Posted by Roger on September 12, 2005, 3:05 am I'm 40 and have been flashing since about age 15. I got very good at it and had many great reactions, mostly because I'm fit and good-looking. We never discussed it openly, but I think my wife knew and this led to friction. When I became separated about two years ago I was initially concerned that my exhibitionism would get out of control living by myself. Indeed, I flashed some new neighbors the day I moved into my apartment. But due to my depression over the separation, my doctor put me on the antidepressant Lexapro, which was brand new at the time. I had never taken any of these kind of drugs before. It worked great to ward off depression and it helped me with my problem of letting frustration over little things quickly escalate into ridiculous rage. And, most unexpectedly, my desire to flash went away almost completely overnight. All the "logical" thoughts I used to have whenever I was trying not to flash—they were never were strong enough to stop me. Now, I could suddenly think rationally about it and every time a flashing opportunity came up, I could now easily talk myself out of it. My sexual fantasies still often revolve around exhibitionism, but I haven't acted on them in over a year. As another side benefit, my orgasms are much stronger! I even have a mini-orgasm every time I urinate. I would take it just for this! In fact, I try to time it so that I take the pill an hour before sex or masturbation. I used to live in constant fear of ruining my life with flashing. It is wonderful to have that burden lifted. If you are as desperate as I was, ask your doctor to let you try Lexapro. If it works for others like it did for me this might be the miracle cure for exhibitionism. Good luck. Link: Post a response
