Abstract
Abstract This editorial presents some recent developments in the field of sexual health, including the acceptance of compulsive sexual behavior disorder as a diagnosis within the International Classification of Diseases, 11th Edition (ICD-11). Extensive quotes are presented to let the words speak for themselves. The journal Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity is affected by the changes in the professional treatment of problematic sexual behaviors. Ultimately, resolution of disagreements and conflicts represents awareness of the potential for bias as an increasingly diverse group applies their maps. The account concludes with an emphasis on optimal sexual health.
期刊介绍:
Now being understood and treated as a significant and widespread disorder, sexual addiction and compulsivity is an enormously complex problem that requires a multidisciplinary approach from psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, family therapists, pastoral counselors, and law enforcement personnel. The first and only journal devoted to topics pertaining to this growing illness, Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for research and clinical practice. As the source for information in this expanding new field, this journal will give practicing clinicians useful and innovative strategies for intervention and treatment from the necessary multidisciplinary perspective.
