Russell Brand recently compared his sex addiction to an eating disorder. In the past Russell has talked about his voracious appetite for women. Sometimes wanting several a women a day. But he’s come clean about his fast-paced lifestyle of reckless sex, copious amounts of drugs and booze and admits it’s unhealthy, and if he really should be remedied if he wants to find “true happiness.”

The Sun quotes him as 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. If I’m to find any true happiness I have to devote myself to something bigger than my own ego. I’m really getting tired of materialism. I don’t reckon I’ve got more than two or three years. I’ve burned out drugs. I’m burning out sex. I don’t even know what I’m doing yet. I’m not ready. I’ve got to be in a position where they can’t go, ‘Didn’t he f**k* that stripper? Didn’t he go to that lap-dancing club? There can’t be any of that around. That’s all got to go – until I’m in a position where I can say, ‘Look I’m celibate, I’m a vegan. All I do is meditate, come out and do stand-up and make films.’”

Why is it always the crazies who go completely straight? It’s almost like the totally clean and sober people you gotta watch out for more than the ones who casually use drugs and drink.
