Sexual Sadism and Sexual Masochism Disorder

 

Causes of Sexual Sadism and Sexual Masochism Disorder

Sexual sadism and sexual masochism disorders appear as a result of suppression of the sexual fantasies that are considered inappropriate. When the sexual fantasies are suppressed at early ages, they are likely to get stronger in future. It is the suppression that later poses challenges to the persons suffering from sexual sadism and sexual masochism, as they cannot have a normal sexual arousal. If sexual fantasies are not addressed at the initial stages, a person’s urge for the fantasies multiply and they manifest themselves at later stages. When time comes for the fantasies to be addressed, a person finds themselves in a state of distress.

The disorder is also explained in terms of relationships between people’s behavior, hormones, and central nervous system. The disorder is connected with the reaction of particular hormones and further feelings of aggression.

Symptoms of Sexual Sadism and Sexual Masochism Disorder

Barlow and Durand state that the persons suffering from sexual sadism and sexual masochism disorder show symptoms that are almost similar. Sexual sadism disorder makes people experience sexual excitement when they inflict pain, suffering, and humiliation to the others. Sexual masochism disorder also allows a person to experience sexual excitement as a result of physical or psychological pain. They experience sexual excitement while receiving pain, suffering, or humiliation from the other people.

Best Practice Treatments for Sexual Sadism and Sexual Masochism Disorder

The treatment for sexual sadism and sexual masochism disorder mainly involves provision of psychotherapy to the persons suffering from this disorder. The best practices are adopted to keep a person free from deviant sexual acts. Psychotherapy is aimed at understanding the circumstances that lead a person to this behavior. It helps to understand victims’ past experiences that made them adopt deviant sexual behavior. Person’s negative perceptions about sexual encounters are corrected so that they could start experiencing normal sexual practices.

    I think such problems are a consequence of deep trauma. Oftentimes, childhood bullying can lead to these abnormalities. I study these complex cases and try to understand their nature. I Visit Website to get to know different problems of people. I think, thanks to the knowledge gained, I will be able to better help my patients.
