Hey,

I've looked at the list, but I don't see sexual addiction on it. Isn't that odd? What about pornography?

see this page ( http://www.jenniferschneider.com/articles/diagnos.html ) for an explanation of why sexual deviancy isn't included in the DSM guidelines.

[i found it with google, know nothing about the site owner, and am referencing it because it cites the DSM-IV directly.]

also note table 4, which gives a brief schema for determining whether something "counts" as an addictive behavior or not.... :)
