I hear you. It takes a lot of courage to ask a question like this, and it shows that you are willing to take a closer look at your behavior and how it affects your life. From a Buddhist perspective, sex itself is not inherently good or bad - it is the intention behind our actions that matters. If sex is approached with mindfulness and compassion, it can be a beautiful expression of intimacy and connection. However, if we engage in sex to escape from difficult emotions or to seek validation, it can become problematic. From a psychological perspective, it's important to consider whether your sexual behavior is causing distress or interfering with your daily functioning. If you are experiencing negative consequences such as shame, guilt, or relationship problems related to your sexual behavior, it may be worth exploring why this is happening and whether changes need to be made. In terms of coaching advice, I would suggest taking some time to reflect on your intentions and values around sex. What do you hope to gain from sexual activity, and how does it align with your overall goals and values? If you notice that your behavior is not aligned with your values or is causing negative consequences, it may be worth seeking support from a therapist or coach to help you make changes.

Is something weighing on you, too?
