Even though parents may seem like dinosaurs when you get to your teenage years, your parents have been there before. If you're a teen, talking to a parent you feel comfortable with can, if not solve your problem, at least help you to feel more comfortable and normal. Thinking about sex is a common struggle for teenagers and talking about it can help. Talk to other family members. If you do not wish to speak with your parents, consider talking to an older sibling or a cousin. They might be able to relate to you better since they're closer in age. As terrifying as this may sound, it is one of the most powerful and effective approaches. If you are lucky enough to know someone who is not judgmental and will understand and appreciate your goal, talk to them about how you are doing. Having a frank conversation when you feel compelled to think or act in ways you would rather not can be a reassuring source on ongoing support. If you're struggling with sexual urges as a part of your commitment to a particular faith, get help from your pastor or another religious leader. This is a common issue and you shouldn't feel embarrassed to bring it up. They have heard this and much more before, and can help you keep your challenges in perspective. This could include psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, or and other types of therapists. Some specialists charge a fee, of course, but look to see if your insurance covers all or part of your visits. If you're a student or have comprehensive workplace benefits, you may be able to consult a specialist at little or no cost. Whether you pay or not, your visit and specific concerns will be kept confidential, and your therapist can explain confidentiality further with you. Knowing how to address any obsessive thought, sexual or otherwise, is something they can help you learn to deal with. There is also much less of a stigma today to speaking with therapists, and you might be surprise about the people who regularly see a specialist. So, you shouldn't hesitate for social reasons about visiting one. If you suspect your overwhelming thoughts may be a kind of sexual addiction, seek help from a licensed sex therapist and treat those symptoms as well. Don't let an obsession turn into destructive or dangerous behavior.

Summary: Talk to a trusted family member. Tell a trusted friend about your problem. Talk to a religious advisor or counselor. Consult a therapist or guidance counselor.

A child with RAD will rarely, if ever, seek comfort when under stress. They are also unlikely to respond when comforted. Since they did not form a normal attachment to a caregiver when they were younger, they will not seek comfort or affection in the way that most children would. For instance, if they fall off of their bicycle, they might show emotion, but they are unlikely to run to a caregiver to soothe them. They have a tendency to deal with their pain on their own. In some cases, they may show emotional responses that are inappropriate or excessive for a situation. For example, a child that stubs his toe may cry hysterically for longer than would be usual. Children with RAD will often respond with very little emotion or affect to others. Though most children are socialized to laugh and smile based on the people and circumstances around them, children with RAD will typically display a very flat or neutral disposition. For instance, a child with RAD might receive a gift at a birthday party and not crack a smile. But a child without RAD might smile or yell with excitement. RAD diagnosis is not related to self-harm, impulsive or aggressive behavior or other harmful behaviors. Likewise, lying, stealing, destruction of property, gorging of food or inappropriate sexual behavior are also not considered symptoms of this disorder. There is a lot of misinformation about RAD online, but none of the aforementioned behaviors are considered relevant to the diagnosis.

Summary: Evaluate if they are unresponsive in times of distress. Assess any lack of emotion in social settings. Be cautious about jumping to conclusions based on a child acting out.

Using your phone will also help you ignore almost anyone. There are a few things you can do to ignore someone with your phone. First, you can just use the phone to look busy whenever you see that person. Talk to someone else on the phone, laughing wildly, or look engrossed in an intense text-message exchange with someone you actually want to talk to. Change your phone number so the person can't call or text you. Block that person's number from your phone so you can't receive messages from them. Set an alarm on your phone to ring when you know you're near that person, so you can pick it up and pretend to be talking to someone. Invest in some headphones, and wear them at all times when you're alone, even if you're not listening to music. When you see that person, blast your music to deafening volumes and bounce your head to the beat, so you look completely absorbed in your tunes, with absolutely no time to waste on the person you're trying to ignore. If you want to be really annoying, you can even close your eyes and sing along to the music, giving the person you're ignoring almost no chance to talk to you. Ignoring someone online is even easier than ignoring them in person because you don't have to physically avoid them. To ignore someone online, just make sure to avoid any of that person's emails, Facebook posts or messages, Twitter feeds, or any other attempts to contact you online. Block that person from any of your social networks. Make sure he has no way of reaching out to you online. Change your email address and other usernames if you have to. That person should have no way of contacting you online.
Summary: Use your phone. Play music. Ignore someone online.
