    Hi Sisters,
    I had the unpleasant experience of witnessing a sex addict rage on Saturday. I looked it up on the internet and from what I learned if they dont feed the strong compulsion they can go into a rage and he did. I was wondering if any one else has witnessed a sex addict rage and if you know anything else about it. Thanks for sharing.

    Nap,

    Hi Ms lindy,
    It basically looks like rage, intense explosive anger. Lack of impulse control and large amounts of frustration. Loss of self control.

    Nap,
    Wow, it sounds really scary, be careful my dear. My SA rarely loses control until he is pushed to the point where he actually sees himself as he really is. Only on a few occasions have I seen that same thing, and then I know HIS reality is rearing it’s ugly head and he can’t face it.

    Hi Nap, I was with my counselor tonight and just returned. He mentioned to me the term narcisstic rage and asked me if I knew what it was. He doesn’t know my SA just preparing me for seeing him again. I am going to research it but perhaps that is a tip for anyone dealing with addicts.

    Hi Everyone – My SA experienced bouts of extreme anger/rage, and guess who got it. When I put my boundaries in place, he felt out of control. They have spent they’re entire life being in conrtol – rock the boat, and watch out.Actually, it was the emotional abuse, as well as the lieing, that finally put me over the edge.

    Don’t think I have experienced it myself, but I know a dear sweet woman who has gone through that last week.

    DO you have the links form anything you were reading? Was thinking they might be of use to her?

    Hi Starry,
    I dont have the links. I googled sex addict rage and there was quite a bit of info on it. Hope this helps your friend.

    NAP, so sorry that you had to go through that:( I don’t know much about those, my husband had withdrawal and anxiety and victimization, but haven’t seen him rage.
    Stay safe!

    I have seen the rages and they are not pretty..they can terrify.. but mostly what I see is a very,very,very low frustration level with outbursts of anger …like he might misplace something in the kitchen and he will just totally get so worked up..I might say what happened because it sounds so horrible and he’ll say” I can’t find the pepper”..omg..get a grip..it makes me see how immature and pathetic he is…
