Hypersexuality Is Survival Disguised as Pleasure

Hypersexuality Is Survival Disguised as Pleasure

Published 1 month ago
Description
Hypersexuality following sexual trauma is presented as a survival response rather than a lack of boundaries. The behavior stems from the brain’s need for predictability and control after experiences of fear and powerlessness, using familiarity to reduce perceived danger. By choosing intimacy, survivors may be attempting to manage threats and calm their internal alarm system. This coping mechanism reflects psychological adaptation and resilience, underscoring the importance of self-compassion rather than self-blame.
