This is an interesting question that is not well understood, but most current implications are in the dopaminergic-mesolimbic pathway (in the ventral tegmentum and nucleus accumbens). There are high implications of use by opiates, psychostimulants, alcohol, and cannabinoids modifying this pathway by increasing firing of the pathway, or decreasing normal tonic inhibition. Animals will self-administer amphetamines and dopamine into the nucleus accumbens in order to facilitate this dependence

A chemical is released from your brain after any form of sex which does two things. It is called a pleasure source as it makes you feel happy and glow and it also makes you sleepy as the natural reaction to sex is sleep. This is why a lot of ladies get a bit annoyed with their partners who drop off to sleep as soon as they have finished. This mainly affects males. Sorry I can't remember the name of the chemical.I used to know it but I can't bring it to mind at the moment.

The simple answer to your question is "yes". The first link explains what these chemicals are and the second may help if you feel you have an addiction. All the best.

google "endorphin" or "endomporhine". might be related to what you're experiencing, but personally, I can't be bothered to read all the stuff.
