You are addicted to sex if you'll do anything to "get off"...even if it means it'll hurt your partner. You are addicted to sex if you cannot concentrate on other things in your life that has nothing to do with sex (family, friends, work, etc.) without sex creeping into your thoughts. You are addicted to sex if you have spent a lot of money on sex or materials/objects relating to sex instead of paying for things you "need". You are addicted to sex if sex interferes with getting normal things in your life completed. You are addicted to sex if you cannot "get off" without pornographic images or materials or certain objects. Above are "some" signs of sexual addiction. There are professionals out there that specialize in sex addiction. I'd seek them out.

If you have a partner, and they would be hurt by your actions, yet you continue to do them anyway, then you're addicted. This is the same for anything really, not just sex. If you choose the action (in this case of sex) without considering your significant other's feelings about it, then that is an addiction. If you do not have a partner, then the way to know that you are addicted is if sex interferes with your regular routine (i.e. work, social, fun activities, etc) How can you fix it? First you need to determine why the physical feeling of sex has a higher priority than other things. It may be that you are using the feeling of sex as a "medication" for other areas in your life that are painful. I do not know you, so my words are essentially, just guesses. Things that are pleasurable to people have the potential to become addictions if there are areas in an individual's life that are too painful to cope with directly. The first step to overcoming an addiction is recognizing that you [may] have one, so it seems that you're on the right track already. All the best to you.

An addiction is a physical reaction of the body to a particular substance. Nothing else. So-called 'sex addiction' does not exist. People can become sexually obsessed, but that is something totally different. People's sex drive varies. Some people can go weeks without sex; for others multiple orgasms a day are essential. The question is really how your sexual drive impacts on your life. If the impact is major and bad, then you need to do something about it; probably altering your life to minimise the impact. But you will not alter your sex drive.

The fact you're asking this question shows you're obviously concerned about how much you crave it and have it. That could be a good hint... There are many books out there which could help you, or you could go and talk to a therapist about it. You may find it'd help, probably a lot more than sex addiction classes (that's if they are as bad as those you see in films).

I don't think anything would need fixing!!

You want to have sex 24/7, and who cares if you want to have sex all the time. If you find the right person you two could have a really really good time together doing what you both love to do (EACH OTHER)….

If you continue to do these acts even though you are feeling guilty to it means you are addicted to sex. The best way to avoid this thing is to be with your freinds who are not much interested in these things. Dont be alone for long time so that it gets in heads and overcome your resistance to it.
