According to the academic social network Academia, a third of all sex addicts are women—a problem we rarely hear about. This lack of awareness and conversation can contributes to a heavy stigma around addiction period and intense feelings of shame for those affected, and as we know when a problem is hidden in the shadows, it becomes difficult for those experiencing it to seek help or feel understood. Author, filmmaker, mental health strategist and recovering sex addict L.A. Wade is looking to change this by challenging preconceptions - supporting those on a similar path. She’s written two books—The Adventures of a Recovering Sex Addict Vol. 1: Married Men and F**k Boys and The Adventures of a Recovering Sex Addict Vol. 2: Friends with Benefits but Mostly Liabilities—and produced the short film, Thirsty AF: The Adventures of a Recovering Sex Addict.
We have L.A on the line. Let’s hang out!
