    Afraid for my daughter
    My 21 year old daughter is so preoccupied by sex that it is adversely affecting her life. What biological or neurotramitter causes could be contributing to this? What tests should she have done? If it is too high of a tetosterone level, how is it reduced?

    She is also into being choked and suffocated (not in a sexual setting). She claims it calms her down. How do I talk to her about this? How can I help her before she gets killed or seriously hurt?

    Thank you

    It could be that she is addicted to sex much like people get addicted to other behaviors and chemicals such as alcohol, drugs, throwing up, on and on. It is a problem of the times in America.

    Her whole world has narrowed to these sexual behaviors and getting her kicks keeps getting harder to find.

    Perhaps, if you and she have a good relationship, you both can go to a therapist and talk about her having a sexual addiction and if it would be beneficial for her to go to a 12 Step Program for Sexual Addicts.

    Best wishes to both of you,

    I would suggest that you take her to see a psychologist as quickly as you can. It may be that she needs to be referred to a psychiatrist for medication or a treatment program.

    The behaviors that she is exhibiting are unhealthy in the extreme and potentially life threatening. Not to mention the threat to her mental and emotional health.

    I don't think that you can do this on your own. She needs professional help.
