Suffering From BDSM, Submissive Nature. How To Get Rid Of This Obsession?
Hi. I am 30 yr old male and my question is about BDSM. I consider myself a submissive. I believe I think too much i about BDSM and spend lots of time looking over bdsm photos over net. I also try to chat a lot about Femdom (try some online roleplays) and I feel anxious if I dont get anyone to chat with. I want to know if this is normal or not and if its not, are there methods to come our of this obsession?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Though sexual fantasies are fairly common among males, whenever a particular fantasy or a deviant sexual behaviour becomes predominant and takes precedance over normally accepted sexual behaviour, then it becomes a Sexual Perversion. From your description, it appears that you are having a Masochistic Sexual Perversion. Since this is causing you distress and because there is a possibility that this can affect your future married / sexual life, I think it's better to seek help for it. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for a detailed psychological assessment and further management. There are treatment methods which will involve counselling and psychotherapy, sometimes medication, which will help you overcome this problem.
Wish you all the best.
