If you are addicted to sex, it is common to put these obligations on the backburner. This can lead to problems in your personal and financial life, which can result in additional struggles.
Giving up other activities due to a preoccupation with sex. This could mean everything from a student who is struggling to keep up in school to somebody who stops playing sports because of their addiction. Just the same as a drug or alcohol addiction, those who are addicted to sex can’t get this out of their mind. This leads them to give up activities that they previously enjoyed.
Spending a large amount of time on sexual related activities. This can include but is not limited to searching for partners, browsing pornographic websites, and reading pornographic magazines. While most people have the urge to do these things from time to time, especially searching for a partner, some do so with nothing more than sex on their mind.
Preoccupation with everything related to sex. Do you find yourself thinking about sex throughout the day, even when your mind should be occupied with something else? If so, you may be addicted. This is particularly true if you are unable to control your thoughts, which can often times lead to some type of sexual activity.

Gambling addiciton:
Is often described as being a silent addiction. However, it can cause a wide variety of signs and symptoms that primarily manifest as behavioral changes. Problem gamblers often appear preoccupied with gambling by reliving past gambling experiences or planning future ones. Increased risk-taking, such as larger bets or wagers, can also be a sign of addiction. A compulsive gambler may also resort to gambling in order to cope with personal problems or stresses. Additionally, individuals may lie in an effort to hide the extent of their problem and often jeopardize important relationships and opportunities because of gambling. In some cases, individuals may have an increased likelihood of committing crimes such as theft—typically, in an effort to generate more money to gamble. When attempting to cut back on gambling, individuals may experience signs of withdrawal, such as depression, insomnia, cravings, anxiety, and irritability.
