Understanding Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder

Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder, also known as hypersexuality, encompasses three categories: sexual fantasy, sexual urges, and sexual behaviors.

This consumption leads to the internalization of sexual fantasy, enabling individuals to access these fantasies without external stimuli.
