David Duchovny In Rehab For Sex Addiction
Actor David Duchovny, of X Files fame, has reportedly entered a treatment center to receive help for his sex addiction:
“I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction,” the actor says in an exclusive statement. “I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family.”
And I say good for him, for recognizing that he has a problem and for taking steps to deal with it. What he needs is privacy and our prayers, not stupid jokes that just spread misunderstandings about what he is dealing with. Some of the articles and comments I’ve seen on other sites really make me sick. Would people be making jokes if it came out that he was struggling with alcohol addiction, or drug addiction? It is imperative that anyone dealing with any sort of addiction, no matter what it is, recognize the warning signs and be willing to seek help.
Our thoughts and prayers are with David and his family.

Well yes, they would.
Not here though.
It still makes me wonder if this is life imitating art, or vise versa. It never sat well with me that Mulder was into 900-numbers either, he seemed too smart for that, even if he was the loneliest man in the FBI.
Hope that he gets well and also stops doing work that feeds his weaknesses. Ditto on the prayers!

Is Californication based on his real life? That show kind of sucks. but not as hard as Secret Diary of a Call Girl.

I send my love to him and his family. My husband has had a sex addiction problem and we are rebuilidng our relationship with the help of a therapist. We also we attended an Intimacy Retreat learning about Tantric Sex which has helped immensely.
