Sexual Addiction Disease?

It's been revealed that President Ford said Bill Clinton is a sex addict who needs to be treated for it. Is it a disease, like the current wisdom(?) says of addiction to alcohol, drugs, gambling, overeating, undereating, porno, internet, cluttering and anything else we do to dangerous excess? (I seriously need to join clutterers Anonymous) The Sex Addicts Anonymous group, patterned after AA's 12 step program, says it is. I was surprised that Dr. Phil appears not to believe it and he's ready to fight with any therapist who uses that diagnosis as an excuse for not keeping your pants on.

  1. All those things seem to share the common denominator of poor impulse control. I know that shrink types tend to cluster some of those problems under "disorders of self-regulation." I'm sure there's a biochemical element to all of those problems, but are some people receiving the wrong message; i.e. one of absolution?

    Or is worry about denial of responsibility of one's self a religous-type opinion? The good thing about calling something like skirt-chasing a disease is that it makes it less shameful and even permissible to examine the behavior apart from one's self-worth, and seek help to correct it. I don't know what Dr. Phil is bitching about, because even the 12-step programs teach people to humble themselves and acknowledge that they will need help to do better.
