Interpretation
Answering "yes" on 1-3 questions indicates you may have a problem. It is strongly recommended that you talk with a trusted friend and then seek the help of a qualified counselor to determine the nature of your struggle.
More than 3 positive answers is an indication of a more serious problem and you are encouraged to seek the help of a Christian counselor or Christ-centered recovery ministry specializing in sexual addiction recovery and healing of sexual brokenness.
