Russell Brand: Sex addiction is like having an eating disorder

Melbourne, Mar 24 (ANI): Controversial comedian Russell Brand has claimed that he has had treatment for his sex addiction and has it under control.

In fact, he said that sex addiction is much like having an eating disorder.

He underwent treatment at a rehab center in Los Angeles for his womanising ways, reports The Daily Telegraph.

He was quoted on celebrity site Showbiz Spy saying, "It's similar to having an eating disorder.

"When you are eating too much you don't go and get treatment and stop eating completely.

"Like food, you have to find a moderate way to keep having sex that isn't crazy and that's what I've done." (ANI)
