I can't help myself

This is the story of a young lady who was sexually abused by her neighbour. she has decided to share her story to the world, and would need your help.
Don't forget to share with friends, and leave a comment. Let's read below:

I live in the suburb area of Agege, Lagos, Nigeria. I grew up there with my family in a two-room apartment popularly known as face-me -i -face you.  I am the third child of a family of 8, my name is Temitope.
There was this Igbo man living next to my apartment with his family who looks at me lustfully while i was a lot younger; age 8.   I remember he lured me into his apartment to watch a video game called 'mario' and did sleep with me, little did I know it wasn't a good thing because, I had no knowledge of Sex Education. I found myself going to his place occasssionally without telling my parents about it. When I found out the sex part was not a good thing I wasn't happy but I found it hard to stop myself. I continued till the age of 14 when I began to menstruate, my mother told me not to play with boy and told me sleeping with 1 would get me pregnant, I decided to quit sleeping with him.
I told him I would not be a sex object to him but instead he forced himself on me . This continued until we relocated, but it was too late to change myself, I became a sex addict, I don't know what to do, I can not control myself.
Please Help!!  What can I do?
