Sexual addiction is a serious problem in which one engages in persistent and escalating patterns of sexual behavior despite increasing negative consequences to one's self or others. Like other addictions, these behaviors continue despite sincere and persistent efforts to stop. Individuals complaining of sexual addiction presented with a very high percentage of comorbid axis I and II disorders, particularly affective, anxiety, and substance use disorders. Personality traits highly relate to problematic sexual attitudes and behaviors, making a person more prone to impulsivity and highly susceptible to engage in sexual behavior. Aim of the work This study focused on one co-morbidity with sexual addiction. It was to compare the sexual addiction in patients with bipolar disorder in euthymic stage and its relation to healthy controls. It also discussed the relationship between sexual addiction and personality traits
