Freud The sexual instincts are remarkable for their placidity, for the facility with which they can change their aim for the ease with which they can substitute one form of gratification for another (Freud 1938).

Wilhelm Reich It is not just to fuck not the embrace itself, not the intercourse. It is the real emotional experience of loss of your ego, of your whole spiritual self (2011). Founder of Orgonomy

The Emergence of Sexual Addiction ''For one, you first have to determine the limits of ordinary sexuality - that's not an easy matter. The boundaries are blurry. Where does normal lechery end and a sexual problem begin?' Dr. Robert Spinzter Samuel Tesset 1760 Benjamin Rush Krafft-Ebing Sigmund Freud Wilhelm Reich Patrick Carnes John Money Mark Swartz

DSM-5 Key changes to the manual will include removal of the multiaxial system used in the DSM-IV; the inclusion of binge eating, hoarding, and excoriation (skin-picking) disorders in Section 2 for "categorical diagnoses"; and the addition of attenuated psychosis syndrome, non suicidal self-injury, and Internet use gaming disorder in Section 3, for those conditions deemed to require further research.

Food, sexual behaviors and pathological gambling can be associated with this pathological pursuit of rewards.
