A nymphomaniac is a woman suffering from nymphomania - a manifestation of hypersexual syndrome. Women suffering from this disease have an obsessive desire to get sexual satisfaction, an orgasm that can not be achieved nevertheless, despite the sometimes huge number of sexual acts (often with different partners). The name of the disease is derived from the Greek word “nymph”: these are mythical creatures that looked like beautiful women and lived in the forests, where men were lured for sexual comforts.
Men left them exhausted, if they left at all. The people call this disease "uterine rabies", its causes are various diseases of the central nervous system. For example, a nymphomaniac is a woman who has reached the manic stage of MDP
(manic-depressive psychosis). Or she has an organic brain lesion, or endocrine pathology. However, the most common cause of nymphomania, in particular in young women, is the manifestation of various
neuroses. Neurosis is a state of functional imbalance and is successfully treated by psychotherapy.
What is dangerous nymphomania?
There is a lack of simplicity in the relations of subjects such as man and woman. When mental deviation interferes with them, it becomes even more difficult. A nymphomaniac is a woman who can bring hypersexuality to exhaustion: she develops asthenia, weakness, and interest in life can disappear. As a rule, this is a temporary phenomenon and it does not pose a serious threat to life, but this should not be left to chance. An unwanted pregnancy, which often leads to illegible sex, can also become a serious problem. People with whom a woman has a connection, she does not always know. Therefore, there is a risk that the child will also never know who his father is.
If the nymphomaniac is a rapidly developing young girl with a strong sexual constitution, then it can even go to incest. Most often this happens in families where the father or stepfather is the carrier of the schizophrenic gene.
How is nymphomania treated?
The treatment of "uterine rabies" lends itself very poorly. However, there is good news: real nymphomania is a very rare phenomenon. Out of 2500 women, only one will not have an imaginary deviation, but a serious problem. To reduce sexual desire, a woman is prescribed special drugs that treat a deviation at the level of physiology, prescribe a strict diet. The diet excludes any aphrodisiacs - spicy dishes, chocolate, seafood and alcohol. Psychotherapists cope with imaginary nymphomania - as a rule, successfully. A woman needs psychotherapeutic sessions, during which she finds out what prevents getting sexual satisfaction from contact with a man. The reason for this often becomes some psychological barriers, the beginning of which could have been laid in childhood or adolescence. Women with this disorder often have to regret their deeds, and therefore they need the help of a psychotherapist. It is important to remember that a woman, as a rule, is not to blame for the fact that she has such a problem. This is a serious deviation requiring the supervision of doctors of different profiles.
